    Electric cars.

    As well as setting a charge level you can also set a charge rate in Amps, incase you want to charge more than 1 car at a time maybe and want to balance the load I'm guessing.

    Electric cars.

    I just plug it in whenever I'm home, default charge is to 70%, change it to something higher if I think I need it. You can fast charge to greater than 80% but the car will slow the charge as it get closer to 100% so not relay fast charging for the last 10-15% or so.

    Cheap Hops

    I have mine! But unfortunately 4 of the 9 don't have a vacuum seal anymore. And one was spilling hops into the box. Tasted the spilt hops and it wasn't good so looks like I'm chucking almost half, anyone else's turn up like this or was I just unlucky?

    BIAB Do I Don’t I

    That would probably work, if you're boiling with say 5.5 litres of mash you'll probably hit 4.5l to ferment if you keep a close eye on it during the boil. You can always top up with boiled water in the FV if you end up undershooting. I've recently made the switch from kits to AG BIAB and really...

    Cheap Hops

    Had the same with my last delivery by Evri, out for delivery email received and then another a few hours later saying there might be a problem with my delivery and I need to wait 7 days and contact the seller. It's not like a corny keg and a load of other stuff can fall down the back of the...

    I watched a bin waggon rip the lifting gear off the back this week reversing onto a (too steep) hill in Howtown, wasn't you was it 😯

    Young drivers face £3,000 cost for car insurance

    I've no idea how he'll drive but hopefully the combined threat of higher costs, black box keeping an eye on him and threat of losing his job if he can't drive will keep him pegged back to mach 1.5 only.

    Prices from £955 per year.... up to? Anything I guess.

    Young drivers face £3,000 cost for car insurance

    Just had a quote from them before reading this, £259 whilst learning, it then says all bets are off and you need to cancel the policy once passed. We'll see what that amounts to I guess.

    Young drivers face £3,000 cost for car insurance

    My son (17) needs to start to learn to drive for his apprenticeship. Lowest quote for his own insurance as a learner on a 1.2 Polo was surprisingly only £288 with the comparison site offering over 30 quotes. He then got a second quote just to see how much it would be once he passes his test...
