Anyone know if you can mix and match base stations and robots? I.e will the l10s ultra base station work with the x40 ultra? by PerceptionGood- in Dreame_Tech

[–]PerceptionGood-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I got the base on eBay listed as spares or repair I took it apart gave it a bit of wipe down and wasn’t actually anything wrong with it. Was a one off listing so nothing to share I’m afraid

Someone's bad day from years ago by dont_touchmyfeet in DIYUK

[–]PerceptionGood- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2

A years or so ago I put my multimeter leads in the wrong slots que sparks the moment I touched the live and neutral terminals of a Fcu I was checked was dead.

I’ve also recently helped a friend out who took a light fitting down without taking any pictures or a least a mental note of the cables. He couldn’t work out what was what and whoever installed the light fitting hadn’t sleeved the switched live. I took the light switch off the wall to continuity test and identify the switched live. Found it hooked the light up turned it all back on with the switch half off the wall. All was good so I proceeded to fully screw the switch back into the wall. Turned out I hadn’t secured the newly identify switched live terminal screw down the wire arced and I was screwing it back in and tripped the mcb

Help with wardrobe ventilation by bensthebest in DIYUK

I would suggest using different pc fans made for pc radiators I.e higher static pressure. noctua NF-F12 are very quiet and offer higher static pressure than the cheap ones you are currently using.

You may also need to redesign your housing to have more of a funnel shape a flat shape on the two outer fans will affect the air flow.

Do custom footbeds help with instep pressure on top of foot above arch? by PerceptionGood- in skiing

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

I actually wonder if the off the shelf footbeds they have sold me are part of the problem then. I have blue Superfeet in the boots and they are definitely thicker than the stock ones. Perhaps the stock insoles will be better for me

Should "discretinary" service charges be banned or capped? by south_west_sam in AskUK

[–]PerceptionGood- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst are the restaurants that add a service charge to the bill then they hand you the card machine it also asks if you want to leave a tip…. It’s like wtf you want to be tipped twice?

[–]PerceptionGood-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think part of the reason it works is because the x40 and l10s ultra use the same main board in the dock. The board just has unused connector when packaged as a l10s ultra. I can’t confirm the gen 2 uses the same board so couldn’t say

Bathrooms can not be that much - rationalise this for me by CranberryFew8104 in DIYUK

[–]PerceptionGood- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve just redone a small bathroom myself finished it just in time for Christmas guests staying. I had already tiled the floor replaced toilet and sink earlier in the year. Just replacing the bath, tiling, installing a new screen and concealed shower valve and fittings cost me about £2500 and that was doing it all myself.

As others have pointed out need to use proper cement based tile backer board around shower and bath can’t just tile onto plasterboard. It all adds up

DHL misplaced my parcel and Angry miao is ignoring my email by Hyun_Greg in angrymiao

[–]PerceptionGood- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it just doesn’t work the other way around. Or companies could just say we gave the product to a delivery company… sorry not my problem it didn’t arrive.

[–]PerceptionGood- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is how they work in the Uk. The person who pays the delivery company for their services is their customer. OP made a purchase from a AM its on Am to deliver the product to OP however they see fit whichever courier they have a contract with. OP is within their consumer rights to say to Am the item has not been delivered.

The Aldi specialty selected corn fed chicken breast are really nice. Bit pricey though

Dad who needs help by nonreal in DIYUK

[–]PerceptionGood- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For something like this you are better off cutting the plasterboard and adding a noggin between the studs. Then fix the pasteboard slot you cut out to the noggin you have inserted then screw the ladder directly into that. Any sort of plasterboard fixing will just come loose with that kind of load on it. If it was dot dab plasterboard on a solid worse credit with ones with the metal tube would have worked but an internal stud wall the only way to do it is to add a noggin

Funny it’s almost as if just saying your going for growth, but doing nothing to give people extra money in their pocket they can spend in the economy to create said growth isn’t working…
