looks very inviting right till an alligator snatches you right off the bank.
I had to tell my mother not to hold tightly to the leash if she insisted on walking her dog next to Lake Seminole.:rolleyes::D
Seriously. Talk about, "Scoobie Snacks"!
You can see at least 20 pairs of eyes looking back at you if you shine a flashlight across that lake at night.:eek:

We don't lose many people around here, but dogs and cats get the Darwin Award fairly often.:(

Rain the last 4 out of 5 days. We've moving into the, "free sauna" season.:D
Heat index below 100F, humidity 60% to 80%
No more static electricity until winter.:)

Last few days were nice then rain yesterday with a cold front. Today is cool but sunny and dry.

When I worked at Action Target, our Circuit Boards had to be double dipped if we shipped to Air Force bases and the air was dry, the Air Craft induced charge somehow, at least that was what I was told. Everything I've found counters that idea.

Wow ! It sure is raining these days.
Had high winds. Boats toppling, no sea traveling, waves flooding and trees popping.
And me, I am stuck in an island I came for a vacation. Can't get back to capital due to rough seas.
Still, I like it when it rains. I like it more when it pours.

Caught a nice evening and day. Tuesdays are Bike Nights at the local Harley Davidson dealership. They have a Gears and Cheers bar and restaurant. Great weather and great band made for a nice evening and dinner outside. SE Harley Davidson, Cleveland, Ohio.

I smell a rat.
You should be able to get a, "dry" compressor and add the correct amount of mineral oil lubricant.
Or a, "dry" condensor ditto ditto blah blah blah.
There ain't no such a thing as an R-410A piston.
I think your right @#12

But, I've never designed a system before, so the discharge, intake volume of the compressor vs the gas ratio compression, expantion seems a little suspicious. It's all about design of the system and not compressor types I would think. Either you can compress the gas to super heat or not with a piston, pretty straight forward. I never had to deal with R-410A Refrigerant. R-12 or R-22 only.

I fixed an already designed system not the other way round.

I went into the Internet about 5 clicks deep and found the US.A. has moved to R410A.
I should be able to do this in less than 3 days of math and searching, but I guess there is a time to bend over and change to the latest version that has been declared in order to force new purchases instead of repairs.

Heat index going below 80F at 7 pm.
Sunset is at 8:30
Plenty of time to mow the lawn between, "survivable temperature" and, "too dark to see":).
The Florida Summer Sauna and Exercise class is having its annual opening.;)

ps, it worked. Good exercise and no muscle spasms. I'm on the mend!:)

Does it follow the same pressure temperature chart? My 92 Lesabre needs to be re-charged.

R410-A is very different from R-22, and cars have never used either of those. Right now, the popular car refrigerant is 134A. Read the label, look it up, but never mix refrigerants.
