I'm about to run some wiring for my recessed lights in the garage and I'm curious what the best way to run the Romex is. Should I run it on top of the 2x4 trusses for the garage ceiling (In the attic space that will be used for storage) or along the side of the trusses and loop over when...

Yea picked up an i3 BEV, very happy with it so far. Charger I'm looking at is a Clipper Creek HCS-40 plug in with a NEMA 14-50 plug. i3 is for daily commuting and around town, X3 diesel for longer trips via BMW's Flexible Mobility Program when we dont want to take the M5, and the 89 351 Bronco...

Just read through the entire thread and love it! Any info on your rain water collection system and holding tank? Been building a pole barn south of Post, Texas for hunting and water is an issue as well in that area. Really curious in your filtration and pump setup and any suppliers. Glad to see...
