Solar Tracking - Our Solar Tracker
Using a different approach to solar tracking, we decided to build a solar tracker for a solar panel that powers our solar evaporative cooler. We live in an all solar home. We heat, cool and power our home using solar energy. We have even created a website that not only tells how we do it, but shows you as well using videos. It is our goal to continually improve this site with new ideas about solar tracking.

There are a number of commercial solar trackers available, but if you're good with your hands, this video (which is still being edited) shows how you can build one yourself at a fraction of the cost. Neat stuff! Posted July 23, 2008 |
