Not a bad idea. Maybe I'll stay on Eg and take a short jaunt on the 401 until Hurontario. Thanks for the suggestion.

I have to come into downtown TO Friday and thinking of taking the bike. My trip usually takes 3.5 hrs from where I am to the Yonge/Eglinton area with decent traffic. Can anyone suggest a non-400 series route to Orangeville that would allow for stops? I really don't feel like getting trapped in...

If you get bit by the wood and metal bug, you will know them very well. ;-) DAMHIK

I believe Busy Bee Tools sells it. Failing that, you can get it at Lee Valley tools.

You will need the magnetic mount that goes with it.

Sugru is the second greatest invention known to man. (Next to motorcycles, of course). It's a silicone rubber that comes in "silly putty" texture that you can form any way you wish. When cured, it's firm but flexible and extremely durable. Comes in a number of colors.

Biggest beef I've had with the smh10 has been the helmet clamp for earbuds. The jack sticks out from the back and was very brittle. Didn't take long to break it. Second version had some flex but only lasted a month before it you could see breaks in the cable. Added Sugru to beef it up and...

There's never exceptions when it comes to electrical safety. For a full explanation on proper connections, this link is about as comprehensive as it gets: http://members.rennlist.org/warren/Gen_Panels_Appl_Note_EN.pdf Edit: my personal preference is propane. Doesn't go bad, readily...

Your main breaker does not isolate the neutral, which is why it can't be used as an isolation point. The transformer works both ways. It steps the voltage down for each house in your neighborhood, but it will act as a step up transformer if backfed from the secondary ie your generator via your...

Cold rides or wet rides.

If you can only buy one pair, buy the boots. I have both boots and shoes. Shoes are for long, hot rides. The important thing is that they must cover the malleolus.

Some extra yard mtce required, though. ;-)

Aver media sells pc cards for analog cameras, along with powerful software that will turn your pc into a dvr. Most analog cameras are powered by 12vac, which can be run through the coax with the signal. This means you don't need to worry about electrical code, much less trying to find 120v...
