What this is
The jeep is the owner's truck. Camp mesh lives on it. A backup to Cloudflare Access and Cloudflare reliability. Join ssid sakenoma for sakenoma LAN access. VPN mesh to the jeep is installed on the router by hand. The truck should not go dark: Battle Born batteries and a REDARC Manager30. Gifted to anyone on that LAN. Not a product. Not a subscription. Not an alienlights.net LLC SKU.
You do not run workloads on the jeep. The LRC runs them for you. LRC is a joke name for camp house rules. It is not a legal entity and not a contract. Connecting to wifi does not bind you to this page.
On playa you need to know who pays. The LRC pays for itself: the cluster, the Pis, and the mesh are already paid for. That is the gift. You are not funding it. The owner pays for the jeep: unemployment covers the truck payment and the insurance. That is how the host stays registered and insured. This is production. We are testing the LRC on the playa. There is no staging burn.
The factory Grafana mega dash is load-balanced across factory2/3/4. On this mesh (gateway 192.168.9.1) the page probes the three LAN backends. Off the LAN it uses https://grafana.alienlights.net, which hashes across their tunnels and fails over.
Article I — name
This project is the Limited Reliability Company ("LRC"). LRC is not a statutory entity type, not a filing, and not a company. It is a joke name for house rules on the owner's truck. Filing papers later does not raise the SLA. There is no SLA.
The truck is a JEEP. JEEP is a registered trademark of Stellantis N.V. and its affiliates. This project is not named Jeep. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or approved by Stellantis. The word jeep here is the owner's truck, used descriptively. It is not a Stellantis product, dealer, or service.

Article II — purpose
Operate a gifted, offline-first backup to Cloudflare Access and Cloudflare reliability for camp and playa: Galaxy hop, LAN, and whatever still answers after the dust hits the SD cards.
- You do not deploy or schedule anything onto the jeep. Workloads are run for you. After k3s control plane and nodes take their cut — interesting, we do not need to specify them — the jeep has 16GB of replicated Durable Objects. That is the LRC's memory, not yours.
- VPN mesh to the jeep is allowed as architecture. The operator installs it on the router by hand. That is not a tenant cluster and not a workload you run.
- Gift only. No sale. No rent. No "enterprise jeep." No tenant cluster.
- Use is not a contract for compute. If it is up, you are lucky.
Article III — not an LLC product
alienlights.net LLC sells and ships controllers, the app, and cloud Galaxy. The mesh on this truck is camp gear, not an LLC product, warranty, or SKU. You do not run jobs on it.
This page does not create a separate company. The same person owns the jeep and operates the camp mesh. Hosting these notes on alienlights.net does not make the mesh an LLC service and does not waive claims the law does not allow a notice like this to waive.
Cloudflare is the primary. The jeep is the spare. The truck DC bus is not supposed to go dark. If the backup dies, LLC products still work. Joining sakenoma wifi, or the jeep mesh, is not a purchase from the LLC.
Article IV — reliability ceiling
The jeep runs a Cloudflare Access and reliability backup for you. There is no SLA. There is no namespace for you.
- Memory: 16GB of replicated Durable Objects, minus k3s control plane and nodes. We do not need to specify those. They are interesting. They are overhead.
- Power: Battle Born lithium and a REDARC Manager30. The jeep should not go dark. That is the truck. That is not a software SLA. One Chilean 300W inverter inefficiently turns that DC into the AC the LRC actually sips. There is only one. That is the budget. It was good enough for Patagonia.
- Support: none. File a ticket with the wind.
Article V — hardware covenant
No PRC-origin compute, radios, or SBCs on the jeep. Not a vibe. A bill of materials rule.
- Allowed compute: Raspberry Pi boards and compute modules designed by Raspberry Pi Ltd (UK) and built by Sony in the UK or Japan.
- Allowed power: Battle Born packs (Dragonfly Energy Corp. brand; marks of Battle Born Battery Products, LLC) and REDARC Manager30 (Redarc Electronics Pty Ltd). US and AU. Not PRC. The AC hop is one Chilean 300W inverter. Chile is not the PRC. Inefficiency is the feature. It was good enough for Patagonia.
- Forbidden: PRC-origin SBCs, routers, radios, NICs, and "Pi-compatible" boards (Orange Pi and friends). If the OEM is PRC, it is not on this truck's bill of materials.
- Passives: this is about the compute and radio OEM, not every capacitor on earth.
A PRC box on the LAN is a guest. It is not the company.
Article VI — members and money
No members. No units. No capital accounts. No distributions. Nobody is entitled to uptime, equity, a namespace, or a refund.
How the LRC pays for itself: the cluster, the Pis, and the mesh are already paid for. That bill is settled. The gift is the leftover. Paying for that gear does not buy you a job on the cluster. Workloads still run for you, as a Cloudflare backup, or they do not run.
How the owner pays for the jeep: the truck is the owner's, not a company asset. There is no job. Unemployment covers the payment and the insurance. That is the playa truth. If the check stops, the ssid is a weather report.
Mode: testing in production. This is the LRC on the playa.
Article VII — this page
These are camp house rules, posted so you can read them. They are not a clickwrap or a contract. Joining ssid sakenoma, joining ssid jeep, riding the VPN mesh, using the backup, or telling a camp "just use the jeep" does not make you a party to an agreement and does not make you a tenant.
You can leave by leaving the LAN. You cannot offboard a workload you were never allowed to run. No exit interview.
Article VIII — warranty and liability
THE MESH, THE WIFI, AND THE CLUSTER ARE OFFERED AS A GIFT, AS-IS AND AS-AVAILABLE. NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS, UPTIME, OR CONTINUITY FOR THAT GIFT.
This page does not limit or waive claims for personal injury, property damage, or anything else the law does not let a notice like this waive. It does not indemnify or un-indemnify alienlights.net LLC. The LRC gear being paid for does not make the truck a company asset and does not make you a tenant.
Article IX — when it ends
The camp project ends when the jeep leaves and the ssid dies, or when nobody walks over. Surviving bits are not an estate.
Article X — path
Join ssid sakenoma for sakenoma LAN access. That is the door to the camp LAN. The jeep is reached from that LAN over VPN mesh. Mesh packages go on the router by hand. Nobody remotes a workload onto the Pis.
Sakenoma wifi is LAN. Jeep mesh is the spare hop. Cloudflare is still primary.

