Thanks people - realize that it was just a thought and not a project to get involved in

Yes i realize that and was never interested in design - not even really interested in the actual installation - but will do it with help starting small - ultimately i would want to just market and sell it and get finance for those customers - and leave supply (warranty) and installation...

Thanks people and really thank you for the above responses - have only perused it and it is actually something i have learned so will copy and paste to my word and disseminate it properly and can make sense of LOL (as i said was not born wired for science) - i just thought because a Capacitor/s...

Yes i know about UPS etc - A) - load shedding is not scheduled what is guaranteed in more chaos and mismanagement and a 10 nuclear power station deal (trillion rand) 100 billion dollars that actual cost will be double to triple in the end and someone has to pay for that -- but this is going...

and fuel prices are just as ridiculous - government adds nearly 40% on fuel for taxes etc

Yes but capacitors can be used for long term energy storage - and this is all just an idea in my head - i stay in South Africa and well we face up to 10 hours a week load shedding (blackouts) - to solar power a standard house off the grid is about $80 000 US (half a million rand here) --...

well that's my point - a capacitor as i understand it has can store vasts amount of energy/volts - if you can regulate its release - with regulator and inverter etc - to run a house off solar you need a lot of panels - would the use of capacitors not solve that problem

Okay so theoretically it is possible - so here is a scenario - i have one 200 watt solar panel on my roof and i would like to run my house off the electrical grid - with that 200 watt solar panel can i recharge enough capacitors to run my house during sunlight hours and then using batteries at...

can you charge a 12v car battery with capacitor
