Absolutely correct, and Utah doesn't want that stuff going through its
state on the way to Nevada either. Save transportation costs and bury it
in Iowa.

Yeah, but they need a refinery first. but you know, ..."those who live
by the sword, die by the sword." But those evil environmentalists will
probably save him.

Right. And would you want that unregulated refinery built upwind
from
your hotel?? Didn't think so.

Ah, yes -- another person who apparently hasn't flown over most of
the
country -- which, by the way is almost entirely VACANT.

On that basis we should build it inside your head.


Bertie

And you offer this pointless tid bit because you have no point, or
don't
understand the issue, or both?



Just being constructive.

Technology to make AC from DC, DC from AC, high voltage DC from low
voltage DC and all the combinations has existed for decades. It's very
basic stuff. I've made 1000 volts DC from 12 volts DC. It's not even
hard to do.

Right, not hard; just expensive and inefficient as hell, and in some cases,
almost unusable.

Most of the home level inverters are what they call "modified sine wave"
inverters. All that says is that the innards of the inverter cut the power
on and off rapidly, so if you read the voltage, it rises and falls in a
choppy square notched "sort-a-looks-like-a-sine-wave" if you squint real
hard.

The more sophisticated ones are more than three times the cost, which makes
them very expensive.

The modified sine wave converters will power most stuff without permanent
damage, but don't try to use your DeWalt cordless drill battery charger.
Anything that reads like a high voltage until you put the load on it will
fry, and it says so in the inverter's instructions, if you take the time to
read the fine print. Don't ask me how I know that.

They also put out a good bit of heat, and guess what. That heat is power
going out the window, in a big efficiency loss. Oh, and don't try to power
a refrigerator, or AC, unless you really want to see a big time efficiency
hit. They don't work very well, at all.

So, the long and short is that if you are using battery or Solar DC, you had
better be using as many DC units as at all possible, or your batteries will
not last very darn long.

I'm not against Solar, but everyone needs to know the limitations of doing
so. You need a specially designed system using mostly straight DC, or lots
of money, if you expect to get much useful power out of the system.
