We have been to the cabin several times through the winter and thus far when the weather was decent but yesterday was like a summer day, 82*f, sunny and glorious. The other times we ran the furnace to kick the chill out, yesterday no need for that, we opened all the windows, set up the rain barrel, installed the trail cam, ran the tractor for some spring clean up (and charging the bat from the winter), activated the compost toilet and made the list of what to refill the larder with, etc. We have a ss 3+ water container inside that I empty during freeze up, that got filled with fresh artesian well water. The LFP was still holding at 13.3 (my notes showed that is after running the ceiling fan for heat circulation for 4 hrs. since last recharge during tail of winter). All elec is as easy as flip a switch. Next trip in with some food goods and we can stay over any time we want. We routinely keep some canned and dried food there and also have 2 small towns either side within ~8mi with eateries (though we dont like to leave to eat once there). And 'green up' has begun here
