I supposedly bought a 7850 reelcraft reel off craigslist, but as I was driving home, it dawned on me that I did not see a model or serial number on the unit. Which was confirmed once I got home. Sounds like I bought a non reelcraft reel marketed as a reelcraft. It has a 300psi hose, but it...

I started just going from light to light with the wire actually suspended in the air due to its unflexability. Is this ok? The attic...
