Yes, you really don't want someone hiding this URL:

I've mastered the art of opening things and finding out (more or less) what's there without really
looking at it.

Thank you, Mike (but that wasn't my url).

I also like to see the full URL, but don't get caught since I open tinyurls and the like with a text
browser whose requests are not monitored.

Yes, now that the .cx registry has yanked the goatse entry, I suppose low-minded people have to find
an alternate. It appears roughly 10,000 have put together an online petition to try and get it
reinstated. Oh the humanity.

You'll barely notice the ozone from an electric motor (unless you're in an elevator machine room).

Photocopiers, or even larger laser printers, OTOH....

Excessive dryness such as desert environs also degenerates rubber.

Some furnaces have electrostatic filters which also produce ozone.

re: Furnace motors and ozone- why would an induction A/C motor produce ozone? The solenoid which controls the motor might produce ozone when it energizes or deenergizes.

What kind of electric motors are used in photocopiers and printers?

Keep them in the dark and they should last a long time. When touring on a tandem, we carry a tyre
folded into three and wrapped in duct tape as a spare. The spare is just strapped on the outside of
a pannier. We used one Specialized Expedition after about a dozen years swapped in tape, and a
Specialized Fat Boy after eight or nine years, and both them were in good condition.

OTOH, I had some IRC Metros hanging in the garage for several years (where they get indirect light
and it gets pretty hot in summer and around freezing in winter), and the rubber had hardened
noticeably when I finally got around to thinking about using them.

If they have brushes, there will be arcing. That's where the ozone gets produced. Not all AC motors
are brushless, even today, particularly at higher power levels.

The amount there would be tiny.

>What kind of electric motors are used in photocopiers and printers?

It's not the motor, it's the electrostatic charge that's used to cause toner deposition on the drum;
this produces a fairly steady ozone output. It's smaller than the amount produced by some tanning
beds, though.

Yuk-Brushes wear out and furnaces in environs I've been near have been high duty cycle. With brushes that'be high maintenance. By high power are you talking about industrial or are there residential furnaces with brush motors as well?

Thanks,
