Will a treadmill with an electrical requirement of 120 VAC 50-60hz use up a significant amount of electricity more then a machines with the same requirements but without a motor? Or will it use up the same amount of elec. then say a game console.

I want to know if using 2-4 times/week will jack up the electric bill.

I'm completely new to all of this HDTV stuff, and after just receiving HD yesterday, I'm not as satisfied as I thought I would be (what do you expect for 'no extra cost', right?).

I was wondering if there is a way to watch DVDs in HD. Like I said, I'm completely new to all of this and I have no clue. Does it have to do with the DVD player you are using?

I am installing an intercom/music system in my home and I need to know what's the best way to power the two transformers in it. I will be installing the master station by a light switch but the light switch is on the other side of the stud (not new construction). Any pointers as to where I can draw the power from and how to go about it? Thank you for your help.

From the month of June to Septmeber the temperatures in north India are around 40 - 45 degrees centigrade and the humidity levels are about 70 - 85%. Would dehumidifiers be effective in these conditions to ease the humidity levels. Air conditioners are useful, but sometimes all one wants to ease the discomfort is to lower the humidity levels. Air conditioning one or two rooms in the house doesn't really help and it also increases the risk of exposure each time you step outside. If dehumidifiers are suitable in such hot and humid conditions - what make and size would be suitable for a room size 20 feet by 15 feet?

My mp3 player, like most nowadays does not have an a/c charger cable. So, I was reading a magazine and it talked of a kit you could buy online that you could build your own charger. I did not want to get the kit, so i bought the parts (they were listed) I am still not quite sure how to do this, can you help me??

I've been told that Digital Rights Management will prevent me from recording programmes from my TV on to a DVD recorder! Is this right? If so, what can I replace my broken VCR with to do the same job?

Hi There,

This happened twice already, and I won't be surprised if it happens again... my AAA sized rechargeable battery (from Energizer, my favourite brand) overheats while just lying there in my pocket. The first occurrence was a few weeks ago when I was walking home. Today was the second, when I was filling-up my lunch plate. It overheated so much inside my pocket that I had to extract it with some folded tissue. Any idea WHY this occurs? What can be done about it?

Thanks.
PS: I notice a crack in the battery casing, near the positive terminal. Would that have anything to do with the overheating?

We would like the M&S DC1 CD Changer...I enjoy do it yourself projects. My home has never had an intercom system in it and I was wondering how difficult this would be for me to do. This system has a master (I would install it in my kitchen), 7 substations, a patio and front door stations. Mind you, I know basic wiring skills, fishing through walls, cutting sheet rock etc. And advice? Thanks.

why would that be - put in a new light - and when I turn it on sometimes.. my smoke detector goes off.. and it is not wired - it is batteries --- I don't see smoke- or anything such as that - and it isn't the batteries going dead!
