Maybe a weird question. We just had a bathroom redone, which involved installing a ventilation fan where there hadn’t been one previously as well as replacing the light fixture. Two new switches were installed where there hadn’t been one (the light and the new fan). The outlet wasn’t touched as far as I know, and that is all the electrical work that was done.

During the renovation and then recently after, our microwave died while on. Resetting the breaker for the circuit it is on fixed the problem, but this has never happened before, so it seems an odd coincidence. The first time we thought maybe the guy was using some power tools at the same time or something. The second time there was definitely nothing unusual in use.

I believe the microwave is in its own circuit, and before I reset the breaker I did check and the bathroom fixtures were still functioning. So - can it be related? Could the connector done something when installing the bathroom fixtures on another circuit that is messing with the microwave circuit, or is it just coincidence?

They are coming back to finalize the renovation and will check on that issue when here. If they don’t find anything and this continues to happen we may have to call an electrician to look at it, but I wanted to know if there is anything specific I should be looking out for. I did make sure the microwave doesn’t have a loose plug.

So I recently started a new job managing the warehouse of a small business. We have a brick and mortar presence as well as an online store set up through Shopify. The online store currently has 20 bundles for sale (along with plenty of individual items). Those bundles were set up as their own product with variants so inventory does not sync to the items, leading to overselling, a familiar problem. I want to change this by using some sort of bundling app.

Most of the bundles are straightforward with no options except colors and sizes on some of the items. I believe those could all be handled with the free Shopify bundles app.

At least one bundle, though, is a mix and match “choose any two of these seven different products” which I don’t think the free Shopify bundles app can handle. Right now those variants appear to have their own tracked inventory separate from the main products that are being bundled.

There are quite a few free and paid app options out there, I know, some of which sound like they will handle these bundles, but I’m a bit overwhelmed.

Also, some products, including the bundles, are also sold through Powered by People, and it seems that syncing those bundles and linked inventory may not be possible?

Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
