i'd rather be installing a sewage pump.

As opposed to watching sewage!

I love it!

A friend gave me these today, and I'm happy!
Struggling to buy a replacement 15V battery for the AVO...everywhere that lists them seems to be out of stock, but I'll persevere.

 

[telectrix]

I'm sure there are battery eliminates for the 15v battery. If it's the same one as the Avo 8.

Mind you I've had several pints and a couple of cocktails so I may not be the voice of reason.

I can recommend Jolly collier porter. Very smooth.

Four LiIon batteries at 3.6 should be close enough.

Thanks all for your suggestions. The one you linked to Tel is a square battery, for the earlier Avo, mine needs the cylindrical one, but i see that ebay seller has them too. I try to buy from battery specialists as they have fresh stock, and I've had mixed results with ebay items. However, all my usual shops are out of stock so i'll give that seller a try. The battery is very cheap though...

 

[telectrix]

the square one I put in my AVO has been in for 3 years, no problems.

Good to know, Tel...thanks! Mine is the squared-off cylindrical version with 2 sticky-out terminals. I have ordered one and will report back!

Re. The Eurovision Song Contest.

pfffft last again!

well, not quite. As one of the big five, the UK get into the final automatically and don’t need to enter a semifinal.... we came 26th out of 39....


for anyone thinking why do we bother?
England hasn’t won the World Cup football since ‘66, but they keep on entering that.
