Huggies?

Really?

Haha yeah, several boxes are huggies actually, many still at the storage unit LOL Shows how long I've had some of that crap

I heard they make a good makeshift battle wound dressing just like tampons and wondered if you are a prepper?

Don't ask how I know this stuff.

Still haven't fixed the "power" graph issue for charging via the other supply, but at least the thing is holding the magic smoke and fire in now, and current limiting works correctly... baby steps, right?

Fixed the math, now need to integrate the hall current sensor so I can keep track of the load during grid charging... right now it hides behind the green...

I've also started mimicking solar to get back into the groove of managing power... The grid spoils one readily ;D

For a second my heart skipped a couple a beats but then what I was looking at wasn't an 8hp Briggs horizontal shaft engine near the left end of the pile.
But just a squirrel cage blower.
  Just the thought of someone throwing a Briggs in the trash to me is unthinkable.
LOL.
  .......You are selling that stuff to a salvage yard I mean the metal ?
wondering how much weight ?
  Just sold an old bathroom basin and other weighty junk last week ....didn't
look like much but got $14 for the lot .

Norm - Naaa, the junk guys stalk the hood for metals, I figure that's fair game. The stuff barely hit the pavement and they were scooping it up, like within a half hour. Way I figure it, they make a little cash and I don't have to cart it off. The rest the city picks up and hauls off.
