    Light Switch Help Please

    I'm in the UK at the moment and I've already been roped into helping family out. I've got 3 light switches to replace and I'm hoping maybe someone might have something very similar in a junk box in their shed and might be willing to swap them for a couple of beer tokens. The switches are very...

    Gas Powered Soldering Iron

    What kinda soldering do you do on site? How many hours a day are you soldering for? How often do you have jobs where you need to solder? Also what price point / what's your budget? If you're looking at the milwaukee there's a similar option from Aldi or Lidl... can't remember which that's...

    Gas Powered Soldering Iron

    I also have a dremel gas soldering kit, it came in a nice tin box which you don't see very often nowadays. I only use it if I've got tons of heatshrink to do, it's handy for that. I definately wouldn't try to use the dremel gas iron on LED strips or electronics.

    Gas Powered Soldering Iron

    I have three that I personally own and use and it just happens that I brought them all home to clean all the tips this weekend so I can show you pictures. My original was a TS100 which was one of the earliest battery powered electronic soldering iron offerings. It's a superb iron, it's...

    Sewing machine query - capacitor requirements

    Yeah, the safety and aesthetics would need to be assessed by the person installing it and my suggestion may not be a practical solution depending on the layout of the existing setup. Looking at the component values in the first post I summized it to be noise suppression filter rather than a...

    Gas Powered Soldering Iron

    Why do you specifically want a gas soldering iron? I'd suggest you should go with an 18v electronic soldering iron that can run off a small powerbank. Gas soldering irons were the bees knees before lithium batteries became a thing but they have a lot of disadvantages. They're often way too hot...

    Hi there, any chance you could......

    Good luck, I hope I'm wrong.

    Hi there, any chance you could......

    To be honest I wouldn't get involved with a customer like this. If they think that's acceptable behaviour then they obviously don't subscribe to far pay for a decent job school of thought so it's only going to get worse when it comes to invoice time. If you do decide to work for them I'd assume...

    Sewing machine query - capacitor requirements

    I would replace it with a noise filter board you can scavenge from an old microwave or washing machine. If you're not in a scavenging mood they're also available as new items from Amazon or EBay although I'd strongly recommend buying an OEM version and not a cheap Chinese knockoff. It will...

    Is there an IP68 socket?

    IP68 sockets are similar to IP67, they just take a few days longer for the water to fill them up....

    Is there an IP68 socket?

    Are the MI's in chinglish? If there's more that one or two spelling mistakes I'd assume it's a typo. You do get IP68 sockets but not for a standard 13A plug. Just use a normal outdoor rated socket if they've supplied it with a 13A plug.

    230v Garden spike lights with gland fitting

    As littlespark says there's no ways you're going to find spike lights that can accomodate SWA cables directly into them.

    Electricians Vans, any of you have electric vans? How good are they now?

    This is something that interests me because we have almost zero EV cars in my country, maybe once a week or even 2 weeks I see a hybrid car that doesn't need charging. They installed 2x charging stations in my local supermarket car park last year to make a bold statement about how enviromentally...
