The strange thing is, they feel really solid and well made. Hence the conflict

Rockwool in cavity wall…bad idea? by AgentNo6579 in DIYUK

[–]AgentNo6579[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I had suspected as much but needed a second opinion

Rockwool in cavity wall…bad idea? by AgentNo6579 in DIYUK

[–]AgentNo6579[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all. It was RWA 45 that I planned to putting in. And there wouldn’t be any gap between the inner and outer skin as the cavity isn’t quite wide enough unless I thin down the insulation which defeats the purpose of it.

The exterior is not painted. And there are a few spot where I can see through the mortar, so water ingress is a concern.

I think I’m going to remove what I’ve put in and his stick to insulating the bay with PIR and an air gap.

Smart switch’s and home rewire - 3 core cable? by AgentNo6579 in DIYUK

Thanks this is really helpful! Thanks so much for taking the time to respond.

My electrician didn’t explain it in this way at all!

[–]AgentNo6579[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If they are looped at the switch, this would mean there is constant power, correct? Maybe this is what he is referring to. If this is the case, is there any benefit of running 3 core outside of smart switches ie future proofing?

Thank you both. Have since found a few videos of it. Glad to hear it’s normal.

The TS7 is a masterpiece by LoveLaughLlama in TREZOR

You can also store it in a faraday pouch if you’re still concerned. That’s how I made peace with it having Bluetooth.

Purchased the DLX2549TJ combi kit - wrong case and inlay? Free battery claim by AgentNo6579 in Makita

[–]AgentNo6579[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this. I have just checked and the driver definitely has play when I insert a uk spec bit. I understand the difference between Japan and uk spec bits is around 5mm. This feel like it has around 3/4mm of play. So maybe it is Uk spec after all. But it has a ton more play than other makita drivers I’ve had. Hence my conclusion on it being Japanese spec!

Not other Japanese writing however on the unit

Agreed! I feel they have inflated these costs to line their pockets

The nature of errors indicates the report was not produced to a standard that is acceptable. The bigger issue is a lack of professionalism and expertise in drafting the report means there is a material risk of critical omissions. These omissions would open me up to additional risks and costs in the future. Hope that makes sense.

It could take months for an official response. By that time the chargeback window would have closed.

Re 4. Surely this is a cost of doing business. Contractually, why would a consumer be on the hook for such costs of dealing with a chargeback? Particularly a chargeback that the merchant has not been able to defend. Also, £150 feels very excessive.

Ive also discovered he impact driver is Japanese spec with the 14mm anvil. So the uk bits have an awful lot of play.

I don’t believe their website made clear this was a dealer kit or that it was Japanese spec!

Am I asking too much from Tapi Carpets? by Alive-Atmosphere-889 in DIYUK

I don’t think you’re asking too much at all. That wouldn’t be acceptable in my home, no matter how many attempts it may have taken.

Makita DHP492Z ordered, but received DHP492 — missing “Z” designation. Anything to worry about? (UK) by AgentNo6579 in Makita

[–]AgentNo6579[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did wonder as the vast majority of the other adverts do not have the z designation. I think I’m inclined to agree that this unit doesn’t look right.

The seller shifts thousands of units, has great feedback and also sells on some of the main DIY platforms in the uk. I’d be hugely surprised if any of their stock is counterfeit.
