If you’ve been keeping tabs on recent posts, you’ll see we’ve been taking a look at magnetic renewable energy and how it can form a viable alternative or complimentary addition to a home energy network. We were asked to undertake a Magnets 4 Energy Review to see how to construct our own generator for under $100.

NOTICE: Now, before we kick into the rest of the review, there is an important notice we think our readers deserve the benefit of.  We did quite a bit of research into the magnetic energy gig and have discovered a free pdf by John Piggot which includes the design specs for a permanent magnetic generator.  A lot of the info in this product was freely available in the pdf so why not check out the design.  Some people may be fine with using just those schematics.  Others will want more guidance on the project as a whole and may benefit from the video series included in Magnets 4 Energy.  Frankly, we wanted you to have the option of both.  In these times, any money saver can be pretty important.

Now, our interest in magnetic energy has been piqued by other products we’ve recently reviewed, and we’ve been doing a good deal of reading on the subject of late and fancied ourselves as becoming lay experts on magnet generators.

Official Site: Earth 4 Energy

Plenty of people will provide an Earth 4 Energy review saying the product is great, but few actually tell us why or whether it can really benefit our efforts to take advantage of wind and solar power in the home.  For those of us who are prospective buyers of this type of product, often one of the foremost questions we have in our minds is ‘will this really give me the information I need to get the job done?’.  The reality is, a lot of the online ‘tutorial’ type packages are a bit light on when it comes to the all important details of actually purchasing and installing the necessary components to a wind power or solar energy system.

Without wanting to sound too much the cynic, if I purchase a guide on how to build a windmill…I want a guide on how to build a windmill, not a fluffy overgeneralized guide which blankets basic info with unpersuasive propaganda about how good I should feel for ‘doing my part’ for the environment.  Not that saving the planet isn’t high on my agenda…it is, but I want to make sure that any info product I purchase showing me how is worthy of the investment.

Fortunately, Earth 4 Energy is one of the guides which doesn’t skimp on the details.  In fact, it’s positively brimming with info and that is one of the major reasons it tops our product list.

In short…we like idiot proof.
