Re: Two breakers for a bathroom seems a bit much - 2 months ago

Former electrician here. 2 breakers in a bathroom is not a big deal. If you had a ceiling IR or forced air heater - circuit for it. If you had a towel warmer. Circuit for it. If you had in-floor radiant heat - circuit for it. If you have a jaccuzi tub. Circuit for it. Hair dryer draws a lot. Circuit for the outlets absolutely needed by themselves minimum. Then one for the lighting / fan b

Re: Run Flat Tires? - 3 months ago

Also Run-flat are A LOT more expensive and a LOT harder to mount on wheels. Their very stiff sidewalls make that a real PITA. I have one vehicle with run-flat from the factory, and will NOT be putting them back on.

Re: Bathroom vanity mirror - are vertical lights next to the mirror useful? - 4 months ago

Absolutely. Or do like I did, and put LED strip lighting inset around the perimeter of the mirror, on a dimmer. I put LEDs in all the kick panels on the bottom of the cabinets, and also we have a center stack cabinet, I had that made so it was about 6" from the ceiling with crown molding around the top, and put LEDs in the molding as well, all on the same switch / transformer. With that on b

I left the stream on and my Airpods in, and was woken up as it left the pad. Pretty cool to say the least. Made it about 10 minutes in and said I'd watch the highlights this morning Took long enough, hope it functions exactly as planned without any issues.

I keep flipping to it to verify it's not running into problems. Fingers crossed.

And now Ringo just posted he has COVID again - and canceled the remainder of the tour. You were DEFINITELY lucky.

Re: Not your run of the mill octogenarian - 5 months ago

You're lucky. Had REALLY GOOD tickets on 10/1 at Four Winds Casino in New Buffalo, MI, the day he came down with COVID about 45 minutes before the show. Glad you got to see him, unfortunately they canceled our show with no rescheduling. And of course have not gotten a refund from Ticketmaster. They say 30-45 days. So nice of them.

Quotepinkoos This is the one I've had saved in my Amazon cart for awhile, I can't remember where I read that it was a recommended one FWIW Tried it. Returned it. Got a "Oh we're sorry, can we send you another from our current production". It didn't work well either.

Re: Been thinking about one these: 10 Best MagSafe (Magnetic) USB-C Adapters for MacBooks & iPads - 5 months ago

Thanks - and no surprised many went away after a single production.

Re: Been thinking about one these: 10 Best MagSafe (Magnetic) USB-C Adapters for MacBooks & iPads - 5 months ago

I tested a number of them. Not great, either they block ports or get very warm to the touch, and had issues with full power delivery. That was with a 15" MacBook Pro, and an 87W adapter. I'd be concerned with 96W or 140W for sure on later models.

Re: WTF- What the FORD ? Son's Focus broken into using Ford security hole - 6 months ago

Normally if you see a vehicle with the VIN number covered so you can’t read it (or scan it’s barcode) it’s because it’s stolen - or they are late on payments and don’t want the repo man to be able to confirm the vehicle before they take it away LOL. Now it’s because YOU CAN BREAK INTO THE CAR WITH IT. Great job, Ford.

Absolutely. Luggage, work laptop bag, and vehicles. Always a reassuring feeling when you get to your destination and see that your bag DID actually make into the right plane's cargo hold. Works just OK in the automated luggage transportation conveyor system, but you do get a ping off of it now and again and see it getting closer to the pickup area. Definitely not realtime though being a l

2 years ago, wanted a Cadillac CT5-V with SuperCruise. SuperCruise was on EXTREME allocation with dealers, very limited production. None of the dealers in my area actually had allocation available, so, I went up the food chain. The largest Cadillac dealer in Michigan had allocation for 4 units in the 2021 production. I was their 1st on order for one, took 6 months to arrive, and drove 7 hours eac
