    Pup.... I spent some time on the Reolink site, I like their cameras, they are not the trail camera company trying to be a security camera company. Thanks for your update. What i could not find on their site was the monthly / yearly cell rate .?

    John, For that controller and panel..... Did you have to cut and splice the panel wires and screw them on to the controller and then cut and screw on the wire lead that goes to the battery...? Or... did it come complete..... like .... plug & play..?

    Good solar battery tender for ATV in shed..?

    I have to admit, my little harbor freight maintainer is not the best set up, it’s relatively clean, but I have it just vertical screwed to the outside of the shed. The new one I get, I plan on angling it to get more sun.

    Ya... Streaming services cost money, this is just a weekend place. Mark... those towers are nice, but a bit too high end for our TV watching. Although, we may look in to a small tri-angle tower/mast. Those channel master antennas are the way to go.
