  1. Current switch as is...
  2. Don't like it when people say that.....
  3. Never understood why british standards don't have Live (i.e. powered as opposed to live to light ) marked on the cable. Lots of Pocster's have probably died attempting such things.
  4. I'm still confused on the no neutral thing (I didn't realise this switch didn't need a neutral ). With no neutral and the switch off it won't be powered and therefore surely can't report or be controlled via Zigbee? But if neutral is connected ( where too? ) then it is 'powered' and so acts like a smart switch correctly? No understand. Switch is neutral free. Destructions show neutral connected to squiggle ( why a squiggle?; what's it meant to represent - not seen that before ). - confusion hate electrics - so dangerous.. I might send it back
  5. I don't mind it not working if I get it round the wrong way. But will something go bang and I shit myself?
  6. Ok . So squiggle is L out . If I get them round the wrong way ; what will happen ? 🙄. Do I test each L against the neutral to determine which is which ? ( out of my limited knowledge depth here ) . edit: with power off !
  7. Sorry; what I meant is current switch is a simple affair i.e. 2 brown lives that complete in the switch - there is a neutral but it's not used. This new switch has a L but also a P and "squiggle" symbol. So which of those is L out? ; think that's what I'm asking.
  8. Right P must be power. So no neutral required , erm.... yeah I'll try that. Live to P and L ThinkI'll wait for advice!
  9. These bloody ‘smart’ switches ! So the dumb switch currently installed just has 2 lives . I *assume* this new switch doesn’t need neutral ? ( but diagram suggests it does ) So where do I put the other live ? . In the neutral slot or P ? ( what’s P refer to ? , why’s neutral not got a nice N on it )
  10. I believe hob isn’t , extractor is . This I will argue when I do my vat reclaim 

  11. Sleeping with your DNO doesn’t get you any favours either ( so my friend told me ) .
  12. To help you find my stand I’ve hired some publicity help .
  13. Ffs ! Saving pennies ! . Buy the proper Hep2o ones . Divorce will cost you more than ” best bargain from China , much goodness , best quality , not rubbish , you pay now ? , my sister waiting also , much goodness , she cheap also , what you want now ? “
  14. Out of interest what is it if not ptfe ?
  15. I was more thinking that my stand could be to help all those deluded self builders whom will delay / procrastinate over their build . I’ll bring lots of biscuits and comfy chairs . They can sit there and tell me how pathetic they are as on lookers clap and chant abuse .
  16. Limescale is the issue . Don’t want to log nice LG F/F with it .
  17. I will give it a good tug ; I like it rough so no issues there .
  18. That’s for later when the clan arrive đŸ’Ș
  19. I’m sure I tried that inbetween swearing . But will try again 
.
  20. This what I want ? No idea of my pipe size ( not rude ) - I know THAT bad boy is extra mo fo large
  21. I hate these . Fridge freezer has 1 inlet from mains tap to filter then into F/F . Wish F/F was Hep2o đŸ€Ł Anyway . When I have to replace the filter - for the love of god I can’t get the ptfe pipe off either end - so I cut the filter out . Clearly , one day I’m going to run out of pipe ! What I *really* want is ptfe to ‘magic fixing’ to ptfe . Then I can remove ptfe pipe after the magic fixing into the filter . I.e I can cut the filter out as many times as I need - just replace ptfe pipe after magic fixing . All makes (expletive deleted) all sense ; yes ?
  22. Christ ! Basement feasibility seems like an expensive game from when I did it !
