    Hi, So I ended up with a Ring video wired doorbell instead of a Byron video wired doorbell as B&Q were out of stock (had ordered online) and they gave the Ring one at no extra cost (nice of them). Not what I was after but will have to make and do. I don't really want to fork out and buy the...

    USA Linesman video - temporary supply

    Celebrity Electrician Nick bundy latest video

    Some interesting content in this vid Would you go back and swap the 2 conduits for trunking due to magnetic flux ? Would you reveal your prices on social media ? (Imo his price for the board change and various things like new down lights was incredibly cheap)

    Rather interesting fault finding video

    It's nice to see a real world fault-finding video that at least aims to follow a logical process. As we occasionally get posts about how to fault find I thought I'd share it. It's also realistic that there a few head scratcher moments where nothing quite makes sense, and the value of keeping...
