    hahaha....I dunno, I was trying to do the whole hairdryer/ air duster dent removal thing on my girlfriends car. It didn't work. Probably cause it was a shitty hairdryer that was bought at Walgreens. :(

    All sorts of stuff, to include air mattress pump, and when the power went out at my house I needed coffee so I tried it. It took about a 1/2 hour to brew and I had to reset the plug a few times, but I did get my coffee.:)
