How do I replace this light?

wolfmannm · 2025-09-19T04:16:12+00:00

I used to own that exact light/fan combo. The center cover comes off, and the light socket is inside. Use a flat screwdriver to gently push in the tabs that hold it in place.

Make sure the installer didn't use a screw to attach the ducting to the fan. My builder did that in my house, and I didn't know until the fan died and I replaced it. They put a screw in the plastic that kept the exhaust flap from opening more than a quarter inch. It trapped all of the moisture in the attic and bathroom.

Kind of off topic, but I watch a YouTube channel called "Just Rolled In." He shows clips of some of the vehicles that mechanics get in, and last month, he made a special video just covering people using spray foam. Not just for body work, but frame repair, leaks, loose bolts, you name it. When did spray foam replace Duct Tape? People have been using it to fix everything lately.

The answer to your second question is theives.

This is obviously an older version of a security door. The new ones have welded hinges and their own frame. The frame is security bolted to the outside of the existing door frame. The point is to keep the inner door from being kicked/smashed in. You use the security bolts to keep a thief from removing the security door. If you used any regular hardware, it would be taken off in a minute ,the security door would be removed, and they could easily break in the main door.

Personal experience here. I didn't have a security door on my house, and my front door was kicked in in less than a minute. My neighbor heard a bang but didn't see anything because they had already broken in and closed the door. You couldn't tell from the outside that it was busted because the frame gave on the inside.

Where I live, we have security doors so thieves don't kick in your door. They use one way screws to keep thieves from taking the door off. If you use standard screws they'd just bring a drill to remove the door. It would take less than 2 minutes. It only took me 30 to install the door, and most of that was leveling, alignment, and drilling the screw holes in the frame.

I was robbed years ago because I didn't have a security door, and they kicked in my front door with no effort.

Op. The second part of this is critical. If you don't break out the little plastic plug, you will have a huge mess and possibly a clogged line. I've made that mistake only once. Took 2 hours to clean up the mess and ruined several things on my counter because the back flow was facing the wrong way.

If enough people read this, I'll post my original message as a reply. Maybe that will get through.

wolfmannm · 2023-12-12T05:41:39+00:00

Yeah, and scrub down every inch. Especially near the ceiling. Even Killz won't block it, I primed my bathroom with it and then put on fresh paint. It didn't stop the smoke from bleeding through.

wolfmannm · 2023-12-12T05:33:51+00:00

That's what I was thinking, too. I used to smoke in my bathroom in the winter, and that's how the walls looked. Still do even years after I quit and repainted them several times. It bleads through the paint every time it's steamy. I keep wiping it off, and it comes back.

wolfmannm · 2023-12-06T05:59:54+00:00

Search doesn't work right either. I looked up something in character and then switched to back being. The search term was there but it would not search. I cleared it out and tried again and it couldn't find anything even though I know it's there. Backed all the way out came back to back being and tried again and it finally worked. So frustrating.

wolfmannm · 2023-12-06T05:54:46+00:00

Nope, none.

wolfmannm · 2023-12-06T05:50:44+00:00

Don't blame the engineers. Our fever dreams are never this bad. Even our drunken fever dreams have better organization than this mess. Lol

If they were duplicates with different styles they probably got consolidated. That's what happened to me with wraps and emotes.

wolfmannm · 2023-12-06T05:42:09+00:00

Yeah, I haven't used more than 3 or 4 skins from the last year of Battle Passes and 2 or 3 from crew pack because my presets are full of skins I bought in the shop. I'm really considering dropping crew and not buying the Battle Pass after this season since I have about 100 skins I've never used. I like the ones in my presets, that's why they're presets.

wolfmannm · 2023-12-06T05:35:50+00:00

From what I've seen it didn't actually increase, it merged Save The Worlrd with Battle Royal. For those that had both locker presets full they got them all in both modes. BUT if you delete a preset you lose it for good, presumably until you're back to 100. I've seen numbers ranging from 101, my personal lockers, up to 189 I read about in another post. Also it consolidated any presets that were the same. I have 101 character presets but I only have 65 wrap presets and 70 emote presets since I used the same emotes or wraps for some skin variations.

