I am very much interested in solar energy as a means of powering up
household devices ( lamps, heaters, AC's etc ) and not just as a means 
to recharge my rechargable batteries ( which I do not use very often
anyway ). 

I would like to know and get the opinion of those on the net that have
experience on this subject. Specifically

  1) Is it feasible ?
  2) What are the requirements ?
  3) Is conversion of solar energy, say, to heat rather than electricity
     more desirable.
  4) Will the cost of the system make it economically unsound ?


I can summarize if enough interest is shown. Please ask me to summarize !

Thank You.
