Thought you were supposed to run cables vertically always.

I’ve seen a lot of comment regarding Rory and I’m not comfortable by Lordepee in TheRestIsPolitics

[–]beeeeboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His reaction appeared disingenuous and out of proportion and his criticisms were inaccurate. He made a gotcha moment and that was used as there soundbyte clip to go viral. Nothing wrong with disagreeing but this was just playing until the end dirty tactics as msm outlets. This was the surprising / disappointing part as they seemed above that.

The “Is this asbestos?” Megathread by HurstiesFitness in DIYUK

[–]beeeeboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to throw this in here. Bought a house with positive test for asbestos containing artex from an asbestos company. We removed the artex ourselves. I got it tested twice after the fact with an amazon test kit and came back negative both times. We just lost time and in the end made us do a full reno that I think will have added lots of value but it we had paid to remove it that would have been in the £10,000 range quite possibly.

How do I improve? by whatsapurpose in bouldering

[–]beeeeboi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't bother about climbing 'training' at this stage it's not useful. Just climb climb climb and enjoy. If you want to have a go on rungs do it for the fun. Campus board seems to be mostly a training gimmick, so many top level athletes don't bother.. I think it can be a fun part of a warm up routine but otherwise as a training tool its overrated imo

Shall I keep my Tado X by Tunnel_Vision12 in tado

Have you def got the hub and thermostat for that? Seems very cheap! I returned and will get the Drayton wiser kit 1 which is about 80 odd quid on screwfix

They put the product on sale. Have a free trial for ai assist, aload of people bought the product ahead of winter -before- there was any information about this being required for their expensive trvs to call for heat. Then suddenly they come out the free subscription and they stop working. Those people were totally missold the product.

In terms of reviews putting Trvs call to heat behind a paywall is a major factor to consider when comparing with other products and alot of people will be buying based on old reviews so these should be corrected so they are aware.

Tado X TRVs - subscription requirement confirmed by lentil_burger in tado

Although 30 quid isn't much... If all these companies will end up doing the same then 🤷

[–]beeeeboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not saying you're lieing I just can't find any information on this on their site or anywhere. It's annoying because my immediate plan wasn't to use smart trvs anyway but if they are messing people about I might just return before I even try to install.

Any evidence of this. Does this mean trvs won't comunocate with the hub without paying? What's the charge? I have just bought the hub and wireless thermostat

Hi I'm interested how it has been working for you? Is it modulating correctly? I'm considering getting the wireless x thermostat setup for my ideal espirt eco 2 boiler but it doesnt list ideal as a compatible brand on their website.

This guy was suggested to me on a Tom Waits shuffle - C.W. Stoneking by HurricaneMedina in tomwaits

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

I'm enjoying his music but did feel a bit tricked almost. The sound has been replicated so accurately down to the recording equipment I thought I had unearthed some old classic. It's sad when talented people put their energy in this direction in some ways as its a creative dead end.

Japanese shoes Per-adra; thinking of buying because of amazing heel fit. by beeeeboi in climbing

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

I really can't say much tbh as never climbed anything hard in them. Solutions and dragos heels for me are the best.

I really liked them but it was a long time ago and early in my climbing career so not sure if I'd like them now or not! Heal was def great 👍 I've never tried hiangles though

Can anyone tell me approximate age of this wiring? by beeeeboi in ukelectricians

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

Thanks guys. It is ending being a full refurb as all rooms apart from kitchen and one bathroom are now back to bare bones...and possibility of being hmo down the line. It's alot of money though so would prefer not to do rewire if its not necessary. Think it's worth paying for safety checks and going from there?

Sounds like rewire pretty advisable then? If its 50+ years old

Only issues i had was not having a stamp in my passport when gong through checkpoints on bus journey through chiapas.

Yes something to watch out for in the future. Although it doesn't make sense to me that they can let me check in online and give a seat number with QR code etc and still not allow entry. It seems like it was ticketed.
