I had the same issue with my gopro batteries. I was using 2 gopro 3 camera's. Since the 3s are so outdated, I upgraded to 2 gopro 11s. I bought 7 total batteries for the 11s. My research found to only use "white top" gopro batteries. They last the longest in cold weather. You can fix the flooring separation buy using a rubber mallet. Put a little wood glue in the gap then using the mallet, pound the board over until it closes the gap. It will take some time and be difficult but it will move. You can do this in this location because you only have 1 full piece and 1 partial piece to move over.

As said last year, chains on your ATV would stop all the traction issues you have late fall, winter, and early spring, we chain up our ATV and it’s amazing what it will go through, including the mud it will go through with chains. Skidders in the bush are chained up all the time, OR just keep getting stuck. It takes 45 minutes to do it the first time.

Mine is a Plowing beast with Close spaced V-Bar Chains on all 4. Had to ad 1 1/2" spacers to the Front for clearance issues. It is heavy too. The 700 Polaris is 748 Lbs alone. Now add the Deep Cycle battery on the Front, Hydraulic pump and Controls on the back . The moose Plow with Hydraulics is over 150+ Lbs I'm 235 Lbs, 100+ Lbs worth of Chains etc. It can make some impressive Piles of Snow. I have a Rear suspension Lock and 4 stiffer Springs and The Factory Polaris Aluminum Box on the Back Has Stuff in it to add to the Weight... I have more Hours on it Plowing Snow and Wood hauling than trail Riding . It's like a stiff 1 Ton truck in the Woods for Trail Riding HAHAHAHA. Mike M Central Wis.

Hi Russel! People who fixes up furniture often use a colored wax - you heat it up and it melts down into that crack, then you take away the excess and sands it carefully with a fine sandpaper.. This way the boards have the opportunity to expand and contract and will not be broken... The wax seems to be sold in small sets with warying colors, so you can use the one which suits best... Hugs from us in Sweden!

Russel, you lowered my BP again with the karate kick to the pallet with a swan dive into the snow! My thought on the electrical problem, check all wires moving the might have caused one to be cut touching the electrical box. Do by process of elimination just remove the wire from the circuit one at a time until you find the problem. Oh yes on the sub's why don't you get two or three and take home for snacks. Have a wonderful week. God Bless.

Russ, my daughter worked at and managed a Subway shop for ten years. If you knew the things she knew you'd never eat Subway again! She went thru over 300 employees in ten years. They finagled the temperature control sheet reedings and inspections on a regular basis. It was encouraged by her district manager. I love a good sub myself but she cant bring herself to eat at one period. Love the channel and videos! keep them coming!

Yes, the smoothness of the trail is quite evident in the footage. It's ever so much more fun zooming along with you It reminds me of being on a snow machine. I could watch those cloud time lapses all day. Last night I was sitting by the window and the not quite full moon was peaking through a crack in my venetian blind. It will be full moon on Sunday. Wow, that Cheesy Chili Mac Lunch looked like Throw Together Glory. I make one myself with rotini, tuna, asparagus, parmesan, cannellini beans, onion, basil, and spinach. You could start it out just like you did with leftover mac and cheese if you wanted. Sauté up the veggies and sling it all in. Veggies are mix and match whatever you have. I think the pallet won that round, but i'm pretty sure the tires are afraid of you now.

Ain't nothing more fun than screwing around with a box containing multiple wires. And of course you never really think how they're hooked up before you start disconnecting them. I was doing a box with the exact same setup as yours. Figured I would remember how they were hooked up. After all, only a simple man would forget, right? I ended up calling an electrician to do it. Took him 5 minutes. Cost me $60 bucks.

