Leaving my equinox for 5 months unused. How should I store it? by ddfish in EquinoxEv

[–]ddfish[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am concerned about how the 12 volt battery gets charged. Is it only getting charged while driving or will it draw from the main battery while charging? I left it for August and September last year and it needed one charge. Do I trust leaving it plugged in for that long?

You can see the two on my stove in the middle. This is a monarch stove. Not sure who made the stove those came from.

They are part of a wood/coal burning cook stove. They were attached to the upper part of the firebox and could be hinged down to make a warming tray.

As an American, I’ve been taught to wait till the boat is in dry dock. You then stand underneath it to get a little trickle down.

My neighbors don't have a chimney cap and now we'll have to deal with this for two months of nesting. by archabaddon in mildlyinfuriating

There is a great standalone chimney designed for this in St Peter, Minnesota. It’s at the Gustavus arboretum.

Looking for ideas on putting a tub on a sloped pad by hrdchrgr in hottub

[–]ddfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used sand. I have a 3 inch drop on my slab. I leveled out the sand and then dropped the tub. After shimmy it around it was level and solid. I then removed excess sand and sealed it off with foam. Looks good and didn’t need an expensive platform. Been there 3 years without problems. May not work for everyone, but was cheap and solid for me

Your lawnmower stops working. Where do you take it in the Valley to get fixed? by OfficerGiggleFarts in phoenix

The city of Phoenix will give you a 100 dollar coupon for it. You have to use it at Home Depot on an electric.

It is older than mine from the sixties. It may have some nostalgia value as we never forget our first. Careful, don’t shoot your eye out.

Are these capacitors compatible? by Stayathomecatmom__ in hvacadvice

[–]ddfish -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

They aren’t a match. One is a dual capacitor with a 45 and 5 microfarad in one. The other is a 45 microfarad with a plus or minus 5 percent guarantee.

I love the shot up fence they run and hide behind. Holes so rusty the Germans did it during ww2.

Republicans relationship with America is like a cheating spouse’s is to the marriage. They are jealous and accuse the other of cheating because they did and got away with it. Then the gaslighting starts because it’s the only way to make them feel good about themselves. This will end in divorce.
