I would like to reduce my use of electricity by trying to go to solar power but I have limited resources (cash and knowledge). I would need free plans and instructions on how to build and simple procedures for maintenance, care, and use of the system. I also need any safety precautions I would need to follow to implement this system. I have no mechanical background so I need layman's terms so I can understand what I am going to be doing. This is being done for areas in India or Pakistan with no electrical power so must be cost efficient but there was no further information available to my knowledge on the program I saw.
You need a dynamo it has a tiny wheel inside which touches the wheel and when the wheel rotates the dynamo's wheel rotates.
The wheel is connected to copper coils which gets charged and produces electricity from the friction. The electricity is used to power lights in a bycycle.
