Financially it was not in our best interests. Hohenfels GE was the only base to actually make money because we charged European Allies to train with us there. We pay "rent" for all bases we occupy. We are in those countries because of strategic first response ability. I don't know where you get...

Typical... wanting to enjoy ALL the benefits of a 1st world country... but not willing to accept or participate in all the nastiness it takes to BE that country. Then have the audacity to chastise those who do. Freedom isn't free... Hell... even your uncle Joe was in the situation room with BO...

Which is precisely why we are in Japan, South Korea, Germany, Kuwait and on and on. It's not about reconciliation of deaths... it's about being a superpower. Because we pulled the plug "on purpose" knowing the outcome uncle Joe denied publicly. Because it takes away from our R&D, out...

I know a guy... Try Josh with Peace Of Mind Electric out of Temecula. Go over options with him. (951) 634-7389 His company does great work and he's licensed and bonded. I myself purchased my solar from Solar Max in 2013 before I met Josh unfortunately.

Ok here we go.... There are pockets of "Trapped" citizens in some areas that the Taliban blocked. One of my terps made it out but his family is trapped over there. They may get out if the Taliban don't find them first. We abandoned a lot of people who did great work for us and this was no way to...

I figured this would go all political. Sad... I do like the fact that people put out information to give folks ideas on how to take care of themselves in lieu of expecting help from the government or strangers. Thank you all who have shared your ideas and information and at tried to "help"...

Will it be as good as this one? https://www.source.co/

I don't think that would happen in a single shot injector HEUI like on the 7.3. If it did, then some Hot Shots in the fuel bowel will take care of that. The HPOP won't oxidize... well because its and HPOP. Perhaps for a non-ECU controlled unit like Mr. Murphy's tractor a lubricity filter could...

If you want dry heat to prevent moisture try installing a Grizzly https://cubicminiwoodstoves.com/ or a Dwarf https://www.tinywoodstove.com/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI4-_MhKiH9AIVc9OWCh20Bg4NEAAYASAAEgLmifD_BwE Run Dry wood and your good!

That's the same for me. Out here in CA there's a lot of Offer up ads with with units out of Mexico which claim higher SEER with much lower weight which to me I don't think is possible. The better the drive motor and variable speed ability is what makes these things efficient. A good brushless...

" SEER On pure AC power when no free solar energy is used, official SEER is >22. SEER is "Seasonal EER" and is a way of describing an "average EER" and considers that the system operates under part-load conditions a majority of the time. Currently, there is no official test standard for testing...

I second everything MurphyGuy stated. It is imperative that you do what's best for you and yours. Attached is an American Red Cross Family Disaster plan which allows you to put tings into perspective. A FEMA Ready Checklist because the Government is always moments away when SECONDS count. Lastly...

Thank you for posing this Ko6! I'm sure everyone appreciates keeping their electronics quiet. I for one appreciate it!

Excellent article Joe! Thank you so much for providing it! I did notice that they said the power poles were rated at 75 amp but when you zoom into the phot of the Trip Lite it's 24V @ 40 amp. Maybe the photo was not the model that they used? And DANNNG that's a monster toroid! I plan on using...

Just had a look... Seems as though whomever is dealing with Signature Solar over there is way ahead of the ball game. Maybe Signature is influencing them? I don't know, but the "others" features don't even come close to what the EG4LL's are offering. Plus EG4 has a "track record" If your going...

I only know from experience. Try listening to AM radio under a solar paneled shade structure, and you will get a brief taste of what your in for. I use Ham Radio equipment and inverter "noise" is extremely prevalent in receive and a nightmare in broadcast. In order to overcome this you must...

Sorry about that Roark. The highest SEER ratings I have seen is 33 SEER on David Poz's video. The majority of minisplits @12000 BTU are 120V. Just do a google search of "120V 12000 BTU Minisplit" and a ton of manufacturers will come up. Running 240 is complicated so I would not recommend it. To...