You have a short in that box you were fiddling with. Check to see if a hot or neutral is touching ground or bond. And of course you have 120v between hot and ground that will never change. Make sure that you have 0v between neutral and ground assuming that your panel has a properly grounded neutral of.course

it's normal to get 120v between the black wire and the ground since the black is line wire and ground completes the path back to the panel. there must be a black wire touching a screw or the box somewhere to create your short

Modern light switches have a ground screw and 2 hot screw connections one hot screw connects to the black wire bringing power in from the breaker. The other connects to the black wire going to the light. The ground screw usually green is for the ground wire. Usually bare wire or in older wiring with green insulation connects to the usually green screw on the side of metal part of the switch that is part of the front of the switch. Guessing on how it is wired all white wires should be connected together. My guess is that you got one of the hot (black) wires connected to the ground screw on the switch causing a short when the switch is in the box. I can't tell for sure without seeing how it is connected.

I had the same problem. Absolutely don't take up the flooring, You can use a colored flexible caulk to fill the gap. If the floor expands in warmer weather (as mine does) the caulk will move with it and will expand and shrink with the temperature just as the flooring does and it, like the flooring, is waterproof.

It has to be something in the electrical box or the wire you snaked through, and that sucks going through hard spaghetti and wire nuts. After having rewired our house with junction boxes and switch boxes jamb packed with 12 and 14 gauge wires and nuts, it always happens when you push the switches back in...and it pisses you off!!!

From what I can see. It would appear that your metal box is overloaded ( To many wires) Something that would help running wires through walls is a "fish tape" (Ask Ray). About the floor, that's how it works! I noticed you didn't put down the foam under layment. That would have helped. Hang in there kid!!!!!

To fix the floor you could use double suction cup lifter. The kind they use to move windows to realign it. Or if you have a foot of 2x4 ,2 sided tape and a hammer handy. You can stick the piece of 2x4 on the board, then hammer it back in place. Pea Soup ✌️

Nice footage of the outdoors and the two girls. Not sure how many batteries you are going to charge but could you have placed a multiple plug and screw to wall and be plugged into socket by the sink? Drill hole on bottom of cupboard and place multiple plugs inside of cabinet if you wanted them hidden. May save some work on your multiple switches and it sounds like you have a double switch within the mix which can be tricky.

My son lays flooring for a living and I asked his opinion. He doesn't know your exact products but here is what he said: the OSB board underlayment needs a layer between it and the flooring product, or this gaping will continue to occur, especially due to the extreme temperature fluctuations. He suggested foam backed panels to be put in place if you do decide to take it up and re-lay. He said the flooring can't slide against a foam panel like it can on the bare OSB underfloor. He thought maybe the pressure of the island may contribute to similar issues in the near future due to the locking action of the panels themselves. Or suggestion #2: put a rubber backed kitchen floor mat over the area with the gap. Then it's a problem for another day 😉

There's a short in the box somewhere. See if a hot or neutral is touching the box, it may even be one of the switches is not correctly wired or is bad internally. 120 volts from black to the box is normal, you're completing the circuit.

Gorilla doublesided tape, a good foot long - Tape it to the board that is to be moved - Then put a plastic or steel block, also one foot long, on the other sticky surface of the tape. Wait for it to set up for 10 min or so - Then tap on the block stuck to move the board below - To remove the tape a little heat from a hair drier or heat gun should soften it off enough to release.

Problems solved. You can knock that flooring back together as many have suggested. Have someone stand on the floorboard that is downstream of the gap and then kick the board back together. Also you can have someone stand downstream and knock on the end of the row with a floor tool. It is normal to measure 120V from black wire to ground. In your service panel the neutral and ground bus bars are connected.

