The Energon Pub

If ya don't mind; can you snap a pic of the lights before and after you hang them.

That sounds pretty cool.

I've been staring at my shelves lately with that long and lusty look of rearranging.

Me too, I was really hoping to find them, and cheap to boot. It's ok, it just means I am supposed to continue down the path I'm on

I bought a set of those micro lights last Xmas, but never put them to use. They seem like they would work out real nice.
My whole issue is I prefer all my lights on one master on/off switch, and battery op stuff can be dangerous if you have to fish your hand between a dozen robarths to get to the switch.

I'm sure there is a logical way to use them, and make the switch accessible. I'm just old and stuck in my ways.

Snip and daisy chain those bad boys.

AC would be way easier to do so and route to a central source. DC would require a converter that can handle the extra load. But isn't convienence worth the extra effort?

I explored many option like this. Even making my own LED chains. After much research and consultations with my Elec Eng buddy, I decided I was slightly out of my league.
But you know what they say,
If at first you don't succeed ... Ikea!

You never can be too safe when it comes to electricity. I do all my own stunts and elec work. I'd jump right in an as long as it didn't get too hot you should be fine. It's a matter of volts and watts and such, but that's neither her nor there. What's important is that I need an ikea closer than Houston!

HOUSTON?! Wow. Crazy. I think the closest for me is 2.5 hours?

Ouch! especially for Mr. and Mrs. Mid-Century Mod.

I'm coming to you next time I need electrical help.

Detolfs are niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

Yeah it's like a 4 hour haul and Houston traffic is bad.

Hit me up, elec, plumbing, painting, general handy man work. I'm either the last boy scout or a renaissance man. The tools in my pocket will probably answer that question.

Detolfs eh? Are those those sweet glass shelves that look completely awesome?

Indeed!

BTW, I'm glad you guys are around today. It's been so slow and boring around here the last few days.

It's always slow on the weekends here. I'm at a store staring at a server I'm supposed to replace. I'm just not feeling it.

So anybody take a gander at the tfpc? I'm overflowing with ideas, but I'm on the road this week. Probably going hit it hard this weekend.

This should be a fun one.

It will be fun!!

Awwwwww yissssssssssssssssss!!!

A new member has arrived, and he is glorious!!


Bumblebee regaling some of his brethren with tales of babyproofing (as Cobotron so eloquently put it )


After getting Bumblebee and deciding on the smiling face, I placed the both G1 and G2 logos on the flip panel (one on each side) so I can chose

He will most likely be rocking the G1 logo most, unless I get out OG G2 Bumblebee for pictures.


I really need that Exosuit Spike though. His Dr. Wu head is sitting there useless!!
