Wilson now brands their repeaters WeBoost. There is an alternative by HiBoost that I went with instead because its signal strength meter makes it easier to orient the Yagi than the indicator lights on the WeBoost. Feedback was easy to avoid with my home because it is metal sides and roof with...

Another consideration with propane at low temperatures is the vaporization rate. It may tank a larger tank to get a vaporization rate that is adequate for your usage rate.

The best way to start an argument on the internet is to say something - pretty much anything. Then someone like you comes along and shits on it like a pigeon without offering anything to back it up. A directional antenna provides gain, not as much as an amplifier, but it provides gain. If...

Faraday shield actually. A Faraday cage is made of mesh material. Same result though. In mine I have to use Wifi Calling to get cell phone connection. In my house of the same exterior metal siding construction I use a cell phone booster with an RF amplifier and an indoor and outdoor antenna...

The OP said that he replaced all of the branch circuits that were originally small gauge aluminum. I assumed he was happy with the branch circuits and the panel itself seems ok.

The panel can be straightened out. What has to go is the sub-panel's feeder.

Anyone else wonder why someone would tape a red wire to use as a neutral and then run the white as an ungrounded conductor vs. using the red as the ungrounded conductor and the white as the neutral? Seeing that would make me want to rip it all out and start over from scratch. If there is no...

All of which can send an uninformed tinkerer to the E.R. It is a lot of stored energy if immediately released.

But how does it know to let the wanted bugs in?

It is not the hardness so much as the surface finish that affects wear, galling, etc. Having a difference in hardness between the mating parts is good as well.

Actually quite the opposite.

You could use black stainless. Either blacken them or if available in the size and head design you need there are black stainless bolts available from various sources. You are right that black oxide is not durable.

There is no room for "should do the job" or copying the original install. The contractor should provide a Manual J load analysis and a Manual S equipment schedule that implements it. Also, before you put in a 4 ton unit again because you had one before, have a look whether insulation and air...

Vapor Barrier is out of date terminology. Vapor barriers used wrongly do more harm than good by creating a wall that cannot dry out when it gets wet. Hello mold. Current standards speak of Vapor Retarders instead. A Class I vapor retarder is the same as what used to be considered a vapor...

Yep, but with the Milwaukee you don't have to get used to it. With the time lag on the DeWalt, it is like the difference between firing a flintlock and a cartridge rifle. I like most of DeWalt's tools, but they can keep the nailers.

The Liberty Z advertises to use the Hero deck. Unlike the Velocity+ deck which I know well, I have no experience with it so can't say good or bad. It is possible to make a heavy fabricated commercial looking deck that doesn't have good cut quality. I have a Bad Boy that fits that...

I may be the biggest Scag mower fan alive, but the Liberty Z does not have a Velocity+ deck. I believe that the Tiger Cat II is the least expensive model with the Velocity Plus deck.

The reason PT on concrete rots is that people make saw cuts and then don't treat the raw edges with preservative.
