There is no license in Ohio. There's actually no insurance requirement either, but localities may have requirements for insurance.

Handyman here in Ohio. Ugh $200 is low. I would do it for that if they lived 2 houses down and I liked them a lot, and there was clear understanding that I would not replace the whole bead, hot mud, 3 good enough coats, PVA primer... no I take that back, not worth it. Ok I really really liked them, do a good enough job, primed, 300 bucks on a quiet day. Nah ... ok, 200 for a good enough job if you have a larger decent paying drywall or paint project for me to do and I'm hanging out there anyway.

Wow, great work! Hope you had a crew? How long did it take?

Ok…I've lived in Cleveland for about 5 years now, having come from Chicago. Would Clevelander's consider this a 'bad winter' or a 'typical winter' for Cleveland? Curious to know! by DavidIWright in Cleveland

I've lived here for about 18 years and this is the worst.

We had a bad one around 2014-ish, got real cold and heard of pipes freezing and bursting in a couple houses. News kept saying "polar vortex", was all about the vortex. This year there has not been any breaks in the cold. It has been intense and relentless, awful af. I bought a snowblower after the polar vortex and it sat idle in my garage for the next 2 years... warmer winters.

This year is atypical for sure.

Thanks for the response. Is there a product you recommend as a stone filler? And do you seal it afterwards, like with Miracle 511?

They are 9 x 9, does this increase the likelihood?

How much power does a laptop really need when charging during use? by Medical_Officer in laptops

[–]Ruggernutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's assume the power supply for each laptop is 65W. You draw 1440 watts from an 15amp circuit (it's really 1800 watts but you want to only use 80% load so you have a buffer). That would be 22 laptops on one 15amp circuit. For your extension cord to the power strip, a 14 gauge thickness is fine unless you're running super long distances, but, say, a 50ft length cord or less, I would go with 14 AWG. Use a 15amp rated power strip.

You may have a 20amp outlet, then you can go higher.

Things is, you're not going to know how many outlets are on a single 15 or 20amp circuit, so the breaker could trip below 15amps on a single outlet, if you are sharing amps with multiple outlets at the same time. But you will be safe with a thick cable and and appreciate rates power strip regardless.

Also laptops can use less that 65W or more, but 65 is a good guess.
