climbed into attic eaves and fitted a proper extraction grill to vent out and iv'e put in a intake pulling from a spare room with proper ceiling vent to make it less suspect
hopefully when the heat hits again i'll be ready and prepared
looking into the silent acoustic box fans 1500 m3/h if all else fails i will buy it lol
the temps are good "for now"

Also , the sea keeps the coast warmer through the summer.


Anyway, I'm properly freaked out in the last 2 mins. I need help.

I was just in the main room staking some plants up and suddenly the lights all went out but the timer box was still on!! The rest of the flat was still working though, then i turned it all off by the timer box dial and then when I exited the room, the lights in the flat jumped? Is that a main generator getting swapped over or something? Why did my lights go out and timer box stayed on?

If this happens whilst I'm away, I'm fucked . The AC didn't cut though. I've dropped a couple of lights, not even overloading??

So worried now..

This is not fucking funny now. I just walked the dog and brought a bag of soil in from the car and it's happened again!!! I was washing my hands in the bathroom and the light flickered, went to my room and all the bulbs were glowing red, just gone out.

@ovo ive got a timer box for 8 X 600w and I've dropped to 3 lights in there for now.

Don't know why the AC doesn't go off. Nor why the timer box doesn't cut.

you can even use push bike chain & sprockets, use a heavier flywheel for a bigger load like yours, its a good backup if nowt else.
hope you get it sorted.

How come its dropping so much at night where you are Don? I thought the South was much hotter than here?

These temps right now are nice but it's coming.....

I'm stuck in the city as you can see and my bf is with his parents in Cyprus where it's even worse. I need to escape...

I didn't know you could Jimmy it! God knows what's happening. I switched them down to 400w before I left last night.

Found a pic of the box, I'm not at that place now.
I've got a proper timer box, see below, with newish Digital ballasts.

Nice looking set of Bud's

It is totally separate from the mains supply, you can power all the house if you get a big enough geny/alternator and its cheap to make...geny borrow from road works, iron weight from the gym makes the fly wheel's, or use a car flywheel is about 15kg -25kg (depends on car), again from the scrap yard, you have a no pay electric supply
