There's a guy up the street who put out some interesting stuff,  apparently
for trash pickup.  Some of the neighborhood kids had fun by picking up a
bunch of multiline phones,  which I had to holler about when they ended up
all over the yard here.  In addition,  there's some kind of monitor,  and a
couple of boxes.

I couldn't resist taking a look at the smaller of the two last night.  It's
a power supply.  Two outputs,  apparently.  One is rated at 24 volts,  _10
amps_.  The other is a slightly higher voltages,  labeled
"charger",  so this is apparently designed to provide some
battery backup.

So I snagged it.  If nothing else,  it should provide some very usable parts.

What the heck would you do with 24 volts?  About the only stuff I have that
needs that is a whole mess of relays...
