Jay - the kit looks great and should cover anything but the really big stuff. If you add a tourniquet and pressure dressing to it (part of the STB kit) it will help with that. I would forget the airway kit (very limited use) but add a pocket mask for your protection. Hopefully you won't need...

Jay - that's a nice looking bag - similar to what we use as a "first In" bag. I will be interested in your inventory

Jay:Agreed. when i am away from my department, i function as an overqualified standard first-aider,If your house has an AED, get them to add a Stop the Bleed kit to it as well. (and take the course)To answer your first question - the reason for the post, after many years of traveling...

As a Paramedic who dabbles in stagecraft, here's my $0.02.1. Any medical provider other than a physician is governed by a scope of practice and set of protocols that are established by state and local authorities. Anything we do requires a standing or direct order from a physician. Hence...

Thanks for all of the replies. The expertise available on this listserv is amazing.

Thanks i agree we should get the theater folks involved.. Actually, there is a series of 120W equivalent lamps made by Solais. I installed 32 of them in another church i work with when they first came out about 5 years ago. 31 of them are still working. They come in 15, 25, and 40 degree...

@TimMc It is in the Northwest wall of the building. I am not sure what the outside covering is

I was asked to try to figure out a solution for a lighting problem at a local church. The sanctuary, which was built in 1994, is a 50' diameter circle in a 3/4 round configuration. with a stained glass window at the back of the stage area. The pastor either stands at the pulpit stage right in...

As an IT Guy who works with non-profits, I fully agree with @Aaron Becker. Every non-profit I have worked with are either as he described or had someone give them a grant for computers 5-8 years ago and are in the same boat as you now are. Rather than let everyone roll their own, the greatest...

Something like this Cat5e 110-Type | Inline Splice - Straight through | ShowMeCables.com They work well in the conventional networking environment. Stay away from the RJ45 coupler versions - to manu additional connectionsto get dirty and fail

A number of years ago we were actively replacing the lamps in the 1960's era chandeliers in our church with LED bulbs. We initially left one incandescent lamp in each string, which worked well until it burned out. We put in a call to the dimmer manufacturer support (Lehigh Lighting) who told...

@RonHebbard - Your little trick worked like a charm to at least give me an idea where to go. I did a visual of the alignment for centering, used your cap trick to determine which way to go, then moved each screw the same amount. I also took the lens tube apart and cleaned the lenses. Thanks

Take the transmitter with no mic attached and try to twist it, tap on it, and otherwise mechanically beat it up. On pther Shure transmitters, i have found microphonics caused by poor/dirty connections on switches, poor battery contacts, and bad connections internally. the suggestions to wiggle...

Thank you for all of the replies. The bulb that is in the one I brought home to play with is an FLK/HX600 - 575 Watt 115 volt. lamp. Playing with the bench focus I found a spot about 1/2 on the center screw away from where it was that looks better on the wall. I will see what it does when I...

I am having trouble getting a pair of 6x9 Altman 360Q's to light evenly and the same. We are adding artwork on a very plain wall for Lent and are trying to illuminate it to highlight the shapes in it and set a color appropriate for lent. My issue is that I have 7-360Q's acquired on the used...
