New Tractor Shed
PK:
What LED light did you buy Andrew?
I've had two (used as security floods) fail in the last three years... I'm reticent to blindly purchase a third without a recommendation..
PK
awemawson:
PK - bought from Phase Electrics in Hastings - but they are a UK chain of distributors. About £80 if I remember correctly and are guaranteed for three years.
Matthew - tests last night showed that it was adequate and markedly brighter than the flood lights on the buildings on two other sides of the yard, but not exactly 'operating theatre' bright. It'll be good to see you again in December for the scraping class.
So Darren arrived and shaped in crushed concrete the form of the ramp that will gain access to the building to give us an idea of the overall form things will take. Then he pushed a load of earth around with his 6 ton digger and then 'landscape raked' it with my 3 ton JCB 803. The ground is just a bit too damp to get a decent tilth, but the weather doesn't look too bad for the next few days so play resumes on Monday.
While he was doing that I removed the temporary wiring for the internal and external lighting and then installed the permanent wiring even with the luxury of a light switch next to the door (contrasting with the temporary 13a plug / socket !)

Here you go Matthew - Flood Light lit
mattinker:
Certainly brighter than mine! You've got more space in front to light up than me!!

Andrew,
We had a severe hail storm here late afternoon yesterday. Not big hailstones but lots and lots of them! And torrential rain to boot.
I wondered if it had survived to your end of the A272 and beyond? If so, the sound level inside your tractor shed would have been fairly formidable!
