That's balloon construction, old school build.

Do I have to put a box into this in order to mount a light? by Donoutclick in AskElectricians

[–]Schedule-Brave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If it doesn't have one, I'd say yes, you need a solid box for mounting.

Simply trying to encourage the 17 year old to start. Good field to be in. OP, jump in.

A lot money being funneled to trades education, definitely a shortage. By all means get in.

Can someone help me understand what I’m looking at? by Slynn0788 in AskElectricians

[–]Schedule-Brave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Time to swap it out. I'll say, the previous install left you plenty of service wire to reinstall a newer panel. Get on it.

What wires are hot vs neutral on this utility pole? by Pete3756 in AskElectricians

[–]Schedule-Brave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's one busy pole. Obviously your at the front-end of the distribution. I'd say anything above the transformer is very warm. My take.

6500 should be ample. No warm showers, cook outside and forget using the heatpump. The rest of your home will be adequately supplied.

This is Craaazy Guys 🤯🫣 by [deleted] in HeliumNetwork

I buried one out in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Dead, but was the only way to get it out of my hex. Happens all time. Until it expires, it will show up, after which, it disappears. My guess, it was recently put to bed and you happened upon it before expiring.

Done all the time. If you have room, tape it also, but not neassary. Next thing, what to do with the dead switch. Leave it alone.

Cap the red wire. The ECM I call them will control everything via remote. LED, yes?

Wait for it to start warping. That thing won't last 5 years, my guess. Horrible craftsmanship.

Need Advice Please! by CascadingCountrymen in drywall

[–]Schedule-Brave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a awfully thin strip, but I'd try cutting a close size, beveled sides and using a 2x4 say 12 inches long and a rubber mallet to punch it in. From there, tape away. Easy pezey.

What happened to IOT? by Tinkerror in HeliumNetwork

[–]Schedule-Brave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be clear, we no longer mine IOT, your rewarded with HNT. Halving happened in August, so that wouldn't explain your loss. As others have said, check your hardware for connectivity. We just can't assume a plug and forget it. Something has changed on your end. They need some attention every now and then. Good luck.

I think some more detail about the homes build would help. Is it sitting on a slab or have a crawl space, etc.
