(UPDATE) On the Teflon Tape on the AC Plugs Tweak @

4.87.98.88

Three coatings of teflon tape on each ac prong is the sweet spot for this tweak. When you put the second coating of teflon tape on the ac prong you DO NOT put it over top of the teflon tape that you already have on the ac prong...you put it right above it on the metal prong and then you push the teflon tape down to the base of the ac prong. You do the third coating of teflon tape the same way. When you put three coatings of teflon tape on each metal prong of the ac plug it takes about 21 days to settle in good. Just WAIT until you see what this does to your HDTV PICTURE !......

I would expect that this is plug dependent. Did you notice this? - Norm 16:50:07 10/09/09 (0)
