    I doubt it. It’s kind of in the middle in nowhere, and it’s only been there for the weekend.

    That's a great question; PG&E just says its "out and investigating"

    We've never had a power outage (aside from a half hour outage last year during heavy storms)

    Even when someone knocked a pole out and took out power for the older half of the other side of town, we still had power here

    Solar generates electricity to give back to PG&E and gets credited to my bill; it's why we pay between $80-100/month on hot and cool months

    Includes running my shit in the garage

    Numbers were at 569 affected, to 520ish, now down in the 460 range

    Wonder where the fault is in the outage

    I was considering lowering it yesterday when I was in there. An easy ball joint flip.

    Change of plans, beer and garage time

    My MIL was supposed to come by this morning but with the power outage we cancelled; power is back on and I guess she just happened to have been in town so...

    *Edit* and she already left :rofl:

    @Speedytech7

    Those inquiries for a microscope netted me a response today. I replied stating I found one on eBay and that I no longer need one

    Come to find out the seller was a high schooler and he said he would just give it to me otherwise he's throwing it out

    So now I have one in hand and one on the way :rofl:

    Had to drive 20 minutes to pick it up and my only stipulation was that the light worked which I confirmed with my inverter
