    I have Victron and absolutely love the app so I can read how my solar is working on my phone. I have to be by the van to use it. I can’t open the app and use it say inside the shed. Gotta be close to van but I love it. Happy for you.

    Debra I find you receive in life what you give. You are cherished and your heart and intentions are always in a good place. I have no family and I live by myself. A few friends and besides them I have no one. I have been in poor health and I drive myself to the Doctors and hospital. You have helped me with my struggles for the last nine years. I thank you. I am happy you have people who adore you and are there for you. Wishing you a awesome 2026.

    Hi Debra. This is Peter with my four legged wonder; Kodiak. "wolf (woof) hybrid". I'd like to encourage you to continue talking also about your health issues if you feel you'd like and feel if it's appopriate. I as well as others are here to support you in this. These are authentic people who I believe would assist you in a moments notice. I understand you well re having TBI. I have Meniere's Disease - a nerve disorder with relentless roaring sound emanating from the inner ear, I am deaf to one side but the problem is radiating to the other side. This condition predisposes with vertigo, so I used to have horrible cases of nausea. When the barometric pressure changes, the problem exacerbates, inner ear pressure increases exponentially. It is non-stop............ There is no treatment for it available so far. I look "normal" as if I have zero issues, but I "keep on keep on" - just like you! So, if you need to talk to "us", please do so. You are amazing!!! Thank you for all your videos. By the way, it was a mere 28F this evening here and during the day it is 34F in the Northwest. You are blessed to have 84F as I heard you say so. Also.............as an added plus, you may wish to have all your ground cable straps checked in/under your RV as any damaged can and would incur issues with onboard electronics causing intermittent voltage drops or no connectivity at all. Greetings from Washington. 😊

    Hey Debra. I’m glad with the help of friends you were able to get the issue resolved. True friends through the good and the bad. That’s what it is all about. I highly respect the channels that show the good sides and down sides. It’s much more realistic and relatable to me. Here you are having a bad day and there are some wonderful things going on around you. You are truly blessed with friends and they are truly blessed to have you as one. Bring on the next ordeal! 😂
    By the way, I heard every word and I didn’t understand it either. I have. “man skills” whatsoever.

    For the first time in a long time I got a notification and a huge shout-out to your friends they're just wonderful folks. We all have a challenging day from time to time and we all need help every now and then thank God you have such good friends they're hard to come by . I'm disabled and still work a few days a week I'm blessed with an understanding boss 2 weeks ago I got cellulitis and Leukocytosis was almost septic and it's still not gone but my white cell count is back to normal I have 4 more days of antibiotics and I'll be glad when they're gone I'm sick from those. I really have no one everyone is about self these days. My granddaughter who is 21 lives with me but she's never here but did come home to help take care of me some you know how these young people are they're lazy and have no responsibility. Praying you feel better soon 🙏🏻.

    The good Lord knows we all have DAYS because we all have something we deal with. Some days I just walk in circles it seems because I can't function with all gears. I have emotional days and pain days. Good friends accept us, warts and all. If I had ear tubes in my ears, I would take a mini get away and go meet up with you guys and meet you finally. My ears are broken, have been for decades. Elevation is my worst enemy and keeps me stuck here. It's frustrating, I know, when you're not feeling up to par with others. I saw your video and said to myself, well that's all over my head. My brain didn't keep up with it either, so don't feel bad. I hope you have fun in Phoenix.
