Am I being dim, Dave ?

… your link only gives me the glossy front-cover

On well …

Regarding the worm/gear meshing of various combinations …

Until someone carefully measures that big bush, we will never be 100% sure … but meanwhile, I am happy to accept Noel’s statement at face value … it is eccentric, and therefore allows the centre distance to be variable.

I presume your post crossed with Noel’s

The pedantic answer being “you don’t … you do change their centres”

Just a ‘calibration orientated’ thought …

Have you checked that it also reads 50kph at a GPS speed of 40kph ?

Not sure what species of Speedo the early Mini used

Edit: __ I strongly suspect that they used ‘Magnetic’ speedos [at least on all but the exotic models] … but I stand to be corrected

Thanks, Dave … much appreciated

MichaelG.

So presumably you’ve thoroughly tested it and I’m safe pre-ordering one

MichaelG.

How did you get one before the release-date, Dave ?

Back-end of October was what I read

Thanks, Robert

I will say now … just to be clear for everyone who is contributing to this discussion:

I have no interest whatsoever in upgrading circulating water heating system in this property … my ambition is to remove it entirely.

Sorry, Victor … I am out of my depth and can’t answer that ^^^
You already have wiser advisors than me.

I was simply observing that although the word CONDENSER appears on the ‘template’ there seems to be no value shown. … I found that simple fact worth mentioning.

Fair enough, Victor … thanks for the clarification

MichaelG.

 Just had a close look at your photo:

I can see no sign of any number stamped between CONDENSER and MFD

… perhaps that is a multi-purpose rating plate

[ which would be rather naughty of them ]

I couldn't consider that for very long … but I haven’t got the will to explain why, here.

MichaelG.

Sorry Robert … to whom are you referring ?

If it is me, then I pretty clearly stated what I had been looking at … and that is not what you have assumed

Quote from the other thread:

Not straying too far off-topic, I hope

Does anyone have experience of these: **LINK** https://sahp.info

Solar Assisted Heat Pumps for domestic hot water

… I am tempted by the SAHP 130

All seems perfectly consistent to me … I don’t use electricity for heating, just for the items mentioned

Calculation:

Meter Reading on 04-Aug-2022 = 35276

Meter Reading on 04-Aug-2023 = 35934

Forgive me please, Victor … I am a little confused

You originally stated : “It's a 220v 0.7 amps 1/15 HP motor, with a condenser.”

capacitor = condenser
