I watched the whole video. 10 minutes for an outlet isn't too shabby, but it adds up when you have so many to do. Those connectors are pretty convenient though. You make it look easy.

Good work!

Thanks glatt....it is a pretty easy process. I did however find some pretty spooky situations. For example: loose connections, figured out some jackass reversed the hot and neutral wires the hard way (zap! Ouch!), and one blind cover that when i peeked inside for shits and giggles found an exposed wire splice.

We are ordering about 30 more connectors. The main goal this weekend was to do the outlets that have a constant load or a possible high amp load such as the vacuum cleaner.

How many amps does a pilot draw?

Not exactly what I did today but something I saw. After I drop my wife of at the Shell Refinery here in Geelong, I go for a 2.8 km walk along a wildlife trail not far away. I like it because it is relatively quite and there are lots of Australian black swans and ducks and other birds on the water in the lagoon.

When I got back to my car there is a boat ramp near by and here is what I saw and it was not there when I drove by earlier to go for my walk. Seems like someone drove a pickup truck or Ute as they are called here, down the boat ramp into the lagoon. The wind is really whipping up today and the tide was coming in so much of it was going underwater. I was able to read USI on the back and a phone number so I called the number from my mobile.

"Hello, USI."
"Hi, are you missing a truck?"
"Yes, we had a truck stolen today. Have you seen it?"
"Yes, I see it right now. It is in the water at Limeburner's Lagoon near the Geelong Grammar School."
"In the lagoon?"
"Yes and the waves are up to the front windscreen with white caps breaking all around."
"Oh thank you, we had a truck stolen this morning. Where abouts is it?"
"Just past the boat ramp."
"Are you American?"
"Yes, I was just driving by and saw it and could read the phone number so I thought I'd give you a call."
"Ok, Thanks for calling us!"
"No worries!" I feel like such a local when I get to say that! :D

The Geelong Grammar School is one of the most prestigious in Australia, as I recall reading Prince Charles attended there for awhile as a lad. It had kids up to 18 or so who then go off to University, Wonder if it was a couple of them out for a joy ride?

that's my truck!!

zippyt 12-03-2012 10:13 PM

Nu Uhhh , its a SHARK !!!

xoxoxoBruce 12-03-2012 10:47 PM

Uh Oh, now you're a suspect. :haha:

ZenGum 12-03-2012 10:49 PM

Ooh dear.

Good of you to call it in, but it'll be pretty much cactus inside.

I doubt the GGS boys would go joyriding in anything so plebian as a ute.

The buoy looks red.
So that owl and pussycat at least knew to stay to the right in their escape to sea.

Be on the lookout for some honey and maybe some money washing ashore.
