Sorry if this has been asked before, but do the Connections games start out easier on Monday and get harder during the week?

I have a Canon SX50HS that downloads photos to a computer via a USB cable through the camera’s mini USB port. I’d like to use a Bluetooth transmitter of some kind to wirelessly transfer pictures to my phone.

Can I use something like an AirFly transmitter to somehow accomplish this?

I expect those devices can’t handle the bandwidth for images. Any ideas?

Last week I contracted to have a two battery system installed in my home that will recharge from the grid only. We are not allowed to install solar panels on our townhouse. I did an analysis of my usage and determined I can get three days of power in the winter when it’s critical.

I looked at various systems and felt Franklin was best for my needs. Please assure me I chose well.

I am a home owner experienced in typical residential installation and actually had formal training in both residential and commercial wiring. I’ve never pulled cable through conduit. I do not have wire pulling tools.

I have a need to feed (3) 14ga stranded THHN wires through about 15’ of pvc conduit. There are three 90 bends. I’ll be working alone.

Can I push the cables through or is it better to pull? Any suggestions?

I’ll struggle through it and get it done but would appreciate any tips.

Update: there were many good suggestions. It turns out I do have a fish tape. I thought I lost it. Thanks all for your advice. I’ll get this done in a snap.

I personally never knew there was a difference. I knew Corning developed Pyrex brand cookware but didn’t know there were different types of Pyrex until a recent article I read. I thought I’d share with you.

PYREX (Uppercase/Vintage): Manufactured by Corning, this borosilicate glass is superior for oven-to-table use due to its high resistance to thermal shock. It is typically found in thrift stores or older sets.

pyrex (Lowercase/Modern): Produced by World Kitchen LLC (now Corelle Brands) since the late 1970s, this tempered soda-lime glass is designed for durability against breakage, but it is more susceptible to shattering if moved directly from a hot oven to a cold surface.

Identification: Look at the logo—all capital letters ("PYREX") indicates older, typically more heat-resistant glass, while lowercase ("pyrex") denotes newer tempered glass.

Uses: Both are safe for oven and microwave use, but experts advise avoiding rapid temperature changes (e.g., freezer to oven) with the modern lowercase pyrex to prevent shattering
