i was lucky enought to find a guy that sold me two 15x15 used mighty presses for $100. he gave me the deal because they didn't seem to be working right, and the 20 amp fuse kept tripping on the presses.

i found out that you can replace the built-in fuses on the presses (in my case, i called Stahls, the maker of the mighty press) and they sold me a replacement fuse for $18 ($27 after shipping).

as someone who thought originaly that i might need to hire an electrician to solve my heat press problems -- i just bring that up as something to check out before hiring an electrician. ;-)
