PostHeaderIcon 10 Great gifts for the Producer in your life.

To do.

2.  A subscription to Variety

Newspapers may be dead, but the weekly Variety is still a treat for Broadway Producers.  They may put us in the back of the mag, but anyone that titles the theater section "Legit" is worth a subscription in my book.

3.  The Kindle

Here's the bigger ticket item on the list that's worth 100x its weight.  In addition to reading more books, I'm now reading more scripts, thanks to the awesome PDF feature on my Kindle.  I took 8 scripts with me on a recent weekend away, all stored in my kindle.  If I had taken them by themselves, I would have had to check an extra bag (in a crazy way, the Kindle is already paying for itself!). 

4.  The CTI 3-Day Intensive

The 3-Day intensive taught by the Commercial Theatre Institute is a great primer for those looking to get a taste of what it means to be Producer.  CTI is the equivalent of teaching a man to fish.

5.  A Telecharge Gift Card

Yep!  You heard it right!  Telecharge finally has gift cards!  Woo-woo!  Celebrate by picking one up for your mini-Merrick.  My biggest regret as a Producer is that I didn't see enough shows as I was coming up.  It's expensive, as we all know, so help defray some of the costs with some good old fashioned tickets. 

6.  A subscription to the NY Lottery

Win the lotto and you could actually produce to do.

2.  A subscription to Variety

Newspapers may be dead, but the weekly Variety is still a treat for Broadway Producers.  They may put us in the back of the mag, but anyone that titles the theater section "Legit" is worth a subscription in my book.

I'm looking at mag starters that come with heaters. Are there equivalent solid state units?

For instance, I'm looking to install a motor starter for my 7.5hp 3phase 21.6amp pressure washer motor. I like the Square D and Allen Bradley starters. But these electro magnetic types are rather expensive. Is used a good option? Are there solid state alternatives which are more cost effective and require manual reset on power loss like the electro magnetic type? I guess they would be resettable, instead of dropping $50 for new heaters each time they trip. But, will I be losing some security because solid state options fail closed? Decisions, decisions.


Do not buy used starters. As a matter of fact, do not buy any used electrical switchgear, since you will not know what kind of faults they have been subject to.
Solid state starters are not cost effective when compared to switchgear starters (for good reasons). If they were, you would never see a switchgear starter anywhere.

I suggest you buy a European contactor complete with thermal overload. The overloads of this type use bi-metal strips & protect against loss of phase symmetry (amongst other things). The overloads can be selectable between automatic & manual reset. Make sure that if you select this type of contactor, the AC-3 current (or power) rating is used. The overload must be rated such that you can select 125% of the full load current of the motor. A failure to do this will result in constant overload tripping on starts. In short, you must set the overload to 1.25 times the Full Load Current. This is standard practice.
