Think my 30A drier plug socket is falling.. got it on a 30A 2P breaker and 8ga wire feeding it.
It's causing the breaker to get warm and trip..
Also 145° exhaust temp out the drier is kinda neat.
Get it swapped to a 10-50R style plug/socket and be ready for laundry next weekend

Double check current draw on that tripping breaker. Make sure it's not at or above 24 amps or it will heat up and eventually trip. 80% rule

And of you want a good outlet that won't overheat, use one designed for an EV. They have a little car icon printed on them. They are more expensive but won't melt on you

Na, it's just a primary filter for the ductwork. The more it collects, the better it filters 🤣

I'd expect that in one of our laundry rooms. But damn, I'd never let it build to that level. We get about a five gallon bucket worth of lint every day from our commercial dryers. But we keep it from floating up to the return ducts

Isn't that how the K&N filters work? Better when they have some dirt on them???

Might be able to go see these beast as it comes through Ohio
I didn’t get an up close and personal, but I watched it cruise down the tracks by my work a few years ago. Still pretty cool to see.

Off my feet for a bit. This surgery was a last resort of sorts to relieve the pain from planter factious.

This leg was crushed in an accident in 2022, ankle never really got happy again.

High hopes this provides some relief
