    Ferrules in the middle at Lidl

    I wouldn't want to try it on my house. Typical 1970s. No two walls are straight or parallel. Does it have to auto level? The reason I ask is we were fitting new 400kV busbars to a gen transformer last week. The aluminium castings have to be bolted to the top of the bushings and then the bars...

    Heads up on a silly priced screwfix offer!

    The offer is still showing on the web site. I ordered yesterday, twice. One lot I could have picked up today, the second was out of stock on blanking plates but is due in tomorrow. My daughters house has been gutted and the spark doing the job is happy to use them.

    Digital clamp meters

    Check the specs first as some of the cheap ones only do AC current :(

    Ferrules in the middle at Lidl

    I bought a set last week. Seem pretty good but only used one size so far. I think it was around £12.50 for the set of ferules and crimper.

    Anyone know what type of socket this is?

    As you say, I have a feeling it's going to be a unique plug but then again I can't see Seaward going to that extra expense. I haven't had time yet to pull my Apollo apart to see if there's anything moulded on it.

    Anyone know what type of socket this is?

    I only need the plug. I need to make up a set of leads for a specific job. They need to be left on the job and just plug in the tester when needed. I'm assuming the ready made leads would have a moulded on plug so I wouldn't be able to knock up the leads needed and give them to the client...

    Anyone know what type of socket this is?

    These 3 pin sockets are used by Seaward on some of their PATesters, in this case an Apollo 600. I need to make up some leads but I can't find this socket listed anywhere. Anyone recognise them and point me in the right direction for some plugs? The socket is about 13mm diameter. I'll be taking...

    Flashing brake lights don’t work with DRL on.

    He's from Florida so maybe it's legal over there? I remember back in my yooooth when I had a Camaro (yes, I could reach the pedals!) the brake light were also the indicators.

    Ultrasonic cleaner??

    I went for a Creworks 3L jobbie. So far only tried it on some aluminium foil (yup, big holes as it should do) and some old coins. Cleaned them up lovely. It's noisier than I expected but seems to do the job.

    Ultrasonic cleaner??

    Well, that didn't go well. Just had an email from the 'UK not!' seller telling me the unit is faulty and it was the last one they had so they cancelled the order. Am I being a bit cynical here or perhaps it didn't reach the price they wanted ??

    Ultrasonic cleaner??

    Well, I've ordered one. A 3L jobbie. I'll see how it performs once it's arrived and let you all know.

    We're down at our chalet in Somerset. The sun is out, the sky is blue and just thinking of treating the wife and son to a high class meal. Wetherspoons or Brewers Fare. I live life right on the cutting edge!!!!

    Ultrasonic cleaner??

    I don't think sticking my head in the bath would be a good idea. My teeth are not removable - yet! :oops:

    Ultrasonic cleaner??

    From what I've read the plastic ones should be avoided. They don't work anywhere near as efficiently as the stainless. I'm not sure why though. Perhaps the plastic attenuates the ultrasonics? Yup, someone had a real bargain with that one at £45. Looks like it may be time to constantly watch ebay!

    Ultrasonic cleaner??

    Yup, it eats away at the foil but I can't test them before I buy.

    Ultrasonic cleaner??

    As usual with RS they are a bit on the expensive side. The cheapest is a bit on the small side. The next one up is over £200 with VAT
