My Actifit Report Card: November 17 2020
Can you leave a light on Silvertop?😲
What time is it.....8:00 AM and time to start the day!
Then the wind started....
When you live in the forest in the Northwest this is a warning, to get get up and get a shower quickly!😲
Silvertop has a very powerful solar array, but my deep water well runs on 220 volts. This is the only thing that doesn’t run on solar. We always have “something “ on grid electric so we can keep an eye on power outages...... and then it happened, just before I turned on the water!😳
The power is out Liz.....🤨
Down in the large town of Bellingham some power was out too, that’s not good!
Being off grid we are always prepared. We have a portable propane shower, and we always keep about 40 gallons of sealed Chlorinated water on hand, for these Winter storms!😀
So today was camping Lol!🤣
The Mrs asked “Did you even think about building a boat...☺️”
This is early for High wind storms. With Corona lockdown’s starting today we made a run to pick up some more propane in town for this portable hot shower.
I snapped the third photo when this 18 wheeler pulled out in front of us, and almost totaled our car!
I never thought about snapping a photo before, I am sure the truck driver saw me......Hmmm.....🙂
Home finally, the solar batteries were still at 100% full... nice!😎
The sound of Generators were echoing through the neighborhood.
Liz was running the Expresso machine, and the house is toasty warm....Nice!😊
Till tomorrow Silvertop is hoping for a dry day.....

How is your solar energy performance on less sunny days?
Today was about as gloomy day as we get. I have four separate array's totaling 6.3Kw with four computers that seek the best voltage (MPPT's) (Maximum power point trackers). The Sun was almost gone, most of the day, and the batteries were at 100% full. The days are still getting shorter, it will get harder to fill up the batteries, but we are almost to the Winter Solstice. Then it starts to get easy my friend!😀
Summertime I A/C the house, so much surplus!
Interesting, solar energy is gradually picking up here in South Africa though still expensive to install.
I think the prices will continue to fall, it's just a matter of time Joe.....
I think so too
Great stepping @silvertop, and wow what a day you had, from the power going out to almost get run over, I sure hope that tomorrow will be better, thanks for sharing, it's awesome.

Thank you so much, It's a good feeling to have Independent electricity!!😀
Whew! I feel like I just watched a full action movie in just the report I read here! LOL...So glad everything worked out in the end, though. I think that is great that you're using independent power sources. I would love to do that but since I rent, I can't. But my dreams of a tiny home with a back up alternate power source are still in my heart. :)
I enjoy your posts! Keep up your great work & sending blessings your way! 👍🙂💚

Ahh.. off-grid does have its advantages!!!
Very much so @silversaver888!!😀 When we moved here in 2000, when the power went out it was a trip to town to spend the night, and all of the food in the freezer went bad. so nice to be Power independent my friend!!😍😍😀
Power is that thing that brought us "civilization". There is nothing stopping you now! 🥰🌺🤙
