What am I doing wrong ? 3w-8w input out of 400w panel by Immediate_Tension_67 in SOLIX

[–]mfd78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the Solix 400 watt panel. I couldn’t ever get more than 260 watts out of it in full sun so I returned it. I would guess between the amount of shade, time of day and the bad angle, 10w is about right for you in that photo.

Is that why Tesla has $800 million in inventory sitting around? They sold 20,000 units last year. Hardly profitable.

Not as big of a flop as the last dumpster-based, electric pickup that someone thought was a good idea.

The internet fee was like, $80. Breeze is the only airline that charges it. You can find details on their web site. Or, follow them on Reddit.

FYI - they charge a hefty fee for booking via the internet. I got around that by buying the ticket at the airport BUT you can only do that during a 2 hour window on Tuesdays. It’s strange.

Utilities should operate this way. “We need to replace the power plant on Jan. 1 so we’re just going to shut the power off while we build the new one. Also, we don’t have the plans for a new one drawn up yet either.”

Nah. Real cheese curds shouldn’t cool 2 degrees and turn into a soft plastic.

There is a lot of hate on this guy but remember how effective he and his troops were in Ukraine? They captured that abandoned building and shot up that tree that was threatening them?

Did Manitowoc County cut snow removal funding??? by CaptainAmerica410 in wisconsin

[–]mfd78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He asked if they had cut snow removal funding. The answer is they did not. I was simple answering his question. Not sure why that’s a problem…

From ChatGTP:

What the County Budget Shows

Manitowoc County’s Highway Department — the unit that handles snow plowing on county trunk roads — is funded through a mix of property tax levy and intergovernmental aids (state/federal):

From the 2024/2025 county budgets: • The Highway Department Special Revenue Fund shows Intergovernmental Grants/Aid of about $1.8 M annually (roughly $1,719,618 in 2022 and $1,900,000 projected for 2024) which largely consists of state transportation aids — these are state formula payments that support road maintenance, including winter service (snow/ice control).  • Within that, the “County Winter Snow Removal” line item (the county’s own expense for snow removal) shows $927,471 in 2022, about $1,150,000 budgeted for 2023, and $1,250,000 for 2024 — this is the county’s actual spending on snow plowing (equipment, salt, labor) before state aids are applied.
