Well, this is fun. At this point we're pretty much boned. I'm augmenting our photovoltaic production, house is insulated, we've got airco, and rainwater storage is approaching 100k liters with recovery from every possible surface. Next, atmospheric water generation, and enjoy the ride.

Better head into Tosche Station to pick up some power converters.

"Avoid ordering from Amazon" vs "dealing with Tusken raider ambushes"? Hmmm

We invested in an air to water machine during the last catastrophic drought when water rationing kicked in and heavy fines were levied for anyone who exceeded those. Very good buy, still works like a charm.

Any recommendations? I am looking at the watergen ones. Thinking of a pretty heavy duty one as I don’t want the garden to turn into Kalahari Mk II again despite ripping out lots of lawn in favour of dry climate plants…

Ours is a little domestic unit, about the size (volume-wise) of a washing machine, and only produces enough water for drinking, not watering the Sahara, as it seems you wish to accomplish.

Ah right. I call those "dehumidifiers" and I have about five of them for whenever the roof leaks, a medieval water pipe breaks, or the cellar floods, because this dump was angrily built by a herd of enthusiastically shitfaced Catalan farmers...

This one lives in the laundry room where it sucks everything dry in record time. In contrast to your dump, our pseudo-Swiss chalet was built by a mystery Frau Germanname, who three owners later, still somehow lives here (at least according to the mailing list of a very persistent New-Age cult group)
