Thanks, Tom. I appreciate the response, as always.
My son in law came over today to help us get going with the night box. He's ready to get work on it right away but he has four questions.
However, getting the busy young man to sit down at the laptop and read everything is something of a challenge. He's looked at your info & photos, but to get the busy young man to sit down on the laptop and read everything closely is something of a challenge.
His questions are as follows:
For a 2X4 box,
1. What should the interior height be?
2. Given interior space, what wattage for CHE?
3. Just one CHE, right?
4. What base/fixture for the bulb/s do you use?
5. Recommendations for thermostat? He's thinking about some electronic gizmo that will signal your cell phone if something goes wrong.
By the way, apropos of not much, this young man and our daughter will be the ones to "inherit" Cholla when my husband and I get too feeble and/or kick the bucket. Daughter is crazy about Cholla, and her husband and son are fond of her too. It's great having them involved in her care housing and care now, since they're the "beneficiaries" in our will and trust.
