    Outside lighting

    Want to be able to give the client a few options, if they still want to go with halogen then fine. Had thought about metal halide, what wattage would I need?

    Currently doing some work in an commercial unit. Customer wants basic 400w halogen floods to illuminate car park and sign etc. I'm not too keen due to the frequency I'll be back changing lamps. What would you guys recommend that would give a similar light output.

    Immersion Heater Mystery!

    Had a very similar fault once. No obvious cause for immersion to not be working but when tested with a clamp meter it was taking no load. Only solution was to replace the immersion.

    wiring for room stat
