I have a baffling problem with a newly-installed PIR floodlight and I'd like advice from the forum as to whether it's defective (and should be replaced) or if I've done something wrong.
Background
My new house (2008) had six old-school halogen PIR-operated floodlights all round; only one of...
Hi all,
No change to electric wiring and supply and no change to the previously working light bulbs but now when I turn the 2 wall lights in my living room on (via a single switch) one of them flashes on once for half a second and then they turn off. I've tried changing both E27 bulbs...

Hi.
I'm looking for a few 35mm 1G metal backboxes that have some 25mm knockouts on them.
I've had them in the past (Rexton brand ones) from Tradesparky I think, but Tradesparky can no longer source them. None of the sites for boxes specify the sizes of knockouts so it's difficult to tell.
I...

Anyone come up against a company called Project Solar.
They are selling this Evolution+10 panel which the salesman is saying will earn £5000 more than any "german panel"

I have been asked to quote for the above board change. Having read the COSHH guidance it doesn't appear to be anything that I can't handle. However, do I need to be licensed to undertake any work with asbestos and would I need to inform my 3rd party insurance providers.
I am aware that I...

If I hold the up-arrow and light keys down and plug in the charger...
