I just watched the Midnite B17 smoke test video . Though when I first saw the title I  thought it was going to be the real smoke test where it gets over loaded until is smokes !

I like the part about sending a video.
We are also working on another less expensive battery based inverter. One name that has been passed around is "Little Willy"

We had the same type of day here. Started early doing yard chores. Just finished 10 hours later. Tomorrow plant the garden. Can't wait to get back to work. This yard work stuff is hard!

I got to say hi to the Midnite crew at the Midwest Renewable Energy Fair this weekend at Custer , Wisconsin  and see the one of the prototype new inverter / charge controller units as well as some of the other new and old Midnite products.  They are a very knowledgeable and helpful crew for sure.
