Notes on electronics and power

   

First of all we use USA style outlets

We run everything, including all our communications equipment on solar power with the exception of 2 refrigerators and our hot water showers which we run on propane. 12V lighting is available 24 hours a day although we try to conserve at night. 120V AC is available for charging for a few hours in the daytime.

In the last few years more and more people are traveling with electronic devices and we are just not equipped to handle heavy or continuous use of these devices. We are in a mountain valley, with the forest on all sides of the lodge and do not get a lot of sun, so please plan accordingly

We have always been able to keep everyone's camera batteries charged but, if possible, please bring extra batteries for cameras. Normally we only charge batteries in daylight. Extra memory cards are also a big help eliminating the need for extended computer use.

If you are bringing a computer or other electronic device please arrive with as full a charge as possible and plan on using only when absolutely necessary.

....gosh ........we all have become so dependent on these devices....

                           Hope to see you soon,
                           Liz and Abraham
