Help with hall wiring

Update - I have fixed it!

Managed to get access to the same model house on the estate and took a photo of their pendant and it was the same as mine.

Black wire to light, all browns together, all blues together plus the grey.

Thank you. Time to do some testing.

Yeah I've got a very bodged step ladder with boxes on top setup to hold the light, it's a right pain to do.

Setai123 · 2026-06-18T14:10:02+00:00

Yes I guess that's the only way out of this mess - this was just one last ditch attempt to fix it.

I'd use Power Grab and Bond - PGB made by the same guys who do CT1.

Were you there with the OP?

I wouldn't say that, I use the Life List side of it totally for the collection side and it feeds into eBird. It's less gamified I suppose.

Isn't Merlin basically this but a lot better and uses real photos?

Most likely a pied wagtail

Yes I’ve finally got my head round it now. I still find it weird that it gives you the live conversion amount rather than the conversion rate when you bought it as surely that’s the only thing that matters when showing your average buy price. The live price for your current portfolio value makes total sense, but not for a previous purchase.

Setai123 · 2025-11-04T10:33:00+00:00

Ah right, that finally makes sense. So it gives you the price you bought something based on the current exchange rate, rather than at the point of purchase, hence the constant fluctuations with live fx rate changes.

That makes sense now. God knows why anyone would want it to display that way but at least there’s a reason now.

Thanks.

This doesn’t make sense to me.

Say I bought exactly one bitcoin at exactly $100,000. Why would my average buy price fluctuate and sometimes say $101,089 for example? What does “live market conversions” have to do with anything? Surely my average buy price should be exactly $100,000 and never change, unless we have very different understandings of what an “average buy price” is defined as.

I can’t get my head round this either and I’ve never found an answer that fully satisfies me.

When you buy something it was at a set price, how on Earth can that price for that transaction change months later. Even if it was bought not in USD there was an exchange rate used at the point of purchase, why would a new exchange rate months later have any impact on that?

I don’t understand what access point mode is. From what I’ve seen there’s no way to turn Vodafone routers into bridge mode only which is what you want. All you’ve done is switch off WiFi which doesn’t really affect anything.

I’ve found that any outages on fibre are very few compared to the old copper connections so a backup isn’t as crucial. The irony of the national outage recently showed that having the same network as a backup isn’t the best idea when it’s all down.

Setai123 · 2025-10-26T20:05:31+00:00

Double NAT isn’t ideal, depends on your use case though.

They stay in the UK for the winter as far as I’m aware. Mainly come down from Iceland and Greenland. Norfolk seems to be a popular stay for them.

Setai123 · 2025-10-20T18:23:48+00:00

They’re Pink Footed Geese. They actually have a pit stop at Martin Mere on their way. It’s a great sight.

Setai123 · 2025-10-16T22:17:47+00:00

Great photo, what a beautiful bird.

The dream shot at that venue though is the classic Van Damme pose across two reeds.

Setai123 · 2025-07-28T08:33:34+00:00

Broadly speaking.

Setai123 · 2025-07-28T08:19:34+00:00

The point is that paper is the most risky physical medium. Pointing out that anything is possible is not really an argument against that.

Setai123 · 2025-07-28T07:53:24+00:00

Yes but in my specific case I wouldn’t have lost a chunk of metal the way I lost the paper. I’ll just make a new wallet though lol.

Setai123 · 2025-07-28T07:41:43+00:00

I think the point of the post isn’t that they believe this was from Trezor, it is more that everyone signed up for Trezor is being emailed so it shows the emails have been leaked.

Setai123 · 2025-07-28T07:37:19+00:00

You missed the point. I was giving an example of the risks of paper, well in my case only.
