i have a potter ton kingfisher mf. It is sometimes locking out. It also makes a clicking sound before firing up. Sounds like a relay which clicks twice sometimes 5 times and repeats until it fires up. Adjusting the main temp knob varies the speed at which this happens. Just after the first click...

Nice answers guys, I was thinking of road planings myself instead of scalpings or Tarmac as a compromise. We looked at road adoption but it's not wide enough for them to adopt. It still may be worth asking them to do the work, I hadn't thought if that.

I live on a private unmade road, more like a dirt track. In the past one half of the road was tarmaced.this has broken up in patches and scalpings layed over it to a depth of about 3". The rest of the road has been pretty much left as it was with the odd bit of gravel mud and scalpings placed in...

I'm not sure I thought it would be straight through but I've hooked up the DVD audio out to the Hi Fi amp while keeping the HDMI from DVD to AVR, instantly sounds better. There's just a lag from AV amp I need to play with to get the lip sink right. This will mean playing with two volume controls...

Thanks Lucid, that has to be the best description of what the problem is and what needs to be considered. I've looked at the suggestions you made and feel the right thing to do is get an Arcam 300 or 350 and sell the Yamaha. 3D doesn't really do it for me so won't miss some of those gadgets...

I have an old pioneer SA 520 hooked up to one and sometimes 2 pairs of IFM CM2A speakers in a 16' square high ceiling cinema room. I have the luxury of turning it up to 11 without disturbing the wife or kids or neighbours however I'm thinking of upgrading but need help on what to go for for...

[/url] This tells me its about the government. And carbon credits can be traded, so the supplier gets paid by someone else so it doesnt have to put up the price of energy?

Sorry I cant open the link. Why on earth would energy companies give their customers the means of producing their own energy? Why has FiT been associated with the government? It doesnt sit right with me.

The government will take it from anyone of a number of taxes. If these energy companies put their prices up it will open a gap for another competitor to step in. Does all road tax go into maintaining roads, No. The only thing taht annoys me about this whole thing as far I can see is the...

This must be a wind up. Its OK for the government to hand out yours and my cash by the bucket load to undeserving so called political refugees murderers etc. but not to people who payed their taxes and in many cases the people who can afford PV have probably paid more tax into the system...

Well there certainly are 2 camps here. I prefer the morally correct path of creating jobs, cutting polution and having a better world for our children to grow up in. Ive got a big shed, I could fit 3 more panels on that too.

This is called a 'loss leader' and its extremely common. Its designed to stimulate this area. The project is to be scaled down in April. As with virtually all things they start off expensive and not so efficient. There are enough panel manufacturers to provide healthy competition and drive down...

I think in your mind that makes them dispicable. You have a choise and you choose to be victimised by this government, not by me!

I agree with you bernardgreen its difficult to see the truth. Ive heard of the rent a roof schemes I think your either daft or a show off to have them. What seems sensible is if the house is sold the PV stays just as the CHS stays. But would the original FiT stay with the house or the owner...

Mostly magazine articles and what friends who have bought them have been told. (Probably by the purveyors) I dont know of anybody who has sold their house with PV. I dont even know if the FiT contract stays with the house or the owners?

Apparantley they increase the value of your home which should be factored in. In a perfect world you could get back most of the outlay. In my case, you wouldnt actually see most of the panels as they would be on the side of the house up against a boundary.

OK, so to sum up, I'm poor, and I have no intension of spending 25K on solar panels and theres no way round getting that price down and I'm a bad person. :cry: Thanks PJ, I have 2 usable roofs 10x4.5 and 6x4.5 and 3 average size skylights but it looks like a no go at the moment. I'll wait...

Thanks PJ your right, thats why Im asking here. Its all new and some info is not thateasy to find.

From the calculations on a comparison website, a £25K installation would take 7 years to pay for its self. But Im not looking to pay £25K Ive got a bungalow with about 70m square of usable roof so yeh its pretty big and its dead south facing. Not sure the £25K interest has anything to do with...
