Good point, missed that bit, sorry Was thinking of checking if one heater was being powered permanently like in my case Mine also took some time to trip Brian

.

I had the same problem and it was one of the relays in the timer had failed so that one immersion heater had power all of the time. When the second one switched on, both were running and the breaker tripped. I replaced both the relays for less than £10 Do you have a multimeter or volt stick? Brian

Some tips on here https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/curse-enhanced-cds.725784/

Yes and have for a long time Some have bonus content like videos etc. I thought there was a way round it, but not used CDs for a while https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_CD Brian

Hi, I have a HITACHI DV18DCL2 drill and one of the batteries has died. Does anyone have a favourite place to buy new ones? It’s 18V Li-ion Thanks, Brian

Modern storage heaters seem to work well from what I have heard. Paying 16p per kWh overnight on economy 7, but still not as cheap as gas. Will also need a hot water tank/unvented cylinder Brian

Disk drives for PVRs like in a Sky box need to be optimised for video storage and not accurate data storage On a video it is better to ignore bad data and carry on to the next frame, so error checking is less rigorous. For PC data it is better to go back and have another go to get the data...

7 year old storage heaters will be a lot better than those from the 1970s; our 20 year old ones are not too bad, but nowhere near as good as modern Lot 20 compliant ones of course Are the heaters definitely coming on at the right times? Best way to check this is to read the day and night meters...

I agree it's expensive, but it's the function that I like: Set core to 30 or 60 degrees, set room temperature and that's it, and you can put clothes over it or a towel without it burning the house down There must be a cheaper one with similar features. If not, fan heater it is Brian

Thanks both. I'm liking the look of this oil-filled one: https://www.toolstation.com/terma-electric-radiator-camber/p57241 but a heated throw is a lot cheaper - time too talk to the boss Brian

A fan heater is not a bad idea, thanks Prefer blankets to duvet though and can put another one on when it gets colder

Hi, we have storage heaters on economy 7 and panel heaters in the bedrooms The panel heaters we have (Ambient Air) need someone with a degree to program them, but I don't want to program them, I just want to switch them on for a couple of hours now and then when it's a bit cold in the bedroom...

You say “heaters”. How many have stopped working? Did they all stop working together? Brian

Isolation transformer with grounded secondary and RCBO after that would do it Brian

I'm not sure about doing this as I think the Quinetic switches send a "toggle" request. This means that the receiver would then change state, so if it is on, it would turn off and vice versa. This means that the receivers can get out of sync due to interference etc. with the switch and some...

Looks like Lucid’s suggestion is the best way forward then, if your sub has speaker level connections

Hmm, page 14 of the manual says it outputs low frequencies from the main and centre channels unless 6 channel discrete signals are connected How are the inputs connected? Using the speaker level outputs is certainly another way of getting it working though

Have you tried adjusting the level on the Yamaha? P26 on this RX-V393RDS.pdf Brian

Does the splitter work on another device like a phone or laptop? Brian
