With my 13 fusion, and 17 F250, in the first few months of ownership I had various gremlins. A stop now prompt with complete loss of power. 8 inch display go black sane with the drivers display. Cross traffic alert failure and few others.
They happened once and cleared with a restart...
Sure is. It’s when the power company only varies your voltage and amps by no more then 2% instead of the normal 10%. It’s like the difference between non-ethanol and ethanol gas.
I never have ridden without a helmet. I raced motorcycles for many years. So on the road I wear my sport bike leathers no matter which style of bike I’m on, sport or Harley. It drives the no helmet t-shirt wearing Harley riders crazy.
I’ve had 2 very close calls. I high-sided my race Ducati...
The answer to your question is as short as possible for the extension cord. 100 feet is not short. Have a circuit from your main panel pulled and use a short extension cord from the new outlet to the BS.
If it is 500 watts the less than 5 amps.
For 100’ foot run at 120vac, 10 amps at 3% loss, 12 gauge. The key factor is what does the heater draw for amps. At 15 amps that number jumps to 10 gauge.
At 5 amps, 14 gauge.
And that’s copper in all cases. Aluminum gauge would be bigger in case you are thinking about making your own cable.
I was over by the Cape. I could watch the launches from my back yard. That got old. Being woken up with your house rattling at 3 am because the junior atomic rocket scientists at the cape needed that launch window.
I’m in Colorado now. Southwest Colorado. A very small farming community...
I solved the love bug, hurricane, high heat and humidity, and grossly high home owners insurance rates. I was easy. I moved out of Florida.
Now I get to watch the hurricane season and not deal with the aftermath or another home owners insurance rate increase or fund FPLs hurricane repairs. Did...
This is Tanana. She’s a rescue. And the same dog pictured in my avatar.
She’s ok with riding in the BS. But prefers the F250. She’s a big girl. 115 lbs of muscle with selective deafness and a very high prey drive. So no cats or other small animals on our property. She’s also our 5th rescue.
From the manual.
Choosing the Right Fuel
Your vehicle is designed to operate on regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87.
Some fuel stations, particularly those in high altitude areas, offer fuels posted as regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating...
This entire discussion including the thread on the other site should be labeled “Who gives a crap”.
My money. I buy what I want. Don’t like what I call it? Then you REALLY need to get a life. Because being offended by what something is called means you are probably offended when someone calls...
