  1. Changed light switches out, now only 1 works correctly :/

    Sounds like you got a your constant power connected to a switch in place of the 'power-out' that should have been there. For real diagnostics, pull the cover, unscrew the switches, gently pull them out so the wires are all visible and send us a screen shot. This kind of thing is super easy to...
  2. Question on Electrical Wiring

    It's been a while since I did much electrical stateside (though I think that's about to change), but up here in the great white north the identification is only necessary at the fixture. That's why we ALWAYS send constant power down the white, then back up on the black. As the white wire in...
  3. Question on Electrical Wiring

    Romex switch legs always contain a white unless you buy some kind of really rare NM without a white in it. Constant power in the light JB goes down to the switch on the white, back up on the black. Can you produce a code against that? I've never seen one.
  4. Question on Electrical Wiring

    The confusing part is that, if there are only 2 conductors in the box like OP stated, one of them should be white because it would be what's called a 'switch leg', which is 99.999% of the time done with a 14/2 romex in residential. So the original electrician used some kind of really REALLY...
  5. Question on Electrical Wiring

    OP, repurpose one of the conductors in the switch into a neutral and replace the switch with a receptacle. This moves your 'problem' back out to the light, which can be solved easily with a pull chain or occupancy sensor. It can be solved with more difficulty by surface mounting a BX or...
  6. New furnace with heat pump added opinions please

    That seems insanely expensive to me. Is the $3k blower included in the $8k install price at least? Or is the $5k heat pump in there? A furnace swap that only needs minor duct adaptation takes 2-5 hours labor. Also, i would note that the chb105 is ENORMOUS for 1064 sq ft. I have a 95k btu...
  7. <SOFTWARE RANT>.... You buy a peice of software for 1000 bucks........

    I hate how people crash space ships like Columbia... they probably thought flying one was as easy as buying an airplane with a manufacturer's manual or something.
  8. Quick advice on rim joist insulation

    @Greenman what you're seeing is the non load-bearing side of one of my dormers. The house is very tall because we decided to spend the extra $3k to use attic trusses, and I gained another 900 sq ft for the house. The insulation is that way because I claimed just about every cubic foot of space...
  9. Quick advice on rim joist insulation

    I did fibreglass capped with 3"+ foam for extra R and vapor barrier in my attic.
  10. If possible: Forced birth control for those on welfare to stop the next generation of poor

    Hey, where have you been for the last 4 YEARS? And this is what we call 'hitting the ground running' lol.
  11. Quick advice on rim joist insulation

    OP, if your heart is set on this, save yourself 750% of the labor and buy a Froth Pak. It will get in every single little hole/crack (you won't the other way, no matter how diligent you are), it's fairly inexpensive for what it is, and it's also a vapor barrier (so there's no 'in between' space...
  12. House wiring/breaker box limits question

    OP 60 amp breaker for a stove is ENOURMOUS. They're usually on a 2p40, and even then I've never seen one draw over 28A with a clampon (maybe in self cleaning mode and burners on too?) As long as you don't bake a turkey, dry your clothes, run your AC and microwave popcorn all at the same time...
  13. Motion Light woes-

    Is it mounted on the wall or i the soffit? If the wall, you could pull the box out, drill through into the building, and stuff a BX through the hole. Strap it down the inside wall (ugly, but OK in a garage), or hit the back of another JB, then pipe down to a switch at normal height.
  14. Motion Light woes-

    LEF suffers from TREMENDOUS inrush current, that's why dimmers are rated differently for LEDs than they are for incandescents (usually between 1/4 and 1/6 the wattage rating). More than likely, the little relay inside the motion detector can't handle the over current situation. You could use...
  15. Change CFL kitchen lights to LED?

    More than likely, what you're experiencing is a better CRI (color rendering index), as color temp has little to do with accuracy at about 2500k and above. I usually shoot for 3k in hotels and houses, although i love 5k or even 6.5k (as close to actual summer sunshine as you can usually get) in...
  16. Health care: conservative callout

    Wouldn't be statistically necessary with an affordable coverage schedule. Isn't that the entire philosophy of ACA or most other insurance frames? That there is a quantifiable cost per year for medical coverage, we just have to make educated guesses as to the amount at distribute the costs fairly?
  17. Health care: conservative callout

    You realize that some countries do this for all ages, right? Don't get me wrong, I don't think single payer is the best answer, at least in the ways I've experienced its implementation, but if it can be done for people from 0-100 years old, why not try 0-18 here? I figured 18 was the age that...
  18. Health care: conservative callout

    Why not have a federal registry of patients in need of life saving care that can be donated to publicly or anonymously, that also qualifies as at least a partial tax write off. Then lefties and righties can see who puts their money where their mouth is.
  19. Health care: conservative callout

