Better advise the NWS. They will put a special color over Hoppyland to warn the public. A nice fuchsia color maybe.
Oh, get to auto wrecker, they have an encoder motor sitting there. That explains the $100 price.
Nope, need whole case.
Usually sell for 300, got it for 200.

Solar trickle chargers in a car port/garage function. Anybody have input? It's only a garage on 3 sides, 4th side is shade cloth. Lexus with all the bells and whistles.

How many watts do you want?

Is 5-10W sufficient? The car has a rep for being a battery sucker when it's parked for 7-10 days.
Dont spend 20 bucks. The one i was looking at is 12”x18” rough guess. Up here about $80 on sale. I think it comes with a charge controller and is weather resistant. Wires are pretty small so threading it through a window or door to get it in good light is not difficult.
Testing for milliamp draw would be dilligent.
Also, check you manual for ignition off draw,in some vehicles its a fuse you can easily access and tug without completely removing.

Japanese high end electronics. About the only thing it doesn't have is an autonomous function.

That would be too complicated for the owner/driver.

This one is pretty good at 3.3w and it can be mounted on the roof of the garage with the optional 25’ extension cord.

This one is also good and gives you a range of power output levels by model.

I was just looking at the 1st one a moment ago. I must make sure that it has a hot lighter socket before taking the plunge.
Dave, maybe I missed it, but what did you think of the Peets coffee? I got more tonight.

It also works with clips directly on the battery.

It’s pretty good. A nice dark roast with full body flavor. I like mixing it with our favorite medium roast Wawa coffee to get a nice rich flavor that is reminiscent of dark chocolate. 1/3 MDB and 2/3 Wawa. The MDB is just a bit bitter on its own.

Mother's luxury ride. K I S S . Keep It Simple Syndrome. Have to find a "Remove before flight" tag for the cord.

Is the battery in the trunk? You can mount the leads on the battery and just unplug the extension cord. The cord can be just outside the grill, outside the trunk, near the rear seats, next to the shifter...anywhere. Just a pigtail extension to connect to the two pronged extension cord no matter where you place it.
The connection to the battery terminals can be made permanent. Like an eye ring on the clamp bolts.
Fire dept uses a plug that pops cord when engine is started.
