Pure Savage

Well done on the event - number pick up was quick, nice having some stalls at the end and some shade. Coffees, egg rolls and a coke at the end, lekker! Did have a laugh - someone from the deep South asked for milk alternatives, the alternatives were hot or cold

If anyone does want to join a south suburbs ride - 5:15 PJ to Chappies, Tuesday and Thursday.

Some people are pretty open just need to message them.

Strava, instagram, twitter, facebook, the hub.

What is the benefit of a formal club?

The only reason people would join a club is CSA you have to be part of one. I am part of outriders for this reason. Also, Southern suburbs and Town are clicky, goes against the club vibe. Then there are committees, prefer cycling groups to be run by a benevolent dictator.

You may need to check spam, should have gotten it by now

Interesting they just didnt pay out and end the claim. Then make it your problem to get the rim.

YES PLEASE

A question, my sister in law may be moving in next door. would it be possible to connect the inverter to a 3rd DB board? Just to power like lights and a plug circuit or two, depending on how many times we get invited over for braais.

Yeah, our system is a 5kw, so thought these should be fine for him.

I know they used flat but thick cables on ours, 2 only just fit in a 25mm pipe. From my install I think it was this:

Wait, dont all Southern Suburb people Park in the safety and familiarity of the Virgin Active, then ride through and afterwards pop in Bootlegger?

Very nice setup!! Great feeling to be off the grid

We still in that phase! Our tumble dryer has never been used so much!

I am going to look at getting a fan under the unit to start, as we had the garage door open and did not really help.

Does anyone just turn the tumble dryer on in the afternoon when you have excess solar, just for fun? Its like a nice white noise maker. #SolarProblems

I am just concerned about water proofness, I replaced the entire garage roof in December to remove the leaks. Think I could put it on the other side of garage and still have an effect?

I am concerned with the temp of the inverter as there are no external fans, just passive cooling fins and its getting warm, like 72 degrees warm. Any suggestions for some fans beneath the inverter to push air over the Alu fins? Thinking 3 PC fans that come on when gets above 60 degrees.

Probably not as its probably not theirs. The silver polo that ran be over to try and end my life was taken into police station for a day then returned as the person who tried to run me over borrowed his friends car to do his crimes. I asked, but if it was a gun he borrowed, would you give it back? Never they said... My Cannondale that was found at cash crusaders went to police station and then never seen again, that was held as evidence in my case.

My wife is loving the solar, when batteries are full and we have excess solar, she throws the towels in the tumble dryer guilt free without dimming the lights in the neighborhood. I think I also saw her turning on panel heaters...

Saw an article where they state its around a 50-65% drop in winter. My trees in the garden may get a pruning. Hoping as our consumption is lower should hopefully get by in winter, will be interesting.

Agreed, if they gave away the 2 way meters, thats 200l of diesel, how long does that last running those big generators for pumps?

Went down the rabbit hole of Sunsynk videos on weekend, If you great friends with your neighbour your could just get an inverter and battery set up and then when they would feedback to grid a second sunsynk could fill its standalone battery as if it was pulling power from mains or a generator, (Not through a charge controller). For pure back up purpose we could probably charge another 10Kw/h in the afternoon no probs.

Yikes, remind myself to never post close up pictures of my bike on the hub. That old girl has more chips than a MacD's
