# Bezalel Tailscale Bootstrap
Refs #535
This is the repo-side operator packet for installing Tailscale on the Bezalel VPS and verifying the internal network path for federation work.
Important truth:
- issue #535 names `104.131.15.18`
- older Bezalel control-plane docs also mention `159.203.146.185`
- the current source of truth in this repo is `ansible/inventory/hosts.ini`, which currently resolves `bezalel` to `67.205.155.108`
Because of that drift, `scripts/bezalel_tailscale_bootstrap.py` now resolves the target host from `ansible/inventory/hosts.ini` by default instead of trusting a stale hardcoded IP.
## What the script does
`python3 scripts/bezalel_tailscale_bootstrap.py`
Safe by default:
- builds the remote bootstrap script
- writes it locally to `/tmp/bezalel_tailscale_bootstrap.sh`
- prints the SSH command needed to run it
- does **not** touch the VPS unless `--apply` is passed
When applied, the remote script does all of the issues repo-side bootstrap steps:
- installs Tailscale
- runs `tailscale up --ssh --hostname bezalel`
- appends the provided Mac SSH public key to `~/.ssh/authorized_keys`
- prints `tailscale status --json`
- pings the expected peer targets:
- Mac: `100.124.176.28`
- Ezra: `100.126.61.75`
## Required secrets / inputs
- Tailscale auth key
- Mac SSH public key
Provide them either directly or through files:
- `--auth-key` or `--auth-key-file`
- `--ssh-public-key` or `--ssh-public-key-file`
## Dry-run example
```bash
python3 scripts/bezalel_tailscale_bootstrap.py \
--auth-key-file ~/.config/tailscale/auth_key \
--ssh-public-key-file ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub \
--json
```
This prints:
- resolved host
- host source (`inventory:<path>` when pulled from `ansible/inventory/hosts.ini`)
- local script path
- SSH command to execute
- peer targets
## Apply example
```bash
python3 scripts/bezalel_tailscale_bootstrap.py \
--auth-key-file ~/.config/tailscale/auth_key \
--ssh-public-key-file ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub \
--apply \
--json
```
## Verifying success after apply
The script now parses the remote stdout into structured verification data:
- `verification.tailscale.self.tailscale_ips`
- `verification.tailscale.self.dns_name`
- `verification.peers`
- `verification.ping_ok`
A successful run should show:
- at least one Bezalel Tailscale IP under `tailscale_ips`
- `ping_ok.mac = 100.124.176.28`
- `ping_ok.ezra = 100.126.61.75`
## Expected remote install commands
```bash
curl -fsSL https://tailscale.com/install.sh | sh
tailscale up --ssh --hostname bezalel
install -d -m 700 ~/.ssh
touch ~/.ssh/authorized_keys && chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
tailscale status --json
```
## Why this PR does not claim live completion
This repo can safely ship the bootstrap script, host resolution logic, structured proof parsing, and operator packet.
It cannot honestly claim that Bezalel was actually joined to the tailnet unless a human/operator runs the script with a real auth key and real SSH access to the VPS.
That means the correct PR language for #535 is advancement, not pretend closure.

# LAB-003: Truck Battery Disconnect Switch Installation
**Issue:** [timmy-home#528](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/Timmy_Foundation/timmy-home/issues/528)
**Objective:** Eliminate parasitic battery drain via proper disconnect switch installation
**Status:** Planning Complete — Ready for Execution
---
## Problem Statement
Parasitic battery drain is killing the truck battery when parked. This is critical for operational mobility in a rural location where the truck is essential for:
- Supply runs to Newport/Claremont
- Emergency egress
- Equipment transport
The battery has likely been damaged from repeated deep discharges and may need replacement.
---
## Pre-Installation Checklist
### Diagnostic Steps (Do These First)
1. **Verify parasitic drain with multimeter:**
- Set multimeter to DC Amps (10A scale)
- Disconnect negative battery terminal
- Connect multimeter in series between battery negative and cable
- Normal drain: <50mA (0.05A)
- Problem drain: >100mA (0.1A)
- Record reading: __________ mA
2. **Identify the culprit (if drain is high):**
- While monitoring current, pull fuses one at a time
- When current drops, you've found the circuit
- Common culprits: aftermarket radio, alarm system, interior lights, OBD-II tracker
3. **Test battery health:**
- With engine off, battery voltage should be ~12.6V
- With engine running, alternator should show ~13.7-14.7V
- If voltage <12.4V when "fully charged," battery is degraded
---

