Have to say the unit is eating batteries albeit it rechargeable ones, 18650s are iffy but good batteries.
One not taking a charge now so in the bit it'll go..

Had it off overnight, just can't get USB ports to stay on when computers are off...

Alice?
of course, I mean heading to sleep and wonderland (dreamland) not the character..
handy for a midnight cuppa though..

alerts? 3 in last 15 mins as they all sent GM and WX texts...
Should it be as hard on batteries as it is, or have you stretched it to breaking point.

Would they stay live if the computer joins you at night, going to sleep?

You leave me with a Smokie earworm, with Alice. Never thought of "Through The Looking Glass", much less Wonderland.

Not as busy/as many as I thought. Thought it might be the constant beeping that stopped you sleeping.

Might give sleep a try....
think my power bank may be goosed, will try it on a higher drawing piece of equipment then bin if no good, one of the 18650s is not taking a charge so no playing about, it'll be out when I do my garden check....
oh well...
It could be 'Alice, Alice who ..........'
Off to check plants..

All we are saying, is give sleep a chance...
The solar power side still works though, for charging. No recycling for batteries. Plant it, try growing a battery plant on yer garden check.
That professor!
Hope they're all feeling okay.

Ono, sleep:laugh:
Must look for spare usb sockets on't back of towers...don't think so, too much going on:laugh:
Might have to invest in a USB hub...
I might even have one in the box of tricks....
Power bank charges mobile phone with no problem..
some do need a certain level of draw to work efficiently

possible G1-2 storm Thu and Fri evening being forecast, might take out Mrs M on an aurora hunt...
thing is these forecasts are less predictable than the WX ones....

No sleep, that'll make you grumpy and sleepy...
If yer needing to buy, have a gander at Sainsburys. They're restocking with USB 3, selling off the old USB stock. The new prices will make yer eyes water.
Your mobile phone! Thought you'd be all short range radio by now.
So it's not bin time yet for it.


Just don't let on that the best place to look is up.
Quick check got this,
"Over the next 24 hours, there is a 99 per cent likelihood of C flares, a 55 per cent likelihood of M flares, and a 10 per cent likelihood of X flares."

Seems like flares are back in fashion!!

I just said to Mrs M earlier that flares must be due back in the fashion sense...
I'd mentioned a jumper she'd knitted for me which I wore out (it was the late 70s),
I might still have the pattern for it.....she said :eek:
Check then knit one, purl one please..
Bottle green I think this time....

Snow on the ground at middle child's last night..
another icing sugar bag burst worth..
no latest report

She'll have a pair for yer christmas present, to go along with the sweater she'll be knitting for you.
If she doesn't I see a trip out coming up, or maybe just you doing a search for it.
Will bottle green match the flares?

Light dusting in parts down here this morning.
You've not stuck yer head out the door to check!

No luck as pattern only knits up to 46 in chest, old barrel bust here has no chance..
oh well..
Snow all disappeared overnight apparently..
I was out bringing the food bin in, that was it I'm afraid...
I had a look for an USB hub, I fitted one to one of the towers but what one and I removed it when fitting the new motherboards, it ain't in the glory box...
Fish night, yummy :cuppa:

You never know...
First few rows and a check for size and those needles could soon be clicking away.
Disappeared when it were colder!
Frost hasn't lifted in some places down here.
Was it yourself that put the food bin out?
No more outside after that!
Any port in the dark? There could be a hub in one...
Haddock or Cod?

Mrs M is in charge of bins....
first out after they are emptied, brings them in...
topped 5c just before midday then dropped to 2.4c just now..
I found four bluetooth dongles in usb sockets
I know what two do, wondering what the other two do...
Could only be haddock..

You muscling in on her ground now?
Never got that high here, and below zero as I tap away.
Backups for two that you know are doing something?
And you get two free ports when you find out they're doing not a lot.
Cod, when it's not too dear.

Nope, defined areas you can't cross...
Only -1.6c at worst overnight...
Library to get card sorted out soon...
think that might be my only visit outside...

Found one bluetooth dongle to remove:cuppa:
