I read this also , and I still didn’t give a (expletive deleted)

Maybe but I like it this way . I always check it is sold by Amazon I.e 28 day no quibble returns policy exists . Also in this case it may be tricky to prove cheaper as the replacement is coming from China …

I’m bored today as men here fixing stairs again so I’m out the way doing nothing . The awol ltv3500 pro is awesome - I don’t feel the need to adjust the image depending on content ( with nexigo you kind of did ) . Bought from Amazon . Found it a better price , so will order that and return the other back to Amazon 😊 Picture without any blinds and in daylight is watchable as a tv but obviously not as bright . Add an ALR screen and a motorised blackout blind all linked to HA and it is pretty awesome ! . Gaming is especially intense at 120” . I would go larger ( believe a guy in us stuck it on a 340” screen ! ) - but then I’d have to build a bigger house !!

My bco came out about a year ago to look at my staircase ( a pointless excercise ) . He said they had never received a soil sample report ! . I sent it 11 yrs ago and made sure I kept the email thread from a previous bco accepting it . Sent that to new bco - never replied ( believe they are meant to have 5 weeks to respond ? ) . Planning and bc are a joke . Record all conversations ( assume you ever get a face to face ) . Keep copies of everything as they’ll deny you did it . They are useless twats .

Happy with that grade

I sometimes get this . I just caulk over it again and deliberately don’t paint it .

Rigid vs Semi-Rigid

I always go rigid -
I won’t test the supposed 116kg limit !!

Funny isn’t it . It’s only 4 screws - but so much that can go wrong !
-
No books are going on it ! 🤣 Well ! What’s behind it … The unit is in 2 halves each with 2 keyhole fittings . I can certainly get 1 into stud work but not the other ….
-
Googles not giving me anything . Clearly the rest of the human race mount these things mm perfect …. A cardboard template probably my best bet
-
Yeah - that’s do able . Been googling for an adjustable fitting . The problem with the screw in the wall ( especially through plasterboard ) is if I need to move it a few mm in any direction . I’ve created a solution with my adjustable fitting for my problem !
-
SWMBO ( ffs ) has ordered a wall mounted bookcase . It’s got these key hole fittings . Now I know ; no matter how hard I try to line these up exactly I’ve got no chance of getting it spot on . Is there a small wall fitting ( which would be hidden by the unit ) you mount but the sticking out ‘screw’ head can be adjusted in all dimensions ? . Maybe with a grub screw or small Allen key ….

I’m on it ! Don’t remember any planning regs against nuclear reactors
-
If I had enough land I’d panel every inch of the ground . Install a wind turbine everywhere . Probably invest in a small nuclear reactor also .
-
I agree . But it’s relative to number of installs . So you would expect “ pv related fires” to increase relatively. Imho I’d be more concerned about existing house wiring failing / pipe bursting or a Shelly melting ( I’ve read enough of the Shelly got hot and melted stories that I removed them - I had one ‘over heat ‘ and the lights weren’t even on …. 🥺 )
