I like the power box idea, but I don't think I want to run a fan with it right now.
Our high today was 46, I would assume the humidity was 100% since it was mist, and raining all day.
Believe it or not, I've got a little fire going in the wood stove right now.  8)

I tried to change the subject to food (grits = food? ::) ;)) but 'Mr I Have a Point' here won't let go of this 'POWERBOX AND FAN!' idea!  Geesh, some people, no FF etiquette at all.  >:(

Oh btw anyone else notice the heat?! :o  Be nice to have some way to move the air around a bit should one find one's self without electricity.  What to do, what to do?? ???  Oh well, there are some really resourceful folks here, I'm sure someone will come up with an idea. :)

;) ;D :D

Cold grits in the summer heat.??? Most old yankee sawyers were farmers and milled in the off season when there was no field work.When its hot like this I don't mill,everything will just turn blue anyways.When the frost is on the pumpkin that's the time for loggy chunken. Frank C.

Good question Corley5....I timed it to day. The fan I was using in the pic is one of the fans a Fire Dept. would use to extract smoke from a structure. A good strong motor that pulls some power.
This fan has 3 settings. I could not run it on high because it would over load. But I did run it on medium for a little over 3 hours before it started beeping and shut itself down.
Now....even though it shut the fan down from lose of power, it still had power left for a Phone, Computer, etc.

Don,I have had to cut when its really hot and humid as long as you have shade you forget about the heat and are no more miserable than sitting thinking about it.A big fan blowing on you is the cats pooper, keeps the dust off,skeeters and blackflies too. Frank C.
