Losing Electricty for no apparent reason (W/MechJeb 2.0)

[RealAxons]

I have succesfully landed in the Saegen Sea at Laythe, however I cant transmit anything because I am losing electricty for no reason. I have solar panels, rechargeable batteries etc and have never had this problem. The only mod I have is MechJeb 2.0. Electricty does regenerate, but it is is lost very quickly, I have disabled SAS and none of my science equipment is doing anything. Can anyone help?

MJ needs electrical power as well. And every MJ window you have open takes some.

Close all MJ windows and turn off MJ in its right click menu.

That should stop the electrical drain and allow your solar panels to slowly recharge your batteries (remember also that that far out from the sun you're going to have only a trickle charge, this too is new in 1.0.x, in earlier versions solar panels did not reduce in efficiency with range from the sun, now they do).

How many probe cores do you have?

Do you have Smart A.S.S on?

MJ is off, the only MJ window that is still up is the one at the top of the screen with the "MJ" logo on it, I cant remove that so I assume its doing nothing. No effect.

0 Probe cores and no Smart ASS (Hur hur).
