Some of the plan #1

solar panel summery:
6 250 watt panels with 6 hours of sun, and 6 hours shade. 1500 watts total.
60% 900 watts at 24 volts times 6 hours=5400watts+ 20% for 6 hours=1800 watts.
total 7200 watts or 7 kwhs.
=====================================================
battery summery:
8 500ah batteries 6 volts. 2100 ah. x  8= 16800 watts 500x6x8=24000
24 kwh. x 30% usage a day. 7 kwh a day or 7000 watts a day 24 hrs.
4 series to 24 volt, 2 of them, then parallel them together for a 24 volt system
===============================================
24 volt charge controller
24 volt pure sine wave inverter to 110 2000-3000 watt
===============================================
7 blade to 9 blade wind turbine. needs to be up at 35 to 60 ft. for wind turbine.
charge controller needed for wind turbine. 900-1000 watt turbine.
put on pole and anchor into ground. use take down pole.
"Missouri wind" and solar. 3 phase. 12 gauge ul wire.

propane stove, on demand hot water, furnace, and dryer.

wood burning stove, pot belly type.

solar water heating and, solar water heating for room heat. PEX tubing.

Our Plan:

Our plan is to buy a home with at least 10 acres. With under $1000 a year property tax.
We would like a nice size garden and a green house for seedlings.
We would like a dozen chickens and a coupe.
We would like a pole barn on the property, or something similar.
We would like to have all our power off grid, Solar and Wind.
We would like Heat from sun for water and Air.
We would also like a wood burning stove for winter.
We would like Propane for cooking inside and outside.

Our goal would be very few bills a month.
Only cell phones and High Speed Internet.
Would not mind on the grid hookups for a backup to the house, but Primarily we would be OFF Grid.

We would like to have a couple of dogs on the property. We have none now. But have had many before.
We would like to Jar and preserve our harvest from the garden.
We would like to have a much smaller food bill. We are vegetarians and whole food eaters.

The idea is to end all the commuting and the high taxes of where we live now.

We want a comfortable life in the country, working hard for ourselves and enjoying Natural Life.

These are GOALS.