When the neutral wire is connected to the earth wire in a socket, it creates a short circuit. This can cause electrical current to flow through the earth wire, potentially causing damage to the electrical system and potentially causing an electrical shock hazard to people or animals in contact with the earth---its SHOCKING ---is it electric or solar power? solar power has to go through an inverter unless you use a 12volt cig lighter plugs and accessories. You really have to almost have a 24v system for over 1000watts. Their are 12v, 24v,48v power (3000w) in the circuit, compared with 12V or 24V system for house hold appliances. Try to remember that your whole system can only apply to certain items 12v is very low for most house hold items.The whole battery system that has to be big to draw most 120v items 1000w for 10 minuets is a lot of drain on a solar powered system vs. USB (2.4amps or 2.4A, 12watts or 12W) chargers are often required by modern phones and tablets in order to charge the device. Now they have fast chargers 10 minuets If you see a cable that puts out power at 5V, 9V, 12V or even 2000mA, this is a sure sign that it's a fast charger. On the other hand, anything below 1000mAh is considered a slow charger. So look for 5V-2A or 5V-2000mA. So if you were going to make a shelf you would want to run with the fast charger system. What I mean is you have to run certain items with a certain system 12v cig road pro slow cooker, coffee maker, doesnt use a 120vplug -- they have plus that go into a 12v cig lighter USB adapter 2.0 amp etc.... using 50 watts an hour of a solar system battery @ night drains your batteries, I dont know how you leave 20 watt light on over night that goes through an inverter from solar panels. A lot of people have generators that plug into their electrical system off grid.....that support the use of regular items washer, dryer, TV, coffee pot etc....I dont know if you can say whats the problem if you dont know what they system is city electric, solar, generator etc....if you were going to run it off solar you could make your own charging system during the day without an inverter. does it look complicated? lololool sorry

Russ, RE: Flooring... Put your shoes on. Stomp/push the board. As you are stomping downward, also push forward. The board will snap back into place. Might take a few stomps. Or, if you have a flooring hammer (usually a hard yellow on one side, and white soft rubber on the other), you can use the soft side to try to do the same thing as I just described. Otherwise, as you stated, you'll have to pull it all apart.

Your electrical item sounds like you need to verify your hot nad neutral wires as It is fine that there is 120 between the hot and box or ground ,that is how it is supposed to be.Maybe some confusion on the voltage side of the switches and the neutrals. I would send a diagram if I knew what each wire was going into the switch box. In future any type of junctions should always be in a seperate box as you are creating more of a possibiliity of shorts or discoonects in future as the box is reassembled and disassembled

the electrical caps---have to be twisted on the wires and then crimped or they really fall off, its actually dangerous if they fall off because they can arc and spark. They also have connector tabs, heat shrink connector wire goes in each side the metal is in the middle and you crimp both sides, the other connects you place the wire in and close the top and snap it. Their are a lot of better wire connectors then the orange ones you have-caps. You really should redo your wire caps if they fall off. the best one allow your wires to flat connect on each side like heat shrink connectors. If your just shoving it all in there i guess people twist and crimp the caps. their are better ways to do it. was that to long writing? Anyway I was wondering if you had a water tank for your fireplace? you can always take showers from the water being heated from the fire place. I cant imagine what its like to live out there. I live in the desert and my pipes break outside every year. I cant imagine what its like to be more northern It's definitely a lifestyle in every way to live there ---water, heat, electricity, food, clothing, washer dryer --shopping for long term stuff...loneliness being away from other people or being alone a lot(makes everything hard work) and the conditions are dangerous..... life is fully of difficult decisions..absolutely ---homes are burdens---some people live in RV's in arizona for the winter and drive up to cooler areas in the summer......thats a great idea!! great videos thats for your effort and video skills...

Russel - The center switch you have a white wire on one side of the switch nd a black wire on the other side of the same switch. Looks like a dead short.

Hey , easy fix on the floor , put tennis shoes on stand on the left board beside the crack use your other foot, and you kick it with the bottom of your other foot, and it will grab and slide it into the other one

Hey Russell. I see that you finally took my advice about pulling a skid as a plow. That's what we do north of you. And pulling it as a diamond rather than a square is always best (as you did). Great video.

Perhaps make your charging station could be the middle shelf. And perhaps you could tap into the plug to the left instead of the switches to the right. Update: Ok, nevermind... you kept doing the project. Good luck.

about the floor, have the same problem. You can use a piece of wood and tape it to the board and use a hammer to put the two together again.
