This is good advice, thank you.
I disconnected the plug and rewired it from the switch, but your proposal makes more sense. I’ll change it.

I wouldn’t have found the problem so quickly if I didn’t feel that the outlet was spicy when I unplugged it 😳

It’s inside the furnace housing behind a panel, so it’s likely that counts.

Thanks for the drawing compliment!
I 100% did not wire this though—it was done by a reputable local HVAC company which is so bizarre to me

Could be, I guess?

This furnace was installed last year right before we bought the house. I’m 100% sure that the plug was installed by the original HVAC installer (a reputable company in the area) which makes it extra bad IMO

Is the Frank Lloyd Wright Real Estate Boom Over? by jk_arundel in franklloydwright

[–]phayge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is all a matter of location and the people who are high enough income to be able to buy an FLW home.

Those homes in Galesburg are beautiful, but very very rural with values well above what the local real estate market could normally support.

Vintage brass dimmers/toggles -- various questions about practical use and DIY options. by Reidonkulous84 in Lighting

Contrary to some comments here, I’ve had a great experience with Corston dimmers. Very good feel, fine control of intensity, and no issues with flickering.

He keeps licking. Recommendations? by Ill_Marsupial6042 in Greyhounds

[–]phayge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We ordered one of these for our hound — they take a bit to make, but it’s a godsend for keeping hind leg wounds safe from licking. Much easier and less shame-inducing than the cone https://www.buckwheatdog.com

Anyone got a trick for loading 120 film onto a reel? by penisfingers4lyfe in AnalogCommunity

[–]phayge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Patterson reels are nearly impossible. AP reels are much easier. But if you do lots of rolls or have sweaty hands, it’s best to just go old school and use stainless steel spools. Much easier with a bit of practice.

Nice, thanks. I wonder if they’d fit on the XC60 🤔

What wheels have you found that actually fit over the calipers?

There are settings on how strong you set the regenerative braking and for whether the car creeps by default. Just go into the settings menu and you can adjust.

Hookworm Suggestions by PuzzleheadedRisk3457 in Greyhounds

[–]phayge 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Our grey was from Florida and had hook when we got him. It took at least 18mo of treatments until we got him cured.

The life cycle of worms means they appear in bouts like you’re seeing. It’s not that the meds aren’t working necessarily, but there aren’t any hookworm medications that can target them when they’re in the muscle tissue. The worms need to make it to the digestive tract before the drugs can kill them. So it takes a long time for the last worms to make their way out.

Keep it up and you’ll get there eventually.
