| Shouldn’t Do This, but… Nitrile gloves made it very easy. | |
| MBL 101E Personally I wouldn’t spend that much money on eBay unless I could go to the sellers house and listen to them. I suppose I might be a bit distrusting but just because your paranoid, it doesn’t mean people aren’t following you. | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @muzikat Thanks for the encouragement, I switched it out today. Honestly, given what it looked like when I took the original receptacle out of the wall, I likely made things much safer. | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @jazzguy43 I have done a live recepticle exchange without getting shocked. I replaced the positive first. White, Black and then Ground. But for whatever reason now, I’m in a current state of neurosis, always contradicting myself. Really though, if... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @jazzguy43 When I’m working in a NASCAR pit crew, yes. | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @waytoomuchstuff I would have asked if the landlord were chilled but I’m certain he’ll object. So I could just change it out while wearing gloves and while being careful not to touch any of the wires together or use the current receptacle until I ... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @rar1 The houses are Victorian. Twelve foot ceilings. Possibility they are knob and tube wiring as my previous apartment was wired this way when built in 1887. | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @rel Been watching ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’. Anyway, I’m certain that the building inspector has been out. Still it does seem odd that I can’t access the breaker box. Either way, I don’t want to start a fight with the landlord. Do people ever think ... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @rodman99999Thanks for the link but wouldn't just a pair of hospital latex gloves achieve the same purpose? | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @carlsbad2 Here's a review of the charger, https://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0119/Goal_Zero_Yeti_400_Lithium_Portable_Power_Station_Review.htm @noromance If it's easy to install the Maestro in the charger, then yes, I probably will... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @asvjerry Yeah, when I mentioned the NEC citation the landlord became defensive. Also, from looking at the NEC website, it states that they do not determine laws but that some laws are in accordance. Different states have laws of their own. To fin... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @noromance I texted the landlord with that NEC citation and that didn’t go over very well. He said, ‘no one goes into the basement without me, why do you need to get into the breaker box’? At which point I made up some nonsense. I’m not living in ... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… Thanks everyone. Overloading the circuit does sound like a good idea. More ways on how to do that? Yes, the outlets are both black! | |
| The Sound Signature of a Headphone Amp @ghdprentice Yes, the problems been identified. My Quads were some of the first built in that factory in China. For whatever reason, they didn’t apply enough adhesive at the glue joints for that grid like structural piece inside the panels. So a g... | |
| HiFi on the Go - Dream or Reality? I looked into the Focal Bathy’s noise cancelling headphones with a DAC chip. They retail for $700.00 which isn’t unreasonable but I found out that the drivers cost Focal around $20.00. That’s also when I was told about how high the mark up is on h... |
