Are you thirsty for more? How ‘bout this twist on solar power?

Talk about straight from the tap. What will they think up next? A car that generates its own Hydrogen Fuel?

Just thinkin’

A combination of this thread and a small drop in prices got me to purchase a couple 100w Renology panels off of Amazon a few months sooner than planned. For some reason they were going to charge me shipping for one panel, but shipping two panels was free. I also ordered a couple panels off of eBay, but that transaction may or may not go through (way cheap and no seller feedback). PayPal and eBay seller protections are about the only reasons I gave it a shot.
We’ll see how much power I can get this summer from them.

The water producing panels would be a big seller on the planet Arrakis.

  Exactly what I was thinking; also wondering about an alternative to desalination plants.   Though the way they're depleting the Ogallalah Aquifer for irrigating across the Great Plains, some folks in Kansas have had their wells run dry.  Amazing--thx for sharing.

Last year there was a News Bite on TV that showed a company setting up a Water Capturing device at the LA Coliseum, I believe.

I don’t recall the power source, but they claimed to have achieved similar results of capturing about 5 litres of water from the air in one day. Larger arrays could be set up for apartment complexes perhaps.

You won’t be reviving your lawn with it but perhaps a small garden and drinking water would be feasible.

The 100W & 180W  Grape Solar Panels went on Sale at Home Depot.  We picked some up last time when it was 60% off.
