RANGES OPEN, WITH NO LIGHTS

  • 11/16/2018
  • 11:00 AM
  • 11/30/2018
  • 5:30 PM
  • Both ranges

Ranges are open, gates work, but there is no AC power (lights are off).  

This event will be updated as conditions change, please check calendar prior to going.

DURING THIS TIME, PLEASE REFRAIN FROM CHANGING ELECTRICAL SETTINGS OR BREAKER POSITIONS.   DEBUGGING IS IN PROCESS.

Power is turned off because generator's automatic charge controller is on the fritz, propane tank is almost empty (delivery is late), batteries got too low and solar isn't enough by itself (<1Kwhr/day this time of year) to bring cells up from an over-discharge.

Club can't afford another offsite battery reconditioning effort  - disconnecting, removing, delivering and replacing >1k pounds of batteries.

We're working with Kohler to resolve controller, but their tech is gone until after Thanksgiving weekend.

Meanwhile, we're running the generator manually (whenever someone is available to monitor status) to try restoring battery charge to a maintainable level, so we can restart the lighting.

Please email if you are willing to help monitor generator, maybe we can restore power & lights sooner!
