What about bicycle power? I myself have been looking into creating a bike powered alternative, because i just stayed at a camp where they had that very thing and they powered a whole music stage with it! Iv found plans online for how to make your own and it doesnt look that hard. Me and my friends are going to be attempting to make one. I shall try and give you the links for some of the places i was looking…
What do you think? Answer below!

Actually, it is best to have a PROFESSIONAL set up your electrical system unless you have an electrician in your settlement. Otherwise there are just too many problems that can occur if you don’t set everything up correctly. Also, you would need to have a battery to charge while you can get solar energy. Then there is the alternative of wind power depending on where you are located at. No matter what, you would want professionals to install anything you choose.
