Thankyou mate 👏🏼

Thank you mate 👏🏼 nice to see all the old names and faces still watching too

❤️ thanks Waynard 👊🏼

Thank you as always ! 👏🏼

Thanks mate, I won’t forget to plug that bloody hub in first next time!

Ahh it was in fashion once! I love seeing houses like this. The lady was well into her 80s-90s

Thanks dude! And I’m not a lefty, but I know where you’ve got it from! It was just because of the angle I was stood at made it easier. But probably why I look like it’s my first time using a screwdriver too 🤣

I’ll make one soon, and I’ll be honest the GoPro didn’t really pick up just how clear it really was. It’s amazing!

Glad it could be of some help. Thanks for watching 👏🏼

Excellent, will make a video when I get chance. thanks for watching mate 👏🏼

I uploaded last week too, but apart from that, yes I’ve been hiding! glad your still watching tho!

@@Cablesmith can I rack your brain on something see if my suspicions are correct?? So basically steam got into customers socket which blew , they got someone in who wago’d the cable and filled it all in before checking it was working (spoiler alert it wasn’t) upon testing I’m getting a reading higher on the incoming than the outgoing. My guess is there’s carbon build up and the wago isn’t connected properly as it’s not connected to the copper but the carbon does that sound about right to you before I go ripping through this wall tomorrow morning lol , literally just thinking clipping half inch off each side of the cable reconnect the wago and that should effectively solve the issue to the ring main ?

It’s well cool! Just having a play around with it before I review it on here. Thanks for watching mate

😅 swerved a right headache there!

The switching side on a baxi 800 isn't low voltage it's 230 volts one cable comes from the switched side of the clock if fitted on the boiler the other is the heating call wire. The only low voltage connections are for an outdoor temperature sensor and an open therm controller which are away from the mains connections

Worth noting - The single channel Hive switch operates at either low voltage or main voltage, whereas the duel channel operates at just the high voltage.

Ah right I assume that would be in the instructions for whatever receiver it’s for, my instructions just said not used but that’s for a combi only

I quite like the b&q light fittings tbh, always good quality and easy to install from what I’ve seen. Thanks for watching Ellis!

I couldn’t really comment on hive much because this is my only experience with it. I will say tho, the responsiveness of the stat was a little delayed but it wouldn’t put me off it. I personally have had a nest for years now it’s it’s been excellent. And hardwired stat too so no batteries. The nest feels a lot more premium and solid also.

@@Cablesmith Thanks for the reply Sean,I checked out the Nest as well as it had a good review,unfortunately I don't have any wiring in the walls for a hard wired one so I have to go down the wireless route

@@pikricky would it be a difficult route to add wiring?

@@Cablesmith I think so,just had the lounge and dining room decorated,wish I'd thought about it before that happened

@@pikricky I know you can use the nest on a stand plugged in, but they are better on the wall aren’t they

Good stuff mate! Thanks for watching

it’s typical of a gas fitter to do that, the cable should be earthed yes

It seems a lot of manufacturers are doing that now actually

Yep I noticed the display thing, my nest is off but it displays as you walk near it which is handy. as for the switching, this Baxi was in fact 230v on the switching.

@@Cablesmith Yes, you're right - I just read the baxi 800 manual. I see that it supports OpenTherm which is supposed to be better than 240V switching because it allows the stat to modulate the temperature of the boiler (i.e. run it at less than 100%). Nest supports OpenTherm but Hive does not so Nest might be a better choice for those boilers that support OpenTherm. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aaddq7dq3ZbKn40.html

@@sidremey ah I see, good to know mate, thank you 😊
