Thank you for this information. Don't get me wrong - I do appreciate the time people have taken, and I like JohnD's time-lapse solution, but I was hoping for something proprietary, whereas it looks like I'll have to dope my own silicone wafer to achieve what I want. Surely there's...

Do I? Do I mean a "GAS METER mate!". I think not. But you're right in one respect - it is simple. FYI, my own domestic gas meter doesn't log any data at all - it just shows the accumulated amount of gas used. I haven't seen any domestic gas meter that behaves differently. What I need...

Can anyone help me find a product that will log domestic gas consumption data? Do some meters already support this concept? If so, how do I identify the ability when looking at the meter? If not, is logging possible without inserting another meter into the gas supply?

Hullo Nige, hope you're still letting the good times roll :) Nige I was avoiding HCl because it's not good for stainless steel. In case it's of interest to anyone, FX2 did the business. The data sheet says it has >34% Phosphoric Acid and some Citric Acid. I put 1.25 litres of FX2 into 5...

@ JohnD - yes I'm truly sympathetic about your jacket - I'm sure Agile will get you another one. Well, I say I'm sure, but that's really just wishful thinking. Anyway, DS-3 is [much] less powerful than DS-40, hence I have a dust sheet that makes your jacket look like a brand new ermine...

Ah OK. FX2 appears to be a Kamco powerflushing chemical, described as follows: Blend of phosphoric acid, organic acids, water, wetting agents, corrosion inhibitors and methyl orange colour change indicator. Phosphoric acid (> 34%). CAS no.: 7664-38-2 Citric acid CAS no.: 77-92-9 Also...

Thanks joe-90, but Hydrochloric is a no-no with stainless steel. Thanks Onetap - DS-40 is what I've been using. Initially the results were astonishing and therefore encouraging, but I have to call it a day now because it has stopped showing any signs of improvement. Thanks JohnD - I...

Hello Chaps Happy New Year to all of you. I've tried and failed to remove a near-total blockage of scale from within a stainless steel secondary cylinder coil. I've been using DS-40, and it helped to extract more than half a bucket of chalky deposits, as well as whatever was dissolved...

To those of us who remember "notb665", please spare a few moments of quiet contemplation to consider the people who were close to notb665, and who are now without him. If you didn't know him, then maybe it's equally important to remember anyone and everyone less fortunate, and to be thankful...

Do you still have the box that the computer came in?

No you don't - you need to start a new topic. You go to the new topic. Then ditch AOL change to a proper ISP :roll: That's two fundamental mistakes you've made. Only Starbucks will know the answer to that question. Do you actually understand the question that you're asking? Because...

I really don't care. If you don't want to use one on a Vaillant, then don't use one on a Vaillant. FFS grow up.

No it wouldn't. No they aren't. This is a chink of light shining on the truth of the matter. Let's be thankful that nobody's paying you for that advice. _____ Yes. No. I don't know - the manufacturers know. Instead of an ion-exchange softener, notwithstanding the fact that...

As has been said, the lower element has probably failed, but it's worth checking under the cap for any failed wiring that could trip an RCD. If you can't use the off-peak element then you can still heat the water using the boost element. The daytime units are more expensive, but it will tide...

This topic is intended to commemorate "notb665". Please spare a few moments of quiet contemplation to consider the people who were close to notb665, and who are now without him.

Rising damp does not exist ;)

Correct. Andy is married to Beeb.

I can think of a reason - when they accidentally kill you in the OR then they can brief the press secrectary and the lawyers accordingly, and also order in the correct priest/rabbi/imam for the last rites.

Neither of those sits very well with me, but I imagine that they represent otherwise oppressed minority groups who are aiming to be treated equally, whereas the BNP is a white-supremecist club that's masquerading as a party in a democratic state, but has the sole agenda of excluding racial...

I feel strongly enough about this to make a one-topic contribution: It's high time that the BNP was brought to account over its blatant racism. I just can't believe that it's taken this long for someone to seriously address the vile and p*ss-ripping antics of Nick Griffin, who was convicted...
