To big m,I tried to access your diagram.But A failed.

I just went back to the post in question and it loaded and ran as usual.  I've also come across the same problem with other users.  It works for me and not them.  No good reason why.
It was a hosting site with the retail inverter report from Creative Science uploaded to the server's hard drive.  Creative Science is always looking for a profit, so I don't know why Creative Science hasn't complained about it.

I didn't use an inverter most of the time.I found it simpler to use 12 volts all the way keeping in mind that any wire connections over 20 feet long would result in unacceptable energy losses.triffid

Right, that's true.  Very heavy wire/cable is required for lengthy runs.  Photovoltaic systems are a prime example.

With respect to your Reply #514:

My dad was an engineer who designed electronic instruments as part of his job function in the defense aerospace industry.  I did the same thing as you by looking over his shoulder when I was a teenager as he worked.  He retired and gave up that activity, except as a hobby, until he passed away recently.

We do have more in common.

Therese Neumann of Konnersreuth (Germany) did not eat or drink for 40 years. Documented.

@triffid
When I was a teenager in Southern Calif., a local rock-n-roll (KRLA, I think) radio station would regularly air documentary broadcasts involving New Age subjects.
One of these subjects had to do with the spiritual practice of raising the vibrations of the body to such a high level that the initiate stopped eating in public, for sure.  They may have been living off of spiritual 'prana' rather food eaten by mouth.  Prana is believed by the Hindus to sustain life.

More states like NV, CA and FL may resort to this tactic.  If they do the right thing and own up to their responsibility to cut costs, their residents will be more than a little unhappy, to make a staggering understatement.

As I said before, "There's no good answer" to this recessionary crisis.
