Odd Dimming System Warning

[microstar]

Oddly enough I had never considered connecting my garbage disposal unit to a dimming system before, but I guess you can never be too careful.

Yeah, That'd be a horrible way to flush a lot of hard work down the drain...

I don't think Dr. DMX has proposed a DMX-controlled version yet, but never say never.
Let's see, what other equipment should not be connected to a dimming system?
table saw
washing machine

Arc welder

So you're saying that I should leave Strand lekolites and Colortran fixtures unplugged?

Was thinking what a great addition to the booth. A place for the show paperwork after closing. I’d even do the show file on a cheap USB and do a symbolic grind.

@microstar Railway crossing gates (Possibly because they're DC>?) Lift bridges over deep canals, guillotines (both those intended to modify people and the automated ones used in printing shops to accurately severe 12" thick stacks of printed paper freshly out of the press into neatly trimmed finished stacks ready to be bound into pads, calendars, owners' manuals and books.) Watching how quickly those things trim 12" thick stacks of press width paper into pads, et al, is SCARY!!!
Toodleoo!

What about my Tesla?

@Amiers And maybe a Van de Graf (Sp?) generator to go with it? (A Tesla coil or a Tesla convertible?)

Actually an autotransformer is perfect for slowly ramping the [input] voltage on a spark-gap tesla coil!
