Now I have some spare time again, need to get the obs operational again - first step - solar charge the alarm battery. We have both become sick of the 240V cable running across the grass to keep the SLA trickle charged.

Equip - Powertech 10W panel from Jaycar, solar regulator, scrap Al angle.

I still will need to plug the obs in when using it, but now the battery will stay charged without unsightly cables and mucking about......