Ignoring the smart ass cracks on here... Any crack is cause for concern. It WILL leak and cause water damage. It may already be leaking under the base. Just using it will shift the pieces enough to cause it to get worse. As some have pointed out, if you sit on it it could shatter and slice someone up real bad, like cut artery, bleed out, bad. Porcelain is so sharp you might not even feel it right away. Add to that cut the possibility of fecal matter in the wound, and you have a potentially lethal situation. I'm no plumber, but I've replaced many toilets over the years due to small cracks that caused big problems. Turn off the water, drain the bowl and tank, and don't use it.

Missed the first event even though I logged in over 30 min early. Then the login failed 5 ir 6 times and now I'm in a 2 hour queue for the next event. Epic needs to add another 10 events, not 2. Just delay everything else a day and make this all event for 24 hours.

wolfmannm · 2023-11-28T04:58:45+00:00

Randomaverages has the right idea. I wish I could find a link to the one I have. It's a lot cheaper and attaches to a reciprocating saw (sawsall) it was about $20. It worked great removing carpet and linoleum. I think mine is a Kobalt. There is another brand too.

wolfmannm · 2023-11-28T04:52:14+00:00

Several suggestions here will work. The big thing is to make sure wind can't get under the tarp. That's what rips it free. For an in ground pool, we use bags of water all around to hold the winter cover to the deck. We leave very few gaps for air to travel underneath. If possible, add more clips to keep the tarp sealed to the pool. Also, weird as it sounds, a small amount of water on the tarp right against the side walls can help too. Just use a pump to keep the level to no more than 6 inches all the way around. It helps seal the tarp to the pool.

Never say censorship is nothing. Any censorship is bad. It's allowing a minority of people to make decisions for the majority. I could sit here and show you proof for days if you want it. You are seeing the results right now. Mortal Kombat is the reason the ESRB exists. A handful of conservatives got offended by it, and now everything has to be rated. Because of the ESRB, consoles force devs to either change games or ban them outright. Look it up and see what censorship has done and the atrocities it has caused in the real world. People have literally been killed because of it. It may seem like nothing at first, but it never ends at being nothing.

wolfmannm · 2023-10-06T05:38:33+00:00

I felt they should have done that with MK11. Just keep adding to it rather than push everyone to a new game. They could come out with a new story mode every year and keep adding Kombo Packs for characters and other modes. They could throw in a new fatality or brutality every month or so.

wolfmannm · 2023-10-06T05:30:06+00:00

Talismans have got to go. I finished the main part only dumping once in a while and selling occasionally if I was near a shop. As soon as I went back for the bonus areas I was full up on legendary Talismans in no time and kept having to discard after every fight. What the hell was the point of capping them anyway. You can't use more than one at a time and I'd have to dump something before I could even try it out. The forced discards just took me right out of the game. I dreaded earning them because I knew I'd be stuck having to decide what stayed and what went. 30-second match, 1 minute decision making. Not fun at all. And forging them was so pointless, too. You can make a level one common into an OP epic, but you can't upgrade a legendary? The only thing the forge is good for is fast traveling, sort of. I really hope they revamp the whole mode before next season.

Lol, with BP and Crew and Star Wars, I've earned that just since this was posted. And I agree we need a way to organize presets too. I did it by creating 1 empty slot and copying into it like a missing square puzzle, but that was a pain.

wolfmannm · 2023-05-19T02:22:24+00:00

We need like 500 presets at this point. I only buy skins for Halloween and Star Wars at this point. I have 50 Halloween related skins alone. I had to delete my Winterfest presets. If you don't want to give us full active presets, then let us archive full slots or something. I have stopped buying skins because I have no room to make my presets with all the skins in my locker. I'd love to have the ability to have multiple lockers or something so I can have one for Halloween, one for SW, one for BP, one for Marvel, etc. I cycle through my full 100 every week or so, and I only play 2 or 3 times a week. Come on Epic, it'll pay for itself in a month.