## Installation Procedure
### Tools Required
- 10mm wrench (for most battery terminals)
- 13mm wrench (if GM side terminals)
- Wire brush or terminal cleaner
- Shop rags
- Optional: zip ties for cable management
### Step-by-Step Installation
1. **Safety First**
- Park on level ground
- Engage parking brake
- Remove keys from ignition
- Wear safety glasses
2. **Disconnect Battery**
- **CRITICAL:** Disconnect NEGATIVE (-) terminal FIRST
- This prevents short circuits if wrench touches frame
- Loosen 10mm nut, wiggle terminal off post
- Tuck cable away so it can't touch battery post
3. **Clean Terminals**
- Use terminal brush to clean inside of cable clamp
- Clean battery post until shiny
- Apply thin layer of dielectric grease to post
4. **Install Disconnect Switch**
**For Top Post Batteries:**
- Remove battery cable end from switch (if pre-attached)
- Slide switch onto battery negative post
- Re-attach cable to other side of switch
- Tighten securely (don't overtighten — battery posts strip easily)
**For Side Terminal (GM) Batteries:**
- May need terminal shim/post riser for clearance
- Install shim on negative side terminal
- Mount switch to shim
- Connect cable to switch
**For Cable-End Style:**
- Cut existing negative cable near battery (leave enough slack)
- Strip 1/2" of insulation from both ends
- Install in quick-disconnect connector
- Crimp or bolt securely per manufacturer instructions
5. **Test Installation**
- Switch should rotate/turn smoothly
- No binding or interference with battery hold-down
- Cable has enough slack for switch operation
- Switch in "ON" position: truck electronics work
- Switch in "OFF" position: no power to truck
6. **Reconnect and Verify**
- Switch to ON position
- Attempt to start truck — should start normally
- Check all electronics function
- Switch to OFF position
- Verify no interior lights, radio, etc.
---
## Testing Protocol
### Immediate Test (Same Day)
- [ ] Start truck with switch ON — engine starts normally
- [ ] Turn switch OFF while running — engine dies (expected)
- [ ] Switch OFF, wait 30 seconds, attempt start — no response (expected)
- [ ] Switch ON, attempt start — starts normally
### Overnight Test (Critical)
- [ ] Park truck with switch in OFF position
- [ ] Note battery voltage: __________ V
- [ ] Wait 24 hours
- [ ] Next day, switch ON, attempt start
- [ ] Record result: □ Started normally □ Slow crank □ No start
- [ ] If started, check voltage: __________ V
### 48-Hour Test (If Battery Healthy)
- [ ] Repeat overnight test with 48-hour duration
- [ ] If truck starts normally, installation is successful
- [ ] If truck fails to start, battery replacement needed
---
## If Battery Needs Replacement
### Symptoms of Bad Battery
- Voltage <12.4V after "charging" overnight
- Slow cranking even with switch disconnected
- Battery case bulging or terminals corroded
- Battery >4 years old
### Replacement Battery Shopping
**Common Truck Batteries (Group Size):**
- Measure existing battery or check current battery label
- Common truck sizes: Group 24F, 27F, 31, 65, 78
**Recommended:**
- **DieHard Platinum AGM** (Advance Auto) — $200-250
- Best cold cranking amps (CCA) for NH winters
- AGM handles deep discharges better
- 3-year full replacement warranty
- **EverStart Maxx** (Walmart) — $100-150
- Budget option
- Check CCA rating matches or exceeds old battery
- **Optima YellowTop** (Pep Boys/Amazon) — $300+
- Deep cycle + starting
- Best for vehicles with parasitic drain issues
- Handles repeated discharge cycles
---
## Documentation Requirements
Per issue #528 acceptance criteria, upload to Gitea:
- [ ] Photo of installed disconnect switch (close-up)
- [ ] Photo of receipt from parts store
- [ ] Photo of truck odometer (optional, for record)
- [ ] Note of test results (overnight start success/failure)
- [ ] Note of battery voltage readings (before/after)
Upload via:
1. Open issue #528 in browser
2. Comment with photos attached
3. Check off acceptance criteria
---
## Troubleshooting
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| Switch won't tighten on post | Wrong terminal type | Get side-terminal adapter or different switch style |
| Switch hits battery hold-down | Clearance issue | Add terminal shim to raise switch, or relocate hold-down |
| Cable too short | Switch adds height | Get battery cable extension or longer replacement cable |
| Still drains with switch OFF | Switch installed on wrong terminal | Move to NEGATIVE terminal only |
| Switch gets hot | Loose connection | Tighten terminal nuts; check for corrosion |
| Truck won't start even with switch ON | Battery too dead | Jump start, then evaluate if battery needs replacement |
---
## Cold Weather Considerations (NH)
- Batteries lose ~50% capacity at 0°F
- Disconnect switch prevents drain but doesn't prevent cold damage
- If storing truck long-term:
- Switch to OFF
- Consider battery maintainer (trickle charger)
- Or remove battery and store in heated space
---
## Summary
This installation is straightforward and should take 30-60 minutes including store run. The key steps:
1. **Diagnose first** — verify parasitic drain, check battery health
2. **Buy the right switch** — match your battery terminal type (top vs side)
3. **Install on NEGATIVE terminal only** — this is critical for safety
4. **Test thoroughly** — overnight test proves the fix worked
5. **Document** — photos and receipts to close the issue
**Estimated total time:** 2-3 hours (including store run)
**Estimated cost:** $15-30 (switch only) or $100-300 (if battery replacement needed)

=== LAB-003 Installation Checklist ===
BEFORE YOU GO:
□ Determine battery terminal type (top post vs side terminal)
□ Measure battery group size (look for label like "Group 24F")
□ Check if you have 10mm and 13mm wrenches
□ Verify multimeter has DC Volts and DC Amps capability
AT THE STORE:
□ Purchase battery disconnect switch (match your terminal type)
□ Purchase dielectric grease
□ Purchase terminal cleaner brush (if you don't have one)
□ Get receipt for documentation
INSTALLATION:
□ Park on level ground, engage parking brake
□ Disconnect NEGATIVE (-) terminal first
□ Clean terminals with wire brush
□ Apply dielectric grease
□ Install switch on NEGATIVE terminal
□ Reconnect and test operation
TESTING:
□ Switch ON: truck starts normally
□ Switch OFF: no power to truck
□ Overnight test: switch OFF, verify start next day
□ Document with photos
□ Upload photos to issue #528
TROUBLESHOOTING:
□ If switch doesn't fit: wrong terminal type - exchange at store
□ If still drains overnight: battery needs replacement
□ If slow crank with new switch: battery degraded - replace
