Solar Energy for the Survival Market

Paralyzing Blackouts Can Last Weeks...
Even MONTHS After a Catastrophic Event!




And while there are ways to ensure your family won't sit in the dark like the rest of your neighborhood (I'm going to show you my personal favorite method for this in a moment)... 

... there's very little you can do to actually prevent these nasty power failures.
Because when a hurricane or a massive earthquake shatters power plants and collapses miles of power lines... all you can do is sit and watch. 

If you’re lucky, the power gets restored in a few hours. But the more serious the disaster... the more likely it is you’ll be in the dark for weeks... even months. 

It’s happened before – with hurricane Katrina, or with the recent earthquakes in Japan. With many of the Japanese power plants in rubble, people were told they’ll be experiencing "controlled blackouts" for up to 3 months in a row! 

This is serious stuff. A lot more serious that not having TV or your XBOX console for a few months. Because when the lights go out... things get VERY serious, very fast:
  • You can’t cook, boil water or store food in a freezer... so it’s beans, rice and canned beef for a month (or government “instant meals” if you’re lucky!)
  • You can’t use any power tools to rebuild your home faster... and if the damage is extensive, you’ll need to consider your alternatives (like... living in tents, or in “emergency homes”... while your home is unprotected from thieves and looters!)
  • You can’t keep a light on, can’t listen to emergency news broadcasts, can’t charge batteries, and plenty more! (Luckily, there’s a quick, easy and inexpensive way to power up all your essential devices seconds after disaster... and I'm going to give you all the juicy details here)
Fact is, electricity is so important to having a normal life... you don’t really understand how much you need it until you lose it!

Mitsubishi iMiEV comes to us and will be the EV cheaper market

The very popular Japanese electric car Mitusbishi iMiEV, which is in the Spanish market for some months, it is by arriving at the United States.

To this base price, should detract from the different incentives that exist for the purchase of electricity, cars which without doubt are very interesting and it may lead to a final price up to 50% cheaper, or even more. To begin with, the U.S. Government provides a credit of $7,500 in federal taxes. They are joined the incentives offered by States, also in the form of tax credit, which can reach the juicy sums of $ 6,000 in Colorado or $5,000 in California.

There are also other regional or local benefits that can reach $3,000. On the outside of the State incentives , also any private such as for example company sony pictures which offers to its employees for a sum of $5,000 for the purchase of electric cars.He is expected that in November this year start selling, although already interested in the web site can register for the Mitusbishi iMiEV.
