Earth4Energy is hands down our top pick because of its easy to follow instructions, thoroughness, and excellent customer support after the sale. Earth4Energy gives you excellent step by step instructions on EXACTLY how to build wind generators (windmills) and solar panels for less than $200.00. Also included is a guide on where you can legally obtain deep cycle batteries for free. These can be integrated into your system as a backup for periods of low wind or lack of sunshine when you're not actually generating electricity. Instructions on how to do this are included with Earth4Energy. Anyone with a basic familiarity with tools (i.e. skill saw, drill, measuring tape, etc.) can easily build their own solar panels and windmills with this system. Another great feature is that it's alot of fun. You can get your family involved and make it a hobby while saving money on electricity and helping the environment.

Another decent product for guiding you through the process of getting off the grid. "Home Made Energy" also has good instructional resources (Ebooks, Videos, etc), although not as well put together as Earth4Energy. We found some of the information presented here to be a little confusing at times and their customer support was not nearly as helpful as Earth4Energy.
