Combination circuits are just series and parallel circuits combined into one circuit. So, the same series and parallel circuit rules, Kirchhoff's and Ohm's Laws apply. The key is to know how and where to simplify the combination circuit. There may be more than one option for you to simplify a combination circuit. Here we discuss how to simplify combination circuits to find all of the resistance, voltage power or current values needed, and we discuss how to troubleshoot combination circuits in practical situations.

Electronics complete course. Series circuits are thoroughly discussed in relation to ohm's law and the values of resistance, voltage, power and current. For voltage, it remains the same at each parallel junction. For current, it adds up in parallel circuits. For resistance, it is a bit more complicated, the total resistance is smaller than the lowest resistance in the circuit. And, since there are more paths for the current to travel, it will choose to travel through the lower resistances with more current. I also read how power behaves in a parallel circuit, like current, it adds up with each added branch. Remember that current and voltage are opposites in a parallel and series circuit, in a parallel voltage remains the same and in a series it adds, and in a series circuit current remains the same while voltage adds. So, break out your pencil and calculator and follow along.

Here I discuss your right to remain disconnected the electrical grid, telecommunications options when off the grid. You have to full right to not pay anyone for their product or services. Similarly, you do not have to have an electrical connection if you so choose. It's a simple concept that seems to have been lost in the shuffle. And, governments and power companies alike try hard to make it seem like an obligation; for you to pay your private for profit electric corporation. Don't be fooled. Also, here I discuss several free telecommunication options including free and open Wi-Fi computer networks, free phone service, and free private phone and computer networks. I also discuss the exciting world of radio frequency telecommunications.

In this information packed episode, I discuss many important topics dealing with methods and technologies to enable you to live off the grid. First I discuss cooking equipment options. I prefer to use electricity-less or gas equipment for cooking when off grid. It saves much energy. Then, I speak about shelter or home options. I stress the importance of low cost housing, and how cost is more important than efficiency. But, efficiency is highly important, and I discuss was to keep your energy working at its fullest and with much efficiency. I stress how HVAC is the largest energy consumer in most homes, and how to condition your environment when off the grid. When I discuss water systems for homes, I focus on rain collection, which I think to be the best option. After discussing water options, I move on to speak about off grid home options, the dome and the triangular home. These are "build" options that aim to maximize efficiency and not be connected to any utility. I showcase my previous design projects: the wooden dome, the concrete monolithic dome, and the triangular home. In those designs I attempted to design the homes with the ability to collect water, energy, and remain pleasant inside. Lastly, I discuss energy systems to live off grid, with center stage taken by solar energy technologies, followed by wind energy. This episode is packed with information, so you won’t want to miss it.

Here I discuss the methods and technologies to help you live off the grid. First, understand that these needs should be free to access. No one should make a profit from allowing you to drink and eat. These discussed methods and technologies will help you to take care of your water needs, and take care of your food needs. Collecting, using, and recycling water is essential, and there are many options for doing these off the grid. Growing, harvesting, and preserving food is also critical. And these technologies and methods will help.Hector Vladimir 2026 ©#offgrid #offgridlivingLiving Off the Grid in the City Podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@hbcsolarpvtechhttps://www.youtube.com/@hbcsolarpvtechbyronhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61552559207892Living Off the Grid in the City PDF bookhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1fY4aaKpWzUX4W5rTyeI1U7oeBOcSviEp/view?usp=sharinghttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyWqApEqGtc6nd-_C6bkiKnMxLBg7DfgKhttps://rumble.com/c/c-5079280https://www.bitchute.com/channel/1yG6vacOmMN7Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/hectorvladimirSubstack page: https://hectorvladimir.substack.com/For information purposes only.

Here I continue my discussion on the methods and technologies to help you live off the grid in comfort, safety, and efficiency. I focus on tech and methods for your home, your shelter. I give ideas on tech for keeping your home with running water, warm or cool air and ventilation, and comfortable with efficiency in the home’s features and design. I introduce the possibility of building your home to be specially efficient and off the grid, using rain collection, solar energy, and efficieny appliances. I introduce the advantages and the building of domes, wooden and of cinder block. And, I speak about my latest off grid home design, the efficient home project, which feature a triangular extrusion home built with off grid features.
