    What are you doing with you "Hot Deals" Durham Instrument Cart?

    Nice mod list! Mine is being used as a portable workbench. Love it! Debating on getting wheels locks.

    Security cameras in 2026

    I use hard wired POE with BlueIris. Video stays local. I am pretty sure the Hikvision issue as well as many other amazon specials are with the DOD. Most cheap cameras don't carry NDAA approval. Don't use them in a bank but you can buy them.

    Recommendations for a leaf blower?

    I have the same setup. Older 2 cycle, B&D corded and a Dewalt 20V. Use depends on need and the Dewalt gets used the most. I paid $199 for a Dewalt combo deal with a trimmer, charger and a 4A battery. Sold the trimmer with the charger for $100. $100 for the blower with a 4A battery? What's not...

    Help settle a disagreement

    Since all is well and the OP is supposedly getting his money back, I have a question on those nut drivers. Are those little square handles even close to comfortable to use? Or is there some sort of sleeve that slips over the handle? My meat hooks wince just looking at them.

    Walmart had Hyper Tool mini tool bases on sale before Christmas for $20. Had hot pink but didn't offer a matching upper. Bought a real close matching color Kobalt top for $25. My wife got the set for Christmas; she really likes it but just puts junk in it! :cautious: At least I use my red set...

    Mr. Heater Big Maxx Wall Mount Options

    Assuming gas... If you need to get inside it, and you will, your middle one will require you to take it down first. When it doesn't start, and it eventually won't, the service codes are inside and you have to take the side panel off to see what is not working. I have to clean inside mine with...

    Amazon Deals on New Retail Items - Post them!

    Couldn't agree more. I too find it very hard to buy things without getting opinions from people I don't know first. If Amazon only had a 30-day easy return policy where I could just drop something off that I didn't like without as much as a shipping label. It would even be better if they could...

    Amazon Warehouse Deals

    Warehouse deals are a **** shoot. Overall, I am quite please on my purchases. However, missing or damaged parts, not working, or incorrect items are not uncommon. Returns aren't difficult though. With that said, I have also received items with extra accessories or multiples of an item I didn't...

    Driveway ice mitigation

    I don't sand my entire driveway, just the bad spots for vehicles and people. I have a decent slope but really don't need that much to get grip, just something to get momentum in a few locations. A full 55 gallon drum lasts me the season but I guess I'd get a second one if I had to. I use a...

    Driveway ice mitigation

    Probably apples and oranges as I am in rural WI, but here goes.... I keep a barrel of sand in my garage during the winter. About 50-60% of our land is pure sand so that cost is nil. The way our 175' recycled concrete driveway slopes, drains and faces, salt is absolutely useless. It just makes a...

    How not to provide panel access

    I am no electrician but I do not see a glaring issue with the box itself. Likely, the surround was done by the homeowner or his brother well after the electricians truck and inspector left the driveway. Not a wide enough picture to discern more.

    Wifi thermostat with temperature drop alert

    My Ecobee doesn't have a monthly fee and does alerts. My hardware is a few years old so I might be grandfathered in on something but I'd definitely would check them out. https://www.ecobee.com/en-us/

    Propane Tanks?

    Ours will lease you a 250/500 gallon for free if you buy their gas. Has a minimum requirement but its a very reasonable amount and varies by tank size. Pays to shop around.
