May Measurement Day

At least the results for the Month for May are easy to calculate.  0 minutes of up time 0 KWH.

One good thing, my turbine was on the ground for the big wind storm that passed through two days ago. My local weather station is not showing up on the weather underground site. I wonder if the wind took down their anemometer tower.  I hope they come back on line, it was great having that very local wind speed reference.

Hopefully, Redriven will be here soon to program the new equipment so I'll have have some results for June.

New controller in today

A new Redriven installer was here today and completely replaced the controller in the garage. He also worked on the nacelle but we are not sure what he did in there.  He said a full crew would be back in about a week to get it running.

Letter from Chris Grant saying new Cards are ready.

I got an email  May 17 from Scott O'Brien (Redriven Sales) with a letter from Chris Grant. It recognized that the new design was taking longer than expected, but the new cards are ready for deployment. They will be scheduling upgrades in the next few weeks.




Also, they will reset the warrantee period to the date that the new controller cards go in.



We are ready for that upgrade and hope that this one is the one that will keep working
