All rapid chargers in the UK accept debit/credit cards. The law requires this since November 2024. Slow AC chargers (same as a home charger) may need apps or other malarkey but you will only be using those if you are driving to a location that has one and will be staying there for a few hours...

That's exactly what it is. Real world range perhaps 60 miles in the summer. In the winter - good luck with that. It's probably the worst example of an electric van ever made. VW made it as a diesel, and some other company fitted electric drive in it using miscellaneous off the shelf low end...

Both will receive signals. The difference is when a slight breeze arrives. The Raptor will be fine. The other mess will be ripped down in seconds and destroyed, along with the car it falls onto. Those tri boom affairs are novelty pieces sold to the gullible who believe that lots of extra...

The VW is expensive junk. No bargains here. There will be no future upgrades or batteries for it. You are attempting to convince yourself that this VW heap is a suitable thing. It isn't and never will be.

Any of them The Fusebox one is £50 - pretty much as cheap as you will get for such a thing. The only other safe method is to have the whole garage on a suitably rated plug, and then have 2 socket outlets, one from the mains supply and the other for the inverter. Changing over involves...

You can, if it only supplies one socket outlet (double or single). No different from an unfused spur from a 32A ring circuit.

Its one of those newfangled wireless efforts. All controlled by an monthly subscription to the mind control device and the electricity magically floats via the ether to the appliances.

It's been nibbled by rats or mice. Check the whole length of it, and the hoses, and anything else that was stored near it.

You and that church hall seem to be the only one who has these complaints. Millions of buildings all over the world have had LED lighting as standard for years. Millions of complaints are not occurring.

The light spectrum that LEDs create is not created by the LEDs at all - it's created by the phosphors that are used over the LED die. Just as fluorescent tubes use phosphors to convert the UV light into visible. If the light output is not what is required then it's entirely the fault of those...

The paint isn't a problem but the solvents used in spray paint might be. Some of them will damage PVC.

The socket you have obtained is of no use there, it can only accept 3 of each wire. A likely solution is to obtain some of these: https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/WA405.html 5 way connectors, trim and strip the existing wires so they can be connected with those connectors flat against the...

Those obtaining the quotes let it slip that they already have X quotes from others even where X is 'a few' Very common. The only two options then are to find out exactly what has been quoted for previously which usually ends with finding that the cheapest one is cheap because it's only covering...

Please do NOT do that. Doing so will waste the time of at least 9 people and if that behaviour is repeated even moderately prices will be massively increased to cover all of that wasted time. If any trades discover that someone already has 5+ quotes, that person will very likely be labelled as...

Doubtful. AI assistant answer: Prosecutions Publicly reported court cases specifically for solely unauthorised removal of the cut-out fuse (without additional elements like meter tampering, bypassing for theft, or harassment) appear rare or not widely documented in mainstream sources, court...

If you want a single specific item in BS7671 that states 'do not connect solar to multiple circuits' then no, there isn't. If that type of thinking was continued, BS7671 would be thousands of pages of specific entries attempting to cover every situation possible. Fortunately standards are not...

Bidirectional devices is 530.3.201 which was added in Amendment 3 of BS7671 18th edition. For PV not connected to RCDs which supply multiple circuits, in BS7671 this is mainly covered under disconnection times 411.3.2.1 where if the PV inverter is connected to multiple circuits, when the RCD...

But if trouble had occurred, they might have preferred something more recent with additional safety features. Like driving a 40+ year old car with no seatbelts, no airbags, no antilock brakes and a mixture of cross ply and radial tyres. All perfectly fine and safe until it isn't.

A novelty item of little benefit in most situations. Problems being stored up for the future.
