I didn't think you could buy Halogen GU10's that were 12V? I thought they were all MR16s? I can't find my multimeter at the moment, however there are 2x GU10 Halogens and 1x Philips LED bulb in there. I'm sure its a 240v setup. Behind one of the lights, I've just found the twin & earth grey...

I'm just about to swap out our bathroom downlights, primarily the one above the shower cubicle because its rusted with some Aurora M Pro's. Whoever did the bathroom last, I'm not sure what they were playing at but the downlight that is already there is a standard, non IP65 GU10 lamp. The cable...

It's a wireless shock sensor so no wiring. It's a 3 pane window, the device is screwed through the screw holes into the window frame above the middle window For reference its a Texecom, the GBC-0001 I think it is

Well tapping with a screw driver, knuckles or fist makes no difference! They all report the same damn thing

I'm trying to configure a Texecom Shock Sensor, but I'm having a bit of a nightmare. In the guide, it says a firm tap, so it hit the window with my fist to simulate something like a football hitting it. If I am on low range but high sensitivity, I get a green light which indicates its not...

Is there a special way to go about linking garden lights? They all come with a 3 core tail, however i need to chain these together over quite a distance.

The only thing that is actually fed from the header tank is the bath, shower pump and both upstairs toilets Fortunately, if you're taking a shower, you probably won't be flushing the toilet! Everything else is from the mains supply. w/m, d/w etc are all cold feeds I'm not sure what size the...

Ah, I never thought about that. Where would the check valve be fitted in the system?

Must have been a lot of air in the system, one of the shower pretty much just exploded on me! Seems to be sorted now though!

OK, i'll give it a go. I thought air would have come into play somewhere, but thought that was the whole point of the flange. I don't really know how the air would have gotten in their though. The only way for air to get in there would have been via the header tank, but I can't imagine that...

Well the second part makes sense regarding the pump giving a blast, but why would it only just start? EDIT: Can confirm point 2 is correct. Its only on the hot water when stopped suddenly. I dont understand why this would happen though as the flange would stop the water from going to the...

Updated with a diagram. Essentially, tap downstairs is turned on and when turned off, the pump blasts for a second

We've had our shower pump installed for almost a year, and before that the previous owners had 2 separate pumps for the ensuite and main bathroom. We haven't changed the pipe layout and the only thing we did was install a flange for the hot water in the tank. Yesterday when both showers were...

I've just double checked and the Nexus range are the BG ones but they also offer a grid system with a press switch so that solves my problem :) Thanks

Thanks. Similar situation as it looks like I'll need to get a Varlight housing and a 1 way retractive switch module as its not something that can be replaced from behind

I've got the ( BG) Nexus range chrome switches throughout my house, however I need a momentary switch and they don't seem to sell them. Is it possible to buy a momentary style module and swap out a normal switch like you can do with dimmers? I've had a look around and it seems to answer is...

Can anyone suggest some garden lights, 240v? Everywhere I look, its either £50+ for 2, or £50 for 4 but they leak :/

I can't remember to be honest. Was on a forum, something about having to use brass and not steel

Thanks I was looking at those also. What size crimp do you suggest for those?

I've got to the point where I am earthing inside a plastic housing and I need to earth my Swa gland. I know I need to crimp the earth and the screw and nut it to the banjo, but can anyone point me in the right direction for a 20S? I read that you can't just use any metal bolt and lug. The...
