I’m turning the mic over to Phil on this one. He’s much better with details than I am. This cave was beautiful but I have to admit I spent most of the time just trying not to fall down or bump into any o the rocks, this proved harder than I thought. I have no sense balance after having babies and with a growing belly and the tour guide squeezing past us on some of the paths I kept imagining myself plummeting into the dark abyss around us! I made it through though and glad we have some pictures so I can now enjoy what we “saw”. Okay here’s Phil.

We took a tour of the third longest cave in the world.  It was a 1/2 mile loop up and down  700+ stair steps.

Build Your Own Temperature Controller

Sunday, March 10th, 2013

 

This homemade temperature controller is better than some that you can buy.   It has a high amperage rating and is quite customizable.  Plus, by separating the power relay from the sensitive electronics (a generic home thermostat) things are simplified.

It doesn’t require too much electrical work and it operates any 120V device.  Small chest freezers work well and can be used to ferment beer (especially lagers in the 45-55F range).  But one could be used to heat or cool about anything.
