  • Connecting this to two plugs on the same circuit won’t short anything unless one of the outlets is wired incorrectly.

    They’re used to backfeed power to your house from a generator during power outages. Technically not legal to use, but most people aren’t going to pay $1k for a proper transfer switch. They come with the caveat of ‘not to be operated by fuckwits’ since you can kill a linesman if you don’t flip your main breaker before using them.






  • This is definitely a temporary install to pass a vehicle inspection. Tires aren’t allowed to extend past the fenders, so the kiddie pool fenders get them past that rule.

    Lifted trucks here with super wide tire will either have a second set of stock tires/rims that they will install before they go and get a safety check, or they attach cheapo “fenders” that get pulled off immediately after the check.

    I haven’t ever seen kiddie pool fenders before, I usually see plastic landscape edging instead.
