Assuming the solar panels are not connected to the power grid, and assuming an average number of miles traveled per year (say 12,000), and without discussing battery, motor, range or other issues &#8211; but assuming it&#8217;s 100% electric (not a hybrid), and assuming plenty of sun location, how many watts of installed solar capacity is needed to power the car (visualize a pratical car like the EV1 &#8211; not like the &#8220;cars&#8221; they have in the World Solar Challenge race) w/o any other power source? Err on the side of a few too many watts rather than not enough.</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by kerry k</i><br/>Your car would not be big enough, and the DMV where you live would no doubt say NO to a contraption like that on the road. You are talking about, if I read your question correctly, a car that is solely powered by photo electric cells. If that is what you have in mind, then you are talking about at least 37 thousand watts, which would give you about 50 horse power. Remember, it takes 740 watts of electricity to equal 1 horse power. I don&#8217;t think you can get that many panels on a small car. Your best bet is a good battery bank, and an at home power source to recharge the batteries. What you might want to consider is a fuel cell powered electric vehicle. </p>

<p>The systematic suppression of alternative energy exposed! &#8220;History records that the money changers have used every form﻿ of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their control over governments by controlling money and it&#8217;s issuance.&#8221; &#8212; James Madison The first person to distill gasoline from crude oil was Benjamin Sillman Jr., a chemist from the prestigious Yale University, who is credited with developing much of the Oil industry. Sillman, who later became a professor of chemistry at Yale was also a member of the Skull and Bones Fraternity. Secret Societies like Skull and Bones are breeding grounds for the concentration of wealth and power. They represent an Ivy League consolidation of bankers, politicians, intelligence agents, CEOs, and scientists who are generally willing to endorse policy favorable for the elite, including the control and mass use of oil as well as the suppression of alternative energies. The elites would love for people to focus on the bazaar rituals, since the occult provides the perfect distraction while networks of people are tapped and put into positions of power. A perfect example of this would be the 2004 elections where George Bush and John Kerry, both members of Skull and Bones, were the only choices given to the American people. Even Obama has proven with the bailouts that he works for the interests of Wall Street and the international bankers and NOT the American people. Drill baby Drill is now Spill baby spill <b>&#8230;</b>

</strong><br />
<!-- WSA: ad in context adsense not shown: too many ads --><br />
I would like to offset my air conditioning bills by purchasing a solar panel setup.  I guess the questions that need answered are these:</p>
<p>How much power does a central air unit use?  220 Volts / 8 Amps Sound about right?</p>
<p>How large of a solar array will I need to power this non-stop during peak daylight/sunlight hours?</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by fuzzykjun</i><br/>8 amps?? what a laugh,,, try closer to 20 and more when it suges on,,,,they do not a large panel like that,, you have to combine several together to get the juice required,, and you need a regulator plus a bunch of expensive batteries and then a converter to change the DC to AC</p>

<p>Best reply by Mikey:</p>
<p>There are normally setup in the far east &#038; employ all local people on very low wages &#038; produce often fake goods with high market brand names or more often then not very low quality goods, produced by very poor people in bad humanitarian conditions.</p>
