I've watched a few of his videos, I think he's on the wind-up

Both of those comments are already there on YT
Sorry I don't watch electricians YTs anymore as most of them are opinionated tosh or tool adverts

You could in my lounge since I have swapped out the 2A round pin 546 sockets for 1363s...
But I will label them "LIGHTING ONLY".
I was going to get them engraved, but the prices were silly.
I miss enable.co.uk they used to provide a great service. I've not found anyone else since offering a similar service.
Well for a start winston can't because he thinks it's against the regs
That presumably is/was the case because he was unable to read and/or understand very clear and explicit regsWell for a start winston can't because he thinks it's against the regs
Who?Well for a start winston can't because he thinks it's against the regs
He hasn't been gone that long, or has he?

The whole idea of someone making a video with blatant errors in judgement is a problem. If on this forum, I try and explain how lights don't give out light, but suck in the dark, pointing out to support this that tungsten light bulbs go black at the base when full, and they have sucked in as much dark as they can, and even the wick of a candle goes black.
Someone would point out the errors, and anyone reading the post would see the errors, but when it is a video, if someone shows how to export electric by tricking an inverter in to thinking the grid has not gone over voltage when it has, or how to fit a thermostat without cable restraints and taking power from the wrong point, and isolating at the isolator they are about to delve into, fitting a dual channel when should be a single channel, the errors are not blatant enough to be clearly wrong.
They are likely what we would do when no one is watching, but would not make a video showing our errors. I have just been watching one
not bad enough for me even to note the errors on first watching it, I wanted to get rid of my own Nest Gen 3 thermostat, and had not at that time made up my mind on hive or wiser, lack of cable clamps, changing from volt free to low voltage (230 VAC) only, as he was using a two channel version. Are so easy to miss.
