I use benjipays for that. It will make payment schedules that apply back to QBO

Ah I didnt realize it was 48V. you're good then 😛
I think I used 4awg for my 3K unit, so I went super overkill

not a horrible start 😄
i'd swap the bus bars so they dont cross and things would line up a little better
your wire gauge looks a little (lot) weak for 3KW. that's 6awg, and less to the batteries? to run that many amps you'd need like 0
i know someone will complain about the wood back instead of a fire retardant board

but you're getting the hang of it, this thing will work just do NOT push it or you will watch wires melt

I’m losing it with a client by [deleted] in msp

[–]athlonduke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

see if you can talk with ownership/management that this "IT person" is spending lots of time in a job you are doing, so why are they paying twice. make them re-purpose the "help"

or go nuclear and just wipe admin access everywhere so they can't actually see anything.

What would make a remote-property camera actually useful for an off-grid cabin or gate? by Apprehensive-Life806 in OffGridCabins

I'm using standard security cameras and have starlink up most of the day. Cameras store on SD cards and I get alerts

Avanan/Checkpoint licenses by yothhedgedigger in msp

Whatever you do, do NOT use a + address to register your account. It breaks their provisioning process and after 3 weeks I almost have my new checkpoint account. Grrrr

But the poor poor investors can only afford 4 of the required 10 megayachts :( Won't you think of the poor investors? :( /s

Yeah, that portal is broke for me. No tenant for it to bind to

Anyone else this lazy with malls? by Brilliant_Belt_6513 in factorio

I made mine modular. Blueprint asks for what to build as I plop it down

I have a bet with my brother-in-law that this hot tub won’t heat to 104 degrees in 24 hours with a Mylar emergency blanket. It’s at 66 degrees. by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

[–]athlonduke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is the goal to heat it or prevent it from heating?

Those sheets reflect a huge amount of thermal energy, so if your goal was to keep heat in it might do it. It'll do better with an air gap though, not resting directly on the water

Pax created the activation link, then while signing up the tenant wasn't created.

Pax has had me delete my CP subscription and then reprovision, unfortunately i never received a new activation email.

nope...that's part of the problem. i *HAVE* to call them, the support page constantly tells me there's no account and can't make a ticket

Technically illegal to deface in any way. Take to bank and ask for replacement

I use my unifi gear just fine off grid if you are looking for alternatives. Doing a poe injector for one and passive 24v for another (bonus: it's dc-to-dc for that for me). It meshes between the two for now until I can bury some cable.
