I pop them once in a while because of other things the customer has on the same circuits or just old crappy wiring.

No, what I was saying was that the Rotovac salesman told me the 1003HV was a real circuit blower and that unless I intended to use a generator I would not be happy with it.  He talked me out of it and lost some income for Rotovac and him (unless there was some special spiff going on between Mytee and Rotovac on the 1001HV which isn't beyond the possible).
