Got it, that's what I did. Looks like I'm sending it back. @CBW @ianmcd Thanks very much to you both for your help with this its really appreciated! :)

Got it, thanks. I disconnected the wires from the Heatlink and did as you suggest. At the Heatlink there is always continuity between NO and COM regardless of whether the Thermostat E is asking for heat or set to off. I can hear a clicking noise from the Heatlink when it changes to off - but...

Even with it set to 'Off' on the Thermostat E the heat remains on. Are there any other settings I should check? So swap it back to old Danfoss thermostat and try that? Will do, thanks! I'll report back with the result.

I've got a multimeter, but that's about it.

Hi, I'm trying to install a Nest Thermostat E but I can't get it to work properly - it always calls for heat. Its replacing a Danfoss RMT230 wired like this: I wired in the Heatlink following the guide on this page: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9247634?hl=en-GB Where it...

Perfect, thanks for your reply. I'll look for shutoff valves up near the cold water tank instead.

Apologies for asking such a basic question, I've tried to use search here and on Google but I don't know what the names of these parts are so I couldn't find anything. All I'm trying to do is change a tap washer (cold tap in a downstairs toilet room). I need to turn off the water to do so...

Varilight responded as follows: So I figure the next model up (YT70LZ) which is rated up to 35w for LEDs would suit my purpose.

Thanks for the replies, seems to be a variety of opinions. I've emailed Varilight to clarify the maximum load of the transformer and also to check if it is compatible with GU5.3 LEDs. Depending on what they say I'll look into toroidal transformers, but I'm hoping to not need to go down that...

Thanks again, It's a 0-50w transformer designed for LEDs, it'll be powering ~30w of lamps. Transformer info is here (YT50LZ): https://www.varilight.co.uk/lighting/dimmable-transformers.php Transformer datasheet: https://www.varilight.co.uk/leaflets/YTZ%20Series%20Transformers.pdf Lamp info is...

Thanks TTC, You're right, if I was starting again I'd buy GU10 fittings and lamps, but I've bought the MR16 lamps now so was hoping to be able to use them. I figured a new single transformer for the 6 lamps at about £7.50 would be the most cost effective way, unless there is a reason why I...

Hi, In my bathroom I've got 6 MR16 fittings which I've just put LED lamps into, problem is couple of them flicker, presumably where the transformers aren't coping with the LEDs. Each fitting has it's own little transformer, so my question is can I cut off the old per-fitting transformers and...

Done. All seems fine so far, thanks for your help:) Now to tidy up the room and route the cables neatly...

Good question, I hadn't thought to try that! I went and leant on it and gave it a few really good shoves, it doesn't seem to flex at all. Looks like I can get away with it?

Thanks for replying big-all, No, that's part of a window frame - here's another picture from further away. What do you reckon?
