I was wondering if anyone knows what to I should do with an toner cartridge or 3? I have been advised my current supplier to put them in the 'normal' bin (which was vague). As they are made out of recyclable plastic (PET) I feel that they should be recycled or refilled. If I were to put...

I've brought a couple or Bluetooth receivers which are usb powered. It was impossible to get them working at first. I eventually got them working, but with a different usb socket - the same or lower ampage rating. Does anyone have any idea what is going on here?

One of the responses to the "Strange Socket In Hospital" thread prompted me to search for the specs of 13 amp fuses. One of the suggested questions was "Can I use a 5A fuse in a 13A plug?" With the AI Overview saying it is dangerous to use a lower ampage fuse. Does anyone know how accurate...

This is more curiosity than anything. I have brought a job lot which included 2 packs of 'HS21A011 IR transceivers'. I can't find anything online about them, so was wondering if anyone knew what they would be used for and if they have any use/value. The only thing is says on both is 'OMRON'...

I have got a what could be described as a "150cm led globe tree w/200 static ice white leds rs01385" Christmas tree. Unfortunately, I was given this tree, but no power adapter was with it. From the labels it needs a DB-12-24 adaptor, these are for sale for prices around £20 or there are...

In the photo are some led lights I have. They have all been used outside (not by me) and still work. However, the set on the right have a sealed battery holder a with an IP65 rating and the other 2 are standard indoor battery holder. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is the only...

A question out of curiosity: During the recent thunderstorms, my router & RJ11 cable got damaged and stopped working - I've now got a new router ad all sorted. However, the RJ11 cable was not working when I used it with a temporary router... But, when I test the cable with a multi-meter I...

I've got some files that were recorded onto a memory card, which I would like to put on a DVD. I've transferred the filed to my PC, but now want to edit/trim the video before hopefully burning them onto a DVD. So far I've tried avidemux which saves the video as .mkv that I am not familiar...

Does anyone know what the biggest size pins/nails a staple gun can take? I have considered getting a new staple gun as the one I have is broken/worn and can be unreliable. I also have loads of boxes of 16 gauge x 25 mm long pins/nails, so it makes sense to get a new one that allows me to use...

After a bank holiday digging up and replacing a stop tap, the sole on one of my boots has started to come away from themselves. They weren't expensive (ebay, but seller suggested £50+ as the rrp) so were possibly seconds. As one of the boots is still perfectly serviceable, can anyone...

I've found a couple of speedtouch 330 modems (the black squarish ones) which I had for broadband years ago. Does anyone know if these have any use or value nowadays? -> I tried to get one working with windows 10 without success (if it has worked I would have had internet in a power cut). ->...
