1ah.
The pump on full is 7ah and on 3 is just over 2ah.
I guess it keeps it topped up rater than charges, however, the blue battery was on less than 12v and is now at 12.75v alone and 12.99v with the solar on.

Just been looking at your stuff from a marketing point of view. Quite impressed.
I'd like to know a few things but it's difficult on a forum, i don't like giving too much away.Your prices are not too bad, i thought they were higher, but you include insides.
My main questions would be
does it work and to what degree? I notice a start date of 91, but i appreciate a lot more became possible for us after most people adopted broadband.
Attracting the inside work, doesn't this slow you down and drop your rate?
Why aren't you full?
Where do you see the future?

My main questions would be
does it work and to what degree?Yes it seems to, I only started thinking more about marketing since October. I was worried about the recession, lost 3 jobs and picked up several ŁK's worth when you take it over a 12 month basis. If you type in Window cleaning and marketing into Google I'm sure my main influence will be on page 1. Admin on here dose not like him though, their loss IMO I notice a start date of 91, but i appreciate a lot more became possible for us after most people adopted broadband.
Attracting the inside work, doesn't this slow you down and drop your rate? I call it a deep clean,
Why aren't you full? Some years ago I had 2 people working for me. Then I simplified sold work and built up again, did the same 3 or so years ago after my son and wife were both seriously ill. I'm now fullish but have started using some help. I may employ this autumn or next year, not sure yet, but any new work I get is 1st class stuff
Where do you see the future?Generally in my own head, I don't approve of reading the tea leaves ;D Seriously, I like to rotate work, keep the special ones and move on the less than special. If I employ that may be different. I hope to work less and earn more. Money only interests me to sustain my life. I don't live to work but work to live. I have learnt Mandarin this year and plan to use that to teach visiting Chinese students. I do that on a voluntary basis. Feel free to ask as many questions as you like

i used to have a old estate car and the battery would allways die if left alone for more than 3 days , at the time i had major issues with the green issue of car batteries, so i purchased a solar panel for the car, it sat on my dash board and the battery was never dead again

Some very good answers, and i'll have to digest them (could be weeks) before i have anything constuctive to say. To learn mandarin you must be very bright.
I too have been worried about the recession, and am a bit paranoid about more and more competition sprouting up.This competition mainly stays away from non cash jobs though and doesn't have the kit for the bigger jobs.
I am not trying to improve my hourly rate.My strategy is to obtain more work and build my brand.There is an element of busy fool to this, but i am not the one i wish to keep busy.
Without googling i expect you are talking about coach, i liked him too, and others such as prism etc have ran with the ball a bit since.Some good text on your site about gutters, a good job done on selling gutters as an experience and i suspect this is the kind of thing you mean by influence.
I don't agree with all that he does though.

To learn mandarin you must be very bright.I think I have forgotten most of what I have learnt, I have a friend from Northern China but mostly am helping him with his written english as he has loads of exams.

I don't agree with all that he does though.No it doesnt, well not all of it over here, I pick and choose. One piece that I have used has REALLY worked well. I do feel though that I am thinking more about how I market. My invoices and estimates have worked wonders as well.
