WastedTalent Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 I'm pretty sure it's witchcraft.that or gravity feeds it to my house from a water tower,which is fed by a pump which is fed by electicity which may be fed by a hydro electric plant, which can only be explained by witchcraft. edit, grammar I second witchcraft. Turn the handle and water comes out? Can only be explained by 1 of 2 things... Witchcraft or surprise buttsecks with Adam. I'mma go with the first one although the 2nd one is a possibility.

Purplehaze Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 OK, we're on the right track . . . I think sometimes the difficulties of comprehending what your electrical system "should be" is a direct result that no two companies or two individuals arrive at the same conclusion to that question. So, that leaves room for interpretation. On the other hand, most of you arrived at a similar conclusion to my question above. Why? When it comes to delivering water to your faucet, the pump, water tower, plumbing, and valve all have specific roles to play and none of those roles are disputed - Hey, if I were to install a second water tower can I get more water to flow out of the faucet? . . . OR . . . if we were to increase the size of the pump, can we get more water from the faucet? The very same thing can be said for the alternator, battery, and cable. Hmmm . . . My dad, who was an electrician for 30+ years, also used "water" to try to explain the concept of electric to me when I was growing up. I found it very helpful, and still do! BTW I've been reading thru your book, (the first one) and I love it!!! It is a wonderful guide for anyone planning to do anything electrical to an auto. Hands down the best auto electrical book out there, bar none. Fantastic work! I'll be ordering the second one here soon!

snafu Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Thank you for the compliments. That book (SA160) has sold around 20,000 copies so far.

AMI CUSTOMS Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I HATE how people compare electrical to water, it is not!!! It is electrical it isn't like something else, you ever been shocked by water? Maybe if it is cold as hell it gives you a different kind of shock. But my point is I wish people would stop trying to compare electricity to the one thing it hates, water!!!!

The only reason people compare it to water is to try to explain it to someone who doesn't understand. When my dad was using it as a comparison, I was 10 years old. Now what other ways are you supposed to explain something that is so different than everything else? Some people find it very helpful, I don't really understand why you would HATE that so much.

Let's not forget, that one pipe can only handle so much. The more 'power' you add, the more pipe you need to maintain the flow or you are killing the 'power' to the faucet via the weakest link. One major difference though. With water, if you want more pressure, you go smaller pipe before the faucet. lol Quote Blown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namosh Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 "With water, if you want more pressure, you go smaller pipe before the faucet." Decreasing pipe size does not increase pressure. It increases velocity.. The only way to increase water pressure is with elevation or a pump. Quote My Ram Quad Cab Blow-through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
