So, after viewing the linked video that GBody Man put up in the FWD to Twin Turbo Conversion thread, I found myself looking at other videos.

Thanks to Youtube doing what it does best, I found this gem: Warning, profanity: https://youtu.be/OgKQihUEFA0

Do people actually review what they post before it goes online?

I think computers need to come with a breathalyser or maybe a 5 day waiting period like handguns.

While the ranting is kind of incoherent, I do agree with him. If your electric meter reading is affected by a magnet then some electrical engineer needs to go back to the drawing board. A $300 meter tampering fee for setting a magnet on your meter box is ridiculous.

What he doesn't realise is that the meter, even though it is attached to his house, is not his property.

I do think the charge is a bit excessive, could they not have given Mr. Crazy a warning first? Or maybe they have already.

I just wasted 5:27 watching that. Thanks a bunch. Couldn't you just have said: "crazy guy makes dumb video and you'd be dumb to watch it too"?

Noooo. You had to take us with you.

The meter isn't his, That you are correct about, but the socket that the magnet was stuck to sure is his property.

The guy probably made an honest mistake and didn't realize that magnets will reduce the reading on your electrical meter (if it's the old style with a spinning disc - the magnet will slow the disc's rotation).

I think he made his point w/ differentiating metals w/ magnets while shown on the right side of frame. However, the left side frame appeared to be all nonferrous metals... as if already well sorted... and too damn convenient to the meter.

I dunno, where would you keep your magnet?

Just sayin'
