Deep cycle is the best. A lot of people are buying recycled golf cart batteries 6 volt each. I have a customer on the big island who uses car batteries. He gets them from the junk yards for $15 each. Just need to match the amps on the batteries.

I pray this is not true.  We need to get the range built on the leeward side.  I hope more people voice their opinion come NOV 2012. VOTE!

When I was 11 my mom gave me a M1 Carbine and a Beretta 22LR pistol.  This was back in the early 70's when people were less paranoid.  My mom was on her HS rifle team, so she had no qualms about me using firearms. When my dad took me to the range it was so funny because he didn't know squat about firearms.  So I had to do all the loading and unloading.  The range officers were always watching me.  I took a interest in German Iron and my first guns I purchased when I turned 21 were a Walther P38, Luger and a Walther PPK/S.

I am in the Solar Industry.  HECO is full of it.  They will lose a lot of $$ if everyone did Solar.  What they tell/show you is only to look good as a business.  Unfortunately we still need them because Eletrical Storage is non-exsistant because batteries are still too inefficient and Wind Turbines have to rely on having wind.  I have been working on making a self sufficient sub division project for 2 years now.  Supplying power to 200 homes is really a pain when you have limited back up. A Mini Nuclear plant would be nice!
