Pssst. An EMP “event” that fries our power grid will also toast the circuitry in your little solar array. Not that getting off the grid is a bad thing if you do it for rational reasons, you aren’t going to do it with that tiny little array.
Obama Blackouts has a certain Freudian dogwhistle ring to it. Marketing genius.
Never experienced one, unlike the CA brownouts when W. Bush’s Enron buddies were running things.
Ummm, admittedly, I’m not an engineer or anything close of that nature but even I know that the solar generator shown will provide for a few hours worth of power to a few small appliances. It would NOT “get you off the grid.” A very worthy endeavour but if you’re really interested in seeing how that kind of energy independence can be implemented, look to Germany.
Well, clearly the generator, which I assume runs of gas or diesel based on the size, supplies the solar panel with the power it needs to operate. Because why else would you need a generator? Duh!
You have to remember these people are wired to believe anything bad about a black man in the white house. Reality be damned.
