Wind power
I have been looking at small wind generators (about 40cm diameter) and approx £100, which generate 750W (or 10A at 12V) with a 15mph wind.
I have never measured the wind in the Sahara, but from memory recall the only wind of that sort of speed+ being around dusk (outside of sand-storms anyway!). Anybody have different recollections, or even experience with wind power!
Slightly random one, but you never know...
Sam.
PS I have found what appear to be very good (and relatively very cheap deep cycle batteries at www.genasyspowersystems.co.uk )
