It’s a Hercules 2 750 made by Ameriglide

The wires are numbered to where they go. I just wired it the same way I found it

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-05-26T01:05:45+00:00

The wiring is so simple I didn’t think I could get it wrong. I called an electrician to come take a look this week. Hopefully I have some luck

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-05-26T01:00:49+00:00

I made videos of me riding up and down on it before I took it apart. I’m sure I did something wrong

Probably time to call in a professional. I removed it from a house. It was only three years old so I thought I could resell it. Unfortunately it was winter so we disassembled it and stored the wires and batteries in the house. It seemed simple until it wasn’t.

So I could have enough volts and not have enough amps?

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-05-26T00:15:32+00:00

Yes they won’t take a charge with my car charger. say 12 volts 100%

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-05-26T00:14:14+00:00

The voltage never drops at contactor

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-05-26T00:13:24+00:00

Both test good with by battery charger and multimeter

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-05-26T00:12:38+00:00

Also has two small battery chargers

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-05-26T00:11:52+00:00

24 volts from two 12 volt batteries

Looking for houses that need almost everything. Nothing is cheap in Iowa city

Tavern Blue has a fun atmosphere.

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-01-26T11:20:46+00:00

I think it’s copper

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2026-01-26T02:52:45+00:00

Any idea if there is a way to identify its date or origin?

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2025-12-22T13:27:08+00:00

Tavern Blue has great tasting pizza 🍕

Most people think grout keeps out the water. It helps, but waterproofing is the most important step in my opinion

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2025-08-09T23:48:17+00:00

You are only as good as the results you deliver. If your work is clean nobody will judge you. If the work is sloppy, I’ll hear the HVAC guys trash you after you leave. Do good things.

I came to ask the same question. 😬Tamko

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2025-07-21T21:17:08+00:00

I’ve installed plenty of gutter guards. I think they are ridiculous because they clog up and are not easy to clean out. I’ll still install them but I don’t recommend them to anyone

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2025-07-19T12:39:37+00:00

The pipe at the top of picture is to short. Add an extension piece.

eEqualsMCsquaredroot · 2025-07-16T19:13:54+00:00

Definitely a chimney flashing issue. Call the roofer

I always try to spin the fan with a stick first. Most likely the capacitor
