Re: Solar panel bargain...
Hi jansman, yes, the 100W one I've got is portable, though not bendy :) and comes in its own little carrying case. I have a modern power bank, with new cable, I've just bought, so it can be used to charge that (though it looks like twilight at the moment, at 11am, its so overcast!) I was wondering ...

Re: Solar panel bargain...
I've been doing a bit of reading because of this thread, about adding in a solar panel bought later - it sounds like the new panel has to be the same wattage as the existing panel. It *can* be different, but that needs extra care etc etc taken, and it seems much simpler to just get a panel at the sa...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
Jansman, sounds good to me. My rooms are small too - I have a few problems here in that the access for the water meter created a gap in the insulation that was boarded over, so its too big a job for me to do, and I'm loathe to get somebody in. But now, there's sort of rising damp in the middle wall ...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
My stores are undergoing a bit of a rethink too, not for any catastrophic reason like jansman's, but because I've been experimenting with sauces at a discounted foods supplier. It's not their fault, so I won't name them, but I don't like them :lol: garlic mayo, mango chutney (a huge pack of individu...

Re: My current prepping
The name changing helps,although where joint ( and married) there is no rush,as the law allows our relationship. The videos are excellent,especially where safety is an issue. ;) I forgot about the marriage bit, it made things a lot easier for my sister when her late husband died. But there's such a...

Re: My current prepping
That's an amazing overview, jansman. I really like the sound of the videos to help your wife, and a huge amount of trouble can be avoided by changing the name on the accounts, as you've already done. As an ecowarrior, though I'm wincing a little bit sorry!

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
I suspect that tins are a lot better than sachets for full meals. Simpler, with a long history behind them now. And absolutely, chuck the stuff you don't like the look of - this is no time to get food poisoning, yuck. Good luck
