I don't know if the word transformer is correct, but I will use it here to mean converting from AC to DC and/or back again. I think that the key to the whole grid vs non-grid would include a hefty discussion on transformers. I am a computer expert and I know that computers convert (Transform) from AC to DC.
To start off, here is my first question: Would household devices like fridge, washer - clothes and dish, TVs, stereos, lighting - led and fluorescent, be better off working off of DC and have a transformer only for the AC coming in from the grid? If so, why not have new house construction include this configuration?
