I would like to see how those pictures are wiredup to the generator inlet plug. Am looking to do something similar, but i don't want to pay $100 for a through the the wall kit. Want to build a box that fits in my window. Or power doesn't go out enough to drill a how through my wall.

👍 Thanks much for the video. It must have taken a very long time to accomplish this tool storage system. I'm currently using the dreaded pegboard method with many specialty hangers for drills, etc. All cost a chunk of change, and I'd hate to trash them. I wonder if I could incorporate most of the pricey ones into something similar to what you have. It would be a huge improvement.

I'm a second generation electrician. I carry an electrical contractor's and master electricians license and I have 33 years in the trade. I have installed thousands of these fixtures since they were introduced to the market. I always use the end knockout and a Romex connector. I leave the quick connects in place for warranty purposes but I never use quick connects or backstab devices for any other connections. The box says 20 years but that's the actual LED module not the driver. From my experience, you will be replacing some of your fixtures within 5 years of install, about the equivalent of replacing quality LED bulbs in the same period of time for cost comparison.

Use a small auto funnel to make the tapered wire
@conruscoКүн бұрын
I would think using both sides of the box knockouts would work better in some installation cases. Using wire nuts properly is just a notch above most DIY installers skill level, therefore I would recommend real WAGO connectors in those situations. On a side note since you ran 20amp wiring throughout your house do you also have 20amp receptacles installed as well ?

‼‼‼ I would use copper wire instead of galvanized. The zinc coating on galavanized wire will release toxic fumes.

Totally agree with you. Sponge wet sanding is great when you have walls to wall mud no drywall paper. Can’t get a feather edge on drywall

‼‼‼ Technically, the wire doesnt have to have a conical shape. This is only for cosmetic purposes. It has no effect on the functionality of the lamp. Also NEVER use galvanised wire. (Toxic fumes) 🎉🎉

If you shut off your main breakers coming "in" you can run a male extension cord from your generator to any outlet with another male end on the same cord to power your home.

This is nice simple solution, thanks for sharing. I'm a fellow 'upstater' so i especially appreciate the advice! A few thoughts, a 'real' transfer switch with selectable line/off/grid levers might make for a nice and cost effective improvement to the existing system. Also, since your channel appears very robust, you might consider contacting Anker or other makers of battery chargers and ask for a free "demo" unit to evaluate. It seems like there are ton of "reviews" of these things by KZbinrs. Adding battery and solar would be a nice option in addition to the ones you already have in place ...although you do need sun ! :) Just curious how your well pump is only 120? How deep is the well? thanks again!
@herrickkimball3 күн бұрын
My well is just under 60 feet deep. Water level is at around 30 feet. I chose to use the 120 pump because I had the well drilled some time after I bought the generator and it doesn’t have a 220 outlet. My previous pump was for a 10 foot deep spring-fed hole in the ground. That’s the kind of thing you do when you build your own house out in the rural countryside without a bank loan. I think a transfer switch would need to go near the main panel? That is upstairs in the front of my house. I’d rather keep the generator in back, out of sight. If I were to build another house I would put the transfer switch in. I’ve resisted marketing or otherwise recommending anything given to me. I get emails with offers of free things. Not yet. Maybe someday. Probably never. Thanks for the comment. 👍

@@herrickkimball Thanks Herrick for the information. makes sense for such a shallow well. Mine is 380 feet (with a half horse submersible pump) I built my house without a bank loan too, always making trade offs between "best way" and "most cost effective way". We were without power for about 3 days with that last wet snow pile up in late November. At least NYSEG got us back in under a week and to be fair they are usually pretty quick to get the power back up by us. Esp. when you consider all the trees hanging so close to the lines. Nice to have backups for sure! Yeah transfer switch very close to main panel (save on wire costs, and installation time). I'm doing mine in the spring.

Admirable setup. One issue. What do you do when the power goes out during a storm. You go through the process to connect the generator and right after you connect it the power comes back and you have to disconnect everything again.

I also wonder about a 4” piece of the copper pipe but leave 1” to hold the wick, then cut the remaining 3” into 3 or 4 legs that you bend out and the legs hold the wick holder in place. Thoughts?
@Fengshawn864 күн бұрын
I’m curious why the wire? Just so it’s all self-contained with lid sealed for storage? Seems like the best thing would be to put the wick holder in the lid… but then the fuel would slowly evaporate. Is that why you do all this with the wire?

A way to change the decimal number to a fraction without using the online calculator is to multiply the decimal by the denominator of smallest increment of your tape measure...probably 1/32", then round to the nearest whole number. That's the numerator of the fraction. In this case, 0.9051 x 32 = 28.963, which rounds up to 29; 29/32"

Is that junction box even up to electrical code? From what I've heard on some electrician channels, electrical boxes have a specific cubic inch rating, and connections of a given number of a given size of wire must be contained in a box with at least the specified cubic inch rating for that package. From a practical standpoint though, it doesn't really matter because that's what stores sell, and what folks buy, so we have to deal with it. Thanks for the great video.

My minibeds are about 7 yrs old. I was about to give up gardening because of so much weeding, but minibeds saved me from having to do that anymore. My covercrop this year was bean-pea-vetch, which in my zone 9 doesn't winter kill. No cover crop winter kills here. So I'm pulling by hand, laying in minibed and covering with whole oak leaves. Hardwire cloth keeps it down to decay and from blowing away. Great update.
