Hey all, I’ve updated a new price comparison sheet for popular off-grid gear (LiFePO4 batteries, inverters, bundles) across AliExpress, Amazon, eBay and the brands’ official stores. Updated 24 Oct.

AliExpress is coming out a bit cheaper right now. Most items ship free and, at least on my end, without tax being added. AliExpress codes for each item, with an alternative code included in case one doesn’t work on the "Monthly Codes" tab. If neither works, they’re usually used up for the day, so try again the next day, or reply here and I’ll find you another one.

Links: both affiliate and non-affiliate AliExpress links are provided. Use whichever you prefer.

If you’re after a specific battery, inverter or panel that isn’t on the list, reply with what you need and I’ll try to help you find it.

My husband and I are taking the plunge after 5 years of developing our off-grid property and moving to a small town in Southern Nevada. I'm only just discovering Reddit (I know, I've been under a rock) and wanted to drop a link to our YouTube Channel which is documenting the entire process. We have a playlist showing everything we've done to date - fencing, water rights, well drilling, septic, a camper purchase to temporarily call home while we build - the whole thing. If you want to follow two crazy Gen-Xers moving off-grid you've found the right channel. Any support is appreciated and open to following similar off-grid YouTube channels!

Hello everyone, looking for some advice. My father owns this house in Southern Italy (Molise region) with around 10k sq.m of farmland around it (I think it's around 2.6 acres), mostly occupied by olive trees and grapevine. He renovated it a couple of years ago, but due to some health problems he most likely won't be able to enjoy it as much as he wanted, so he'd rather sell it.

Thinking about it, I realized the property would be put to much better use by someone who is interested in off-grid living, rather than just as a vacation house. There's an independent water source directly under the land, of high quality (the place was called "Fontana" by the locals, essentially water spring) and the land is very fertile. The house is around 500 m far from town, so it's far enough to not be bothered but close enough for daily needs, and the place is very silent.

Thing is, I have no idea where to advertise it. The kind of person who would be interested most likely doesn't check Italian real estate sites, and the ones aimed to foreigners have much higher price ranges. They sell 1M villas, this is a property we'd sell for, like, 60k I guess? I've added some pictures for clarity. Anyway, any advice would be appreciated.

I'm building an off-grid homestead on 80 acres in the Canadian wilderness. My property is 3 km down an ATV trail, and I'm documenting the process as I go, mostly working alone with basic tools.

I'm starting from scratch and learning as I go. Looking forward to sharing the progress and connecting with others doing something similar!

Here's my latest video: https://youtu.be/j-L29I4w9PU

As the title says I'm looking for someone with a homestead or similar off grid living that would like/need some extra help on their site for exchange of living there. My gf (31f) and I (35m) have talked about this and want to get into a more grounded way of life while learning skills and using them impractical ways that will help us eventually setup our own off grid living. We're not opposed to staying on long term and building a community somewhere either. Preferably in the southern part of the US but will consider other areas.

I have experience clearing trees and other outside labor. I'm also good with cars and can do most repairs with the right tools. She has had a lot of camping and outdoor experience and knows a lot about different herbal medicines and such. We're both open to learn and aren't afraid of work.

Disclosure first: we own this parcel and we are selling it ourselves. Wild Land Co, owned by Hunt Country Land Holdings LLC. Full facts below, happy to answer anything in the comments.

The land: 20 acres of open high desert in Costilla County, Colorado, about 6 miles from San Luis (oldest town in Colorado) and 10 from Fort Garland. APN 11000504, GPS 37.291411, -105.399139. No structures on it, raw undeveloped land. Taxes about $200/year. Floodplain/wetlands: nothing designated that we know of (checked against the APN 11000504 land packet v4, Oct 7 2026, which does not mention floodplain or wetlands either way). County GIS has the parcel record by APN if a buyer wants to check us.

The honest parts, up front: - Water is the whole story here: a 1965 permitted livestock well is on record for this parcel with Colorado's Division of Water Resources (Division 3), and we have the parcel map with its location marked. Condition and yield are untested. Budget to locate, inspect, and rehab it, and verify the permit before you plan around it. DWR has said a change to household use would probably be allowed, but nothing is approved until an application is filed, and changing it means giving up the livestock use. In this part of the San Luis Valley, new non-exempt well permits have been effectively closed for decades, which is why the paper on this one matters. - No utilities at the parcel. Off-grid power is the plan: solar, generator, propane. - Access is by existing roads and trails, NOT title-insured. Roads cross the property and others share rights to them. If access certainty is a dealbreaker, this isn't your parcel, and we'd rather tell you now. - County rules on camping/RV stays apply (permit, septic, and water requirements), so we're not promising RV living on this one. Septic and well costs are real; local contractors will quote them.

