A quick click past the login screen and it loaded pretty quickly even
w/ my slow dialup...
The blinky tool bar is a poor choice, will grant that.
The tips section looks to have some useful ones along w/ a lot of old
stuff most anybody w/ any experience will know. Looks like if it
grows much more unless the maintainer will organize tips in some
hierarchy it will become very difficult to find anything specific
other than resorting to the search engine, though...
The calculators page is pretty weak for a site dedicated to pro's,
though.
The "theory" section would be best trashed entirely -- it's of no use
to any practical electrician and the attempt to make explain the
physics is so brief as to be overly simplistic at best and downright
wrong at worst.
But, worth a bookmark for the DIY'er running into problem -- might
just find a tip that is of some benefit...
