Solar Up and Running

Received the part on Wednesday, had to work in the gallery on Thursday, so I couldn't install it until Friday.

I went up early on Friday and installed the last cable. I then hooked everything up and charged the batteries. I turned the system on and checked everything to be sure it was operating properly. The only problem was attempting to get my internet working. Two hours later it was still not working so I left.

Came back on Saturday and checked all the systems. Worked on the internet for another couple of hours, no luck. Sunday I moved back to my house. Finally, was able to fix the internet. All systems are working.

Reviewing more Pictures

Received and e-mail from the solar company, I should receive my part on Wednesday. Depending on the time they deliver it I may be able to install it. Otherwise it will have to wait until Friday, as I will be at the gallery on Thursday.

I was contacted by a friend to assist her in finding a painting for her new office. I will be going out to see what I may find for her.

Still going through my SD cards, here are some more photographs.

Gallery and Solar

Rearranged my photography in the gallery today.

On Monday, I went back to my house and started to hook up my new batteries. Four and a half hours to move 4000lbs of batteries, undo all the old batteries and hook up the new ones. Unfortunately, I found one cable that was corroded and am waiting for a new one to arrive. I then should have electricity, again.
