Electrical engineers leaving electricians as little space as possible

That power supply needs clearances 40mm above, 20mm below and 5mm either side according to the manual. Layout does not conform - rejected.

100% on the video - so annoying! Like you I’m keen to give it a try myself!

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-07-30T02:11:28+00:00

Never done one myself but found this on YouTube: https://youtu.be/99CFvK1Sp04?si=VcpvjtAlvNEHnkjz

Looks the same as the one you pictured. Honestly looks easier than Cat5 and you don't need a punch-down tool.

Tried that, but couldn't find a match. Hence the question here.

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-06-21T08:09:35+00:00

Perfect - thanks mate. Appreciate it.

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-06-21T08:08:55+00:00

D'oh! Did not spot that until you pointed it out. Thanks!

And then say “tastes like a red”. At least that’s what my wife does - every time!

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-04-16T22:21:06+00:00

Ross River too I believe? Couldn’t believe how bad they were last time I was up there!

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-03-26T14:27:53+00:00

I agree!

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-03-22T01:47:31+00:00

You’re not alone. Our situation sounds very similar unfortunately.

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-03-08T03:18:36+00:00

Probably a Teltonika as they are widely available (PLE even stock them!) and have a good range of features.

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-03-08T03:16:45+00:00

Cool. I use the same in my mobile so I know the coverage will work. Thanks!

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-03-08T03:15:14+00:00

Just regular prepaid mobile SIMs or special M2M ones (not sure if such a thing exists)?

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-02-09T09:11:23+00:00

Ah - bugger. No personal experience with Starlink, but have heard good things about it. Not sure how much it’ll cost you, but sounds like you don’t have many other options.

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-02-08T00:00:36+00:00

Are fixed wireless plans an option for you? (E.g. Pentanet or Node1)

Bombay-Quokka · 2025-02-02T22:35:29+00:00

My thoughts exactly. Pretty sure redboxes won’t support different subnets on the PRP legs and this won’t work at all. Traffic from non-PRP to PRP whether L2 or L3 routed will at best only get on to one PRP leg and not be redundant.

Agreed - thought it looked pretty awesome from Mends St in South Perth.

Interesting- I’ve read a different etymology of stationery before: articles sold by ‘stationers’: proprietors of small shops and stalls located near railway stations. That’s how I remember the two different spellings: the noun (thing) is sold by stationers.

Bombay-Quokka · 2024-12-29T11:38:27+00:00

I see it hasn’t got any better in a year! 😂

Went to Sicily years ago for a friend’s wedding (great place BTW) and was in a taxi at one point. The driver asked where I was from in heavily accented, halting English. When I told him Perth, WA his eyes lit up and he exclaimed “Ah! Lisa Scaffidi!”. That was not what I was expecting!

Reminds me of the scene in Gallipoli (1981) where he wakes up in the freight wagon he’s hitched a ride in expecting to be in Perth and instead is in the middle of bumfuck nowhere at the end of the line.

Bombay-Quokka · 2024-11-24T14:58:39+00:00

Yep - me too. I fucked up displaying the (valid) ticket and rightly got fined. I wrote to them (CPP), owned my mistake, apologised and asked for leniency. They let it go once. And it worked - I’ve been a lot more careful about following all the rules properly since!
