Good Old Delroy, he gets all the best Jobs :)

I gracefully disagree , I have watched most of my videos as I can't see much wrong with any of his workmanship

He is neat , tidy and often takes on awkward jobs that aren't easy to make look perfect

He could things faster sometimes but at 65? he does okay imo and I love the way he talks through what he is doing and explains why he is doing it that way

He's 65? Wow he's aged well, thought he was about 50.

I like bundy and dss, anyone else that you would recommend?

Residual Current is ?

I watched a couple of Delroy's videos he's definitely old school... Seems like a good bloke but would probably benefit from some newer methods.

I think this is the very fact why most don't like him, all the newer generation, nothing wrong with old school methods .
His name is Delroy

Thanks for the correction ?

Are his 'ways' really that ole fashioned ?

Most of what he does he learned in the 70s and 80s

I learned similar ways in the 90s

The only thing to change is some of the tools we have now like wall chasers

I really don't know what you lot are doing,wasting all them hours on Youtube,watching all them amateurs....

There is one,and only one dude on Youtube,and as we all know,it's Taryl Fixes All.

Now then,there's your dinner ?

I suppose equipment and methods have advanced massively

Speed of thought and implementation of various methodologies available are key

You see it here all the time, there's a faster and better way of doing every job now if you know what it is and have the right equipment and materials

I thought it was apparent that he didn't use his mft that much. I don't think many people would have his tolerance for these knackered systems or would want to take the responsibility. I get that customers don't want to spend money though and he needs to provide what the clients want.

I've only watched a relatively small number of Delroy's videos and, oddly enough, his MFT appeared in most of those.

5 min 42 sec mark , what is that I spy...

I have only seen a couple so I might have the wrong end of the stick. He used a voltage tester a lot on one and didn't seem that confident on another. Personally I prefer to conduct tests and identify the fault before taking things apart incase I accidentally cure the problem when all the wires pop out and end up guessing. It also might be the way it's edited and it's all easier as an outsider.

I picked up on that too, he was using a voltage tester checking earths at outlets

Tells you nothing about the fault loop

 

[Mikegh]

Where he earthed the socket outlet( in the first video about 6mins) and left the rest of the circuit unearthed was a shocker

 

[Petej999]

Doesn't instill much in the way of confidence.

Also when he uses the MFT he reads like 6,7 that's cool no indication of what unit it is reading.
