Since that's dark, more light is preferable.I bought some LED light strips (3-4 lights each) that are battery-operated.

(caulking, TP holder, shower rod/curtain)$100-$200 blinds (not sure why blinds are always in bad shape)$100-$300 misc (bulbs, smoke detector batteries, furnace filters, window screens)10% market on job for PM to handle everything.

Hello all,I'm looking for info on daily and monthly usage by commercial properties (small and large multifamily, office buildings, hospitals, hotels, shopping centers) to see how much electricity they use (ex. kWh or MWh) and some estimates for current monthly electricity prices.I will be using this info to see how cost-effective it would be to sell combination solar systems with battery power (night/backup) to commercial property owners.Anyone with guidance on which direction to point me in for learning more about energy generation, storage, and usage, or anyone in the energy industry, feel free to reach out and contact me.Thanks!

In 2018 Baltimore County is requiring carbon monoxide alarms / detectors to be:hardwired with a secondary battery backup (similar to smoke detector requirements in Balt County now)battery must be sealed, tamper resistant, and must last for a minimum of 10 yearsconnected to an on-site control unit that monitors the carbon monoxide alarm remotely so that a responsible party is alerted when the device activates the alarm signal and receives its primary power from a battery or the control unit(Ref: Baltimore County Notice with details)The one in bold specifically concerns me.

I was given an implanted cardiac defibrillator that runs on lithium batteries..

Get a good driver/drill set that also has other tools that run on the same batteries.

A few days worth of down time will certainly recharge the batteries.

Try Quatro Electronics, they have wireless PIR's and use a cellular modem that sends 20 second video clips directley to a central station, it's battery powered too so it's self sustaining with over a 2 year battery life (with alerts when battery gets low)

You can't rely on these people to change the battery in their smoke detectors, let alone keep a carpet clean.

Tenants know I do a series of other maintenance items on the same trip.This is my basic list.(1) Replace AC filter.(2) Bleach AC condensate drain line.(3) Test thermostat and replace batteries if necessary.(4) Exercise ALL shutoff valves - kitchens and bathrooms.(5) Inspect and feel around under sink drains for moisture and leaks.(6) Open toilet tank and look at the tank bolts and overflow tube.(7) Test garbage disposer and throw some ice down.(8) Test smoke and fire alarms.
