  1. So I’m going to use a standard phone charger to a usb step down I.e to 3v . Wire it into a zigbee door sensor . Then wire dry contacts from reed switch to alarm panel . This should get reliable HA in event of the alarm . Its just the pressure sensor - might take a punt .
  2. The saniflo has a pressure switch . You drill a hole in the top of the saniflo , place a plastic tube it it . The saniflo then sits ontop the unit with the pressure switch in the head of the tube .
  3. Maybe this alarm box ? https://www.tritoncontrols.co.uk/alarms-and-controls/basic-alarm-easyfit.html?ppc_keyword=&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=12120096619&gbraid=0AAAAACdOt02h4JZ2Q8Pdc71YfcucXK6V4&gclid=CjwKCAjw1dLDBhBoEiwAQNRiQThOWqB0p_yPqPWb-ZbaDP_56QCHJGeU_7bjHp0DB25wdPJVVM12UBoC-98QAvD_BwE But a suitable pressure sensor switch seems to be a bit of a minefield of possibilities
  4. So this crap battery powered high water alarm worries me . Just tested it , batteries apparently flat even though replaced only 3 weeks ago . Not much faith in this . Could be flat and I wouldn’t know until kitchen flooded So want a pressure switch that links to a mains powered but battery backup unit . Unit has a light to indicate it’s actually on and also possibility to trigger a zigbee relay so can notify HA Most of these alarms operate on a float which I don’t want . Pressure switches seem to be industrial or maybe a washing machine type pressure switch ??? Any solid suggestions on a pressure switch , alarm box that will work together suitably appreciated
  5. @Claire O no potential access via neighbor gardens ? Assuming they’d allow it of course . Maybe reimburse for the hassle …
  6. True . Could put osb down I.e make a nice path for it protecting the floor . More of an issue would be any turns required and indeed how narrow passages are …
  7. Maybe ? Literally last week saw something like this . The guy was able to stand on a platform at the back and the bucket could be raised to empty into a skip . Depends on width and what turning space you need to get through your house .
  8. I find ice cold beer also helps .
  9. (expletive deleted) that ! . A digger would rip that up very quickly . It’s the labour of moving it all through the house . You and SWMBO make a great team 😊
  10. I’d say doable with lots of labour . Thick plastic sheets down then wheelbarrows through
  11. This is something I didn’t consider at the time - as there was no perceived need . Now though I would suggest it . Like everyone our ‘ground floor’ gets very hot especially as lots of glass facing south . Below ground always 3 degrees cooler . I just put fans in bedrooms - appreciate they don’t cool the air - but it’s acceptable. If these type of summers persist then simply portable ac in each room ( not the true vented ones though )
  12. You’re not scouring my sausage again!
  13. Buy one . Plug in your hot and cold dildos - see what happens
  14. What kind of bollock answer is that ! I simply took time to look at the instructions for you
