    Using Wiser Smart Heating - seems limited

    what about smart plugs and lamps - you'd want to control them for dusk rather than say, a specific time. Doesnt seem unusual to me!

    Using Wiser Smart Heating - seems limited

    It would be sensible to switch on the heating at or around dusk. The actual time of day changes, of course, as the seasons go on.

    What's the suckiest vacuum cleaner?

    our miele does have a brush bar, but it slows down rather on carpets.....Ive never been that impressed with the machine, despite the price. I have shied away from Dysons over the years after some poor models early on.

    What's the suckiest vacuum cleaner?

    We have a Miele Cat & Dog, which is fine for general use on hard floors, but it fails to pickup all the dog hair (and sand, as we live by the coast) such that, if I vacuum thoroughly then try to use a carpet cleaning machine the latter clogs with hair and sand in minutes.....even if I'm not...

    Moving from Sonos

    earth strap on incoming mains

    Just replaced an old stopcock in our kitchen that had stopped working. There's an earth wire on the incoming copper water pipe. However, I also installed a surestop wotsit, which is plastic, so nothing after that in the house will be earthed (pipes, I mean). Should I organise to get a strap from...
