Build a solar or wind propelled generator?
I want to know how to make a solar or wind propelled generator? First if i can make a solar and wind propelled generator and combine them to work at the same time. The solar panel can be around 12 volts. I just want to do this as a home project. I don't want extreme power out of this. I am young but have a lot of experience with building electronics so keep it simple enough for me to do it.

well i dont know much but i hope this will help, i whould imagine for the wind power you whould need the light propeler to be somehow conected to a magnetic generater. and for the solar power, well i dont know much about that but i hope to find out soon.

These are interesting projects. The solar panel will be the simplest 12 volt battery charging solar panels are off-the-shelf at your local Harbor Freight store. mounting them is simply a matter of knowing which way is South. Wind generators are more difficult because you have to decide size, type, location, machine etc. You will probably start with a car generator but you have to calculate how large a mill will be required and how are you going to handle over speed when the wind becomes too strong. Although these are not insurmountable considerations they must be dealt with. Start be visiting existing installations and see how they have worked out these issues.
