Or it’s insulated but over time I guess the sun would damage the plastic and air/water would start to get into the wire and corrode it?

Bingo! Ripped out a bunch of it yesterday and found a section of it where insulation has failed for whatever reason and the wire was crumbling to dust.

Nothing special, any copper wire should work.

It uses induction - the base station sends a signal around the loop and the mower picks it up with a coil. The signal is inverted when the coil is on the outside of the loop.

Hopefully will find enough time (and nice weather) to fix the robotic mower’s boundary wire. And by fix I mean rip the whole lot out and replace with the heavy duty wire. It’s done well to last so long, but it’s in too poor condition now for me to bother trying to patch whichever section is corroded.

Then I have to put my fancy new Old Man Mountain front rack on my bicycle and figure out how to mount my light to it.

Did you go PoE or wireless? I was tempted to get the PoE version, but am now too lazy to run a cable.

Not my cup of tea, so I mostly just kept to the booth. Would have been pretty decent for any Lord of the Rings fans though.

Seeing all the cosplayers and other folks dressing up was rad, but we’ve more or less just sat in our booth and didn’t check out much event-wise.

Only a few hours left at Armageddon. It’s been pretty fun.
