Simple home solar energy system— with 120v AC Light Bulb comparrision

Here I show a comparrison between LED, CFL, and incandescent 40 watt “equivilent” 120v AC light bulbs. I am using a simple “home brew” solar powered AC system for the test. This was done to simulate an “off grid” situation. Use of 12v bulbs (without the energy loss of the inverter) would be another interesting test but this test was done to test the efficiency of the AC bulbs used in this fashion.
