Thanks, that middle link works out OK, still a premium for a very small chain but that’s to be expected I guess due to low demand. Hopefully that will change as these little saws are really handy.
Following the Hager saga on David Savery YT channel is concerning, they don’t just not care, they have almost tried to pee people off. The protection simply doesn’t work, side by side all other makes detect faults and open, the Hager doesn’t and they will dispute the test rather than answer.

Loncin or Longi? Loncin don’t list panels as a product, more generators, engines, water pumps. Longi are however well known and currently avalible from cityplumbing so could be the right specs…

A lot of brands will use PWM drivers as mentioned above, use a CC driver and it won’t be an issue. You see it with the DeWalt and Makita work lamps for example, the DeWalt will show flicker if you wave a hand in front of it, especially dimmed, the Makita doesn’t. Volvo rear lights are also...
Personally I’d buy a M2 Mac mini, it is a much nicer user experience, lightning fast at all normal stuff and sips power.

Still have an AEG from 2008, was the main washer until last year, needed brushes, put in outbuilding since so now gets all the rubbish, dog blankets, matts etc, still going strong.
Replaced with a Miele in house, lovely and quite, my only annoyance is needing to be powered up to open the bloody...
Yep, Panasonic are no longer what they were, my LG was a replacement for a Panasonic Plasma, which at the time was very good. I would have stuck with them but unfortunately now Vestel rubbish as AJL says.
I think at the budget end I’d take Hisense over a Vestel though.
The older inverters were designed by Power-one, ABB bought them, then in turn sold them to Fimer. Getting spares was possible from ABB but Fimer just do not care, no support or customer service, even to large companies with buying power, let alone Joe Public. Google reviews are pretty accurate...
Fimer are the ones to blame, horrific company.
Usually an easy fix with these though, just order the 4 relays up (assuming an Uno) and solder in. Fixes probably 80% of them.
This is hard as they all claim 25years but large scale hasn’t been around long enough for that claim! I was seeing panel failures at 10-15 years old but many were still OK.
The inverter will be the likely point of failure, I’d budget for replacement at 5 years if you want to be really cautious...
Do you have a threshold for fitting optimisers Kayos? We (not me personally) have fitted these previously (grid scale farms, 5MW-20MW) and the outcome has been negative enough to remove them again, often used only in problem areas of the farms but still never been worth it.
My personal...
I’ve yet to go electric (company choice) but the others are not paying for the power and whilst it’s charging are earning double time. I won’t be seeking out superchargers, I will be looking for the slowest possible :laughing:
Geoff and his mate MacW*nker are parasites of YouTube imo, spouting utter rubbish with clickbait titles to garner views. Plenty of good videos on GazTube with balanced output to counter the two clowns fortunately.
All electric vehicles at my company now, I think you can pick diesel or petrol but none do, the BiK makes it a no brainer. I’m due a new car in 6 months so I guess I’ll find out for sure then when I can see my choices.
