I am a dedicated reader of Techies Corner sub-forum and I have made the following statement previously but thought I would put it here as friendly feedback.
My favourite threads are the "electrical threads" - better than watching World Championship Wrestling.
I have yet to figure out which one is Hulk Hogan and which is Killer Kowalski and/or who actually wins - if anyone does. But the 'muscle flexing' is definitely entertaining.
And for the contenders - I find the 'information' and 'advice' provided on here so far above my uninformed head, and therefore (as an 'electrical moron') bordering on useless, I simply just go to an auto elec or sparkie and would not bother asking an electrical question on here.
Cheers - John

I can't speak for others, but I pitch my responses at a technical level. This way I avoid talking down to people and thereby offending them. If a layman's explanation is needed, I can adjust my response accordingly. I just need appropriate feedback from my audience.

As I have mentioned before, I am very hesitant to give advice on 240 volt installations. Electrical work should be carried out by a Licenced Electrician and I don't want to give advice that might encourage a member/s to attempt work illegally on 240 volt installations.
I also only give advice on simple low voltage matters (12 volt) as my knowledge is limited in this area. Since becoming a MH owner, I have learnt a lot about low voltage, solar and auto work, but still I'd rather leave the advice giving to those on this Forum suitably qualified...

I agree John, I had a burnt out fuse connection that was preventing us staying out without power any longer
For 2 days at a time ,we came in to Horsham to recharge our batteries and lo and behold across
the road was a auto electrician . $59 &1hour later all fixed ,happy campers all round and ready to
Go. The extra advice on fishing areas to go to came for free ...... But I'm sworn to secrecy
