I just looked at my last post. It was dated year 2008. It is now 2023 and I have just given the genny a bit of spit and polish.
The magnet rotors resealed with Sikaflex - to keep the water aou. Some more killrust paint to stop surface rust.
A cable that I can hook onto to keep the tail furled when I don't want it running (Saves dropping it).
I cannot remember doing it but the blades look different. I do remember fiddleing with blades so that they stall at a lower speed, I dont need the peak power, just continuous power.
Did not realise it has been running for so long and boy have the trees grown in that time.
The tower position was selected near the big pine tree to shelter it from stormy damaging northerly winds which we can often get around here.
Still going strong
