Been meaning to post for awhile now. I bought a Quick Jack BL-5000XL to work on the wife's Kia Sedona and my Charger SRT 392. Lifting the Kia was no problem with the rubber blocks (120"wb), but the lift was to short to catch the lift points of the Charge (120"wb) because the pinch welds are...

I'm looking for some help from you folks out there. I need to control a lower hose radiator heater for a diesel gen set. I'm trying to make or buy something that will turn the 120ac heater on when the temperature outside goes below 30 degrees in the cabinet, and shut off when is goes about 30...

[I know this post won't sit well for some of you guys out there but.....I installed a Lister Petter 15+kw diesel generator in my basement. Now before you tell me I'm nuts let me tell you how I did it. I built a 10'x12' room in my house basement with cinder block construction on 2 sides. The...

How many KW is it putting out?

Can I use one digital thermostat to control my oil heater in the winter and my central air in the summer? I was concerned about the two different 24vac sources. Thanks:headscrat

Hi.. My tank is in my heated basement where the temp stays around 68 to 70. I'm in Pa. near the NJ border. I do believe my HHO is of the ULS type. Thanks..

Figure I ask on the forum about those who have diesel back up generators, about what they use for fuel. I have heard from many sites that "HHO" #2 home heating oil is the same as off road diesel, but something about higher sulfur contents. I'm running a lister Petter Tier 4 engine with a...

I'm not sure which of the 4 cables is the ground conductor, back to the main panel. The cable has 3 #2 and 1 #4. The #4 has a yellow stripe on it. Thanks..

To clear up (Gave Me) triplex. it was a friend who work for the PECO about 30 years ago. At that time is was about a 75' run now its about 225+ run. As far as the title OPEN NEUTRAL, the cable went open between the two panels. Russ

Thanks.... What size do you think I need? As far as equipment goes 90% is all 240vac. as in shaper, planer ,jointer, cabinet saw , jointer,60 gal air compressor and central air. I use only small electric hand tools. I have been good all these years with the 60amp service. I never have more then...

Need to replace my service going to my wood shop. I have direct burial triplex I got from the electric company 30 years ago. Since that time a pool has been installed, so now I have to go around the pool to get to the garage. The total length is about 225 ft. I'm fused at 60 amps at the house...
