[RE-wrenches] Radian Charges 1 hour per calendar day

[drake.chamberlin at redwoodalliance.org]

It will initially go into absorb, but only stay there for 1 hour. He has 
tried to get it back in absorb by shutting the generator off.

He turns the generator back on, and it doesn't trigger an absorb charge.

The system will only take a charge from the generator for 1 hour each 
calendar day.
