Oi, we are not social workers who wear "comfortable shoes" you know :mrgreen:

If you are going to put a Fridge/Freezer into the shed then you have no need to isolate the supply when not in the shed. I would urge the route of installing a new circuit specifically for the shed with all requisite protection required for the location. Yes this might be more expensive and...

It's cheating using GPS. It would be worthwhile and educational if you used OS maps and a compass. :rolleyes:

I drove to Moldova and back last year in my Discovery. Covered 5,672 miles in total as we took the long way to get there and a longer way back via the south of France. Anyway, I used just over 135 gallons of fuel which equates to around 42 mpg..not bad for something that weighs 2.7 tonnes and...

Use the wife and a map...at least that way when you end up at the wrong destination it'll be her fault and not yours for a change :mrgreen:

Borrowed Neutral can do that too on circuits with dissimilar lamps (Bulbs come up in spring and don't light up when you stick them in a lamp holder). If you have low quality control gear in the CFL's then you can get discharge from this and it will mess with LED lamps...it's a real pain.

Just ban anyone who recommends banning another member...Oh crap....that's me banned then :mrgreen:

AGM batteries of the 7Ah range are designed for standby support for alarm panels, and smoke vent applications, that type of thing, They are not designed for sudden heavy current drain. Stick with lead-acid for this, for your needs I would recommend a Yuasa NP12-12 Lead Battery 12V. This is a...

Actually NO, that is not how society works, it only gives that impression, but hey ho There you go again, submitting to the notion that this is how it works..well no it doesn't All accidents are spurious and random..that's why they are called ACCIDENTS!! [ And the people on the A27 chose...

Personally I would have simply used Trend IQE4 controllers and added as required. Use their off the shelf software and voila...

If batteries are allowed to discharge very slowly via the atmosphere then this can cause damage to the plates. This has been known for a very long time. Modern batteries are designed for the purpose they are put too. Some are designed for deep discharge cycles with a fast recharge, some a...

Firstly, no need to shout. Secondly, who are you or I to decide what is and is not a necessity or is or is not Fun...different people, different cultures have different ideas and standards. Last time I looked Stalin was dead so we do not have or need the state deciding what is and is not fun and...

Looks like a 1908 Talbot...

If we banned everything when someone dies doing it then we would have to ban everything...

Samsung Galaxy Notes are the ones to go for Simon.

Life is too short to worry about trivialities of that nature. Leaving was the right course of action.

I think you should advise what you intend to run in your new shed.. then perhaps you can be given definite advise. Kevin (BAS) has given you options...but which you choose depends on how you intend to use your shed...

I see Kevin is as divisive as ever...I see Scouse has retained the same pragmatism he always displayed before. BAS is and always has been a difficult fish...but to be honest as others have said if you ignore the posts that don't apply to you or the topic but take the positives out of his helpful...

Try being 6ft 4" with a 40" waist and 33" inside leg...takes me weeks to find trousers and jeans that fit...all the manufacturers think if you have a 40" waist you must be short and fat!! GGrrrrrr

My balls are sore as I had a vasectomy and got an infection...now the apples are back to normal size and healing!!
