"FINALLY REVEALED: The secrets to making your own solar and wind power for less than $200."
“Hi, my name is xxxxx and I'm going to help YOU reduce your power bill by 80% or even eliminate it completely.

We became overwhelmed with posting new content on a variety of platforms, so we have discontinued the Wordpress blog for our book.
We are now the new owners of Otherpower, and have switched it to a blog format now. At this time, user comments are still disabled, but we will be enabling them in the near future.
To keep track of everything that's going on with updates to our book, corrections, errata, and our classes, just keep checking in here at Otherpower, catch our RSS feed, and follow us on both Facebook and Youtube.
Too many pictures to share so I'm going to post this in parts. Check out parts 2 and 3 at left.
