The Power of The Sun

Our Product Line with Prices
 
There are many options offered here.  Pick the system power, frame construction, manual or automated tracking that you need.

Frame construction :  For most applications we recommend welded steel construction.  If you need light weight framework, we can fabricate from aluminum.  All critical joints will be welded, some joints are made with stainless steel fasteners so your system can be broken down for shipping.  For economy and home experimenters, we offer a sturdy wooden frame construction.  Lens frame and target stand are metal.

Tracking:  We have a straight optical tracking system and we also offer a more advanced computer controlled system based on GPS.  The elevation of the tracking will change with seasons.  For most systems, a wedge system is best.  The wedge is set to your latitude and matches the natural inclination of the Earth's axis.  This simplifies most tracking issues greatly.

DANGER NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER:  These units are not toys.  They can be extremely dangerous.  It is possible to melt ceramics, metals, and glass.  They will destroy flesh on contact.  They are equivalent to using a blowtorch or plasma arc.  AS SUCH- we cannot accept ANY responsibility or liability for what you do with them, or for any damage or injury resulting from them.  Our designs are as inherently safe as can be expected, but it is possible to do something stupid just the same.

We expect that you will observe proper operation and safety practices.  You MUST wear welding goggles or equivalent during operation.  You also should use gloves and we recommend that any extended exposure to the reflected light and solar radiation be countered by using shielding garments or sun blocker applied to exposed skin.

Allow 6-8 weeks for construction and delivery.  Basic units usually ship within two weeks.  Ground shipping and handling charges apply.  All units are tested before shipping.

See a demonstration video of the 1.5 kilowatt unit in operation.
