Thanks Bryan! I finally figured that out... lol!! I'm old and a bit slow, but eventually I figure things out. Have a great day and thanks for watching!!

Thanks for watching!! I love it here!!

LOL!! Thanks Mark!! Yes, that was fixed shortly after the video was released. I appreciate your watching.

Thanks Tom !!!

Thanks for watching Charles. Yes, the wind sure does blow at night too. I have thought about it, and may add that in at some future point. That would also require a hybrid charge controller/inverter system since wind generators produce A/C current, whereas solar produce D/C current. The other issue here is constructing a base. Frost heave is a major problem so I can't just build a slab on grade platform. If you see the piers that the container is on, the deepest one had to go down 27 feet to hit solid rock! Even though I wouldn't need piers that are rated at 90,000# each, like those holding up the container, it would still require some deep piers to then support a concrete base to attach the mast too. It's definitely something to consider on down the road a ways. Thanks for the suggestion!!

They do make small DC models in 12, 24 and 48 V about 1000W that tie into Solar systems.

Thanks Penny!! I'm glad you liked it!! Progress is still slower than what I had hoped for, but what else is new... LOL!!!

Thanks John!! The only issue is that was Mt. Redoubt... LOL!!! Iliamna, yes it's visible from the property as well, is a bit farther to the south. I don't think I captured any of it in the photos... but then again, I've been known to be wrong... at least once a day... LOL!!

Thanks Michelle!!

Thanks Rob!! Are y'all still coming down to Kasilof later in the month? Did you get in touch with Sean yet?

@@thelonemoose4718 Yes we are. Driving Down Monday the 22 early in the day. I did talk to Sean and he is Game. Just need to figure a day.

@@curmudgeinnak Cool deal, just let me know!

Cool deal!! Thanks for watching!!

Great comments Gene!! Thanks for watching! Yes, I have purchased the batteries online via Lowes, and still use my 80 volt chainsaw for everything other than small brushy trees.

Yes sir John!! Thanks!!

Thanks Tom!! It's slow going, but it's getting there... but winter is also fast approaching... lol

I agree completely Scott! Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching!! I agree with you completely... but in the "disposable" society we live in nowadays, everything is stacked against reusability, especially of medically related equipment. It's all a huge scam to create profits for the companies who make, sell, and use these types of devices!! Corporate greed at work!!! and of course the FDA, which by the way is regulated by these entities (under the table that is), does the bidding of the corporations by creating regulations to prohibit reuse. Heck, for all I know, they probably also prohibit recycling of the electronics portions of the devices. What a waste...

Thanks!! They are very special babies for sure!!

Thanks for watching!!

Good morning John!! Yes, I'm still staying at the lodge, and it's in Kenai, so it's a 45 minute drive each way down to Ninilchik. Slow and steady is me anymore... no more high speed low drag... just low drag...lol!!

Thanks Tom!! Slow but sure!!

Hey Allie!! How's it going?? Yep, I'm up here now...until Labor Day weekend, when I fly back to TX to get another load of my "stuff", my 4Runner, and the remaining dogs. Then I drive back up here again, and will be here for the long haul at that point. Yep, I had folks doing work on the property over the fall and winter, and they did amazing work. Now the Sky Cabin is about 4' up in the air, thus the new name... lol!! I'm still staying in Kenai until the middle of next month at which time I have to move in to the container, ready or not. Over the new 2-3 years I'll be building expansion on it so that it will end up around 1400 sq. ft. when completed. You drove by huh??? You should have stopped and painted "Allie was here" on the walls... LOL!!! That would have been priceless! Take care young lady!!

Yep, Thanks Robert!! If there were no challenges then this would be a boring project, and that's no fun!! LOL!!!

Thanks John!! I'm trying to get on a more regular schedule and share the wonders of this Alaska adventure with y'all.

Howdy Dave!! No, I'd never heard of it until you mentioned it. I'll look into that. I don't know that I'll be able to find any of that up here in Alaska.

WOW! I just looked them up and those look AWESOME!! It looks like Midway Supply has some in stock, so I'm going to order them and give them a try. Thanks Dave!!!

Thanks!! It's all part of the Alaskan adventure!! lol

Hey Tyson!! Thanks for the message, and for watching. Unfortunately I don't know of any way to make them stay on... sorry!!

Thanks Tom!! No, I've never hunted moose nor had any moose meat... but I really want to do both, some day... lol!! Oh yeah, those moose were totally comfortable, and let me know right away who was in charge... lol!

Yep, they all did very well for 9 days on the road!!

Glad you enjoyed it! You are correct, the crossing could not have been a more smooth process. Prior planning... lol

Thanks Corina!! Yeah, slowly but surely...

Cool deal John!! Of course, come moose season this fall, they'll disappear into the hills... lol!!

Yes sir... LOL!! Blind dumb luck wins out over skill and planning every time... lol!
