Annamoe guage

Post by aisling » Wed Jul 09, 2008 1:00 pm

Hey just wondering what the water levels are like at the moment down there as the graph never updated for yesterday! Did it get washed away :)

Also is there anyway that a gauge could be stuck on the Dargle, or is there anyone whos already on the case?

I was going to say give it a bell ,

But It looks like the phone is off. I have sent a mail to Eoin about it. I'll post up here when he gets back to me.

PS. I was meant to put all the phone numbers up on the gauge page, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

I think ringing it was killing the power. Everyone ringing at times of worst weather (it's solar power). Eoin O R kept having to go up and reset it.

It wasn't washed away but the water got pretty close! The battery's are very low, I need to move the solar panel to a less shaded spot. If any one has a spare car battery (that works) to donate to the gauge I could charge it and switch it for the one thats powering the gauge. Otherwise I will have to bring the battery's home, charge them, and bring them back down, which would be a pain and the gauge would be down for a few days.
Last I heard the Dargle gauge is in but not quite working yet.

Eoin,
I am sure a load of us would not mind giving you some money towards a new battery. We talked about doing something similar for Fergals Dargle gauge

So far I have been going for subtle.
I only ask as people often have car batteries lying around, as I did until I used it for the gauge. Its like recycling only better.
