I find this argument thoughtless. Those of us who don't own our own homes are often prohibited from making these kinds of modifications.

You can always suggest this improvement to the landlord. And if it keeps you there safe and happy, (s)he will invest easily in any electrical modifications improving your quality of life. Then it becomes an improvement at "no cost" to you!

yeah, or you could ask the landlord. As long as it is done correctly they probably wont care.  Or you could use your stove outlet (40-50amp 240v) or if you have a gas stove tell your landlord you want an electric stove and you will pay for the outlet to be installed. Keep the gas stove and use the juice.  same could go with a dryer.

er using the stove outlet ..would this adapter work..ie...at your landlord's place (i assume you pay for electric) at least in the USA
use this with your stove or better yet in basement electric dryer outlet... heh Smiley

Well I could have gotten away with this in a couple apts I had ..in that they had 220v outlet for a window a/c unit..(just use that for the miner) and
put in a regular 120 a/c unit at another window heh Smiley

anyway for those who think this may be of use (may be other end types available)..this could work?

I make no claims it will just tossing it out here for those who MAY be at a loss on what to do..trying to provide a 'ah/ha'/ moment for your guys stuck in
some way on this issue..due to apt living etc

anyway maybe I'm off the mark ..but maybe it is something useful to those in this boat
