I'm looking for ideas that use little to no electric.
Our only grid power at the moment is a 10 amp extension cord ran from the meter.
The rest of our power is wind and solar, but our battery bank can't take another source drawing..
What would be the smalles wattage bulb that would put out enough heat for a brooder?
Last year I did things a bit out of the box... I warmed bricks on my Woodstove and kept a warm one In the brooder at all times.. But won't be able to spend the time constantly switching out this year
