    GU10 blubs burning CCTV lens

    I believe 5000k is the optimim colour for use with cctv cameras but possibly not when directed at the actual lens.

    Carpark lighting

    I have heard this being an issue before from older sparks mentioning it, but have never experienced it myself, and even using the override feature thus energising the photocell the lights have turned on and stayed on with no on off issues.

    I don't have anything to hand but it would be Supply >>> timeclock >>> photocell >>> light, or contactor

    Long thin SDS bits

    Yes, but it's much faster to run a pilot 16mm through and then jump to 25mm as it puts much less strain on the drill and the battery, especially on the longer holes. It's something I was taught to do by my father and in both firms I served my apprenticeship and generally what I see most sparks do.

    Long thin SDS bits

    Agreed, I always use pilot holes, generally 16mm is OK to use as a starter and then go to 25mm, but would also depend on the material being drilled through.

    Carpark lighting

    I would imagine in series, with timeclock being used to control operation at a closed period during the night, but the photocell controlling the rest of the dark period which will vary depending on length of daylight.

    Best Rcbo board at reasonable price

    It's not being a tight --- to use a good quality board, at a good price, which the CP Fusebox definitely is, at under £200 for an SPD board with 12 rcbos why would ya want to pay more for a name. And have to charge a customer more or sacrifice profit for no gain on quality?

    help me pick a sds and combi drill!

    Dewalt all day long, milwaukee a close second, and makita if you're on a tight budget. Never had or used any bosch to comment but don't see to many boys using it which speaks volumes to me.

    Best Rcbo board at reasonable price

    My local CEF are stockists of Fusebox, as are 2 of my other wholesalers I use. The one in my town has stocked them for almost a year and I waited to see how they faired, seen a few other local contractors used them and regularly had pics on their Facebook page, so gave them a go and so far...

    Workshop Lighting

    Robus Sultan 6ft twin led fittings, they would provide you with more than ample light I reckon. Each fitting is just over 11000 lumens you might be best doing 2 rows as opposed to 1 row down the centre.

    Anybody bought one of those cable tongues? if so thoughts...

    I have the cable tongue pro, great piece of kit, better than a fish rod for pushing up the back of tight kitchen units that the screw ends don't go but a strip light flex will.

    Wall chaser cutting width

    That is what I have, metabo Mfe30 and the Dewalt 902 M class vacuum, its literally dust free, the new Metabo MFE40 looks a great job in that it eats out everything from inside the track, so no need to kango out or brush up the rubble from inside the track.

    Wall chaser cutting width

    I set my depth to 30mm and once I've ran the sds max down it once its usually perfect depth and width when I use the 22mm oval and just pushes in snugly by hand, no need for the dreaded obos and losing finger nails like when I was an apprentice and using an electric 300mm saw lmao

    Wall chaser cutting width

    The metabo set at 22mm fits oval conduit that takes 2x2.5mm t&e easily and squeezes into a 20mm knock out on a flush box too.

    Fusebox consumers units

    How many circuits? The rcbos and spd are approx half the cost of Hager.
