Check out this guys business site: http://www.amorelectric.com/flash_site/index.html

Look at this is this page. At the top he actually says: "Save Money, you can solve the problem yourself before calling an electrician"

Problem with that is he link dozens of message boards includingMike Holt's, ECN, and us here.No wonder we getso many DIY questions ignoring the site rules. This guy says it is perfectly fine.

I Wish I Had The Talent To Capitalize Every Word I Type, That Would Make Me A Better Electrician For Sure, I Also Wish I Could Forget How To Use Proper Punctuation And End All My Sentences With Commas Instead Of A Period Like They Still Teach Kids In Schools These Days:

I Wonder Where You Get 'High Tech Service Call" Traning?, As I Only Have Low Tech Service,

I Think I'll Call This Guy Up And Ask How Much He Will Charge Me To Install Some Motion, I'll Also Ask What The Difference Is Between House Rewire, House Rewires And House Rewiring Is:

More power to the guy. His links don't work properly anyhow. It does look like he's put some thought and effort into his site, so give him a pat on the back for that, at least.

Something tells me English may not be his first language. That may explain some of the wording in his site.

manchestersparky · 05-16-2009, 06:42 PM

I'll agree with Jim on this one. As I read the wording ,I automatically was reading it with a certain accent, that fit perfectly with the wording.
I would put money on the fact that his family roots are in country that has alot of sand and camels. Not too mention cheap labor.
INDIA
I have dealt with a lot of engineers from that country

When I read his "bio" all I could think was oh great, another EE who got caught up in an economic downturn so he figured how hard could electrical work be. Being an EE he already knows everything there is to know, right?

The guy does have a pretty nice site overall. The flash is impressive.

Yep. It's quite a factory, too. You should take the tour some day.

Possibly, but the marble contraption in that video doesn't include a means by which to make toast or some such

Hey 480, I figured out the problem with your factory. Step 47 when the blue ball goes thru the TV screen and gets a NO, it then punches out and recycles the same ball again for another NO, creating a cyclic redundancy loop.

That was easy, and I'm not even an EE.

I firmly believe that every engineer needs to spend 2 years fixing the things they design. Only then will we get intelligent design.
