Summary: Replace battery, inspect fence, clean solar panels, install conduit on tower.

Replace battery for floor system fencer. Inspect, repair and tighten fence line, clean solar panels for fencer charge systems on floor and tower. Clean solar panels on tower.

Install 1 inch conduit on tower for new power distribution system. Need connections to round corner into regulator box and 5 ft section to reach batteries at tower base.

--

Misc Notes:

We should consider putting 2-3” conduit on south west side of tower for signal distribution system. It will protect the cabling from solar radiation and cows & critters.

The fencer battery/solar panel at the floor system should be moved close to the main flux solar panels to remove it from shading.

Install 5 watt panel at Vaira fencer.

Clean all solar panels upon each visit.

Build voltage dividers and set up monitoring of all fence battery voltages. We should also consider getting a MD9 for the cr10x that act as the watchdog for the floor system.

Build simple volt regulator for the tower 23x solar panel -- it appears to be reaching 16 volts.

Order 60ft of battery cable for tower power buss.
