Manual defrost freezer comments?
Published (2009-01-07 17:35:00)
I've gotten really wacky readings in the fridge or freezer with the infra-red device. Keep in mind that the infra-red devices measure the surface temperature. I think for some things, as soon as you open the door, the surface can quickly take on the temperature of the air that rushes in. That could be it, and/or it reads the 'steam' rising off , and I think that will be right around 32F, or you get some combo of those. I could...

I would recommend it. Ha

Probably tough to get a head in this industry they could use the bail out dollars.

I am pretty sure that Larry Flynt has his tongue firmly planted in his check but I know that Playboy is hurting so who knows, we have seen some crazy stuff in the last few months.

Rather than start a new thread I decided to revive this nearly-four-years-old thread. Bernstein's new book "A Splendid Exchange" is out, and that reminded me of his earlier book "The Birth of Plenty". Nearly four years ago I added it to my list and, hey, I finally got there. The library copy has been beaten to death, so it seems pretty popular with Hawaii's relatively small audience....

List of suggested things to be done at home for the ex-submariner that misses "the good old days on the boat". - a knol by Luis T. Puig 1. Sleep on the shelf in your closet. Replace the closet door with a curtain. Two to three hours after you fall asleep, have your wife whip open the curtain, shine a flashlight in your eyes, and mumble "Sorry, wrong rack". 2.

I am interested in purchasing a used kayak from a private party several states away. If I pay his price, he will pay to ship. Any ideas on handling the money part? This is several hundred dollars and it makes me a bit nervouse to just send him the money.

Morning, All - I thought I'd ask you to help me decide on this... I'm helping my brother buy a used car (for under $5000). Yesterday, we saw a 1984 Ford LTD Brougham on sale for $2995. The car is immaculate and only has 35,000 miles. Evidently it was owned by an older couple (the seller said he got it at an estate-like sale from down South). Everything works on it, it has no rust and ...

I have morse code coming in my computer speakers and stereo intermittently, to the point that I have to leave the stereo, radio and speakers off most of the time, it's so annoying. It may have something to do with the guy who moved in next door and erected several towers and wires all over, but I can't prove it. I'll leave out my numerous polite attempts to communicate with him directly. ...

Greetings ERs and fellow wannabe ERs: Not sure where to post this. Hoping several will have comments. 1. Is a manual defrost freezer supposed to keep a fairly consistent temperature? Within, say, 4 to 5 degrees? 2. What should one look for when purchasing? 3. Any other words of wisdom? Background: Inherited a huge, already ancient Ben Hur upright freezer ...

The recent thread re: "how long do you keep your car" got me thinking. There is certainly not a one-size-fits all answer to the question of how long one should keep a car - as this can be directly related to the cost of repairs as the car ages. It becomes much less cost efficient for someone who can't or won't work on their car to keep it as it ages. I'm certainly no expert mechanic, but ...

My formerly reliable car has been acting up lately and since it is a 99 Camry Solara with 87,000 miles on it I've been debating whether to trade it now while it still has some value or drive it until it drops . What do you usually do ?

Also read the same Consumer Reports Article. IN my local newspaper, "Road show section", (about car things), A person complained it cost almost $ 900 to replace 2 burned out headlights! Labor was $ 200. This number sounded crazy until other writer's verified they had similar cost's replacing the Pirus headlights. Happy new year.
