  1. The best known brand name of the expandable braided sleeving is 'pliosil'
  2. Probably easiest to assume that extending radio aerials down the multi is a non-starter. The rest of your conundrum is typically (cost effectively!) achieved by taping a mains cable to an XLR loom, although hybrid cables with mains and one or occasionally two XLR lines are available by the metre or pre-assembled. I say 'XLR' - Cable designed for AES (digital audio) is also suitable for DMX and analogue audio. Cable designed for DMX is also suitable for analogue audio. Cable designed for analogue audio is technically unsuitable for DMX, although those of us doing small scale, simple or amateur productions have probably used it anyway for years and generally not had any trouble. https://www.vdctrading.com/shop/Van+Damme+Cable/Hybrid+Cables https://www.thomann.de/gb/the_sssnake_dms_222_50_cat_multicore.htm
  3. the JTS GM-5218 is a similar design but a bit cheaper and shorter, it is supercardioid
  4. When was your micrometer last calibrated? 🤣
  5. Not sure why I didn't see this thread before, but a definite yes. (I've tried to call 'PAT' 'appliance testing' for several years, even before the 5th CoP came out) For me a mechanical timer would include a visual (including does it rattle - has anything broken inside), followed by earth continuity, polarity and basic functionality. A full test of functionality - determining whether it actually takes about 24 hours to rotate is generally outside the scope of the testing I undertake 🤣 I think I have previously failed an old one with removable tappets as they were all missing and it was therefore not functional as a timer

    Chevin Amp Repair

    Whilst there are brand specialists and service centres, I suspect there will be someone within an hour's drive of most of the UK who has the relevant diagrams and is used to repairing amplifiers of different makes

  8. I'll probably try a couple on a spare 20 year old Anytronics wallpack
  9. Has anyone used these 'dimmable' LED floods? https://www.lyco.co.uk/pro-50w-dimmable-warm-white-led-floodlight-black.html (I'm looking for a slightly different application- medium term fix for a church currently lit (internally!) by 2000k 70W SON lamps)
  10. Just found these, no idea what they're like https://www.zoro.co.uk/shop/fasteners/wing-screw/m10x70-wing-screw-round-cast-iron-bzp/p/ZT1391181X
  11. For a cheap lectern mic, a JTS GM-5212 or it's tbone cousin are reasonable. Come without clip though. Or used MX412 or MX418 if you can find them
  12. Bizarrely that model number rings a bell... just found documents from thirteen years ago, with a paper I wrote for a church: Receiver: TOA WT-4810 D02 - Back panel 13-18V DC 250mA, Manual 12V DC 130mA, Polarity and size not stated Beltpack Transmitter: TOA WM-4310 D02 Frequencies: 0 - 854.900 1 - 855.275 2 - 855.900 3 - 856.175 4 - 856.575 5 - 857.625 6 - 857.950 7 - 858.200 8 - 858.650 9 - 860.400 A - 860.900 B - 861.550 C - 863.375 D - 863.925 E - 864.375 F - 864.725
  13. I bought some 12V Sylvania LED MR11's intended for domestic use (AC as far as I could tell) and they worked just fine in a motorhome (from the 12V battery)
