    Hi Dan, your v-blogs showing the life of a owner operator are enjoyable as well as informative. As a non-professional trucker, the various ways you secure the loads are a tremendous asset to me when I need to transport small items, mainly construction lumber for home improvement projects. The concepts of securement is what I find helpful. Thanks for the time to film and upload the videos.

      Until the transmission line is built, they don't need to run. Kind of like a car doesn't need to have the engine running if it's parked in the garage.

    • @patrickinottawa27
      @patrickinottawa27 Год назад

      My understanding from wind power for off-grid cabins etc. You have to have a way to either use (Charge batteries) or dump the excess power that is generated, otherwise it damages the generator. These units are probably locked-out till the site comes fully online. Feeding power into the grid is a coordinated task, or you'll start tripping safeties.

    • @fredflintstone8048
      @fredflintstone8048 Год назад

      @@patrickinottawa27 Those windchargers are not for off-grid use like a cabin, so that's off topic. The units in the video are much larger and far more complex. Regarding large wind chargers like the ones in the video they have transmissions on them that allow them to control the output Levels precisely so the level of voltage and current as well as the frequency that they supply can be varied.
      It's true that the voltage levels on the grid have to be kept within a certain range but most of the grid controls around the world make as much use of wind and solar as possible.
      I also noticed that they're facing in different directions as well as that there is no wind. Which tells me that before they stopped turning the wind probably wasn't coming from a consistent direction. If the wind had been blowing they would have all been facing the same way.
      Again, for the sake of ROI wind chargers are used at much as possible and the fossil fuel plants will back off supplying the grid to make use of them. They only have so much life in them so they need to be able to report as much power production from each one as possible to satisfy the investors. I know this because I've been involved in writing the software that tracks that.

    Dan Dan the professional flat deck man. Living and driving out of Canada I always had to have 2 to 3 different types of clothing with me in the winter. As I got further south I would start to shed more clothes. It was nice getting away from the cold snowy North to the tea shirt cowboy boot south. You sure do get around. Running flat deck I always seemed to be delivering loads to out of the way places. Usually never paved just dirt and dust. That Kabota load sure had you working at tying down. That’s the thing with running decks you always got some kind of excerise. Nice video Dan. You have a great and a safe day. Happy trails and happy motoring.
