Power4Home.com John Russel Misleading pitch for "secret" ways to generate power cheaply, which are just well-known systems for solar and wind power (and NOT cheap). North Oaks, Minnesota

This web site appeared as a Facebook ad, and, because I'm interested in science and engineering, I couldn't help following the link. The video that came up was clearly a scam and a fraud. It focuses on emotional issues and is completely vague with regard to facts.

"John" claims to have a secret way to build alternative energy systems, such as solar and wind generators. I researched the wholesale prices for the components he claims are so cheap, and verified that he is lying. The scam is aimed at selling his D.I.Y. books, which clearly cannot deliver the miracle savings he promises.
