[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 99682, member: 126"] Re: The "I Hate GFCIs" thread If a GFCI power strip is too pricey to consider disposable, perhaps DIY a breakout built into a metal junction box sized for two duplex outlets. One GFCI can daisy chain to protect a second standard outlet. "When" the cheap GFCI outlet fails, just replace. Maybe build a few of these at the same time and keep one spare handy to swap out in the heat of battle or confirm that there really is a ground fault when one indicates. While a VOM could probably quickly identify which product is tripping the GFCI. JR [/QUOTE]
