NOT A BAD IDEA...when you adapt it to "MY WILD IDEA":
OK, picture this: You have a multitude of car batteries all being
charged up to full charge by these trees during daylight hours. Then
when night time falls, these same batteries could Power Hundreds of
Christmas Tree series string lights which are wrapped around the same
trees!
This could be done by wiring a day-night light/dark sensor to a bunch of
MOSFET power transistors which would be biased "ON" to series connect
all the batteries to the lights! (series wired for low current draw of
course!) Wiring ten 12 Volt batteries in series equals 120 Volts D.C.
Daytime circuit wired transistors would parallel all batteries to trees
to provide tree charging! hmmm
The same lights would also help the trees to continue growing in the
dark thus providing trickle charging current for the batteries!
Imagine, Christmas lights ALL YEAR ROUND!
Hey, so what if the lights get a little dim by 5 A.M., at least you
would have gotten all the neighbours amazed or jealous! <g>
Another Free Energy Idea -Aye!
