got a phone call from my brother at about 1.30pm to say his immersion timer had caught fire and completely melted.
I thought he was exaggerating so popped round to take a look.
And yep it had completely melted into a big ball of moulded black sticky plastic...:eek:
This timer was fitted when he...

Hi,
I have an electric towel rail with a Kudox heating element controller.
Would it be possible to add a timer to the setup?
I’ve looked at similar sized timer devices to replace the current controller but they don’t have the heating temp control so assume it would just be on or off in terms...

I need to install a timer circuit to activate a solenoid valve so it operates for 2 minutes every hour.

It was the front bedroom so best guess is they had it to give...

Hello all,
I hope you might be able to help me solve an issue.
I rent a flat with storage heaters and E7. The Timer Switch for the cheap periods has never worked, so in the past I've just had to move the sliders manually to use the heaters, but now even that doesn't work, as some electrical...

They would like a timer fitted which enables the fan to come on for 10 minuets every hour.

Anyone got Any ideas?

Hi all,
It seems to be normal practice to mount electric timers outside the bathroom, but so long as its outside zone 2 a towel rail timer can be inside the bathroom? I'd rather have it inside the bathroom than visible in the hall.
We're planning to have the towel rail less than 60cm...
Hi all, I’m currently doing a bathroom re-furb and i’ve installed a dual fuel heated towel rad. It’s fed via an FCU outside the room which then currently goes to a kudox controller just underneath the rad, both of which are zone 2.
The client has just asked how to use the controller and I’ve...
