What not to do with your NEW Ushio

Ya don't cycle the power really fast by hitting the on/off switch on your Power Bar.

Bummer!

When I talked to you earlier and you said it had "blown out" you weren't kidding.

I've never seen that happen before.

Careful with your new XM's. I broke one screwing it in the socket. Seemed like the glass was thinner than my Ushio's, but that's only a guess.

 

Gee Wiz Jason! What did you do? Switch it on and off a few times? [smiley=bawling.gif] [smiley=shocked2.gif]

 

That was a quick what, $125ish? Ouch.

 

Yup $125.00 but the other one was badly burnt as well so I thought it best to replace them both (don't need the other one going while we are out) so in the end $250.00

I was lifting my CA reactor out and knocked a power bar switch, not enough to turn the power off but just enough to cycle the power for a millisecond. So I've learned don;t just power of some things when your screwing around power off everything

Dude that sucks!!

Maybe this will prevent someone else from doing it. Karma to ya.

Sheesh, isn't it always the dumb stuff that bites you?

Think of it as stimulating the economy.

 

Jason,

What were you trying to do, get the disco lights going or something? Sorry mate, that's another one for the DH Bucket
