Tiny voltage on power off at the pole--Why?

If you got a heat gun just bend a little offset. It'll make your life way easier and save you the pain of squeezing the SEU into that little t body

I have a heat gun and strongly considered doing that. I was afraid the PVC would crimp/fold because it is large, two inch plastic. I also considered filling the PVC with sand before heating and bending.

2 inch I've done no problem just make sure you heat a large enough area at a time and turn it. If you have a temperature selection on it set it for 600° and that's what seams to be the sweet spot for me. Keep a dry rag with you and leather gloves on and smooth out the bend as you go instead of trying to make a wet noodle out of it because that's when it'll kink up at that size with such a small uneven heat source.

Lay it on a flat surface to keep it in one plane. Make only one bend at a time.

If you happen to have one of these


They work great for 1.25 to 2.5 inch. Typical heat guns aren't really as practical as they are for under 1.25 inch.
