Hence the question mark.

Sink waste plunger?

Get a quote then decide. Bear in mind if it is bearings then other parts will be beginning to wear. Only you can answer your question really

Are you trying to join 15mm copper pipe to a washing machine isolater

Silicon. ?

Edit Sorry eyes were deceiving me

That is a junction box. Probably where the supply cable joins the cable to the light fitting. Can’t tell anything from your picture. Have you checked the bulb or done any tests at all. More info needed ie where is it switched from and a picture of the light fixture would help

Possibly they didn't think of getting a new handle. It still seems to be all you need. It's at least worth trying to find one. From your point of view if not their's. Some good advice from oldbuffer.

So you just need a new handle? Perhaps something like this would do...

Surely it would wait for daylight

I thought it was so a car driving into the garage would have less chance of scraping the wall. But as you said a pretty strange design.

I thought you were asking specifally about smoke alarms. Which as I said could be simply isolated bt the lighting protective device. The whole smoke alarm. I wouldn't have thought it was worthwhile trying to repair one. So the lighting circuit is not going to be isolated for long while it's...

Why would you want to work on a smoke alarm. Surely you would just isolate the lighting circuit and replace the whole thing. I wouldn't think you would need to have it on a seperate circuit. Unless it was buried in a dark understairs cupboard and even then you could use a torch. Personally ours...

Does it work just outside of the house. If it does then it definitely sounds like a range issue of that one and suggests it is faulty ot not as described. So take it back.

Does the battery one work in the outhouse or not. Are you saying they both work inside the house but not in the out building. If that is the case then it would suggest that the internal walls are affecting the signal. Perhaps you need some sort of repeater.
