How much would you charge for 1 with 10 outlets? Just the acrylic]]> Sat, 16 Apr 2005 13:06:53 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6204&PID=61638&title=pics-of-diy-electrical-box#61638 <![CDATA[Pic’s of DIY electrical box : Cash $130.

Cash $130. Time 2 Hrs. I think they are too much money to make worth my time.Who would pay $200 for one of these?]]> Sat, 16 Apr 2005 12:38:43 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6204&PID=61637&title=pics-of-diy-electrical-box#61637 <![CDATA[Pic’s of DIY electrical box : Very nice setup, How much do you...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6204&PID=61628&title=pics-of-diy-electrical-box#61628 Author: tileman

Very nice setup, How much do you think total cost is? Time & materials. You should produce them and put them on Ebay.]]> Sat, 16 Apr 2005 09:05:42 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6204&PID=61628&title=pics-of-diy-electrical-box#61628 <![CDATA[Pic’s of DIY electrical box : I&#039;ve put a multimeter on...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6204&PID=61626&title=pics-of-diy-electrical-box#61626 Author: lilbeag

I've put a multimeter on the breaker with everything on and was only pulling 5.5 amps.

Looks sweet, do check you're breaker though. And I'd replace the first outlet in each series with a GFCI receptacle, they cost a few bucks more but provide extra security, and then if one device faults it will only take out the outlets on the series with it. Just be sure to keep the GFCI's below the amperage of the cicuit they're on. Makes it easier to track what went out as well.

Looks lots better than when I first saw it.  Have you actually installed it?  If so how is it working for you?]]> Fri, 15 Apr 2005 19:59:16 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6204&PID=61606&title=pics-of-diy-electrical-box#61606 <![CDATA[Pic’s of DIY electrical box : That does look sweet.

That does look sweet. But you have the potential of seriously overloading your circuit. I'd suggest you calculate the TOTAL current you expect to run, and keep it below you breaker limit]]> Fri, 15 Apr 2005 15:56:41 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6204&PID=61574&title=pics-of-diy-electrical-box#61574 <![CDATA[Pic’s of DIY electrical box : CNC mill.

How did you cut the faceplate?  I could easily build the rest, butcutting those holes would be difficult.  How much were the timers?
