If you have any friends that have an account at a restaurant supply house (place around here is called Restaurant Depot) you can get some great stuff at reduced prices.
Could you try to have their family call your house during that time?
If they could call and it doesn't interrupt your sleep, it'd be a better solution.
I only get about four hours of sleep a night, so I can understand what you're going through.
You're going to burn your house down.
Do you have any idea how hot those bulbs get? Do you have any idea about the fixture wiring?
Most residential ceiling fans using bulbs like that will be rated at 150w max.
Also, I highly, highly doubt your ceiling fan was using a bulb providing anywhere...

As of 2005, they were not. If the AHJ has adopted 2008 in its entirety, they (tamper-resistant receptacles) are required. The 2008 code also expands the AFCI requirement so that basically, if the outlets (for those reading, receptacles != outlets) aren't required to be GFCI protected, you need...
I'm not disputing any of what you're saying regarding best practices. But there is a world of difference between best practices and minimum code requirement. When people start taking best practices as minimum code requirement, you get renegade inspectors that think they can do whatever they...
What is mandatory in your opinion doesn't matter unless you're the AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction). The general requirement is that there is to be no more than 12 feet between receptacles concerning uninterrupted wall space (there are quite a bit more requirements to this but I'm not...
For a residential circuit and according to the NEC, that is 100% wrong.

That's from Mike Holt. If you're in the Electrical Industry, you might recognize his name as one...
Yet this doesn't restrict how many receptacles can be installed in that 600sq ft area. This is also only for a 15A circuit. A 20A circuit would be 20A * 120V = 2400VA / 3VA = 800 sq ft. And one more thing, this is only for load calculations on a service.
Max load of what exactly?
