    Sharper image evsi-htr70 space heater fixed!

    Heres something cool. I check the local business dumpsters from time to time and i come across this gem. Customer returned, still in the box.

    Its a sharper image ceramic tower fan/heater.

    I take her home, and it works but after about a minuite it shuts down. It has two 12vdc fans inside and only one works. I assume its overheating due to one fan not working and protecting itself.

    Without power the dead fan spins fine but with power applied it almost locks up. Then i noticed it.... the blade is up too high. These fan motors are brushless, theres a round permanent magnet attached to a cup on the fan blade. For whatever reason this one came from the factory not pressed in all the way. I simply removed the fan and cup assy, looked it over, then pressed it together until it clicked firmly together. Reinstalled it, i now have a $80 heater for free!

    Vaillant 242 Gas Water heater. Shortcut in board anc compatibility with model 282
    by edugimeno
    Hi!!
    Yesterday I was installing a new Wifi thermostat for my domestic gas water heater model Vaillant 242/2-3, and accidentlly one wire from mains touched one wire from the thermostat output contacts. This shut off the heater so I finished installing the thermostat and then went out to check the heater

    I found one fuse blown (T2 250V). Replaced it with another equivalent fuse and it blew right away. I measured L-N in mains input and I sometimes got 4K but sometimes, not sure why, I got 100 Ohm...
    At a certain point, moving stuff around, I put all wires back in place and...
