Happy Birthday, Jeffie! :D

Re: Colorado shooter gave advance notice.. it didn't reach it's receiver til too late From that article, you got an "destroying our rights" angle to it? Wow. That's impressive. On an unrelated, related note, I read a week ago that after he had dyed his hair he was telling people that he was...

I'm not sure what "tour pet" means, but the switch just chooses the power source. For charging batteries using shore or generator power you'll need a battery charger, or a new inverter/charger.

That should work fine. When you say "the battery", do you mean the cranking battery? Why would you run DC loads off a starting battery when you have an aux battery or battery bank? Plus, the Power Center Converter Charger has 4 DC circuits to run loads off of anyway. The 600 Watts is the power...

Few get my sarcasm. :D If you want to keep your current inverter, and as long as it's performing properly you might as well, then all you need is the 3-way switch to accomplish what you want. The switch automatically switches between shore, generator and battery power. No need to unplug and...

Yeah, I do. The easiest/cheapest is what you described in the first paragraph of the original post. Easiest and cheapest is rarely the best. If you're in the market for a new inverter, they have inverter/chargers with built-in transfer switches. Otherwise, what you need is something along the...

That's such an ignorant post it's not even funny. I don't even know where to begin. OK, first off, life is not solely about living or dying, or the things that kill you or not. Life is about what you do with the life you've been given. It's about the pursuits you choose and how you live it. Life...

Not to be pedantic, but an inverter with shore power isn't an inverter. An inverter is a device that converts DC current into AC current. An inverter performs the opposite function of a rectifier (often called a converter). An inverter with shore power connections is an inverter/charger, two...

Sounds about right, confirmed several times by other drivers there. Maybe not that many miles routinely, but almost. That owner feels that anyone can make a good profit at 65 cents a mile, as long as you drive enough miles.

The NCAA has a deep-seeding need to be relevant. The playoff movement, the restructuring of conferences, lots of things that have left the NCAA on the outside looking in. What happened at Penn State was bad, but the reaction is basically, as the Paterno family stated, panicked. It's an...

Tolerance.

At least I haven't added to the woes of those sitting by taking many loads. I've been OOS for three weeks. Had a problem with the van, then another one, then another one, and then yet another one. All minor, more annoying than anything, but if only they'd reared the ugly head all at once instead...

Look at this picture the right way, or long enough, and the face will turn from face-on to profile. It's weird. focus on that little wisp of hair hanging down the forehead and you can see the profile.

When I was in school along with the morning announcements over the intercom we had a morning prayer. You could pray along, or not, you could listen, or not. But what you had to do was be respectful of others and sit there and be quiet. That's an important lesson which the morning prayer in...

As with any diesel engine, you don't want to lug the Sprinter. Doing so is even less fuel efficient than the wrong gear ratio. For a Sprinter you want it to be at least 2000 RPMs in order for it to be efficient. Oftentimes in city traffic, including going through small towns, it requires...

Extreme anything, heat, cold, altitude, will show any weakness in a cooling system. Bad thermostats, faulty fan clutches, dirty radiator fins, clogged radiators, cracked radiator cap seals, all will show up when in extreme conditions. A fan clutch is worn or seized bearings can put the fan...

I've seen a lot of awesome photos, videos, and time-lapse videos from the Space Station. But none of them come close to this video, a time-lapse video composed of still images from the ISS. All of the images are from the Image Science & Analysis Laboratory, NASA Johnson Space Center. It's...

It has to do with both the EGR valve and the DPF. Both need a certain heat and pressure to work effectively and efficiently.

Those who have problems getting to the URL in the title, it basically says that turtles are incredibly intelligent, but are modest about it. It also says that if you handle a turtle, that it'll pee on you and give you salmonella.

Correct. In the Gmail Settings, Accounts and Import, down in the "Send mail as" section, you can set up all the various addresses you need. You can set a default, and they will all be available in the "From" drop-down menu when composing mail. From the "Check mail from other accounts (using...
