I have found myself in need of some devices from time to time that I can't
seem to buy at a reasonable price.
Since I was laid up for a month and more, I began doing some research on
developing things I needed. Before I go into a bunch of work to try
to finalize these... I'd like to know if anyone else is interested...
1. IP addressable, 10/100 ethernet based voltage / charge /
temperature / monitoring and/or switching device. You
could monitor batteries, solar panels, generator, start/stop things,
etc. Cost: ~$200
2. IP addressable, 10/100 ethernet based thermo-electric generator,
fueled by propane, either remotely controlled, or operating on a programmable
basis - to operate as a backup power supply in conjunction with 12 or 24V
battery based DC systems. Would provide battery monitoring, as
well.
Approximate cost: $2500 for a 75 watt 24V system. Could
be made in 20, 50, 100, or larger wattage sizes - cost rises considerable with
power output. This would serve as backup for a solar/wind or
even for AC in conjunction with lead-acid batteries.
3. "crash detect and reboot" system. This would
connect via 10/100M ethernet to a network, ping a programmable IP (in fact,
several of them) and be able to power cycle dc or ac powered
equipment. Programmable as to how many pings to miss, how long to
power down, etc. Cost: ~$200.
Each of these devices would be designed to operate on very minimal power
and tolerate temperature extremes. North East Oregon Fastnet, LLC 509-593-4061
