Given that they're at least 11 years old I feel you might not get very far- so that you can bear in mind the cost of a similar replacement, at church we just bought an Epson EB-X41 (3600lm, 1024x768). We already had the same in another room; great portable projector if HD and widescreen aren't important. £330 presently

about 10 times as long as you asked for, but eBay and various other places have 15cm goosenecks for about £4 each

Both BCS and SSE (Sigma FLight) make these custom to spec. Give their respective sales depts a call.

Southby Productions in High Wycombe have a clearsonic drum booth in hire stock

For distribution board labelling in the past couple of years I've been using a Brother PT-E300VP with their strong adhesive black on white tape. Available in various widths; I find 18 and 6mm most useful. There's a great function 'patch bay labelling' which spaces out continuous labels, eg for a fuse box every 18mm. You select length to the nearest mm

length; colour of cable/lampholder; required lumens will affect what you need.
If they can have 1.5m white cable and will have shades, these probably represent a good value starting point https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/hemma-triple-cord-set-white-10325659/

Useful to know about the battery... our church has had a clone of this desk 3-4 years and I'm not far off opening it up to substitute a reliable power connector. I guess it's worth doing whilst I have it on the bench

I used to use CPC's figure-of-8 twin Cat5E UTP cable; often for AV installs https://cpc.farnell.com/pro-power/pp7112/cat-5e-utp-figure-8-305m/dp/CB14478 It was neat for surface wiring with white clips designed for 1.5mm tw1n&e4rth cable and saved pulling in two runs. Also was available in 100m drums which saved me holding excess stock. Seems to have been discontinued now and wondered if anyone here knew of anyone else that supplies a similar cable product. Thanks

Looks a useful addition to the toolbox - if you can get your head round the labelling!!
That's to distract you from the fact it's a copy of the EMO stereo DI. Can't believe they even ripped off the design flaw - those switches

The forums own MarkPAMan works for SFL who may also be able to assist.
Are you thinking of Mark Payne, username 'Mark Payne'? I believe he stepped back from the running of the company last year. SFL are capable, knowledgeable and Reading based

The Behringer B205D, Mackie SRM150, Studiomaster Livesys5 etc. come with an adaptor to put the speaker on the top of a straight mic stand, and another to put the mic stand boom on top of the speaker

Have heard them/similar called a 'panel key'

Only yesterday I came across a Homebase closing down sale with dozens of packs of six 300lm Halogen 40W GU10's for less than £2 a pack. Anybody who wants some getting, let me know... https://drive.google.com/open?id=10AN-hAxCXNwjdipR9jiZSolhk9ej7Ute

Smaller Ceeform style plugs, connectors and splitters (I'm primarily talking about 16a single phase). Because I frequently find them just too big and ugly.
And that is surely what Neutrik were thinking when they invented the true1

Sorry when I dug them out I found they were 70V. picture

I think I have a couple of 48V wall warts somewhere if they're any use

For ratchet strapping these things down are marquee pegs & a lump hammer the best option? Or are those screw in anchors worthwhile?
I used to site manage a kids camp atop a cliff 100 yards from the north sea. For small lightweight structures we had far more success with ratchet straps and 18" dog corkscrews than 2' marquee stakes. Whether that's dependent on ground type I'm not sure. The corkscrews take longer to put in the ground, on the flip side they reduce transport weight a lot

Brilliant, thanks John

A much cheaper connector, also available from CPC, could be used - and then you could use a PSU intended for a small Phonic or Behringer mixer, many of which use the matching connector and the same AC voltages.
If you are wiring this yourself, connect 0 volt to the centre of the 3 pins (pin 2). The wiring colours inside the mixer should make the required connections obvious.
Slight aside...
Are the above connectors compatible with Yamaha MG series? I've been needing to replace connectors on two for a while due to the cord grips having lost a screw

As far as I know, there's no way of calculating the mains power drawn unless you know the precise efficiency of the amplifier. Best thing I can think of is for you to get one of those plug in Power Meters (eg http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=223573) and try it out on mains. Alternatively, just read the amp's manual or rating plate which will allow you to have a conservative figure of the total power drawn, amp at full whack.
