Following up on my original post, I checked all my leads one by one and I had two crossed. When I soldered the quick disconnects I transposed pin 1-3. Strange thing is I did this on both leads, same mistake twice or copied one off the other. I corrected the mistake and no more UUUU or LLLL...

Good to know about the Auber switch. Looks like something well worth the price. Thanks for the recommendation

Check my work here but I think I did as you suggested.

I have a gas system controlled by a Mypin TA4 with two Auber PT100 RTD probes. I have a DPDT toggle to switch between them - one direction for HLT and one for HERMS. Since inception I have struggled with accurate temp measurements. I can adjust the PID correction factor to match an external...

So far so good, bubbling away. I appreciate the reassurance and advice of the group.

It was a full 1# pouch of priming sugar. Same size pouch as the lactose they sell and I grabbed the wrong one. Not even sure what made me look at the label as I was tossing it. Would have wondered later where my priming sugar went. Thanks for the reassurance.

Any updates to this post? I have a very similar problem and I'd like to see how yours turned out.

Dear Wal-Mart manager, Water softener salt bags may not be glamorous enough for the front end of the store and I do appreciate the exercise you give my by locating them the maximum distance from the checkout. However, since the average shopper in your stores has about as much self awareness...

Dear designer of basketball scoreboards, I'm sure a lot of thought went into your choice of materials but what made you think the 200 decibal klaxon buzzer was the desired sound for substitutions and the end of periods? I don't get it, brutal as boxing is all it takes it a delicate ring of a...
