Today I acquired...........

[6ply]

I don't now! You ever tried to weigh a big parcel on bathroom style scales you can't see the display!

Yep, except our bathroom scales retain the weighed value on the display for a few seconds after the parcel/body is removed.

It's in good company with me then.

The tree climbing kit I got last week, using it first time today up a birch and very happy with harness.

Also got a Simond (Decathlon) triple lock carabiner. However the unlock action is in reverse, instead of pusing the sleeve up, you pull down and twist! Actually prefer it but, bloody confusing when you have both types.

This was a nice find on FB.

Now, do I run it with a 12V bulb, or just bypass the transformer and use a 240V one?

 

[dobbslc]

That's complicated, I've never seen a three phase bulb before

Today I acquired a couple of batteries and a charger for my Ferrex gear, Aldi seem to be dropping the line so I thought it best to grab some spares.

Where the hell did you find those 40v battieries Bob? I need a couple and I can't find any in store anywhere.

 

[Pete.]

I tell you something though I had a fault on my bike and needed a 2.5mm allen key. Stopped in a Lidl and bought a £4.99 set of Parkside T-handles and they are a VERY good fit in socket caps. Pretty hard too when I did a file test.

There were plenty on the shelf in Southampton, there again tomorrow Pete do you want me to grab some?

Local stores seems to have the next lot of angle grinders/drills/multi-tools under a different name - but no batteries or drills. They had loads of chargers for the Ferrox name for a time, but they have disappeared - they had no battteries or tools for them though.

 

[sparkysy]

Cheers @8ob that is worth knowing!
Mrs has the chainsaw so I will grab some spare ones while they are still available.

Want me to look in my local store on the way home?

 

[Blobber]

Vauxhall dont do trade club stuff anymore its all gone over to PSA stuff so we will see how these batteries do, never heard of the make but a 3 year no quibble exchange

 

[qwakers]

this months auction prizes..

a nibbler, in perfect working order, with new teeth fitted for £35. 110v but no matter, still a good deal.

2x massive space heaters for £16! 110v and 230v. one was listed as for parts only. the only thing wrong with it was a missing bolt. both work perfectly on both 110 and 240v. £16. is a real win.
