When the power goes south, it runs part of the house with power.
The freezer, refrigerator, ceiling fans, front gate, security system outdoor lights ect..
The nice thing is that there's no fuel involved, since its always sunny here.
I already used it with the Hobart 210mvp welder to weld some doors on the building going up.

Eco-flow is one of the good solar company's, that stand behind their products.

Willy, who buys solar if they didnt have a lot of sun?
In Texas where you are there's lots of sun.

If we didn't have sun the year round here, I would not of purchased it.

Besides that we have a Yanmar 12kw diesel gen set that will run the whole place.

Two new batteries for the 3500 diesel.
Made it back with a load of wood yesterday . Tried to restart it to be ready for today and dead again, left a charger on the batteries all night and it made 1/2 a revolution and dead again.

New batteries installed.

Have to blame myself on this...
After installing the new batteries I washed off the old ones

One of the two batteries was a Top of the Line NAPA battery.
It failed with a shorted cell.

The funny part... Date code :


6th month of 2009......


WOW that was a LONG LIFE.

That Looks Like New. Excellent score.

The ultrasonic cleaners are great to have. Just saved a propane torch that would not light pulled the tiny (Plugged) jet out and gave it about 4 minutes and works great again.
