I heat the shops with a combination of electric heat and kerosene type forced air heaters. One of the heaters is on a thermostat the other is controlled by remote control that I usually carry with me. When the shop gets a little chilly, I will hit the remote and the heater fires up. Today I had some time, so I thought I would shred some newspapers for packing. I burnt the last paper shredder up and had bought a new one last weekend. I thought I would try it out and get rid of the papers setting around. I started shredding some papers and I noticed that the heater was running out in the shop, so I got the remote out of my pocket and turned it off. Went back to the paperwork, and the heater came back on??? What the @#$%. Every time I would put paper in the new paper shredder, it would trip the remote for the heater . I thought maybe it was too close to the paper shredder, creating some kind of interference, tripping it, so I took the remote in the next room. Did it again. I had to go out in the shop and unplug the heater. Can I hear Gremlins????
