I’ve just thrown some led fairy lights around our cat tree (you know, just because….) and had assumed that they’d be 12v or lower but glancing at the psu as I plugged it in and it’s a secondary of 31v (3w)...

    Possibly the best tool in my tool kit! Batavia screwdriver.

    Possibly a bad starter on F-150?

    I have a 2004 F-150 STX 2WD with the 4.6L that I inherited from my grandfather this past winter. About 2 months ago, it had a really hard time shifting out of park, so I left it neutral with the keys in it. This naturally drained the battery, so I would just jump it off once a week and let it...
