Attention off grid people.

Ramen noodles go rancid 4 years after their expiration date. The noodles themselves, not the seasoning packet.

Why do you think the flag was taken down from theUS embassy in Moscow today? I heard the CIA went there to talk to Putin to stop what has been planned... but to no avail. I guess its about to hit the US dollar now. Only a matter of time now. I told you we were about to go down the rollercoaster... This is it. Right before the stern of the titanic goes below the water and Jack/Rose hold their breath. Are you ready?

Well the gate opener is working again. Topens dual gate opener. They were very helpful during a warranty claim. Naturally I didnt' tell them it was a lighting strike. The only hold up is they didn't have the main board in stock.

So as it turns out the limit switches were bad as well. They smartly put a 10k resistor across the contacts of a reed switch so they can tell if the limit switches are connected (or burned up). Very clever.

So now we'll have a spare board on hand and a pair of limit switches too.

46kw of solar. Note the industrial pallet racking to raise panels out of the shadows of trees.

New thermostat for solar hotwater heater found. This is one rated for 120vac or 169vdc. Connect up 3 or 4 250w solar panels in series to a 120v water heater element and enjoy the hot water. use this thermostat and the existing pop-off safety thermostat in series. Do NOT use the adjustable thermostat that comes with the water heater. https://senasys.com/product/2570f444-34-epoxy-sealed-thermostat/

The above thermostat is available in many lower temperature setpoints... it occurs to me you could clip it on the hotwater line to a shower and turn the vent fan on and off as well.

Also useful for cattle trough de-icing.

Does anyone know what bird this is? Rather large wingspan.
A friend is mounting his panels and trying to carefully align them. So he uses a small C clamp to hold them on top of unistrut and small wooden wedges to fine tune their placement.

So here’s a video on making apple pectin. I haven’t tried making it myself but this seems pretty informative and hopefully I can try it out later on this year. If I do I’ll try to remember to show you guys the result.