Raygun Custom sells Car Talk merch. That shop is theirs. Car Talk, Dewey, Cheetham & Howe, and related marks are not ours. This is a link, not a copyright, not an LRC SKU, and not a cut.
Grok is not a lawyer. We ran out of money, so this is what Cursor gave us. Car Talk would love this.

Car Talk, not us (the answer to this week’s puzzler!?): Tony the morning mechanic. Minus 20. Diesel that will not fire. Leave him enough juice for a second try. First question: “Did you bless the truck?” NO THEY DID NOT BLESS THE STINK’N STARLINK TRUCK. Tony faced the bulldog on the hood, made the sign of the cross, and said start the truck. Nine out of 10 times it kicked over.
The blessing was time. A diesel needs heat of compression. The first crank was too cold. While they went to find Tony, the rings and pistons had a minute to expand. Second try, it fired. Tony never let on. Tom guessed Jim Beam breath as starting fluid. Ray had the answer. cartalk.com/radio/puzzler/blessing-trucks
2026 listener comment on this week’s answer!? Gas Jeep vs Tesla vs the diesel from the North African campaign. Same lot. Minus 20. Tony blesses all three. The Jeep kicks. The diesel thinks about it, then kicks. The Tesla sits there looking holy. Why? The Jeep has rings to expand and wants less squeeze than the diesel. Time is starting fluid for pistons. For a Tesla, time is just a colder parking spot. You cannot bless a brick that is already plugged into the weather. Tom would still blame the Jim Beam. Ray would say plug it in. Click and Clack already did. The working truck is blessed. The Tesla is waiting for a priest with an extension cord.
