Homesteading

Yeah good on Colorado but I suspect the fascist and authoritarian right wing supreme court will torpedo it

Off-Grid energy?

This is possible these days but typically more expensive than many figure at first.

To be completely off grid a home needs a solar + battery system. Solar panels will last for 25 to 30 years depending on warranty.

For off grid regarding inverters: microinverters > string inverter

As far as batteries there are old school deep cycle lead based batteries. These are the least expensive way to go. The batteries need to be babied and don't last as long as newer battery technology. They last 5-10 years.

There is newer battery tech using Lithium Ion (like phones and EV) things like Tesla's PowerWall and a few other brands out there. There is a price premium for these batteries but they come with monitoring software for a complete integrated energy system you can see the energy flow of your home on your smart phone. These last 10 to 15 years.

I would guess that your current kwh rate for electricity is very low. Buying a solar+battery system is like pre-paying for electricity for many years ahead of time.

If you want any more info feel free to PM me.

I don't think Colorado watched the leaked j6 videos. I bet the SC did tho.

I have a solid set of skills for homesteading, adding to that is my goal.

Always enjoyable when an Atheist claims the moral high ground and throws shade.

Here is an AMA I came across awhile back from a homesteader that works to support his hobby. Some neat info in the comments about the loan side of it and his daily routine.

There's also a homestead subreddit and discord. I'm very jealous of people that can detach or at least keep modern civilization at arms length

And who ever said I was an atheist? I just don't believe in yours.

Fair enough, that's what I get for including the word 'ever'

Anyway, eggs.

I got homesteaded eggs a couple times and there was shit on them. The backyard farmer was like, 'Oh, my autistic daughter doesn't wash them well enough'.

I was like, but, there's shit on them.
