Thank you, I know I have told my children that too. I do have some old and bad habits like this, I should know better by now especially since I have needed to repair or replace several power cord plugs because they were separating from the plug. I am sure the damaged plugs were the result of this lazy and probably dangerous habit. I will try to be more conscious of what I am holding onto when unplugging power cords in the future. Thank you for pointing this out to me, I did not even realize I had done it, which proves it is a bigger problem for me than I thought it was. Thanks again for your comment and suggestion.
I don't think so, a Blue Alpine medium freeze-dryer draws 9 amps so running it on a 15 amp circuit should be fine. If you are NOT also running something like a toaster or refrigerator on the same circuit. I would probably run as few other things on the same circuit as possible, but a few LLED lights and maybe a phone charger or small radio should be fine. You can try to figure out how many amps each item draws and then try not to exceed more than 80% of the circuit rating. For a 15 amp circuit try not to run more than 12 amps through the circuit especially for a continuous basis. for a short time, you should be fine running slightly more, but if you exceed 15 amps the circuit switch will start to trip or "blow a fuse" and you will need to reset the circuit switch frequently. This would be an indication that you are running too many items on that circuit.
You make it look simple enough. Good job.
It really was surprisingly simple to set up.
You should never pull a plug from the outlet like you did. Always grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out!

Do you need a dedicated breaker for the medium one do you know??(
Yes you do according to this and others videos. 20 amp
