Re: [WISPA] non-grid power
The best is a mix of solar and wind. I know of some that use propane too. I've never done it either though :-) Marlon (509) 982-2181 Equipment sales (408) 907-6910 (Vonage)Consulting services 42846865 (icq)And I run my own wisp! 64.146.146.12 (net meeting) www.odessaoffice.com/wireless www.odessaoffice.com/marlon/cam - Original Message - From: "Matt Liotta" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "WISPA General List" Sent: Friday, February 03, 2006 7:52 AM Subject: [WISPA] non-grid power Just wondering what others have done for non-grid power options at towers.

Re: [WISPA] non-grid power
Currently powering four Trango radios @ 24v with about 3A draw total. The problem is the draw is 24 hours per day, so it adds up. The other problem is the location is at 9,000ft elevation and currently has over 10feet of snow. :( Travis John Thomas wrote: What are you powering?
