    Cheap 2nd hand CCTV cameras?

    I've got a mixture. Two cameras are wired (where it was possible to get an ethernet cable back to the router), and two are wifi (cable routing was difficult, and they were in easy range of the router). Cable is better but not essential.

    UK Heatrae Sadia Electromax boiler not powering up at all

    Yes, switch off and then carefully use a screwdriver to prise the fuse holder out. Might take a jiggle or two (technical term that)

    But what did they say?

    Cheap 2nd hand CCTV cameras?

    Tapo C325WB. £80 (plus an SD card). Excellent picture quality, option to save to cloud also if required. Lots of features. Voice guidance to set it up. Full colour vision at night. They do cheaper options but this one seems really good value for money. No point risking 2nd hand in my opinion -...

    Will you vote?

    Absolutely. What's the sense in forcing someone to vote if there is no particular option they want to vote for. Makes no sense. If voting is ever made mandatory then there would definitely need to be a 'none of the above' option.

    What is under this lid?

    Definitely consider the noise. A constant whirring can be very annoying.

    UK Fluke 1662 MFT with Calibration Certificate

    Sell enough of those new tool bags/boxes and you should easily be able to afford it.

    I'd speak to one of the local mobility shops.

    They made me do it!

    They didn't make me do it. But I did it anyway. Cos I'm like that.

    When electrics go wrong!!!

    The terminal screw looks to be well down the thread compared to the other one. Did it miss the cable completely?

    Appliance power problem

    Fair enough. You win But whenever someone next brings me something to repair that's a few years old I will check the caps with my trusty old ESR meter and no doubt find a couple of duff ones.

    Appliance power problem

    My point remains, ie. The best the OP will have is a multimeter. If it has a capacitance range then he can measure the capacitance values. But be can't measure the ESR of the capacitors, and so cannot tell if they are OK or not. So the only way he will know if the capacitors have failed is to...

    Appliance power problem

    Irrelevant to my original point about ESR meters where you said they only need a multimeter.

    Appliance power problem

    An LCR meter won't tell you the effective impedance of a capacitor - it's 'goodness' in effect. You can have a cap reading spot on capacitance, but it can be next to useless. An LCR meter is no different to a multimeter with a capacitance range as far as measuring caps goes. It measures...
