Jenny, No disrespect intended here, but I don't get it. Why would you want to be off the grid, unless you live on a mountain top where you can't get electricity, only to trade one energy source, electricity, for another energy source propane.
How can that be self sufficient?
It would cost me a pant load to switch over to propane heat, propane water, cooking. Not to mention, how would I power my centeral air? I would have to have an engine powered air compressor, welder, table saw, planner. I don't want to live like the amish.
I wouldn't live long enough to recover the difference in energy cost, especially now that propane prices are jumping all over. Not to mention the cost of batteries and solar panels.
Just don't get it. I have a masters in Physics and Math. Physics is all about energy. I just don't see how the numbers add up, especially when the best golf cart batteries may last 10 years, depending on how many times they are recharged, and they will cost a pant load to replace. I would need a pole barn full of batteries to meet my demands.
