I'm on a well with about 40-50psi and didn't make it through one filter before it sprung a leak out the small, clear window. I bought a set of 3 filters thinking it was only a stopped up filter. WRONG!! it leaked with the new filter. I guess I'll drink my well water. The water taste is great but I hope the extra limb I'm gonna grow will come in handy:) It’s now May 2011 and PUR still has the same problem.

But i am somewhat lost in your explanation. I took off the Atmega Chip from the Arduino Uno board. Then connected the pins Reset > GRN Tx > Tx Rx > Rx 5v > Vcc GND > GND BLK is not connected to anything. The Pro Mini seems to power up and resets itself. When i try to upload the arduino code the program states that it is uploading the code but never finishes, unless i force shut the arduino program. Should i change the Tools > Board > configuration in arduino program? Thnx Hello, i am finding this really useful as i am trying to program Arduino Pro Mini 5v through my Arduino Uno board. But i am somewhat lost in your explanation. I took off the Atmega Chip from the Arduino Uno board. Then connected the pins

Reset > GRN
Tx > Tx
Rx > Rx
5v > Vcc
GND > GND
BLK is not connected to anything.

The Pro Mini seems to power up and resets itself. When i try to upload the arduino code the program states that it is uploading the code but never finishes, unless i force shut the arduino program.

Should i change the Tools > Board > configuration in arduino program?
Thnx

Takes 10 seconds When signing up for the new account it asks for my email and I just type random letters. ex. jsjkfhfhjd@kdhshd.com For the password I also type in random letters ex. sjdjdjdhfhfhd (the best part is you dont have to type it in a second time like most password fields require). You do not have to actually log into the email to verify your account or anything- so a randomly typed email address will work. for birth year I type in a random year ex. 1988 Select "male" or "female" check the I agree checkbox and hit submit. Then I click the "upgrade" box on the top menu and then click the "get free 24 hour trial". Create my stations and I am all set. No ads! when 24 hours is up, delete the .sol files in the C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\4HBWHT4Z\pandora.com folder *replace the word USER with the windows user account name. The entire thing takes about 20 seconds, to make it easier I created a shortcut to the address I mentioned above, and put that on my desktop. So I click the shortcut and it opens the folder, I delete the three files and log on and make my new account. HOW TO MAKE THIS PROCESS EASIER IF YOU DO THIS EVERY DAY: The only thing that sucks is every time you delete the .sol files and make a new account you lose your fav stations so I plan on eventually making a script to automatically enter my favorite stations (can easily be done with a program called AUTO IT).

Openned the brick and saw the burn marks. I checked the fuse with my ohm meter and it was an open circuit. So I'm fairly certain that the fuse did its job. What I don't know is what kind of fuse it is. What should I be asking for? I know what amp and volt it is but not what kind of fuse it is. Your help is greatly appreciated.