I once had to commute from Inglewood CA to South Gate CA, which most of the trip was through Compton CA and was "less Watts total" for the trip. Just sayin..... Come on.... we all knew he meant "Volts" Whew you guys are rough!

This is an accurate statement. Never say never. If it's a joint effort it's another matter entirely. We "all" didn't stop testing them. NK tested in 2017 and we believe others are conducting "low yield" tests today This is true This is also true. Less than 2% of our society have these skill...

That is an awesome system! Thank you for sharing! I suppose any water heater can act a dump?

Thanks eX. That's a good point about the division of amperage between the 2 units vs his single all in one system. My main loads with the most run time are 24v contingent, 1) I intend to keep all the exterior box lights and switch them to LED which run most efficiently at 24V with a .9A draw x...

I'm not sure if anyone else caught this but the gear your running is highly sensitive to "Noise" that High Frequency inverters put out. It would be more weight, but a Low Frequency inverter will not have as much sensitivity issues with your equipment when running an LF inverter. I went cheap...

250 AMPS vs 125 AMPS = No biggie. Especially for Mobile applications.... I have an ambulance and am doing that very thing. (2) Growatt 3000 in split phase for 120 and 240 needs. EG4 series 3 24v 5.1KW 200AH x 6 = 30KW limited to 3000 watts 120v per side or 6000 240. Soooo completely doable. All...

Mine took 10 weeks back in July. They are pretty good from all of the reviews. David Poz did a 6 month review of them along with several other topics. You won't regret getting them.

Thank you RC and Ampster. This was the detailed information I was looking for. Thank you again for explaining the "WHY". This has convinced me that a LF inverter / inverters are absolutely mandatory for the house in my planned system. My batteries will be carried on my rig and run...

I was wondering if anyone tried the Growatts as a hybrid inverter for AC coupling. I know some one used a Victron. I know Growatts are not capable of frequency shift, however I am wondering if it was possible. In my grid tie setup I am 100% reliant on my panels and microinverters to meet /...

Due to the UL requirement, yes... You are correct, most people are using them as off gird installations. Texas off grid guy on YouTube did his own installation at his house.

"It took me hours to write. I was pissed. All that information lost. If they'd just edited out that one link or made the contents available to me I could have and would have fixed it." So why be "pissed"? How come the information was then "lost"? Why not keep the data? That's my point. Seems to...

Ahhh... today commonly referred to as "Karen Syndrome". I learned this in Kuwait and Iraq. Their belief fundamentally is that it is better to" lie than create conflict". I don't agree with these values but am not about to have a "come to Jesus moment" with them either. I simply say "We're done...

Changing someone's words is not being "Excellent" to anyone. Deletion as a consequence of violating the rules should be understood and accepted by all persons posting on this forum. Changing intent or otherwise which takes away from the posters overall message is abuse of authority IMHO. In...

So in summary, avoiding the "YOU" allows an individual to escape from being held to "account" even if they were the party at fault. Well heck! Who don't like being responsible for their own actions?! The government, politicians, criminals, extremists, and people who drive solo in the car pool...

1. Laptop (Brand New HP Omen) DELL XPS :) 2. Fridge / Freezer (No Specific Model Set... Open to suggestions) Danfoss Compressor ICECO VL 65 or other (watch reviews on this) 3. Microwave (No Specific Model Set... Open to suggestions) Micro / Convection combo. Less wattage more cooking choices. 4...

If you are using the existing system on the rig, you need to find out what you are getting into. There are manufacturer schematics on line or you can reach out to the manufacturer and ask for a schematic. Braun, Star of Life and others should be able to provide you a schematic. This is important...

Nice rig! With regards to the "big wide roof for solar panels" it's not the area that is so important. Ambulances are one of the few vehicles that have decent structural integrity built into the framing of the side, front, and back walls that allow for substantial weight. They are also only one...

People could also offset weight by replacing heavy equipment with lighter weight equipment. A composting toilet weighs far less than a porcelain toilet. Plus, you can do away with the black tank, plumbing, dump site tools and Literally "Stop hauling at ton of crap around". Then offset that...
