Mangos and solar well pumps

I love mangos.  The mangos are just finishing here but there are still many to eat.  Yesterday I ate 4 through out the day.  Awesome!!  On the smal dirt road up to the farm we stop and gather a couple mangos at the good trees which are roadside.  Instead of road side fruit stands there are road side fruit trees.  Today I seek avocado.

Yesterday I worked on the first of the three solar projects we are doing.  It is a well pump system which is not functioning correctly.  The battery bank is possibly shot.  So we hauled it to a shop to have a guy charge the batteries.  The charge controlller isn’t coming on but it says it needs at least 9 volts from the batteries to function so I think the issue is the batteries.  We also have a grounding problem which we will fix.  The issue is the system isn’t grounded.  The  previous installer ran a ground to the pump but not to the midnight solar box where everything else grounds to.

Today we should recieve a shipment from the states that has taken about 3 months to get here.  It is a water pumping system as well but this one moves water from the main tank to a secondary tank.  The well pump fills a main tank and then the new pump will distribute wate to the next tank.

It will be a basic direct drive system which means no batteries.  This will be a simple system to put together.
