I’ve moved into a house that has Nibo Modular dimmers on low voltage Halogen lights. I’ve replaced with LED MR16 bulbs but they now don’t work but work if I go back to halogen. Can anyone tell me if I can change the programming to make them work? The manual is here but I don’t understand...

Thanks - that's another model I had seen too actually and was considering.

We have an Archer C7, AC1750 Wireless router at the moment which works perfectly but need to extend the range of it due to thick walls. Powerline adapators have proved unreliable and need resetting often. The two I was considering was either the TP Link AC2600 (£59.99), AC1759 (£36.99) or the...

I think so, yes. Although can’t check. It’s in a house I’m buying but they seemed complicated to use and I’m sure they dimmed. Perhaps not hmm

Hi all I've currently got a vaulted ceiling in a lounge in a very old stone cottage. There are no eaves as such or ventilation, it has a slate roof with felt beneath. Between the rafters is fiberglass insulation only. Beneath the rafters is a plastic sheeting that i'm assuming was added as a...

Hi all I’ve got a fireplace that currently has a gas supply with a flueless stove in. Chimney is not lined. The stove needs replacing so am wondering which is the easiest option to go down. Considering putting an open fire in here but it’s quite a large opening so am just wondering how this...
