Good morning Diana, and thanks for watching that video. Yes.. I was a typical dumb guy and didn't read the directions first...LOL! The lid definitely goes the other way.

Good morning John and thanks for watching. Honestly, I don't know enough about it to know how it works, I'm no electrical engineer. In a lot of other videos I've watched about the device prior to getting one, it was always described as taking "dirty" power and cleaning it up so it could be used then used by the Charge Controller inverters or directly to the battery. I appreciate your comments, and over time it's something I'd like to learn more about.

Thanks for watching!!

Thanks!

Thanks Michelle!!

Thanks Rob!! For some strange and miraculous reason, Amazon actually delivered the ones I had ordered 2 weeks before their "expected" delivery date. I'm ordering a couple more sets of those so that I'll have them handy when it's time to put the new solar system into operation in the spring/summer.

I though about that, but didn't know where there might be one.

Thanks Rob!! What you don't see at the bottom of the sweater, it says: "And My Dogs", then has 4 pup figures with their names... LOL!!

Happy New Year Penny!! It has been a really mild winter up here, so far. The dogs and I are staying warm and safe in the container, all is well.

Thanks John!! Yep, it's definitely been overwhelming at times, but the dogs and I are doing very well. It'll get better from here on, and I'll get back into the swing of videos again.

Thanks Bryan! I finally figured that out... lol!! I'm old and a bit slow, but eventually I figure things out. Have a great day and thanks for watching!!

Thanks for watching!! I love it here!!

LOL!! Thanks Mark!! Yes, that was fixed shortly after the video was released. I appreciate your watching.

Thanks Tom !!!

Thanks for watching Charles. Yes, the wind sure does blow at night too. I have thought about it, and may add that in at some future point. That would also require a hybrid charge controller/inverter system since wind generators produce A/C current, whereas solar produce D/C current. The other issue here is constructing a base. Frost heave is a major problem so I can't just build a slab on grade platform. If you see the piers that the container is on, the deepest one had to go down 27 feet to hit solid rock! Even though I wouldn't need piers that are rated at 90,000# each, like those holding up the container, it would still require some deep piers to then support a concrete base to attach the mast too. It's definitely something to consider on down the road a ways. Thanks for the suggestion!!

They do make small DC models in 12, 24 and 48 V about 1000W that tie into Solar systems.

Thanks Penny!! I'm glad you liked it!! Progress is still slower than what I had hoped for, but what else is new... LOL!!!

Thanks John!! The only issue is that was Mt. Redoubt... LOL!!! Iliamna, yes it's visible from the property as well, is a bit farther to the south. I don't think I captured any of it in the photos... but then again, I've been known to be wrong... at least once a day... LOL!!

Thanks Michelle!!

Thanks Rob!! Are y'all still coming down to Kasilof later in the month? Did you get in touch with Sean yet?

@@thelonemoose4718 Yes we are. Driving Down Monday the 22 early in the day. I did talk to Sean and he is Game. Just need to figure a day.

@@curmudgeinnak Cool deal, just let me know!

Cool deal!! Thanks for watching!!

Great comments Gene!! Thanks for watching! Yes, I have purchased the batteries online via Lowes, and still use my 80 volt chainsaw for everything other than small brushy trees.

Yes sir John!! Thanks!!

Thanks Tom!! It's slow going, but it's getting there... but winter is also fast approaching... lol

I agree completely Scott! Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching!! I agree with you completely... but in the "disposable" society we live in nowadays, everything is stacked against reusability, especially of medically related equipment. It's all a huge scam to create profits for the companies who make, sell, and use these types of devices!! Corporate greed at work!!! and of course the FDA, which by the way is regulated by these entities (under the table that is), does the bidding of the corporations by creating regulations to prohibit reuse. Heck, for all I know, they probably also prohibit recycling of the electronics portions of the devices. What a waste...

Thanks!! They are very special babies for sure!!

Thanks for watching!!

Good morning John!! Yes, I'm still staying at the lodge, and it's in Kenai, so it's a 45 minute drive each way down to Ninilchik. Slow and steady is me anymore... no more high speed low drag... just low drag...lol!!

Thanks Tom!! Slow but sure!!

Hey Allie!! How's it going?? Yep, I'm up here now...until Labor Day weekend, when I fly back to TX to get another load of my "stuff", my 4Runner, and the remaining dogs. Then I drive back up here again, and will be here for the long haul at that point. Yep, I had folks doing work on the property over the fall and winter, and they did amazing work. Now the Sky Cabin is about 4' up in the air, thus the new name... lol!! I'm still staying in Kenai until the middle of next month at which time I have to move in to the container, ready or not. Over the new 2-3 years I'll be building expansion on it so that it will end up around 1400 sq. ft. when completed. You drove by huh??? You should have stopped and painted "Allie was here" on the walls... LOL!!! That would have been priceless! Take care young lady!!

Yep, Thanks Robert!! If there were no challenges then this would be a boring project, and that's no fun!! LOL!!!

Thanks John!! I'm trying to get on a more regular schedule and share the wonders of this Alaska adventure with y'all.
