Hi Wrenches,

If, through discussion on this forum, you all can come up with a 
wish-list for a label package, I am willing to help put together a 
label kit. think about:

Wording (for common situations);
Variations on wording (to fit less typical situations);
Sizes (to fit common equipment); and
Other variables that would effect the usability of a sticker set.

I can do the research on weather resistance (water, UV and time) for 
sticker stock, printing, and of course, design.

I'm interested in your preferences for clear vs. white (or something 
else like "danger" red)? What do you know about code requirements for 
type style and size (or I can look into that)? Legal and code 
required wording as well as preferred or additional wording?

Basically what would the ideal RE equipment sticker kit look like to 
you? Or, what about adhesive-backed engraved plastic signs? Any other 
formats?

Ben

PS I will look into this as an independent, not as a representative 
for Home Power.
