Given papadave 's recent misfortune, I put up some motion activated LEDS-they glow dim dusk to dawn but kick out pretty good light when activated, will help out on those late winter night trips to the shed too

Awesome shed! Those lights will be helpful pulling from the shed and security. Im gonna check them out as well.
Thank you sir-I've been considering it a while now, just pulled the trigger with the time change looming and you know, I stalk the shed sometimes at night, just smelling the wonder of our obsession...
If I could post pics of proprietary electrical equipment, I'd swamp the site! Didn't get home til after 5 pm, started looking into a coworker's 2010 455... Chain don't stay tight. Putting in a new tensioner screw and such requires that little odd shaped plastic guide at the end of the screw shaft be installed in the correct orientation... That's the 1st thing I found.... No woodin' today... Tomorrow, Lord willing.
K buddy, guess you didnt get that half day off. I was rootin' for ya. Good luck and stay safe tomorrow, I'll be up a tree for a change instead of ripping one up.
Yeah... No chance I was gonna win the boss over after I finished two jobs earlier than he though thought I would! Hey Ash, kill some meat tomorrow, sir!
Not so great pics but shown full on and the difference between dim and bright-I like them but we'll see how long they last
That is a fine looking wood shed. How much does it hold? What are the dimensions if you don't mind. I'm still in the hunt for my new setup.
Thank you-it is 4x40, expanded metal flooring and shadow boarded ends, faces south and the prevailing wind is from the west...each bay, double row stacked 6' high is 1 cord, I throw uglies in btwn the stacks to 3' so stuffed full it holds 6 cords---
Once I figure out if the wood stove works in the living room which I am sure it will, I have to come up with storage of 12-16 cords. Roughly 4 cord per year.
Woodchuck the first two pics were at daybreak this morning, they burn all night and they went out about 5 min after I took pic-It is important to let them fully charge before burning them-they have a keyhole switch which you insert a little pin to turn them on before they will accept charge-Best to put them up and turn on first thing in the morning on a day you expect full sun-so far so good
Thats about what I burn-the rest of my hoard is up the field (See "Last cutting til mid-December" thread from yesterday)
Great idea! Look awesome! I need some here, Solar probably not work here thru winter but I have plenty of darkness where they'd come in handy Just might dig in a power line to the wood shed & fire pit next year. Like the motion light idea too
Sounds like the better plan bogydave solar lights would be screaming for juice there I would imagine-nothing like wired anyway but I get a lot of sun so giving them a try-take care my Mountaineer friend
