Seriously things have been a bit out of sorts lately on account that we are a self hosted entity, which it a real problem when the power is off line. As a result of Hurricane Sandy we were without reliable AC power for several days. All is not dark however, as a result of this our founder came up with a solarization and an aeroturbine plan for the server so that in the future we may be able to avoid this.
We will post some photos of the solar project when the beta gets off the ground. As of right now we are experimenting with some hi-lumen LED lights and solar panels. The simplicity of the system is the key to what we plan to do. Possibly lifting the entire operation off the grid.
The AeroTurbine is an entirely different kind of animal and we are trying to produce a vertical rotator that will drive an alternator to charge the battery system directly. The main advantage is the relatively small foot print required to produce current and the safe operation for the environment.
In any event tune in to learn how we make out with the revitalization of the server project.