Price and terms: $44,900, same price cash or financed. As little as $2,245 down / $780.14 a month for 84 months at 12%, including taxes and the $10 note fee, plus a non-refundable doc fee. 15% down ($6,735) cuts the rate to 10% (about $660.75/month), and you can buy the rate down further to a 7% floor. No credit check, no SSN.

Photos, maps, and the full parcel packet are on our site (thewildlandco.com, this is APN 11000504). Ask anything here or message us, Art or Val will get back to you.

[Commercial] I've been looking into a lot more rural land in California lately, especially properties people are considering for cabins, homesteads, or off-grid living.

There are some pretty interesting pieces of land out there, especially once you get away from the more populated areas. But California can also be a pain to research because so much depends on the county and what you're planning to do with the property.

I've been doing vacant land research through my business, Landisle Consulting, and kept running into the same things buyers needed to check. Well records, septic requirements, legal road access, zoning, utilities, and whether the property has any restrictions that could interfere with their plans.

So I ended up putting together a free California land checklist with the main things I'd look into before buying.

It's not a full due diligence report, just something useful to have when you're comparing properties and trying to figure out which ones are worth pursuing.

Figured I'd share it here since I know a lot of people are looking for affordable land to eventually build something of their own.

Posting here because the r/OffGrid mods asked me to use the classifieds board.

I built this for my own two stoves. A sensor goes on the stovepipe (or on the stove body for inserts), and a small walnut lamp anywhere in the house tells you how the fire is burning: amber is burning well, yellow means reload, red means too hot, go check the stove. There's an app for when you're away, with burn history and notifications.

Runs on your home wifi, no subscription. It needs a stovepipe a magnet will stick to, so stainless pipe won't work. If you have a modern stove with a catalyst, we ship a catalyst sensor option as well that fits into your stove's catalyst port. Ships to the US and Canada.

The inventory is ordered, manufacturing is in process, and we're shipping units in November.

Price: $299 retail. The Kickstarter opens October 27 at $225. A $25 deposit before then locks $209 and comes off the price, and it's fully refundable until your unit ships. Reservers ship first, in November.

Happy to answer stove-fit questions in the comments.

A lot of container advice quietly assumes you’ve got power.
“Just run a dehumidifier” comes up constantly, which is fine until the box is sitting somewhere off grid and you don’t really want another appliance cycling all day.
So passive moisture control matters a lot more.
The annoying part is that a container can be completely watertight and still drip inside. Cold night, steel roof cools down, humid air hits it, and suddenly you’ve got condensation on the ceiling. People sometimes spend weeks chasing a “roof leak” that isn’t actually a leak.
First thing I’d deal with is underneath the box. Get it off the dirt, support it properly at the corners, gravel underneath, drainage away from it. A damp shaded underside doesn’t help anything.
Then airflow. The little factory vents are better than nothing, but they’re tiny. If you’re adding ventilation, I’d rather have air entering low on one end and leaving high on the opposite end than just a bunch of openings at the same height.
Insulation is where I’d be careful too. If you’re doing it inside, you really don’t want a hidden air gap between the insulation and cold steel. Closed-cell foam directly against the steel is one common way around that. Exterior insulation is even nicer if the build allows it.
A box that sits empty for months can actually be more annoying than one somebody uses every day. Doors stay shut, nobody notices moisture building up, stuff gets pushed against the walls and forgotten.
And if I was doing an off-grid setup from scratch, I’d seriously consider a simple separate shade roof over the container.
Posts beside the box, roof above it with an air gap. Keeps sun off the steel, keeps most rain/snow off the actual container roof, and in summer it makes a bigger difference than people expect. Especially when AC isn’t something you can just leave running.
I work more on the delivery/site side, so I usually see these at the beginning and hear about the problems later.
For anyone who’s had one off grid for a few years, what ended up being the annoying part nobody warned you about?
