I guess next time you can test what happens if you run the microwave with a metal container. Don't bother to warn us about the outcome.
Shall I also tell you not to eat yellow snow? Let's not throw sarcasm in this thread! You're being unreasonable here.
I'll explain it again... I didn't know there was a piece of towel in the microwave. I wanted to run all the appliances in the RV to test my 30 amp outlet. I wanted to see if the new installed 30 amp would handle all the RV loads w/o tripping the breaker.
If this is something you find not reasonable then this thread is simply not for you. You must be one of those "fool proof" people that have made no mistakes. At least I'm willing to share mine. :C
He pretends he is....
Thank you for sharing. I didn't know that.
