I damaged my bathroom celing light, when I took out the 2D lamp, so I have had to replace it - and all is working.

Customer has bought a shed load of decorative led lamps, thing is they're all E27, and they currently have standard roses with BC fittings.
Where can I get the E27 fittings, so I can discard the BC and replace with E27?

Hi
I made an ebay fan purchase fairly recently. I ordered what I thought was a MF100T, but was sent a Steeple SMF100T. It appears to be identical, was sent with the MF100T instructions, and has Manrose on the sticker. After a bit of internet research I've found out steeple is a Denman's own...

The customer has been told that i was...
Hi guys,

Hi,
Does anyone know of a good looking Dali plug and socket (similar to a Klik/Rock Rose), it seems to me that all the companies that produce Dali based outlets, go out of their way to make these things butt ugly. I ask because we are on a job that has a particularly fussy architect (nothing new...
Does anyone else think that it's a bit far fetched to believe a probe launched 10 years ago, with possibly even older technology can be shot through space 300 million miles, then somehow 'landed and operated' on a gravity free rock hurtling through space?

Hello all,
House is 22 years old. Wiring probably not done brilliantly to start. This is the second ceiling light in a small room I use as an office. Was child's bedroom and I cannot state 100% if this light ever worked.
