more progress yesterday.. made a box, a awhile back, (long drawn out story of a series of "well, that didn't work.." occurrences lol) to hold the remote...got it wired and mounted
   

along with more wiring and such..  Dang, this is taking a lot longer than I thought it would..- figures.

hells yes.

And electrical-anything is one of my blind-spots.
I can grow things, raise things, butcher things, fix things, make things, and write things.. but wiring things? not a skill.. so I am double and triple checking myself, then going back and checking my work.. lol

lol @ self..  Just came to the realization that I can actually pre-install the solar panels.. without connecting them to the controller/batteries

(psst- hey idiot, that is what the charge controller does when the batteries are full.. it shuts off the power from the panels..)


So long as I take care to make sure there is no loose 'hot lead' anywhere.. I should be fine for a week or so.
(so that I can, if needed, finish it in AZ  around folks that eat/breathe this stuff.. !)

Yup yup !


RE: Miles Irving - GotSmart - 01-08-2018

Uh Oh. That would be me.


RE: Miles Irving - GypsyDogs - 01-08-2018

Don't worry- I'm a "me-do" type.. though I would willingly accept knowledgeable guidance. 8)

GAAAA--  running out of time.. 

Today's mission: fix curtain issue. (Y'all donwanna see that, trust me!  Blush ) in the earlies.  Still dark out right now.

and, weather-permitting, get the panels on the roof..  I think  I now have everything to mount them.. except a 2nd person. lol
When did that ever stop me?

Of course, my employer will be getting a humongous job in-house late today.. so tomorrow will be a loss, as far as getting van stuff done.  *insert several colorful words of your choice here*  They will want me to work a split shift.. come in early, take a long lunch and then stay late..  whee.

Still need to pull all the incidentals out and repack.. I know I have a bunch of dreck I don't need... and don't have things I Do need.

Must do ALL the Things!
