Could of used one locating a bad solenoid on a furnace mount humidifier the other day. They heat up just relays when bad.

The Thermal Master P1 might be good enough for most around-the-home uses.

I bought that and returned it. The app is pure garbage, and before I accepted the completely illegible, 0.1pt font agreement, I realized it was pure, untrustworthy chineseum, and removed all traces.

And with it comes.....



I need to figure out a heater solution for the garage that doesn't involve me guessing when and how long to run the tank-top propane heater so things won't freeze overnight (as well as the risk offorgetting to turn it off).

And our weird streak of weather continues. Manic... did you feel the earthquake this morning?



I also ordered one of these for the F150. I really like the Fosgate in there right now, but I absolutely LOVE the American Bass sub in the Toyota. So, I let it suck me in.

Hey Ohio... do you have natural gas plumbed out there in the garage? That little cayenne heater that I have is a bad boy. Wish I could let you borrow it... I'm not using it right now.
