    Buzzer indications

    Your right of course, I've been riding for 50years but still on occasions I forget to cancel the indicators and during a bright day the tell tale light is almost useless on most bikes. The buzzers have arrived and tested on a 12volt battery, loud is how I'd describe them so tomorrow after my...

    Buzzer indications

    I have 4 motorcycles, well 3 actually one of them is my wife's 50cc Modena scooter how she rides it I really don't know as it does tops 35mph with a folllowing wind. But she can ride it without a CBT on her car licence 😄 I hate riding it as on straighter roads car drivers are constantly trying...

    Travelling the continent

    To be fair to EE and o2 we've never had much trouble with dropping out certainly nothing like as happens in the UK, as a matter of interest what provider do you use. The only time we have used a local sim was our first trip to Poland about 11 years ago on the advice of a Polish friend but found...

    Travelling the continent

    That's my point, that on the continent 3 & 4G signals are strong in nearly all parts or at least EE and o2 are strong, the necessity to use a public WiFi is almost not required but its there if needed, the majority not needing passwords. You also do not need to enter your address or email before...

    Travelling the continent

    Just had a Google melt down Phil, it would seem that it would not be viable in the UK financially, plus the size of the dish has to be larger than my Camos sat dish so would require another dish to carry round. 🙁. 🥵 It's 42c on my decking under the pergola

    Electrical Installation - a bit of market research .....

    Dave you are really in a niche market. Your idea of a conversion let's face it is all electric, that much is obvious with your really detailed and helpful posts on various electrical and electronic appliances. Agreed that if you want to be the market leader in all electric conversions/Coach...

    Travelling the continent

    Great idea Phil, I had thought about it but the expense is beyond me and Eileen's boss although he pays all phone and broadband expenses when we are home, Plus use abroad, I think he would definitely bulk at sat Internet prices. She's good at her job and has her finger on the pulse was the...

    Travelling the continent

    No we don't have WiFi range extender but in the UK you surely do need one, but the whole point of me retiring early and for Eileen to be part time Tues to Thursday was so we could travel around and not be stuck in a McDonald's car park or close by in some city area, we might just as well stay...

    Travelling the continent

    One of the things that really Ts me off about travelling around Britain is the 4G/5G situation, I've retired, I retired when I was sixty but my wife bless her was only 50 at the time, however she soon was able to work part time as PA to a property developer that she had been working for full...

    DAFF LF45 self built motorhome

    Do you find the size limits the amount of Aires that you can park up In? Or do you tend to wild camp while on the continent. Phil

    Chinese Diesel heaters

    A couple of weeks ago I foolishly said I'd fit one of these chinese diesel heaters into my sister in laws new to her Vito van, I looked on ebay and found a complete kit for the Princely sum of £79 having never fitted one or seen one come to that I had some trepidation in ordering it. It arrived...

    Electrical Installation - a bit of market research .....

    As I said I will be the first to congratulate you Dave and say I knew of that bloke. BUT if it's broke why have I not suffered over the last 30years of all these woes that you say are happening plus the fact that we in normal times travel the continent from France through to Greece and all...

    Electrical Installation - a bit of market research .....

    I'm a great believer in innovation Dave, I love new ways to do things that improve one's life. But and there is always a but, I am also a believer in "If its not broke, don't try and fix it". I can see that if you want to self build the latest all electrically run top of the range...

    I went back and re read your original post Dave don't think I mis understood what you were asking. But I think I understand this correctly 👌 "But am I just convincing myself of this? thoughts please?"

    Electrical Installation - a bit of market research .....

    I can't help but feel Dave that you asked for market research into an idea you have in your mind, you have asked a dedicated lot of self builders and answers that you have had do not seem to fit with your vision, or that we don't understand what your attempting. The trouble is that unless you...

    Electrical Installation - a bit of market research .....

    (If they can't work that out, they shouldn't be converting a van.) Precisely Dave, they will still sit and scratch their heads and come onto sites like this and ask questions, not a bad thing to do if you have no idea. As for the radio colour coding for fitted radios, vehicle manufacturers...
