It’s Friday Decmber 1 2023!

If you are a CDS Wireless customer, you may have noticed the Kenwood and Glenn Ellen areas had lost internet connectivity. I got in there remotely and gave it as swift kick. Looks good so far.
Agenda: I’ll be out at Cobb Wines this morning to do some fine tuning and testing on the 24-volt power plant. So far so good but I want to see it up close before the weekend.
Also, I think I’ll put together a video on the VastraMEDIA desktop / laptop phone. That might be a fun project to end this very busy week.
Have a great weekend!

Revisit with a new approach

I built a 24 volt DC power system and will make it a standard at every site.
 Well the power plant Fitzgerald Lane, Occidently was not completed. Not even close. I’ve decided to completely change my approach. I will be making everything a native 24 volt power system. No converting PG&E power to 12 volts, then to 24 volts via a triditional battery backup system. Instead it will be all 24 volts. PG&E’s job will just be charging the 24 volt battery bank. Less is more.

Happy Monday.

I’ll be upgrading the power system for another internet relay at the end of Fitzpatrick Lane, Occidental. Since we are held to a higher standard than PG&E, I’ll be making this one be able to withstand lengthy outages.


Also, I’ll be receiving this goody today:

This attaches to the Grandstream GXV3450 videophone. Bennett Valley Telecom has been a proud Grandstream dealer for nearly 20 years. I’m looking forward to testing this add-on module to my GXV3450 videophone. I’ll share the unboxing and installation with you.
