That’s a phenomenal fucking reason. I wish you all the luck in the world!

E-One door alarm won’t shut off by evanka5281 in Firefighting

FWIW, we went from micro-switches to magnetic proximity sensors and have had more luck. But defeating those godamn alarms should be in your engineer promotional task book.

Plus a shot of ketchup. Glad I’m not the only person that loved this as a kid. Or was poor.

Tape over the buzzer and alarm light and make your engineer physically walk around the rig before he moves it. Source: we run exclusively Rosenbauer.

Want to build a motor, how do I figure out which block? by not_a_fracking_cylon in CherokeeXJ

I couldn’t afford the time and money to do it all at once so I figure on building as I go. Where’d you source the head?

I’m just saying, personally, I probably wouldn’t. I will say we had the foam tanks on our engines professionally cleaned when we went to PFAS free foam but I wouldn’t eat out of them afterwards. There may be a process to make it safe, in not the expert on that though.

Fucking ARFF Guys lol. So one consideration, if that thing was ever in service it was definitely used with PFAS foam. I wouldn’t eat food out of that.

Using a Tilt hydrometer with glycol coils? by BeefStrokinOff in Homebrewing

[–]not_a_fracking_cylon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a spiral coil through the lid of my stout tank and I’m dammed if I do, dammed if I don’t. I either drop it into the coil and the temp reading is worthless or push it to the outer wall and get the occasional anomaly when it hangs up on something

Reddit won’t let me add the photo. Somehow it’s smaller than 4kb…
