Kevin & Perry soundtrack soon to be back on the iPhone to blast through the speakers. 18 til I die. ;) 

 

And of course....

I do need to decide on the first track I'll put through the Bluetooth speakers when the bathroom's done and I'm lying in the bath with a tall beer.

 

Strobe by Deadmau5 probably, 10 and a half minutes of relaxation. Long intro then it builds into a bangin' choon. I like listening to it on my own in a darkened room with a drink in hand.

I need to decide where to position these two 165mm dia Bluetooth speakers. Currently thinking either side of the downlights as shown. YES the ceiling joists though parallel to each other and set at 400mm ctrs are set askew to the squared off, studded walls!

I also need to think about MVHR vents in the ceiling, how big and where, one or two? Originally I was going to fit a wall mounted single room Ventaxia but boy are they ugly. @jackmentioned another brand a short while ago I'm sure, German maybe? It looked neat and was wall mounted. If I fit in the ceiling then single room for now but expandable later is what I'm thinking ref the MVHR.

You can buy an MVHR core for about £150 that just needs fans adding. You could use that as the basis for a home built MVHR that you can expand over time. 

 

Point me at one when you get 5 please.

Nasty, rainy day so fiddling about!

 

25mm galv conduits in for the pocket lights. MORE vcl penetrations! :(

They'll go into 50mm galv trunking across the joists which will keep them safe from Roland/Tufty:

Did these now as the galv trunking will have to go in THEN the new soil pipe run to the right:

The plug on the leads fits up nicely: Should make replacing them a breeze. (I've actually just ordered a second set of the blue lights I'm using):

One (132mm dia) Bluetooth speaker hole cut. The other one is above the bath so I'm leaving that until I'm a) sober & b) have protected the bath!

The play list tonight included:

 

Michael Mind Project - Anti Heroes

Christina Novelli - Concrete Angel

Linkin Park - Feint

Flip & Full -Shooting Star

Nadia Ali - Rapture

Deadmau5 etc

 

Interesting how the foil on the PIR blocks the Bluetooth. You have to be in the bathroom with the phone.

This then I assume is no good to incorporate in a home brew MVHR?

Edit: Way off I think. First time delving into Part F it says something on the lines of 29 l/s for a 5 bed house. This unit I think is 180 l/s !!!

How do you actually watch the tv though ?

You’ve got this rainforest shower head going up and down pouring over you ....

Or once done showering ; do you turn it off and just stand in the cubicle watching the tv ? ?
