couple more thoughts. Are the fixtures rated to be in contact with insulation? if not, is the insulation 3" or more away from the fixture? And not covering it? Are the LEDS approved for use in you're housings? Are the LEDS dimmable? Are you're dimmers approved for LEDS?

if the AC is blowing straight up it can be cooling the LEDS to a point where they go out, I remember running into a problem like that in the past, though I think it was flour. fixtures there. As for can the box handle it, if it couldn't, the breaker feeding it would have tripped. As for the guy...

if it was a loose neutral he would loose all the LEDS, not just three.

agree with kenc, I think the problem is not being explained correctly.

Whats everybody using for droplights nowadays? I was using craftsman dual 18watt(I think) till it wore out. I see they now have rechargeable ones. I want something very bright.

its a NEC code violation to run line voltage on a tree. Bad idea, go LV

if you hire a handyman to do electrical work, you deserve what you get!

I'm thinking of piping comp. with rapidair system, but want to keep my horizontal runs above the ceiling in the attic for a cleaner look. Since you want the air to be cool for less condensation, is this a bad idea?

sycom is good stuff, but you'll have to have THIER point of use units on electronics like tvs and computers for their warranties to work. I install sycom surge protection. You also need to have one on each outdr units like well pumps and ac condensors for those to be covered.

Back in the 70s, I worked in a large machine shop which made aircraft parts. A young Russian guy probably around 30 was operating the lathe, seemed like a real nice, quite guy. I believe there were 3 large allen screws if I'm not mistaken that close the jaws that hold the work piece in place...

Of course he didn't have the breaker with him, you wouldn't believe how many makes and different styles each manufacturer has. They are too expensive to have all on hand, take up to much room too. Also, if you had an fpe or zinscoe, the breaker itself might have cost you almost that much. We are...

I didn't do any est. calcs on this, but that is a LOT of work! 12k sounds like a great price right off the top of my head. I'm an electrical contractor. How much would you like to pay for this work/

not liking those really. how can it insulate, yet vent at the same time? Also, must be ul approved for use with either particular fixtures or all fixtures. And you can't just bury non IC cans with insulation because you put an led bulb in it.

10 is pretty stiff, try br without wire connected, if stays on, check you're RX in the panal and you're junc box that no copper is toughing metal. Actually pull it away and look at ALL of it, and where you're RX connectors are attached. Undo them if there metallic, may have pinched the RX.

I used to use one of those in the 60s and 70s at my fathers shop. Great machine. Don't know how big a wheel it can do but I used to do wide mags with it, nothing I couldn't do with it back then. used a rag around the contact point of tool on rim, never a problem.

Install a service panel. What does that mean exactly? Install a loadcenter? Or go pull a permit? Which could mean going to whatever outfit (city, county,ect.) handles that in you're area, maybe twice, to drop off, then pick up permit, couple hrs drive time, couple hours there, then getting mat...

Glad to hear about the quality, I'm within an inch of buying a tire machine and wheel balancer from gse in fl

Can't remove the ears when using Madison clips to hold that box in the wall, it'll just fall into the wall. Just take you're dikes and snip off the part of the ear that's behind the screw, or just cut the screws. Better yet, don't use metal boxes, use plastic old work boxes, has nothing to do...

It says all it has to say rite on the nameplate, 74a minimum ampacity, out away the amprobe and upgrade you're circuit

I like a 2 post because you can work on the veh. Easier on it. As far as it being safe, it's a freaking lift, it's made to lift veh. For working on! Also can store my car on it. 4 posts have their fans too, good points also, but if you work on cars, you want a 2 post
