I know this is on a small scale but I've had a cooler/heater that runs on 12V for years. I thought it was a Koolatron but the name says Coolmaster CH-12. Can't find any info but the Koolatron site has newer models that draw 3-4.5 Amps. 12V. Only moving part in mine is a small fan. I used it in my ca...

You can't stop it, only show it down with insulation so here is what i suggest, since thats the case why not figure out some way to put it to work, I know although expensive there are pelter divices that use that, and that could generate electricity, I had one came in an igloo picnic cooler, but i a...

My babbling in the previous post gets me to thinking about a heat pump inside the house. Generally, a heat pump works by removing the heat from the outside air and bringing it inside the home. OK, instead of removing a little heat from already cold outside air, why not simply remove the cold from th...

I keep scratching my head, looking for a more efficient way to heat. I keep referring to that simple formula -- heat seeks cold. Basically that means that during the winter, the cold weather has no desire to come in your warm home. Instead, the heat in your home has a great desire to get out into th...

I really love it too. It helped me so much to be able to see the end results. I love being able to take pictures of my own rooms then redo them in the software program. You cant beat it for 20 bucks

Hi Gram, Thank you so much! This software was given as a gift to me a few years ago. That was before we painted our home! I have to agree, it's very cool! We ended up choosing the best color for us.... and all of our neighbors! We had raves from neighbors for many months after we painted our home. T...

Hi guys. Just wanted to let you all know that I purchased the Better Homes & Gardens Picture Painter software and it is amazing! We've been trying to decide what color of siding to put on in the Spring, and this has helped us really envision what it will look like. You can use your own pictures ...

Wonder cleaner. Try a search on the net for it. They have several different types and I believe the yellow cleaner is the de greaser. Use it with a white scotch pad and some paper towels. Also, you can get grease lightning at Walmart and it is are great degreaser too...just wear gloves. You might tr...

We made sure when we painted our kids room that it was at least semigloss. It's a lilac color so any colorloss I would notice. My 3 year old took a crayon black red and orange and scribbled on everything. I used the magic eraser. It took all the crayon off. I keep a few of the magic erasers around a...

Yep, budding artists require primer and then a scrub-able paint on top of the vinyl! Nothing gets rid of a red pigment in anything, other than bleach.. or primer and paint! Someone mentioned WD-40. I just have to share this new found use. It can clean and shine stainless steel, like nothing else!!! ...

Yes, you can see it very clearly...unfortunately bleach products can not be used safely on all surfaces. Just a caution on using these on your appliances as well,if you have an electric range and you get bleach on the contacts it can corrode them and cause your burners to not work. If you have a sto...

Yep, tried the magic erasers. I use them a LOT for my appliances however, they bleached my wall. Can you see the nice white square on my formerly nice beige wall? LOL

Have you tried the Mr Clean magic eraser? I LOVE those things!

Thanks. I DID try goo gone. It worked (except on the red/orange/pink...yep, we've got rainbows) but I would need a vat of the stuff to clean ALLLLLL of the um "decorated" walls. I'll give the other things a shot. Can't hurt, right? Worst case, we have to paint...paint with something that c...
