Holy shit. I wonder how many where without power as a result of that?!??!

Marginally better than Schit, marginally.

Enjoy the boat, looks like a great way to make memories.

if you ever post something this dumb again I'll ban you permanently.

I think that boards for this should be regulated in terms of who they are sold to, no joke.

Happy BIrthday!

Life is short don't read the website if you don't like it...

For shame... PM shortly.

Currently working on my taxes which are working out much better than expected. I worked a shade over 400hrs of overtime last year which natually threw off my income a bit.

Grahame, should I just shoot you my steam ID?

I'm listening now, it's not disappointing.

Swallow the Sun - Emerald Forest and The Blackbird Oh hell yes.

The 300 series of trafos tend to be very conservatively rated. I ran one in my modified Wheatfield and it while spec wise it was nearly identical to the 200 series that it replaced it was probalby 50% larger and ran much, much cooler. I ran one inside the Exstata that I built and didn't have noise or heat issues.

I'm looking forward to Emerald although I freely admit that I'm a big fan of New Moon so I hope that means that it'll be even better. What I can't figure out yet is when the actual US release date is, anyone?

For the pre and CD I'd take the idiots approach and look at the primary side fuses and see what their ratings are. That might be a half-decent estimate of start-up current draw but who knows about steady state. I don't think either's draw should vary all that much in use, should they? The mono's, bah, I wouldn't even hazard a guess but again they're probably fused... As to how to size the trafo, search me, if you neead a larger hole for a new trafo let me know. That I might be able to help with. From what I remember of Mark (voodoo) buildilng one of these there was a fair amout of give and take to the design in picking the right trafo that wouldn't give you way too much V-out but also wouldn't melt under load.

Whoa Marc, very nice.

Can't wait till later to do the same.

Just put a few in.

On the ground in Maine. No bags but whatever, that should show up in a few days. And Dan, I have little to no choice when it comes to route when traveling for work. It's whatever is cheapest for the taxpayers.

It was the flights in seatac that were the issue. Made the connection with 10 to spare before the door closed. Had to run a mile thru ohare to make it which sucked ass. Nothing like the connecting flight being not one but two terminals away.

I'm on plane #1, leaving an hour late so we'll see how it goes from here... the pilot had better drop the hammer. And at least I got an exit row seat. Leg room ftmfw.

Fuck fuck fuck. First flight delayed, got transferred to another earlier flight. Rushed to that gate to find that flight delayed with a maintenance issue. Now waiting for an updated ETD to see if I'll miss my connection in Chicago which is the only flight of the day to my final destination.

That's all I'm hoping for (no delays) and that the car starts when I get to the parking garage. I have the weekend to recover fromt he long travel so I'm trying no to think about the short term pain of being 6'-1" and stuffed into economy class seats for 7-1/2 hours.

Glad she's ok, cars are easily replaced. Me - currently packing and getting ready for the reverse 16hr travel day to get back home. If all goes well I'll get back to my house around 2am EST.

Knowing how warm T2 knobs get I worry about the life span of a wooden got getting temp cycled like that.
