    knob

    Apologies for 'bumping' an old discussion - was the most recent one I could find. I've also got a Series 14, and the thermostat control knob has broken off. Don't suppose you know where a replacement part could be found; presume it'll be the entire thermostat regulator that'll need...

    GU10 Fittings - Bulbs not working

    I've got an electrician to come and look at the issue on Monday (I'm just not confident with electrics). Could be as simple as the fittings being faulty or as you say something more. Thanks for your advice and to everyone else who has contributed.

    GU10 Fittings - Bulbs not working

    Sorry for the continued obvious questions and statements: Fittings are JCC Lighting JC94002, with required lamp replacement being a GU10 50W aluminium reflector forward heat bulb. In the last couple of months, I've been fitting them with Philips GU10 50W Twistline halogen bulbs. Nothing...

    GU10 Fittings - Bulbs not working

    I'm using 240v GU10 50W bulbs. Fittings have 250v 100W printed on them.

    GU10 Fittings - Bulbs not working

    There are 4 separate GU10 downlight fittings in the ceiling, controlled by a single light switch. Three of the fittings do not work. Initially one fitting did not work, then two fittings did not work, now three fittings do not work. Have replaced bulbs in said fittings but still no light...

    GU10 Fittings - Bulbs not working

    The bulbs normally last between 6 months and a year, which is expected. What I don't understand is why 3 of the fittings no longer work, even when I put new bulbs in them. Are you saying it's normal for the fittings to need replacing? What concerns me about the fourth switch which I...

    GU10 Fittings - Bulbs not working

    New build apartment, around 4 - 5 years old. I have 4 x GU10 fittings in the kitchen which are controlled by a switch on a 4 x wall gang of switches (one switch turns all 4 x bulbs on or off, other switches are a dimmer for the living room area, switch for desk area and a 4th unknown switch)...

    Blown Dimmer Switch / Bulb - Lights now always on?

    Thanks for explaining it - understand it now. Have a new dimmer switch ordered so that should do the job. Thanks again.

    Blown Dimmer Switch / Bulb - Lights now always on?

    The GU10 bulbs I've purchased have an internal fuse, but this bulb was in the property when I purchased it (new build) around 3 / 4 years ago, and has never needed replacing - so perhaps a chance it didn't have an internal fuse in the bulb. The bulb itself wasn't difficult to get out and...

    Blown Dimmer Switch / Bulb - Lights now always on?

    Thursday night one of 4 50W GU10 bulbs blew. Very loud bang, glass fell out of the bulb(!) and tripped lighting circuit fuse at the fuse box. Swapped bulb out for a new one (again 50W GU10), switched fuse back on at the fuse box, all lights are on. Went to press the dimmer switch to turn...

    Drayton Tempus 4 Weekender

    Chris, Thanks for confirming my suspicions. I had a passing thought that the backup battery may have died, but that shouldn't mean it doesn't switch on when the power came back on? After my post, I looked at the Tempus 7 and noticed it is a direct replacement and only costs around £50...

    Drayton Tempus 4 Weekender

    I think we have a Drayton Tempus 4 Weekender controller / timer in our house. The reason I say "I think" is because it's a rented place, there's no manual for it and the writing is in a hard to read 1990's style (it was obviously fashionable back then). We had a powercut last night, and I...
