Everything else / Re: Bad Solar Panel
« on: February 08, 2024, 07:35:22 PM »
The issue could potentially be fixed by replacing the bypass diodes in the junction box, assuming that's where the fault lies. These components are designed to protect the panel in situations like this, so it's worth checking out. Before attempting any repairs, consult the installation manual or reach out to a professional for advice. For more detailed guides and troubleshooting tips, solargenerators.to can be a helpful resource since they have many informative articles, or you can even contact them and ask for their opinion. Just remember, working with electrical components always carries a risk, so take the necessary precautions or seek professional help if you're unsure.

Look around for something like "Attach" or "Upload" when you're writing your post.

Other Slow Speed Diesels / Re: Kubota EA300

About those Kubota EA300s you found for $300-$500, that sounds like an excellent price, especially if they're in good condition. Kubota tractors usually lasts a long time and works well.

I got myself a 2007 KUBOTA L3940HSTC tractor for around $29,500, a good deal. I needed a new engine and found a Kubota V2403 engine on this website. It cost me about $2,500, which was reasonable. This site has lots of different Kubota parts and tractors. You can check it.

General Discussion / Re: Running A/C compressor with Listeroid CS

Running AC from a Listeroid CS sounds like a neat project. I haven't tried it myself, but it's always interesting to see creative setups. The cost comparison with the local kWh rates and making biodiesel adds an extra layer to the experiment.

 I don't have the Changfa R175 one, but I've had luck finding manuals on random forums or even shady corners of the internet.

I had engine trouble too and got help on boat forums. Someone recommended a solid Lister Blackstone guy.

General Discussion / Re: Utility trailer

That's quite an ambitious project with the Lister engine! A couple of years ago, I helped a friend build a mobile workstation for his ranch, and we faced similar decisions. The Lister's dependability is top-notch, and in our experience, its performance wasn't hindered by mobility. We just made sure the trailer was robust enough to handle the weight and balance.

For powering the tools, we went with the generator option. It was more straightforward to manage and gave us flexibility with different tools. And if you're on the lookout for a base for your project, starting with a used trailer might be a good idea. We found one that was sturdy enough to handle the weight and modified it to fit our needs.
