If you are so remote,then why wouldn't it be prudent to have a generator
for -some- power,if not whole-house capability?

And can't you get broadband from a satellite in Canada,at least for
downloads?


BTW,a car battery and an inverter would power your laptop,or a TV &
DVDplayer,maybe a fluorescent light or two.
