It appears I bought an f'ed up leg. Fortunately when the cardboard handle broke on the other end of the carton, my leg broke the generators fall. The generator runs just fine. The leg on the other hand....
The things people buy these days.

Sounds like 2LZ bought stock in Motrin, Ibuprofin, and Tylenol....

Hope you get back to 100% with all possible speed!

I think it probably ran longer. Much longer.

Are you still within the return period? Maybe you could get a new one.

Looks painful, hope you heal up quickly!

Bloody hell that's gotta smart! I got an almost identical one once when a huge thick glass tabletop fell on my leg in pretty much that exact spot. Had what looked like half a hardboiled egg under the skin and the bleeding under the skin started spreading down so that in a couple days my entire foot was covered in purple splotches.

lucky, my truck is going through them yearly lol. Stupid auto start stop and cold temp's kill them. Granted I've never had one actually fail, ford just thinks they failed. What ever, if they are going to keep giving me free batteries ill take them.

My Ram takes a 1000 cranking amp battery with 800 cold cranking amps. I think the only reason it failed was because i left my truck parked for a couple of weeks while using my bike to commute back and forth from work. We had a couple of cold fronts come through and i think that did it in. As long as i ran it every day it would start. any longer i would have to break out my jump start pack.

A Grundfos circulation pump for the big garage heating system. $100. The current pump is almost 13 years old, works, but occasionally lets out a squeal like a bearing is going. Swap pumps, rebuild the old one, keep it as a back up.

...which then blew up after about twenty minutes of use with a spray of sparks on my face from the inside! FFS this project isn`t letting me off easy!
