    Or we could do an initial meet at T&T between 7 and 9. Roll out at 9 convoy style, and go to lake. Spend majority time there. And have some lakefront bacon and tacos. I may be convinced to bring the pontoon out...

    Keep the fridge powered for a longer period of time without running it. And keep the AUX battery charged.

    Need to build a cover now, so I can easily cover it up when I wheel. Doubt it will survive the Texas brush....

    It wasn't bad actually. The panel itself is a Renogy, they usually run around 140. I got it during prime day for 99 shipped.

    The Charge controller was around 20 or so. Plus small stuff like connectors and cables.

    Kinda curios to try it out tomorrow and see what it does.

    Don't feel like going in today. Had to stuff my ass behind the rotisserie ovens at Costco yesterday while they had been going since 7am. Crawling out I backed into 4" stainless steel exhaust and burned the crap out of my neck.
    Kevin down.
