  1. Me too! I want to live like at home and not have to run a generator. I have figured out how to put multiple quotes in one post on the other board, but not here.
  2. First, you never go on the roof during wind, and second, I leave them up. Those mounts are strong, the panels aren't going anywhere. What's kind of annoying is if the wind is blowing directly at their backs, they're like sails and make the RV rock more.
  3. On a flip phone? I guess we won't know what the OP's plan is unless he returns. 500 texts would be virtually 'unlimited' for me.
  4. Allow me to rephrase. I've never heard of a *current* cell plan that does not have unlimited talk and text. I doubt the OP has a plan from 20 years ago.
  5. Or those who are physically capable of doing it regardless of age.
  6. I rarely make reservations. When you're mostly a dry camper you don't need to, because all the newbies are looking for hookups. They don't know a water pump from a watt.
  7. I've never heard of a phone plan that didn't have unlimited talk and text. I'd much rather get a reminder text than a call, which I'll likely miss and it'll go to voice mail, which I have "disabled" by allowing it to fill up to capacity because of all the spam voice mails, and Verizon's incredibly slow and annoying announcements about each message. I've also been seeing an increase in Spam texts. I guess the law doesn't matter to these people.
  8. I get up to 50% better harvest when tilted, but sitting in high winds blowing directly at their backs is not pleasant when they act like big sails and make the RV rock pretty good... which is where I am right now.
  9. So you wouldn't consider any kind of heating for them?
  10. You won't replace with Li batteries? Used to live in Ephrata and enjoyed those very low power rates.
  11. My Victron BMV-712 bluetooth is good for about 40'. The one little quirk is that it insists I have Location service turned on on my Android phone. I guess Verizon's updates or checks turn it off. Kinda annoying.
  12. I think it's more like 2.5 miles.
  13. this may help https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S-Phones/How-do-I-allow-a-software-update-over-mobile-data/td-p/1217920
  14. If you don't like your neighbors within spitting distance you may find the pay areas more amenable. The Hi Jolly free area, for example, is usually wall-to-wall, and I imagine now it's pretty crowded.
  15. Scientists get paid just like everyone else.
  16. The only extreme I concern myself with is the Co2 concentration which has not risen to levels this high, so fast, in several hundred thousand years. Everything else trends toward guesswork and political noise.
