I went over to a party to get an inverter from a friend. Well, the party was a drag, there were about 16 LITTLE kids there, and a bunch of trekkies. It was alright chatting with the trekkies about how ferengis are greedy, but it was so $%#$ing hot!!!! There was no soda, and the kids just trashed the place. My friend was pissed because he had to clean up. Anyways I dozed off in some conversation about klingons and cats, and woke up to find that I needed to grab the inverter and jet home. Anyways I got home, and hooked it up to my little homemade charge controller/load regulator to find that it worked! I ran fluorescent lights, a fan, and a small green tv off of it!!!! Then my batteries croaked! Theyre on the charger right now, while I'm waiting for &%^*ing silicon solar to ship my &$#%ing solar cells!!!!!! *&%@!!!!! (Its been about a month since I mailed my payment!!!) Its all good. I topped off my 25ah batts with my small panel. I went to sleep at 6 when it had just cooled down, because I didn't sleep for the past 76 hours.
Well it was an amusing 4th.
How was yours?
