    Cars, it's electric! Do Do Do

    I've carried full sheets of plywood a few times. Was even able to get a few 12' 2"x10"s inside with nothing sticking out. I've had 2 large mountain bikes with wheels on and still had seating for 4. Can't beat it

    Cars, it's electric! Do Do Do

    The Mercedes VLE will probably be what eventually replaces my Odyssey. The minivan is just the most functional type of vehicle I've ever owned, can't imagine not having one.

    Cars, it's electric! Do Do Do

    That's crazy. My wife has 8 free charging spots at work but it's hard to snag one during the day when she works. She only works 3 miles away. I might start parking the car there at night and just run or bike to and from so I don't have to charge it at home 🤣. I can't imagine paying super...

    This is what I liked about buying from Tesla and Rivian. The price is the price, no negotiating. The whole process is so much easier.

    Heat pumps. Who's using them?

    I was just wondering.... I was thinking of having the house at 76 and bump the bedrooms down to 74, maybe 72, at night. But maybe I'll try 78 to start. I definitely need the extra cooling to stay asleep at night though, even with the fan. I might be skinnier this summer than the last few...

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    I dunno, Google is telling me she did exactly what she said she was going to do with energy costs 🤷

    This is what I've always done. I've made really big ones when I was younger. This year the kids and I focused more on building a ramp to make the gradual slope of our yard more fun with a sled. But here's a small igloo we made a couple years ago...

    Apparently they no longer make the housing my pump sits in, so I ordered the one @Patrick had posted, the one cheaper than the rebuild. Popped out the old pump, impeller was busted and the guide ring popped out of the old housing. So I popped the new ring out of the new housing, cleaned up...

    Yea, there's a bigger main circulator for the boiler, then five of those isotherm zones with their own pumps

    Found this online, makes much more sense on the direction of things when you see it drawn out like this.

    It's a condensing boiler. And I should probably throw a neutralizer on it, as far as I can tell it's never had one. Condensate is piped out of the house and I have no idea where it goes. The labels are all correct, it's a weird setup that I haven't seen anywhere else. It does work, but it...

    I don't think it's the impeller, it blows the fuse on the control board the instant the relay calls for heat. I should just have to see if it trips with the wires disconnected at the pump to tell if the pump motor is where the short is. My setup is weird. Looking at the picture, the pump on...

    Ya, the union type. My model number is a little different, UPS15-58U/LC 130 Either the pump is shorted, or there's a short in the line somewhere. Gonna figure that out before I order a new one.

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    One is hear say, the others recorded. And if those are things he says while being recorded... He's a disgusting excuse for a human being. How anyone could've even voted for him the first time given his lack of morality and human decency is beyond me, nevermind his horrendous business...
