I'm very glad that my wife was here and the house is still standing. We could have easily returned home to a smoldering heap of rubble. The 2 GFIs will be installed this weekend....until then I'm not leaving the house. I'm also glad that she resisted her initial urge to grab the plug and yank it from the wall while standing in a puddle of saltwater.
The HOB skimmer is definitely on the way out....when it's in the sump I suppose it can overflow and not be an issue, at least this kind of issue. Now I'm eyeballing my HOB overflow with suspicion....
I know nuthin' about an APC UPS....but I think I had one for my computer at work a while back (it's the thing with the battery back up, right?) and it gave up and shorted itself and smelled remarkably like my house does right now.
I'm REALLY glad I decided to stop keeping my box full of oily rags and old fireworks next to the aquarium last week
