  1. pity poundland don't stock em
  2. Not up north,but the name that always comes up when bugsys mentioned https://www.davidfitchservices.com/
  3. could ask your sparky if alternative protective devices are an option,rewirable fuses,bs88's or even type D MCB's
  4. maybe they got confused and used the power factor of the units to get the inrush,a pf of 0.6 isnt that unusual for smps,or maybe thought inrush and "at 110v" are the same thing
  5. Are the MCB's type B by any chance?
  6. wire the par cans on the output of an amp,just need something thats happy pumping a kilowatt into 60'ish ohms
  7. upside down ,on its side,inside out the dam things will still work,just keep the cable away from the hot bits and all will be good,get the wire too close to the hot bits and youll get a funny smell and eventually either a dark can or a big BANG can
  8. A ups type circuit will overcome that,when mains power is lost it switches to battery, one of the gpio's detects the loss of mains power and triggers the shutdown command.
  9. realy? even on stuff like woman in black?
  10. not cheap,but very reliable. https://www.ui.com/products/#default
  11. whilst the job center is trying to get anyone without a job to become self employed
  12. and for those,like me,who dont carry there phone around 24/7 ?
  13. How bigs your budget? 6 optima 5's and 2 -15" subs a side were more than enough for this place
  14. The short life span is no more with key kegs,the drink is in a plastic bag inside a plastic barrel,the air is pumped into the barrel compressing the bag forcing the drink out,no air can enter the bag so the drink stays fresh for much longer
  15. Hope your brewery dont use co2 to transfer the ale from the fermenter to cask,or us it to purge the air out of the casks before filling. There seems to be conflicting reports with some saying its only food grade co2 thats affected whilst others are saying its co2 in genral
  16. what no mention of collapsing ceilings causing cancer and killing lady Di.
  17. in days of old lithoplate was my weapon of choice
  18. How about a high speed change over switch.Something like an AD7512 with control from a simple 555 oscillator circuit running at a suitable high frequency. To avoid extra power supplies maybe pick up the supply from the coms.
