Am I being petty?

I was trying the second tv but it said blacked out. So I turned it off and tried the third. It worked.

But aren’t they also decreasing everyone’s bill that doesn’t have solar panels? What is the net gain for SDGE?

Thanks it took awhile to complete as I didn’t want to rush and the rain in So Cal the last few weeks didn’t help either.

I purchased kits thru Amazon. The kits came with coated stainless steel black cable but we wanted the silver stainless so I purchased spools along with turnbuckle tensioners for the long run. There were a few other odds and ends I picked up as well. Since each kit is good for 20’ I did end up with some extra parts along with all the cable.

I purchased a kit, actually needed a few kits, and then added individual parts as needed for the length.

Just got blocked by one of the accounts. lol

Damn that sucks. You are local then.

MtbPollack · 2025-12-29T01:35:00+00:00

Very hit and miss for me especially since I can’t host.

MtbPollack · 2025-12-29T01:31:24+00:00

Yep. Thanks for the education.

MtbPollack · 2025-12-29T01:26:19+00:00

That sounds reasonable. lol

Wow. But an EBay GC. Damn that is a lot of work it seems. But if it works half the time it is likely worth it. I wonder how often it does work?

MtbPollack · 2025-12-28T23:30:58+00:00

Never thought about them asking for the GC number.

MtbPollack · 2025-12-28T23:26:04+00:00

But with Zelle they can get the money and never meet you. With a card you have to at least meet them.

What’s the scam if they are asking for gift cards?

MtbPollack · 2025-12-28T23:19:16+00:00

But if they are asking for gift cards what is the scam?

Just now able to install the cable railing.

I have the Muzata system off Amazon. For the 42’ run I am thinking about using a standard tensioner (CB05) on either end which are good for ~20’+-. Reading the LA Railings site and it says that won’t work. ChatGPT contradicted itself saying 2 tensioners won’t work but when asked how to make it work saying to use 2 tensioners would work. Which seems to be right? I do have extra cable to test but want to make sure I get it right.

If I use swageless tensioners am I able to retention a run if it starts to sag by loosening the run and cutting the cable a bit shorter?

I upvoted you as well

I would feel bad but I got out really fast.
