DIY Power Cart For Outdoor Work Or Emergency Power

[@solarcabin]

This is a DIY Power Cart used for powering outdoor tools and can be used for emergency power in a blackout. This is a simple and affordable system anyone can set up in an hour with no electrical experience.

My cart is already ‘power ready’. Makes life so much easier for us older folks.

Lamar, that’s a heck of a set up. Great Mobil power supply. Have a good one.

Tonka and I have found a nice pet-friendly assisted-living facility but I haven't given up the idea of homesteading.

[@solarcabin]

Sounds good and do what is best for you Ron. Have a great summer friend!

I started watching your videos 10-yrs ago. Since then I moved to the South from New England and live completely off grid. Much appreciated for your early years...really helped me make the decision to go off grid. I've been very happy with the choice and am using a lot of your ideas. Ty

[@solarcabin]

Right on friend!

[@CynthiaWithLove]

You are a gem, thank you❤

[@user-McGiver]

you've got the right idea!... I use a bike trailer [for kids] that carries a power station [2000w/h] a 200w foldable solar panel, and on top of it is installed a 200w vertical wind turbine, I can pull it with my bike, or use the 3rd wheel and push it like a stroller, it also carries my 40lt freezer and plenty of gear, it's what I use for camping, and also my ''get the f out of Dodge'' vehicle... all tires are solid, and between my front and back racks and bags on my bike and center too, and the trailer/energy station, I'm all covered...

[@solarcabin]

I have one of those bike trailers too and use it for charging.

Yeah all electric yard tools. Now your talking I don't know if that inverter will run my Worx 18 inch chainsaw. I usually pop a 20 amp breaker if the saw sits on the log before turning on the saw. So I know the start up current is pretty high. 73

Nice job and very handy.73

[@reddawn5297]

I've noticed those lithium batteries been dropping down in price quite a bit which is nice to see.

If you fit a slow start (surge control) component in series with power tools, you can run them from a smaller generator.

Good video

[@pennynickels5216]

Love it!💛😊

[@SundanceSerenityHideaway]

Nice set up!

[@solarcabin]

Cover for the power cart! Some people asked about covering the power cart I designed and I found this cover on Amazon that fits the dimensions for the Bilt Hard 880 pound garden cart and appears to be well made. amzn.to/49BhYQ5

[@utubemouse]

Just what I was wondering about!

[@utubemouse]

Would you only use this for storage or emerge rain cover or would it be ok (not overheating) to run the battery and inverter under it all the time?

[@smorgan2799]

What about an emp? How would you protect your equipment?

[@kurtzxcvb3481]

Do you have a link for the battery? Couldn't find it in the list in the description
