My grand experiment is off-grid. I have a couple power poles on my property that run to another house but I am not connected to grid.IMost of you have your solar power systems installed so just running the basic necessities for your home how long can you run your system if the grid was to go down for an extended period and you can't get gas, propane, or resupply?
Ok, so the guy called Half-Baked liked my post about storing POT...LMAOROTFAnd Pot

The Pot is for barter - maybe Zombies! - oh wait, should the zombies get the muchies, that could be bad...I just woke up and read it.
I don't know if having pot that gives you the munchies is great for a survival situation but at least you die laughing.
If you are thinking of outrunning a man in near proximity… 3-4 seconds means you have to be at least 20-22 feet away to maybe ‘outrun’ a person at 0-30mph in 4 seconds, probably more like 30’ away.3-4 second quick?
Yes getting away from bad people quick if needed. I guess I was trying to ask how quick it goes from zero to 30-35mph.. Do you have to pedal abit to get these going before hitting the electric throttle hard ??If you are thinking of outrunning a man in near proximity… 3-4 seconds means you have to be at least 20-22 feet away to maybe ‘outrun’ a person at 0-30mph in 4 seconds, probably more like 30’ away.
My Ariel X has a 1200 watt motor and will do 35mph. Faster than even most cars off the start.Yes getting away from bad people quick if needed.

My scooter will go from 0 to 18 mph in about 4 seconds and stay there for 40 milesYes getting away from bad people quick if needed. I guess I was trying to ask how quick it goes from zero to 30-35mph.. Do you have to pedal abit to get these going before hitting the electric throttle hard ??
You can’t actually run it at full speed.Nobodybusiness said:
Very Basic.
Schwinn Meridian trike with a Crystalyte 2000 watt hub motor on the front with Thumb throttle.
Got a 72v 30ah battery in the basket.
Battery in picture.
I also put a disc brake on the front.
The little rubber one didn’t like going 30 MPH.
That is pretty cool.. If we ever get to the walking dead thing or something like that. A small stealthy quiet and light utility vehicle like this would be great for going out and doing scavenging runs.. You say it does about 30 tops ? Will it get to 30mph pretty quick? 3-4 second quick? Is a 72 volt motor about the biggest size they sell I a$sume? Dont mean to derail the thread, I just thought the little electric vehicles a few of you guy's showed were interesting to me.. Thank you

Suggestion for those who live rural: fence lines.Probably one of the most important things that many prepper ignore is being discreet and covert. It’s bad enough the world see those big panels, but it’s catastrophic if you have to spend every moment telling the unprepared no or defending your supplies because everyone knows you got it.
That said in a zombie outbreak I'm going to be in my 600 hp F250 diesel with the 4wd locked in... Going for extra points ! SPLAT!
Drugs are an issue everywhere even in wealthy communities.We do that on the highways in San Jose (they're allowed to live under bridges and in interchanges.)
Called in a zombie sighting one Saturday night (more like 12:15 very early Sunday.) Spotted him just a few car lengths ahead of me, plodding in my direction (fortunately he was in the fast lane, I was in the next one over, or I would have had to swerve hard; I was in the Civic not the K2500.)
911 said he had been on the shoulder 20 minutes earlier so it wasn't treated as urgent.
Monday, the lighted highway signs said, "Always watch for pedestrians on roadway."
He had been in the slow lane when he tangled with a BMW, shortly after we passed.
Fortunately, the driver was cooperating, which means the zombie didn't come through the driver's side of windshield.
A coworker today said she had tried to participate in the Guadalupe Creek cleanup this morning (sponsored by work and Trash Punx), but was turned away because there were too many hypodermic needles.
That was interesting time.September 22 1989...
