    mep-803a coolant temperature sender

    There's also this one that appearance wise matches what I bought a couple years ago under the part number (101586) listed above. Has a different part number now....not sure if something changed or if the vendors website is inaccurate...

    Feasibility of Solar Panel augmentation with existing MEP backup/additive power or just add larger genset?

    I do have a wood stove and we use it to augment the FHW oil fired heating system. We don't use wood exclusively but I keep a few cord on hand. Hot water is currently provided by the oil fired heating system. I am currently looking into heat pump water heaters and may switch over. Total cost is...

    Feasibility of Solar Panel augmentation with existing MEP backup/additive power or just add larger genset?

    All good sources of info Kurt. I would also point people to this site. Go to Playlists and look for Solar Power: Start to finish. https://www.youtube.com/@HomesteadEngineering My system is very similar to what this person has done, including using the Reliance Controls transfer switches so...

    Feasibility of Solar Panel augmentation with existing MEP backup/additive power or just add larger genset?

    I also have a non-grid tied system but I am not off grid. When I say non-grid tied I mean that I don't sell power back to the utility. I can however use the utility to charge my batteries. I have 9.7 KW of solar panels with another 9.7KW going up this week. I have 30 KWH of lifepo4 server...

    MEP 802 and 803 gauges

    This may already be common knowledge but I think Phaostron may be the original manufacturer of the V, Hz, and percent rated current gauges in these machines. Can anyone confirm? http://phaostron.com/meters.html

    Mep-803a performance - power outage.

    Kurt, how would you say the 1030 compares to the 802a in terms of noise?

    Replacement temperature gage for MEP-802 and MEP-803 sets.

    I posted this about a year ago. The Datcon part numbers below have worked very well for me so far. As far as I'm concerned there's only 2 types of Beede gauges. Broken and about to be broken. I have used all 3 of the following Datcon gauges. All have worked perfectly for me with the senders...

    Mep-803a performance - power outage.

    Never lost it here in southern NH. How much fuel do you guys keep on hand and how do you store it? I have a 55gal drum that I rotate through the furnace every 2-3 years. When stored I treat with biocide and Optilube XPD
