Wow!!! You are a genius!! I had no idea how to figure out how much power something uses. The DVR box says 12v 2.5A whatever any of that means or should I look at what the command center box thingy says? I'm interested in hearing what you find out! oh and the non DVR box says 12v 1.67A Command tower thingy with lights says 12v 2.9A Oh there I was running around looking at mine and you already wrote it out I'm math challenged as well! I have Carroll EMC and have no idea how much I pay per KWH.....I did take the total KWH and the bill total (before tax) and divi

Ohhh gotcha, we are new to U-verse so we only know the newest set up. e only have 3 boxes plus the grand master poohbah supreme hootenanny lighty up thing. I think only the one that was the actual DVR was the one that ate power like a tick sucking on a scalp. I'd turn my DVR off.....if I could figure out how

The other boxes don't have DVRs, just the main one but they all can record off that one main one...ours is in the living room. Anywho then there is the big daddy box thingy with all the lights on it. That is like the grand master supreme box. No, I still don't know how to turn the DVR off but I did find out my kids have recorded about a bajillion shows on there

No, it was my fault. I set myself up for that haha. What I mean is we have that AT&T thing....uhh....U-verse....there is a main box thingy with lights on it and then the DVR box. Do I unplug the main thing or just the DVR thing? I haven't even looked behind the TV to see what is plugged into where.

I don't even know where it plugs into

Caught that Clark Howard thing where he mentioned DVR's use more power than most other things. Anyone know if that is true? I wouldn't even know how to turn my DVR off My poor electric bill went up $40 and the first thing I thought of was the DVR but the husband said it was probably due to the heat and the cycle was 2 extra days compared to the previous one.

It does!! Thanks so much for sharing that!!

I took a picture of the truck at Kroger in case something went wrong with my car though I suppose if something would go wrong, it would have already because I've used 1/2 the tank I got there a few days ago. Someone on a message board that my husband is on also complained about Kroger gas but something with the pumps not measuring right maybe?

Gas pumps were all down at Kroger on 278 today and there was a Crompco Corp. truck out there with guys working on whatever. Truck says Underground Tank, Line & Vapor Recovery Testing Anyone know what that might be/mean? I'm afraid to get my gas there now with all these stories

:good:

I'm sad. I was looking forward to some rain.

Well I feel stupid that I can't find the info I've gathered that the brand is Trek and the model # EN 14764 I took a picture but it is so dark down there. I'll have to take it outside tomorrow and snap a pic.... Oh and we still have the owners manual complete with a cd haha

ok I'll run down there now and look & take a pic....

Husband said he'd sell his for $200....I can take pics in the morning

I have to admit, I'm curious also. Our attic is around 1,300 sq ft. What is the thing with the light bulbs? We have some fluorescent ones in the kitchen and some traditional tiny ones for the chandelier. I think the rest are some bulbs I got at the store where it said they lasted for 5 or 10 years?

That is so awesome you could decipher my horrible attempt at directions haha

My husband bought a nice one from some bike shop...the one near Kroger on the way to Acworth. How bad is that, I can't recall the street or what that part of town is called He rode it once and it has sat ever since :lol If you (or anyone) is interested I can ask him if he wants to sell it. I think he paid $350 for it but will most likely take much less.

Wonder why? Though I can't say I'm surprised. A lot have places have left due to the increase in what they charge for rent.

Thanks for sharing! I adore that store but hate having to go all the way out to D'ville, Austell or Kennesaw. YUCK! What email address do we send the email to?

What would something like that cost? Like for a birthday party?

:lol: and the sad thing is that I'd rather watch that than watch the president or any political or news program since it seems like things won't ever turn around and get better. Might as well watch some reliable idiots than waste time on an unreliable government.

From what I understand the child that went to Paulding Wellstar and then later life flighted didn't get life flighted right away because he was not stable enough which tells me he was probably in worse condition than the other kids. Once you are in the air there isn't as much they can do for you I believe. I feel bad for the driver of the truck also. I would have a hard time dealing with the fact that a child died even if I wasn't at fault for the accident. I hope the driver of the truck is able to find peace with everything as well as the woman driving the car and her family. What a

You guys are so right! It doesn't take much to get into someones email account and from there you can get into their other accounts. I know first hand because my husbands ex did that to me That is exactly why I lie on the secret questions now.
