So do you have shore power at this site?

Yup, that was my experience with the tankless we naively installed into my son's first home, a relatively small 800sf to boot. That and the maintenance headache involved in lubing that particular...

CPAP isn't a good reason for that. There's nearly no risk of path to ground through the sleeper, the mattress is rubber-ish, and the hoses are nonconductive vinyl. Besides, all the CPAPs I've ever...

Don't know what brand my original sleeve was (not Ford, because it had no rim). It got stolen when my utility ball got stolen, which is why I got the locking pin. Replaced it with the Curt from...

Do yourself a favor: take one of the linch pins out of the legs, go to the Hillman drawers at your HW store, and buy two that match but have rings on the ends, and replace the factory pins. You will...

I had the hitch pin hole rewelded today. The welder pointed out something I had missed: the pin hole in the Curt adapter sleeve is a full 3/4", so larger than the 5/8" pin and all the other holes....

The B&W folks were nice enough to offer me an RMA refund, so I'm taking it.

No, I should be clearer. Both holes are widening. Both holes are swaging the displaced material to both the inside and the outside surfaces of the receiver tube. I've only ever used angled pins, and...

I'd be more convinced of the angled pin argument if there was a groove developing on the outside of the receiver, but this is material migration into the inside of the receiver coupled with hole...
