Rough life! However do you guys manage to cope?

That's a decent amount of solar! I have six 280W panels and a lot less sunshine than you guys, and most days I have enough juice to run fridge, lights, computer, fans, misc. If the sun's out, I can run

I'll bid $100.

If you're looking to power stuff directly off DC, there's a number of good little converters from Meanwell that'll take variable DC in, and supply nice steady 12/24/48V DC out.

Probably not a large number of Steemit users in NE Oregon - but I'd accept Steem (and other crypto) for payment at my ISP.

Losing track of back-burners? Multitasking is a myth, rapid task switching works okay but you're constantly playing catch-up. We need more brain-power... You're rocking it, though!

Yah, I'm an FG member :) As we get to the IT infrastructure stage I'll be working on that part of it.
