ahah yea maybe

370zproject · 02-20-2010, 01:19 AM

another just blew...

schrute · 02-20-2010, 02:32 AM

I was driving down the road last year and one blew up right as I was driving by it. Very impressive. Scared the ____ out of me.

Sounds like your PS saw a voltage spike or drop. If it powers back on and seems ok you're probably good.

370zproject · 02-20-2010, 07:21 AM

had a total of 3 blow last night somewhere in the area

It will amaze you first time you ever see one blow up in person, freightning but impressive all at the same time. Just try not to breathe the smoke in from those bad boys

370zproject · 02-20-2010, 04:56 PM

^^^ good advice

Hella blue sparks and trees catching on fire.

Can't do much for a transformer fire, other than sit there and watch it blow up.

Brings back memories from Iraq when we saw one blow up. For a minute we thought it was a new form a bomb but then we laughed and remembered how shitty their electric system can be.

My neighbour's transformer blew up in the summer time at night. Sounded like a shotgun...LOL

The Hydro Quebec trucks came, looks at it and left after 30 mins. They didn't even bother fixing it right away...lol.... I just watched, turned on the BBQ and ate some corn.

370zproject · 02-20-2010, 11:16 PM

did sound like gun shots

nogoodname · 02-20-2010, 11:18 PM

BAM!!... it shook my house....LOL
