Welcome to the Normal to Nomad podcast where we share stories, thoughts, ideas, and conversations

on our journey to find balance with nature in a technologically advanced world. My name is Barron.

And I'm Elsa. We live together in a 13-foot scamp trailer with our dog camp in the American wilderness.

Hello and welcome back. Today we are talking about solar power.

Finally.

Yeah. This one's been requested a number of times and it's been a long time coming, but... We just haven't known, oh, me specifically, how to talk about this in a way that makes sense.

Yeah, it's...

It's very complex.

It can be, but we use it all the time and don't understand it at the most fundamental level, really.

And it works great.

Like, we power all of our things with solar power.

With the base understanding, it's no big deal.

And especially with the systems that we have.

If I were to build something from scratch, I'd have to learn how to build those systems

and understand things deeper, but it's not totally necessary.

And I think a lot of the ways that people

talk about, solar and power generally speaking,

are really confusing.

So we're hoping to eliminate some of those confusing variables

and make it easier to understand.

I've tried a number of times to write blog posts

on how solar works and how to understand it and how I understand it.
