Hi Terry,
I have had over a period of time so many given ideas and suggestions from others (all good intentioned) that I was starting to get lost with electrics.This forum has helped me to get my mind around it.
I found that the Whatt meter advanced my knowledge greatly.
I'm putting together a booklet of all the usable Q/A (elec) on the forum, this is a handy reference and allows me to solve any questions.
Kindest Regards
Chris
