Buy yourself a Kill A Watt meter or other home energy monitor and measure the fridge consumption for a full three days to get an average per day. That plus the number of hours of decent sunlight would tell you how many solar panels you might...

You can find what you are looking for from Northern Tool and Equipment.

For example, can I run a two burner electric stove? Can I run a small dvd player?
Can I run lights?
You'll need to know the amp/hour rating of the battery and factor in the current (amp) load demand of the devices being used. I don't think you'll be able to operate a stove for long (if at all) though a DVD player and low wattage light shouldn't be

i store solar power in a 12 volt batt. and wanted to know how i would get it to my "L"pod (becuse it will soon be better than your ipod)
-You'd have to use your stored power to charge the pod's internal battery. Since a pod charges off the usb port of a computer and usb puts out 5 volts that's a place to start. You'll need a transformer to step your voltage down to 5 volts or a...

10 things I want from cleantech in 2012
Let’s face it: For cleantech, at least in the U.S., this year was kind of a bummer. I just read MIT Tech Review’s Year in Energy post and I got depressed. But that’s what New Year’s resolutions and wishes are for: turning a new page when the year starts over.
And now that we’re getting close to the end of 2011, it’s that time to ponder what we want and need from an industry so crucial to global economics and sustainability, but continuing to struggle in various ways.
Here’s what I want from cleantech in 2012:
1. Goodbye to Solyndra. It’s time for the fog of bankrupt solar company Solyndra to clear. Yes, there could still be findings from any hearings or more auctions, and since Solyndra has turned into a political issue, it will still rear its ugly head in the run up to the elections. But any lessons that could be learned from Solyndra have already happened, and anything left over is just a distraction at this point. Let’s kill this beast.
