The sun is the most vital form of energy accessible to us, and solar power taps into this renewable resource. The sun could potentially provide us with 10,000 times the amount of energy we need. In fact, photovoltaic installations in just 4 percent of the worlds deserts would meet energy needs across the world. The worlds supply of fossil fuels is limited, and burning them produces dangerous by-products and pollutants. In addition to helping the environment, homeowners who utilize solar power help their bank accounts as well. With lower utility bills from month to month, homeowners who invest in solar equipment can expect a pay-off in 20 - 25 years.

http://www.winpowerwest.com The Self StarterTM II Controller is the most advanced software driven printed circuit board controller for the unattended or remote starting and stopping of generator sets or engines.
Some of the features include:
Use with Single or Three Phase units,
Multiple, time-constained cranking with a cool down period between start attempts:
Optional no-load starting of the generator. A time delayed transfer of power to the loads allows the engine to warm-up and ensures proper output voltage from the generator (power is not transferred if voltage falls outside of acceptable range)
Constant voltage & current monitoring of generator during operation with immediate shut-down for high voltage and a delayed shut down for low voltage to allow for motor-start loads.
Monitoring of generator frequency and engine RPM
Built-in circuit for interface with oil pressure and water temperature switches.
Shut down of generator if a problem is detected. The controller will (attempt a) restart and check to see if the problem persists: if not, the generator will be allowed to run - if the problem persists, the unit will shut down and display a fault (reason) code.
Simple two-wire start connection can be used with one switching device or multiple switches in series or parallel.
Load specific current monitoring is available - useful, for example, when running a remote well pump to shut the unit down for a pre-selected time interval if the well flow rate falls too low.
Hour meter functions for both the engine and generator.
Panel mounted digital display.
Programmable maintenance intervals - will display a maintenance reminder when maintenance is due.
Available stand alone or mounted in rain/dust proof enclosure with wiring harness ready to attach to generator/engine.
