Hi Dan,
What am I not understanding?
What is all the furor over LED if this is correct?

I second on the quality of the APRS World DC LED fixtures too Ryan. Just
put a couple in here and they are working great. The ones I got are
built-ins only though--not an Edison or 1159 bayonet. Wouldn't want to
light a whole room here with *any* LED fixture, but these are nice
undercabinet lig
Ok the first one bounced back? The good people at APRS World make LED
lights and they are very high quality. I have checked out some that
where installed and they seem to be a great little product here is a

Hi Daryl
Ed Eaton (SEI Instructor) builds and sell a line of LED lights for 12,
24 and 48 VDC. - haree...@yahoo.com is his email address.

Ray;
I concur on the Thin-lites for DC FL. Bomb-proof.
I've had better luck than you on the Shur-Flo pumps it seems -- 3-5
years each in full time service, then needing a diaphragm rebuild kit
(cheap). I think I have about 8 of these installed for customers (and
myself) right now. I always u
We've had the same experience with DC CFLs, about 50% return rate. They just
can't handle voltages below 12 v, so we quit carrying them.
After years of working on DC wiring, just go to AC. You could wire all the
lights on one circuit in 12 AWG. (instead of running 10 AWG or bigger, and then

Daryl --
If anything, DC equipment has gotten much tougher to find over the last
few years. And for the price of a solid-state 12v - 24v - 48v DC-DC
converter, you could buy the nice little Morningstar 300W inverter!
Maybe there's a better company making DC CFLs now, but we had to stop

Darryl,
If you're lifting from below ground you'll need a submersible pump to
push water. Suction head maxes out at 25' at sea level before
cavitation, with 1' reduction in theoretical lift capacity per 1000'
above sea level. Consider a DC Quad SCS sub from SunPumps, 1-800-370-8115, to both lif
HI all I just got a Standalone north woods 14 x 20 feet, 2 room 4 season home.
It is so small I want to do most loads DC, it has been over a year since I have
had this type project.
Where are people getting 24 or 32 or 48 volt CFLs? Are there any LED now
suitable at these voltages?
