  1. Once again I find myself in a "hurry up and wait" situation.

    We're supposed to be getting a house battery installed. In preparation, I actually forced the server rack to charge the batteries overnight (it finished at 04:00) because yesterday was a crap day for solar. The sparkies are supposed to be here at 10:00AM.

    It is now 12:02PM… just got a text message that they're now on their way here.

    The plan is that we'll be decommissioning the ~2 year old solar inverter and re-routing the power from the mains panels to the new inverter on the battery. We'll also be installing a new circuit for the laundry, which will take the two biggest loads (washing machine and dryer) off of GP1 where the fridge will ultimately go once painting finishes.

    There's a spare CT currently unused in the power board… and I've got three more in a box. Programming the meter will take only a moment (CET's PMCSetup works fine in WINE).

    This is the calm before the storm.

  6. This week at work we are playing the biggest game of #HurryUpAndWait I have 50ish electronic boards that I have to power down, remove chip, wait 20 minutes, install chip, power on, go to server, download data to electronic board. If it doesn't accept the download, repeat with a 40 minute wait. All work is overnight work
