Camp Power

Radio Electra runs a power grid for our camp and the SCARAB camp. Any camp member may request to be placed on this grid. However power is not unlimited, it is 20 amps of power at 120 volts. Or 2400 watts. The power you need, will determine what your cost will be. We have a breakdown of costs included below.

This power grid costs the camp about $2000.00 per year. Its success depends on people paying for the power. It also requires that you actually ride the grid if you need power. If you camp in the Radio Electra Camp you MUST NOT use your own generator. Portable generators and RV generator usage is not allowed in the Radio Electra camp as long the diesel generator is available and operational. The exception is if the Diesel goes down and cant be brought up in a short period of time.

We do not want to deal with the noise and fumes and fuel storage issues for several small generators operating in our camp. If you have your own generator you may bring for emergency use only.

The fee from RVs $150.00 for 20 amps/one connection, 24 hours a day for the entire event.

Tents with A/C, $60.00,  Note, This rate is for the smallest 500 watt window type A/C units only. If you are also using a larger unit or other high demand items in your tent like a hot plate, large microwave ovens or lots of lights or art you need to contact me about paying a higher rate.

Tents that want power for fans lights etc, but no A/C or other high demand items, $40.00.

Battery powered art cars pull nearly as much as an RV to charge. If you need to charge an art car, email me so we can work out a plan.

If you have large art you need to power also contact me off list so we can figure out how much we can give you versus what you might need to run it.
