    Just spent 3 days learning all there is to know about ceiling fans. I was shocked how little most people know about proper selection, installation, and operation. I found that on the low setting a fan consumes close to 100 watts. The benefits far offset the added cost of electricity. The...

    Belt life question?

    In the past I have changed my belts seasonally. This is the first time I let a belt stay on a sled for any length of time. The belt has been on my indy 500 for the last 5 years and I have put about 1,000 miles on the sled in that time. I would assume the rubber deteriorates regardless if the...
