Made in China isnâ€™t necessarily a bad thing. Iâ€™m providing a link to a very bright headlamp that has 19 LEDs. Itâ€™s one of those that shines near-natural-colored light and cost me 12 bucks total. That includes the shipping. LED headlamp

That is swell. One more thing for my wish list, eh? Here’s something I want for preparedness and can never find: I want to know if I can install some sort of manual pumping system into my existing plumbing so I can draw water if my power goes out. Know of anything that will do that? I don’t want a special well or line, just something in conjunction with the existing pipes to draw the water up (it is a shallow well) if I have no electricity (hand pump, bicycle pump, whatever).

Kevin,

Not too sure if you’re aware, but there’s a device out of Adelaide called the SunCube that might be useful as a redundant power supply as well as lowering your reliance on the NZ power infrastructure. Here’s the link to the page.

Cheers, and thanks for the work from both you and Becky on Farmlet as well as Cryptogon. I sincerely appreciate it.
