All mine came from Enco (Chinese import, no brand name on the tools) because I couldn't afford the "good stuff" at the time. So far I've never had any reason to regret the decision. You'll need to z

IMO that's part of it, but also if it's an area that gets hot, the stuff gets 'cooked' until eventually (mostly) carbon is all that's left. It's possible some 'fines' are getting sucked out of the c

That's a common misconception, Scott, but the truth is that for the vast majority of UPS, the power supply does not come into action until the power actually fails. Until then, they just pass the ma

I believe so, yes. I'd suggest using SS safety wire as a clamp. Take two turns around the hose, then twist the ends together as usual. The more you twist the tighter it gets ... careful you don't cu

Hate to say it John, but I disagree with almost everything you've said here, starting with surges coming from the electric company and continuing through there being no way to protect against lightn

Depends on how big a surge it is. A well-designed system will have multiple layers of protection, with a MOV being about the 3rd or 4th layer. Big spikes will kill them, so the previous layers need

Not sure what you're looking at ... I see 120v/240v meaning it will work for either one. That's true, sort of. Any amplifiers between the modem and the cable station have to be "two way" or bi-direc

Wow ! Are you sure that's 300 amps input ? 300 out is a good size welder, but 300 in is freakin huge (like 1000 out). For example, the biggest TIG I found on Miller's site is the Synchrowave 350, wh

Guess I still don't see the problem with temporarily using an "extension cord" from the laundry room. Even if your garage is detached, you can lay the wire on the ground temporarily, then pick it up

I've got one, know a little bit about them. What failed ? If it's just that the burner doesn't come on, it may be more economical to repair what you've got. Old ones do tend to be less efficient, so
