Off Grid Project
Today We are joined by Gary Collins of the Primal Power Method. This time Gary stops by to talk about his off grid project. Gary decided that to live a simpler life he had to leave California and build an Off grid house.
We get to hear about how Gary was able to find his land. Why asking always pays off. We learn the pros and cons of hiring a Green contactor. Gary used Faswall brick for his construction and talks about how it is working with it.
Gary and I discuss the similarities and differences of our two builds. Gary being 100% off grid and me being simi off grid. We talk about septic tank vs composting toilet.
We have a good chat about off grid internet solutions. Discussing what we both are doing. I also mention a technology using the now abandoned Analog TV signals. This is called white space and is slowly growing. It could be the best future solution for rural areas.
We hear about some issues Gary had with intruders. Gary Shares some of his off grid project security methods. I know many of us are concerned about security and he has some good ideas.
Gary mentions a new book detailing the process to avoid his mistakes. As soon as it is available I’ll let youse guys know.
Also I’m having Gary Back later this month to talk about advanced paleo questions if you have one let me know.
