  1. Thanks to everyone for the great fan feedback. Bonus points to @Calypso for providing the answer to a need I wasn't aware existed until I showed my wife the photo he included in his response showing the location of his fans. Evidently we need two of those armchair cushions too. David
  2. Anyone have a fan solution for the Elite II twin configuration where each twin bed has its own dedicated fan, preferably with remotes? Perhaps an odd request, but there are limits which must be addressed in order to maintain a more perfect union, establish justice, and insure domestic tranquility. David
  3. For sure. The old saying holds true, "A solution in hand is worth two at Amazon." 🙂
  4. Something to be cautious about when comparing battery powered inverter solutions such as a Jackery vs. APC UPS is that they have different design goals and their labeling/marketing typically does a poor job in clarifying those goals. APC provides a runtime graph for the performance of the APC Smart-UPS C 1500VA under varying loads. At its max load of 900 watts, the graph indicates its runtime at 4.7 in minutes. Jackery indicates that the Jackery Solar Generator Explorer 1000 will power a 900 watt electric grill for 50 minutes. I found the APC Smart-UPS C 1500VA on Amazon for $377.54 and the Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 1000, 1002Wh Solar Generator for $999.99. So the APC UPS is 37% of the cost of the Jackery but with only 9% of the capacity at a 900 watt load. Still, considering all that, if what you have meets your needs then you've solved the equation but if you want to cook breakfast on an electric grill with the APC UPS you may need to consider having cereal instead. 🙂
  5. This is why good threads never die. Great layout and a tremendous example of a customizable approach to storage.
  6. The cost savings packages offer a discount for bundled options. Seems logical that removing an option from a package would also remove the discount so the shortest path for someone to get just the options they want is to just individually list the items from the package that they want. All the options in the cost savings packages are listed individually on the build sheet. Simplicity in specifications is the best way to avoid Murphy's law. 🙂
