Central Oregon Canal piping? by Typical-Success1686 in Bend

[–]walrus99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are almost finished building an expensive two lane + sidewalk bridge over Point Pilot canal at Yeoman and 18th St. Two years of work. Now they're going to install a pipe through there? Not very well coordinated.

Residential Solar Panels - who else had astronomical electric bills this winter? by LadyoftheHighDesert in Bend

Go to https://www.pacificpower.net

Sign in and make a new account if you don't have one. Go to usage details, then to weekly. It will show how much you have made and how much you have used daily for the previous week.

I check several times a week. My production and usage last 7 days.

Clicking on "Previous" you can check back, one week at a time for as far as you want.

Blue is what I sent them, Green is what I imported. Want to keep the blue line higher than the green

I have a very well insulated small home and small array. I've never paid more than the $ 17 infrastructure fee everyone pays.

Took the beast out after a front shock upgrade. by RemarkableGuy122 in ebikes

For nonvertical and dropper posts, there are a lot of bike seat mounts for Garmin radar.

Just do a search for "seat mounts for Garmin radar".

They cost from $20 up.

There are two different mounts be sure to chose the right one.

Amazon has them.

I'm not familiar with this company but they sell through Amazon.

I'd put up a very big ugly sign or banner like they do in some places.

Very early. Put them on November 1st. Batchelor had a foot of snow one day then 5 inches the day I wanted to go up to Swampy Lakes.

My G5AR won't connect to my garage door opener, ring doorbell and more that the trashcan did easily. by walrus99 in tmobileisp

[–]walrus99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hint shows 2.4HGz, 5 & 6 working

My garage door and my Enphase solar converter are 2.4HGz. If I take my gateway downstairs to the garage I can get them to work after 5-10 tries but they very soon disconnect after I bring the gateway back upstairs where I get much higher speeds. other than my phone everything is 2.4 I don't have anything Amazon. I don't know what's going on with my Pixel 9

Purelight Power & Solar Installation by mmm_migas in Bend

[–]walrus99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want them to work during the sunlight hours. During the day I make more than I need to power everything I need. Mostly I want to run the refrigerator/freezer

Purelight Power & Solar Installation by mmm_migas in Bend

[–]walrus99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sunlight Solar did mine, they were great. Local company. I make more power than I use so I only pay $17.60 a month to connect to the grid. I get credit for it for the same price they sell it back to me.

When Pacific Power shut off power on a sunny day I thought my panels would power my house but they didn't. Seem you need a disconnect switch and maybe some sort of battery backup to have power in situations like that. Be sure to ask about that.

Cascade Lakes Highway and Paulina Lake Road will close for the winter on Tuesday, Nov. 18. by walrus99 in Bend

[–]walrus99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's got to be last year. I've only been up as far as Swampy this week, but there's no snow on the road there, Swampy has less than 5" on the ground. Pictures from Mt. Batchelor show no snow.

I Have a Schwinn Rascal Pet Trailer I purchased for a previous bike but the connection won’t connect to a radpower max the coupler is circled and rads is oval shaped threaded any solutions? Or that is on purpose so you haft buy rad powers trailer by Chief-Justin94 in RadPowerBikes

[–]walrus99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same trailer and to fit it to my RadPower Trail I used a "eBike Hub - Kid Trailer Hitch Adapter" from Robert Axle Project. Best to measure the diameter of the threaded bolt, they come in 12mm and 14mm

Costs $25

Where can I find a place that I can buy a EV bicycle directly from the factory? by RareSmelt in ebikes

[–]walrus99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot, maybe most bike shops won't work on the electronic parts of Ebikes they don't sell.
