We’ve been using Current banking for a bit over three years because it provides a really easy way to control over, and get great visibility into, what our kids spend their money on. There have been ups and downs in that time, mostly due to Current’s immaturity as a financial institution. But, where it wasn’t always perfect, that imperfection was […]

Considering the nightmare that many people experienced with the 1.9.0-1.9.2 UDM/UDM-Pro firmware releases, my upgrade to 1.9.3 was relatively painless. I did experience a few issues, so I thought it was worth documenting them, and what I did to fix them.

August 11th, 2020 was finally Solar Install Day. At least for me :). While I would have loved to catch those June/July rays, I definitely think it was worth the wait to get the system I wanted; and also I can’t say how long it would have taken for any of the other vendors either.

Last night, er… this morning, I was rudely awoken by my Google Home. But, I’m glad I was because one of our sump pumps had failed and there was water in the basement. What could have easily been a massive mess, was just a bit of water around the pit, and couple inconvenient hours as I pulled the pump out […]

As a technology enthusiast, digging into the underlying system specifications was of particular interest to me, both for the panel and inverters. I’m not going to get into detail around the inverter debate, but based on my research I’m solidly in the “micro” side of things, given the type of system I wanted installed here. Qualifying it that way, is […]
