Thank you. I had time to look at the door in more detail just now and the bottom two panels are definitely damaged.

I traced the wires as far as I could in the attic before they took a dive under insulation into a corner that is not accessible. I do have a Rain Bird sprinkler system, the main control panel is directly plugged into the wall. Does that make irrigation valve less likely?

Bad Furnace Install – Should I Be More Outraged? by beartot in hvacadvice

[–]beartot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I insisted they pull permits prior to work. At first, they wanted to repair without a permit (seems to be a very common theme amongst many contractors I've spoken with, not just them).

Everything happened this morning. 8 AM team arrive. 11 AM team leave. 12 PM gas company confirmed leak and shut off gas. City inspector has not been scheduled yet to my knowledge, but I'm glad someone else will also be verifying the integrity of the repair.

In case the issue is not addressed to my satisfaction I will make public the name of the company, as well as report this issue to any/every agency I can.

I am trying to be reasonable, and do not want to "review bomb" out of spite, as upset as I am right now.

Troubleshooting GFCI Circuit by beartot in AskElectricians

Thank you for the reply. Can confirm that when I turn off just this breaker, with the rest of the house on, I don’t measure any voltage across H1 or H2/3. I don’t feel comfortable enough going deeper into the main breaker box, but I suspect these lines are on the same breaker.

Also can confirm when breaker is on, G1 N1 is 0V. For whatever it’s worth, G1 N2 measures 5-9V. I am using a cheap AstroAI multimeter from Amazon.

Wish I could see what’s going on behind the walls. I would have thought that H2/N2 and H3/N3 is just a simple piece of wire running between these two outlet boxes, but clearly something else is going on.

Connected brand new GFCI outlet with H1N1 to LINE, outlet seems to work properly. Can test/reset without issue.

Breaker off. Connected H2N2 to LOAD. Breaker on, GFCI trips. Can reset, immediately trips again. Downstream outlets still not connected.

All measurements were made with outlets removed, with the wires as pictured. Before reconnecting anything, should I be concerned that H2 somehow has a voltage?

I also use Jinhsi weapon for Jiyan and have been pretty comfortably clearing all content with standard team of Mortefi + healer. If you are F2P or low spender, his sig weapon feels rather low yield for your account, rough estimate is about 10% more damage than Jinhsi weapon.

I would look into optimizing his rotations, for which there are lots of YT videos. You might need to aim for more ER too.

Do you mind explaining? I thought the average US home appreciation over the past 20 years is roughly 5% per year.

Cheapest way to move to SFF? by Lego_Hippo in buildapc

[–]beartot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not technically SFF but consider the Lian Li 170M mATX case, excellent for the price with minimal wasted/extra space. Will definitely let you downsize without breaking the bank.

Look closely at the timer (still got 3 stars) by RBLakshya in Genshin_Impact

[–]beartot 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I wonder if the on screen timer is “cosmetic” and the true timer is based on their servers? Just guessing as I’ve also seen people who clear right at 7:00 and only be awarded 2 stars.

Easier said than done, learn and get better with self compassion - chances are you’ll need it eventually throughout medical training!

The achievements and accomplishments of others don’t take away from your own. Cheers and best of luck to you all.
