I didn’t put in the part where I tried to build a perpetual motion machine in my parent’s basement when I was 8 years old using a pair of big electric motors. This was supposed to make extra electricity so my parents wouldn’t have to pay their electric bill. It just blew out a bunch of fuses in the circuit panel and dad was not happy. Really!

That is precious - just showed where your heart was when you were eight years old :-)

I've had your book on RV electricity for several years. That book, plus your articles in the RV Newsletter, have been incredibly informative. Thank you for taking time to educate all of us and keep us safe!

Mike, that is an incredibly impressive background. Needless to say how much you love your work and how qualified you are. You have helped so many people by sharing your knowledge. Electrical concepts don’t come easy for me; if I can learn 10% of what you know I will be fulfilled!

Very impressive qualifications and accomplishments. I can see the teaching background due to the way you explain electrical systems so most anyone can understand them. Keep up the good work!

Mike, my instinct told me your advice was always sound and appropriate. My brother was an electrical engineer,  worked in Huntsville at the space center, and built a robot (for himself) back in the 80s that is in Germany somewhere LOL  he was such an inventor and creative person, but didn’t have your personal skills and dealing with people lol. He was pretty eccentric, kind a like me lol anyway, he passed from Parkinson’s in 2017 and I miss him so much Needless to say you remind me of him. (Except for the music - although he did play the flute because mom made him!!

Mike,

Impressive to say the least. I'm thankful we have you as a recourse here and I'm sure the rest of us rv'ers are too.

Thanks, Drew
