Draper marked FORIEGN i thought draper was Japanese but maybe they were made in England lol
Old fashioned swivel chair bases ?What’s the thrust bearing for?
If you believe all the nonsense it will be halfway knackered if it’s 10 yrs old. It isn’t of course. Mine is maybe 5% down in 12 yrs, maybe less than that, they need a clean.Today, well, OK, last week, was a very good day.
Full 4,5Kw solar array aquired. Free.
No idea quite what or where im going to use it just yet, but, depending on the house and workshop situation, a home will be found.

Story of my lifeabsolutely no idea what I am going to use for
Totally.I dont believe the nonsense. Even it was at 50% efficiency, who cars. Its still free.
No, i dont believe the nonsense. If if they were 50% down, so what, its free and therefore still more cost effective than new.
That said, it was never connected. Just sat on a roof for a few years.
Now even I would consider 50% of nothing quite uselessTotally.
I’d rather have 50% of nothing for free than pay to have 100% of something which will take time to recoup the outlay and degrade to the 50% anyway.
I had this conversation the other day. Bloke won’t earn over his tax allowance so he doesn’t have to pay any. I’d rather have 75% of the extra than all of nothing. He couldn’t understand that.
