That and you don’t offer extra money. I suspect that these “lab techs” pay extra, and the landlord looks away because very few labs blow up. If the landlords don’t inspect their property they have plausible deniability. “My, I had noooo idea, golly gee, a lab”. (Not factual, just a deep dark suspect.)

So you have the statistics on what percentage of labs blow up available for us, por favor? Or, perhaps, (and more likely) direct, hands on experience in the process, and a dismissive, careless attitude towards gas blowers?

They can inspect till their eyes pop out of their head. This isn’t some sort of “lab” complete with tools, instruments and equipment. It was most likely made up of what you see in the photo and a hot plate. How hard is that to hide that from a landlord?????
