Re: Handy Hints, Gadgets, Products & Gizmos
3 Evenings of reading and I am almost sorry that I got to the end. :) In the cabinet that holds my load center (fuse panel) there is lots of free space. So I drilled a hole and installed a 12 Volt outlet with a cover next to the panel. There is only one outlet behind the TV cabinet and that is a pain to reach. Was easy to connect to the 12V feed in the panel using a 10 amp fuse. Works out much better for charging cell phones, etc. I added another one in the overhead cabinet above the bed (connected it into the overhead light). This one is on a long cord that just lays in the cabinet when not in use. I use this to power a small 200 watt inverter to charge/run an old laptop. We keep a bunch of movies (in ipod/handheld format) on the hard drive for rainy days and for when the kids go to bed earlier than the adults. Cheers, PJinNJ380Views0likes0Comments
