Have you thought about using Sky Stream and/or Sky Glass to reeive Sky these days, then you wont need a dish at all.

Open all of the hot taps and showers (set to hot) you have, If you have isolated it the water will stop after a while, if not it will run hot then transition to cold as the cold enters the cylinder to replace the hot draining out. It can take a long time for the hot to stop if you are just...

Stick an air freshner or bobble head car mascot over it?

I have a Mini Cooper and have used Bimmercode to remember the last setting used for Auto Stop/Start. Then on the selector i keep it turned off. If i ever want to re-enable it (cant think why) i can do so. On the Mini it has a tendency to re-start the engine after sitting off for anything >1...

Could possibly be a failed flush on a toilet cistern, causing a constant flow of water into the bowl..

This site gives an excellent overview of S-plan systems and explains all of the wiring, etc. Flameport.com

Had a few in my time, most recent replacing a up/down combined 2-way lighting switch. Isolated downstairs as I was replacing others downstairs and progressed through them to the one at the bottom of the stairs. Shorted the upstairs live i/p to myself and the earthed metal faceplate, slight melt...

I can vouch for this, works great. https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/cillit-bang-black-mould-remover-power-cleaner-spray/679798-778624-778625

Just buy the C31 and be done with rip off Ring and Nest!

AC input 242v AC output at 24v tapping: 28.5v This is with the C31 doorbell connected (i.e. under load)

Are you measuring the output with the terminals not under load? i.e. with no doorbell connected? All I can comment really is that I have had my C31 on the 24v tappings since early Jan and it is all working fine, no issues or over voltage reported on the app (not sure it does this though). Away...

What’s the issue with having the SD card in the doorbell? I guess you are worried about theft. Personally I prefer it to record to itself rather than relying on a WiFi connection always being active. As for the transformer, I think the wording in their specs is crap. I have a BG 8-24V AC 8VA...

I believe so yes, https://support.eufy.com/s/article/When-eufySecurity-Devices-Encounter-Power-and-Internet-Outage This has a table of what will/wont work for each of their devices with/without internet and power.. I wondered that if the WiFi is still up (but internet connection from router to...

Not quite sure how the Nest works, but logic says that if it is a WifI doorbell that records to the cloud, when the WifI signal is degraded/blocked and/or your Internet connection drops, then it will not be able to do this and therefore it wont record anything. The only way around this is if...

I have ditched my Ring and fitted a Eufy C31 with a MiniBase chime and also integrated with Alexa. Working great after a few initial frustrations. 128GB card set for constant recording gives just over 2 weeks of recording time. Glad I ditched the Ring! I have it set to record directly onto a...

Thanks for the replies guys.. Had another chance to look at this today. I put food colouring down the pan and with the inspection chamber opened observed the flow. After a very brief amount of clear water i see the coloured water come straight out. Doing the same with toilet tissue in the pan...

Disclaimer: I'm not a plumber... On my MegaFlow system there is a procedure to follow when draining and re-filling the cylinder to re-charge the air gap that creates the flow pressure. https://www.gledhill.net/products/unvented-cylinders/stainlesslite-indirect/ Looking at the manual for your...

I thought all pipe and connections within 2m of the boiler needed to be soldered copper, looks like you have a push-fit and a compression joint too..

All fixed, new pressure relief valve fitted.

Sounds like a classic Frank Spencer sketch!
