Once found £7k in used notes in an envelope under a floorboard, marked '7K - 2004'. He said he had no idea it was there...

Be 4 by the time this next gets properly added to...

Yes AFAIK its not a true LCD, just an 'interpretation' of legacy LED signals. Agreed cut off cores may indicate previous issues / breakdown.

Just a joke re: the OP

Traditionally though scantronic used 'fsl' for the double resistor and 'eol' for the single on those very early 9000 series panels that supported it, iirc.

Nah just checked its "La Corona"

I had a faulty D75 multi out of the box the other day, permanently o/c I was going to send it back to you, but not sure where it is now, kept it specially...

^ yep as I say great for noobs Adi ;-)

Mine are RS and at least 10 years old but marked 'made in Sweden' so assume cost a lot of money at one time... Pretty much all my major tools are EU made, Wera tools are great for screwdrivers, security bits and mini wrenches. All my live working stuff is that French made orange covered brand who's name I forget. My Dad still has a set of CK drivers still in good nick so old they are stamped 'West German Made' My 'emergency plumbing f**kups' bag has a nice 30 year+ old bahco water pump plier!

Yank brand (Platt) case, absolutely bulletproof. Use Plano soft cases for lesser used 'kits', i.e phone and data wiring stuff in one, insulated 240v orange tools in another, etc... Since Kwiksave closed I guess?

The thing is the plug-in ones BT supply with the HH5 kits are the cheapest and nastiest I've ever seen! A few years ago I was given a sample of a very nicely produced Fujitsu UK-made plug in filter, they must have been trying to impress BT for a bulk order, as I never saw them ever again or for sale etc... although if you google 'Fujitsu Microfilter' on ebay used ones can be found. Interesting 'cut-down' pics page - http://www.adslnation.com/support/filters.php

Yes, a faceplate change is a million times better for you and the customer, EXCEPT when they have the hub or similar upstairs on an extension.... Although if they have 6 core running up there already I've never, ever had an issue with making the green pair, for example, DSL only from the unfiltered block on the plate. I then change the affected socket for a double euro with one BT on the blue/orange pair and one RJ11 for the modem only on the green etc... To be honest not had to do it for ages though with WW and 3G type comms. Yes, I think it's intentional. As you say most will just see an increase and be happy, even if it could be even better, they'll never know. In dire cases they'll phone BT but if it saves 3 out of 4 home visits they're laughing. Here we go, it's official, Infinity self install, even mentions 'if you DO already have a 'double socket', 'otherwise use plug in filters...' http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/47225/~/help-with-setting-up-bt-infinity-yourself

To be fair if I inherited a house with an Optima I'd be 'linking it out' via the skip...

I've seen BT do all sorts, isn't engineer installation over now as they've proven 'acceptable' performance on self install plug in filters? When we got upgraded here at the new house, we had to wait for the guy to do the gubbins outdoors at the cabinet, but no appointment in the house. We were send a HH5 with plug in filters... Of course I've fitted a mk 3 faceplate, but if I hadn't we would have had infinity on a 1980s linebox and plug ins... suspect they just wing it now, hoping that only 1 in 4 will have to call in an engineer to the house itself...

Some Gardtecs had bell chirp as well as strobe as a feature, iirc. But as above will almost certainly require professional attention. What alarm do you have OP?

Hi, welcome

AFAIK ComWifi should do push, but not sure if you need to make sure the panel has the absolute latest firmware for that.

Just to be clear to the OP it's the same if you're Ltd but with only one person

Class

In which case I won't share my story.

Is this section trade only?

Had to call the helpline a few times, turned out I was fitting it at the wrong house, was trying to force the transformer plug into a light bulb socket, and was spending more than 5 minutes on each job... ...They are moving me up to Platinum Installer Level on Monday!

5 star...

There are two black yale ones near us, I think this denotes 'pro' installation...

Welcome!
