Solar or Generator? I have a cabin in the woods with no electricity...what are some options?
Question:
Answer:
generator would most likely be best if you are not there all the time. the solar power is an expensive start up, and basically runs on batteries. you can also consider wind power, and if there is a stream near by, hydro.
If you use the batteries to light the house at night, you can also use the generator to recharge those batteries, so you are not running the noisy generator at night.
I would just get a generator, do you just stay out there once in awhile for hunting and such or do you live there? Cuz if you are only there every so often, a generator would be good. Don't know how good solar would be if there isn't much light in the woods. Dad has a generator at his hunting camp in the woods and that works wonderfully.
