I don’t know if the threads are standard, but other manufacturers might offer a similar box cover with a different design. A couple years ago I went with lights from RAB lighting, decent quality, offered a hood for narrowing the light beam. The third direction of adjustment that you’re looking...

Or extend the lights with short threaded couplings https://www.duncanlumber.com/shop/electrical/conduit-and-fittings/conduit-fittings/conduit-coupling/138045-sigma-electric-proconnex-12-in-rigid-imc-threaded-coupling?SKU=544163

The plastic version of that plate looks like it has a slightly different design, from the picture https://www.lowes.com/pd/Sigma-Electric-Round-Plastic-Weatherproof-Electrical-Box-Cover/1000971698

You can become a certified installer online. It’s been a few years since then, but IIRC I told my ‘distributor’ that I wanted it, and they told Russound. Russound then sent me an email to register. I took the course, and gained access to the software. Did a lot of reading, and eventually...

Be sure to run the LV cables you need outside the conduit, before the foam. Save the conduit for future cables. Dealing with line voltage boxes and conduit for LV cables is challenging. If cutting the spray foam is easy, I’d probably go that route. With LV rings, the conduit just needs to be...

Each time you paint a room, move the control from the ganged switch location to a spot higher up, at thermostat height (~60").   It's what I did when I installed my Nuvo 2-gang controls, moved from in-wall volume controls at switch height.   Now I'm repainting, and removing the 2-gang...

RA2 was incompatible with the original Radio RA. RA3 is backwards compatible - only need a new master controller; RA2 devices (most) can still be controlled with RA3. That's huge.   AVS RA3 discussion

RDL Electronics may have something for you.

Could also be water in the conduit. Buried conduit usually, eventually, collects water. Cable rated for direct burial?

Announced a couple weeks ago, the details of the mixed wired and wireless platform called Alarm Engine and first model E27 will be available at ISC West 7/19-21.   https://www.securityinfowatch.com/alarms-monitoring/product/21223726/elk-products-inc-alarm-engine-from-elk-products   David Steele...

I'm unsure if you should use Romex in a raceway, in a damp location (would that be considered damp?).  Since there is no inspector, do you need to follow NEC guidelines? Is there a nearby AHJ to consult?

I also battled corrosion in St. Croix. I had t re-terminate the POTS connections a few times, over 10-15 years, seaside condo.

Maybe switch up the wiring within the RJ45 connection? One or more of the conductors may be bad. Not all conductors, though.

Yes! That is what we need! You are absolutely correct. Rules governing the rights of private citizens of the US.   Most people will agree to the use of their data, for free/cheap tools. Some will not.   Again, I don't think it will happen. Too much $$$ for corporations, who own the government.

I would like the US to have an amendment giving the right to privacy, with very specific guidelines.   I don't believe in any 'natural' rights. It's just a very good idea, in our framework of liberties.   Personal opinions, but I'm not alone. If enough US citizens feel the same way, it will...
