power to the people ~ right on

As promised, here it is.  The finished hybrid solar system.  All ready to be shipped off to the back of Woop Woop. 

Power to the people right on! (John Lennon).  The system consisits of 12 solar panels, 24 batteries and and a 5.6KW diesel generator – along with battery charger, inverter, solar regulator and quite a few other hoo dackies.

The beauty of the system is that it can be shipped anywhere, put in place and you have power.  No difficult set-ups.  Pretty much a plug and play concept.

So on to the truck tomorrow and then a 2hr haul West.  Don, the design engineer along with Ian, our auto electrician cum general whiz kid, will be following it out to commission it on site.  Pic’s when they get back.

Looks like they’ll have a good day for it after rain yesterday and possibility of showers today.  At least the weekend was a good one and looks like another good one on the way.  Plus a hangi!  Yumm.

If you don’t know what a hangi is, why not Google it.  And then try one in your back yard.  Well worth the effort I can tell you.  Just make sure you get the right type of rocks.  You don’t want exploding missiles to spoil your day.

Better do some work now, so…
