Hi Neil

Yes I am up for that although I am usually a silent onlooker!!

Any day and time should be OK with me.

Great idea.

Hi Geoff

Having worked on these a couple of years or so ago I found a recurring fault was a sensor on the bottom of the unit. There are two sensors connected to the board with two flexible wires each. If I remember correctly these were coloured blue for one and red for another. If you unplug these one at a time you may find the fault. The heater is another possibility. Unfortunately the sensors are not available as spares or were not when I looked into this.

Hi Clive

I have repaired a couple of these in the distant past. I think you will find that the seals have allowed water etc. to reach the bearings. Not a pleasant job I recall. After repairing a couple of these I would always recommend a new unit to customers, although if you have the time and patience to do it yourself it would be most rewarding.

Hi

I am lucky enough to have one of the smallest storage heaters and a dehumidifier. Normally it is as warm as toast inside. The shed was well insulated when built and this is crucial. I bet I get a few criticisms over the expense but I would prefer to be warm now retirement is being enjoyed.

No rust bug either and that's a bonus!

I have just chanced upon this video **LINK** I would not have the patience!

Nice work though

I quite agree with you.

OK there are a few problems at times but surely we can get by without too much acrimony. Neil made a point about the chap doing his job and getting abuse - shame!

I would like to thank Katy for her willingness to listen to complaints/suggestions and hope that she will continue to work on this site without too much - I nearly used the wrong word there - complaint.

You cannot please everyone!

Hi Chris

Hi

Has anyone received this issue yet? I have noticed that the delivery of issues is slipping from once being on a Saturday to a Monday and now not so far this week.

Brian

Hi

This is the link I believe you are referring to. **LINK**

Thanks for the pointer

Hi Ed

I have had a pair of vari-focal glasses for about six weeks now. I have to say that I have struggled, more so with reading, with these. Fortunately I also had a normal pair at the same time and I use these for any lengthy reading or fine work. I was told that most people take 4-6 weks getting used to them. I find that for normal use they are very handy, not having to change specs each time and find driving OK with them. Thats just my personal opinion, others may differ.

Good luck anyway.

Brian
