    Floureon

    Hi, has anyone got a manual or programming guide for a Floureon HY08 thermostat? Can't find one anywhere on the www and similar units don't help me change what I want to change on the unit. Thanks.

    Twin and Earth Colours

    Sorry if it's been covered before, but what is the situation regarding using the old red/black T+E? Is it allowed or not? For example if you are adding a spur in the house, must you buy the new colours or can you use the old stuff if you have a reel of it lying spare? Thanks!

    my laptop does this too. Usually if i force it to disconnect then connect again it is ok. Or a router reboot. Sometimes i suspect it's a problem with my ISP though.

    had the NTOSKML.EXE changed message

    A bit of code

    I agree, do it as an exe. Parsing the filename in a script might be tricky. Probably be easier to make the code run on schedule otherwise you need to keep polling the folder for changes. thats the way i see it anyway.

    OVERHEATING CABLE

    i too have a 9,5kW shower on a 6mm2 cable and after a decent long shower, say 15 minutes, the cable temperature will rise slightly above ambient. No way would I say it was warm, let alone hot.

    Wind Generators

    Do you actually get "paid" for generating electricity or is it just a case of the generator opposes the electrical power that you use hence you consume less and so pay less in your bill?