    Philosophically, the goal of both sides is the betterment of our progeny. Conservatives 'usually' attribute it to divinely mandated stewardship of their children and the earth, Liberals 'usually' attribute it to evolutionary hardwiring for the survival of our species. So, yes, I feel that the...
  20. Health care: conservative callout

    There would have to be a cutoff age in transitioning to a system like this, but ultimately the goal would be to offer affordable coverage to those who opt to keep it after turning 19, a 6-12 month probation for those that decided they were too healthy but wanted coverage later on, and a...
  21. Health care: conservative callout

    Have you ever spent a few minutes on crowd funding sites and saw how many people are trying to raise money for their kid's care? You need to be calloused or in a position to help just to make it back out without breaking down. My question to conservatives is this: Would you support 100%...
  22. Shutdown over?

    Looks like they tried that https://twitter.com/kerpen/status/954372957211627521 did they make him disagree?
  23. It's beautiful music Sunday

    This girl has tons of videos of pop that she's arranged, amazing for her age.
  24. Maull's Barbecue Sauce

    I grew up with it, probably because it was 10 cents-a-gallon, didn't like it very much (though adding beer made it much better). IMO, the only thing it's good for is nostalgia; if you didn't have it as a kid, you'll hate it now.
  25. Throwing snow against house - really bad, right?

    OP, your AC unit should have a disconnect mounted close by. Although it should be 3R (weather proof), that's only to shed precipitation. The snow will ice-dam (possible from warm air escaping from the house through the penetration behind the disconnect) and eventually get inside. 240 volts...
  26. HOA forces owners to keep garage open during the day

    There has to be a limit to their power, and I imagine it lies in the land of physical and/or material damages. They can't mandate that you leave your daughter's curtains open at night, or that you must leave your front door unlocked when no one is home (which is virtually the same thing as in...
  27. Dryer Not Working

    OP, as coincidental as it sounds, you might have 2 problems. The 2nd dryer smoking out makes me think it had the pigtail wired incorrectly (or the original receptacle was wrong but it matched the old dryer's incorrectly wired pigtail). The no-power problem sounds like a bad connection; it would...
  28. 2nd floor heating problem

    The pipe past the zone valve can be hot simply from regular conduction too, are you sure that valve is opening? The pipe being hot there but only warm 15 feet away makes me think your zone valve isn't opening.
  29. What people overlooked in the TAX BILL, I bet. Car insurance is now "optional".(Not really)

    This seems to be ignoring the fact that we already have history of those effects, and the 'what ifs' your stating have already been answered. The average coverage would be over $2,500 less per year, $30k-$40k yearly costs would still be a joke, insurance companies wouldn't have doubled proffits...
  30. Freddy Mercury Vid (This made me happy)

    Just wanted to share this vid. It's short, but it made me smile the whole time. https://youtu.be/_DuoBTJdmds
  31. Avengers: Infinity War

    Perhaps not in character, but there's an enormous power gap between Thanos (without the IG of course) and Galactus. Also, if you read some of the Galactus-centric stuff, there is actually a person there.
  32. AMD Silently Cuts Down Core Count on Radeon RX 560 Graphics Card – Now Shipping With 896 Cores Inste

    They should take their own advice and inform the consumer. https://gaming.radeon.com/en/rx500/rx-560/ Has the 14 and 16 version listed, but doesn't tell which one they're using in the benchmarks on the page for that card. Misleading to say the least, even if by accident.
  33. dumb wiring question

    Apart form overload potential, which is admittedly pretty small in this instance, it creates a parallel neutral pathway that is a big no-no. I agree that, while it's also against kitchen receptacle codes to add a light to the circuit, it's a much lesser evil that parallel neutral pathways.
  34. Took out my nipple rings for good today

    Don't you mean 'sounds' like? :sly:
  35. Quentin Tarantino's 'Star Trek' will be R-rated

    They should have Zack Snyder start the direction, then have Joss Whedon finish it. Too soon?
  36. dumb wiring question

    It's against code to steal a neutral from a different circuit, just and FYI.
  37. WaPo: Roy Moore underage sex allegations. 12/4 update: Trump endorses. Jones wins

    No desperation here, just posting news to the topic that I didnt see here yet. Seems she's admitting something that could have been stated from the start, before those analysis prove that he didn't write that part, now her credibility is undermined. If he's guilty, cut his balls off. Every...

  39. Wife asks "have you heard the bad news about Ryan Reynolds?"

    Would be great if it were live action and he ran around in a suit like the dog guy in that Elijah Wood show with his real face showing.
  40. Avengers: Infinity War

    Yeah, but unfortunately they can't defeat an IG Thanos without deus ex machina, unless they write it true to his nihilist character and have him sabotage himself. Here's what I read a few days ago, official announcement next week...
