Yes, that's the USB adaptor, the lighter doesn't have it. Thinking about it, I don't see how it could have, as it has a flat surface about 18mm dia which gets red hot to do the biz. My guess is the later type with the centre contact is just for USB and other accessories, and can't accommodate a...

All the ones I've ever come across have been the same diameter, 21mm. Pic of the adaptor attached, I haven't got the lighter to hand, bro doesn't live near me. I'm fairly sure there is no centre contact on the lighter, both peripheral, one of them making contact when it's pushed in. Thanks anyway

Don't know, but the only effect in practice is gas flow and heat output about 90% of nominal.

Yes, I'm sure, it works fine in my car. I'll try Halfords next time I'm over that way

My brother has a 1997 Volvo, and wants to use the lighter socket to charge his phone. We tried a standard adaptor with USB port and it didn't work. Assumed it wasn't getting power, but the lighter (which came with the car) worked fine. Turned out the adaptor has a central spring-loaded contact...

Is it possible to repair or replace just the microswitch?

Sounds like he didn't know how the system works

Same here!

Muslims aren't usually trying to convert native Brits (or others) to Islam, they're trying to import and breed Muslims, and pushing for acceptance of Islamic practices.

Yes, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to stop detrimental changes. Like Islamisation, as an obvious example.

It might be less efficient, or it might not, and I don't want to put as much thought into it as ericmark has! I was querying you (apparently) saying the load had to be kept above 7kW as that was the minimum boiler turndown. But I'm sure the difference in efficiency (whichever way it goes)...

principals principles

That's all right then

Why? If demand is less than 7kW the boiler should work On/Off. It just needs a minimum water flow, via a bypass valve if necessary.

Some of the sentences are pretty hefty, 18 years here I believe and somebody a few days ago got 35 IIRC. After years of doing nothing, or light sentencing, like the guy who was released after 1-2 years and running into his victims in the street, it seems to be going the other way.

Why do you think it matters? If it's a modulating boiler (which I assume it is) it will turn down to minimum, and if the heat demand is lower it will work On/Off, until the roomstat switches the system off. It's sometimes said on this forum that good turndown is essential, even to the extent of...

Is it a new problem, or a new owner of the house, or what?

That makes about as much sense as your earlier post #21 He associates a boiler service with a car service, and points out that either can do an inadequate job. That has nothing to do with my #27. But have it your way, I'm out of here...

OK, how does it relate to muggles's post? Why suggest changing any part, prior to the service which indicates the need? If muggles is right, all that needs changing is BG's service, make it more thorough. And anybody doing a service would find the make and age of the boiler before taking on the job.

Can you rephrase that in English please?
