Thanks, Daox - the kit is probably the way to go - I want to get my hands dirty, so to speak, but learn how it works at the same time.
Powering the fan like the prius is a good idea, or if I eventually have an array (planned) atop my garage, I could plug the car's dump load into the inverter! Vehicle -to- Grid!
My car doesn't move much in the summer unless we go out of town; I live in the city, don't work all summer, and ride my bike or walk everywhere I can.
