I ordered 10!

How would a coat of matte clear work? Do the lamps get hot?

I'm seeing $59.95 and 800 less lumens. I'd stick with the Sam's club deal.

Thanks ard. I'll do that.

I have listed the actual amp ratings on some of the equipment above. Like I said, my question was regarding the type of direct burial cable to use for 100 amp service. I'm a one man show, but it is still possible that I may have to cycle the lift while the welder is powered up and have the...

The 100 amp requirement was predetermined and I believe within reason considering the equipment that will be used as well as projected future use. That is why it was not included in the original question. I'll be sticking with 100 amp service and I do not see the previous comments as a "waste of...

Heat will be via a 75K BTU Modine gas unit.
