I joined facebook.....
After getting my photography website up and going I have been approached by Lucas Oil for photos as well as Black Rhino for my facebook page.
And my response was...uhhhh I don't have one.
Well as of tonight I do.

But if you ever get the itch to go all out. Here is a write up I did on my solar install to charge my batteries and have plenty of room for future upgrades.

If you leave them hooked up long term. When you buy new batteries I wiould get a small solar charger to keep them topped off during storage. Nothing fancy just a simple solar trickle charger will do the trick.

I am with everyone else on here. Sounds like a grounding issue. Once it is started then it is self powered. But the current draw on the start is a big one and a bad cable somewhere will kill it when you try to start it. Your electric jack probobly doesn't have the draw like the generator and thats why it seemed to work with no issues. Did it sound normal when you were using it? A good battery and it will move quickly and a low battery or bad ground will sound much different.

GoPro just released the app for your Andriod. It was pretty easy to install. It works okay but not great. Indoors it was good for about 40 feet then the walls killed the wifi reception. I went outside and i was good for about 200 feet.
You can see on your phone what the gopro is looking at. When you start recording the picture goes away but you get a audio tone that it is recording and you see the timer counting up. When you stop recording you get the picture back. You can also change the settings on the camera from your phone as well as keep an eye on your battery power.
If you don't have the remote for your GoPro 2 but have an Andriod then your set. No need for the remote.

Dave- I would love to make it out there. But the fuel cost is about 1k just to get there and back. Trust me, being responsible SUCKS!!!
Atleast I don't have to wait in that line waiting to get my 4th ammendment rights violated!!! LOL

Bob- I don't think we will make Thanksgiving this year, I am trying all I can do to get out there but it doesn't look like we will make it. We had some issues with the house that ate up alot of our money and being the responsible dad we need to stay home. I think my only dumont trip will be Presidents.

Nice debating with you, No harm no foul, just opinions/facts! Next time I am out there, I have a beer for you!

Our work dogs can't "sniff" people. That is our policy. Now back in 1979 things were alot different. I am not going to argue that a handler can "cue" a dog into an alert. That has and alway will be a factor. But seeing a positive alert and finding 50lbs of pot from over 75 yards away when he got into odor is pretty darn cool.
Now if I told you close your eyes and I will throw a ball at you, but you don't know when. Then I never throw it. You will flinch in hesitation waiting for the ball to come. Why? Because you have information about something that is about to happen and your just waiting for it to occur. Same thing with those tests. They were told that there was a substance to be found and this influenced ( comprimised ) the search. We are taught to assume there is something to "find" in every search and when we come up empty then fine. Reward the dog for the work performed them move on to the next search and hopefully find the toy.
It's never going to be rock solid, why? It's a dog/man relationship here... Until people do the right thing in life there will always be a need for law enforcement.

Let me chime in on the dog aspect here.
The 20%-30% time they are wrong?????.... How do you know they were wrong? There is a positive alert where the dog shows by either a passive (sitting) posture or an active (scratching/barking) posture. When the dog "alerts" all bets are off as far as your right to not being searched.
Now the "false alert" is not really false. It is called a " non-productive alert" Let me explain. How do you know there werent drugs in there at any time prior? The dog is trained on the odors of controlled substances. The dog is trying to find the odor so he can receive his toy from the handler. Its a big game to the dogs of find the toy. The nose of a dog is very sensitve and can locate a very small amount of drugs but turn around a miss a ton of weed simply because he/she was never exposed to that quantity before and was overloaded by the scent. But a good dog that has "alerted" to big and small quantities is a great assett. I am not sure if all dogs are certified on "Oxy" just yet but they need to be. If you have a prescription then your ok, but if you have 3000 tablets then you either have a bad neck ache or your up to no good.
I see an issue with the mass presence of law at any given time. But the dog is always welcome in my eyes. If your breaking the law then don't go where your going to be caught. I got popped for fireworks out there a few years ago. I didn't badge my way out of it. I simply told the officer who I was as I got my wallet and he confiscated my fireworks and let me off with a warning. I would have taken the ticket if issued as I was knowingly breaking the law.
So in short, I would rather have the police presence there and deal with a longer wait time then not have them there if needed. If your know your rights and they ask you to search and you say no! Then unless the dog "alerts" they have no authority to hold you any longer than what their scope allows them to do. And by them stopping you, you are technically under arrest. But allowed until they complete their initial line of questioning.
Ok, off my soap box......NEXT
