Edmund Scientific has an electronic gadget for hiking. Amongst the many
functions it has is a mosquito repeller. Do these things really work. How
about Ridex?

Hi All,
Thanks for all of your suggestions.
I do plan to also contact Wal-Mart, to inform them of this issue with
Hamilton Beach!
I had to go out and purchase another microwave last night; I bought an
Emerson, and it has a touch screen, but they all do.
I didn't see one that was even remotely
Hi Claudia,
There are so many ways to
deal with a touch screen on the microwave. Loc dots are nice and some
folks put them on in the form of the pattern of five on dice. You ten

a less cluttered screen that way. Rita

Before you give up on the Hamilton Beach, check to make sure the problem isn't
a blown fuse in the microwave itself. To access the fuse you will probably
have to remove the side of the microwave where the electric cord enters.
Follow the electric cord and you should find the fuse. Make sure
HI Tom,
I finally got in touch with the Honeywell thermostat support group. What a
waste of time. After about 20 minutes trying to get him to understand what
and why I wanted the two controls he placed me on hold for another 10
minutes. He finally told me to contact a heating contractor because

am I mistaken or did not Claudia say the warranty had expired? I
know of another Hamilton talking microwave which has been in service
for maybe 3 years with no problems. Lee

Donnie the voice activated thermostats can be used with any heating
system. The problem you come up with is they usually all are low voltage(24
volt or lower), electric heat usually uses a line break voltage (240 volt)

All that is needed to use them together is a relay
I had a discussion this mourning about power usage of items in stand-by

appliances when in the off mode. Regardless of what it could be; microwave

Did you ask the store where you bought it if they would get the

I believe the VIP has a high voltage model, certainly they do have one to
operate heat pumps.
You would need quite a few, one for each electric heater.

You know this has me thinking. My wife sure wont' go for unplugging
the microwave, but then getting at the plug is a problem considering
it's an over the range model. However, I gather the washer and dryer

That was 1985-1988, before I bought where I am now.

I totally support this topic. I just had someone look at our washer

Some months ago there was a discussion about how well a blind person can use
the Wood Sharp to sharpen chissles and plane blade. I can't remember the
conclusion. Would someone please refresh my memory or maybe add more to the

No,
The warranty has not expired, but the company is giving us a difficult time
refunding money because it was bought online and we don't have an actual
receipt for the product!
I bought an Emerson, in answer to whoever asked, because I needed something

I have one and I love it. It works very easily for sharpening chisels with a
precise angle setting guide. You slide the chisel flat side down up a sort of
shoot and the bevel edge comes in contact with the spinning underside of the
disk. It will set 20, 25, 30 and 35 degree angles. You can
