Pulled down the old one from the back of the carport, the sensor cover is disintegrating from the weather and before long a squatter (spider) moved in stuffing up sensor operation. I’ve broken off around the edges to tidy it up. The light will be fine to use somewhere else and I can make a new cover from some overhead transparency sheet. |

Unpack, plug into power and…while I was having a quick read of the instructions Pixie was already sitting in front of the thing – LOL
Power board breaker tripping?
From last week one of the 10A breakers has been tripping in the power board ?
Above: Went looking in the carport area and found the culprit, old weatherproof power point that I pressed into service when wiring the driveway lights to a sensor switch.
ALDI: Tevion Power meter $14.99
- Measures household power/energy consumption
- Multi-measuring formats including current and historical consumption, greenhouse gas emission display
I setup the unit and entered our electricity rate.
Plugged into entertainment centre GPO, it’s over a month now so should be able to get some decent stats.
ALDI: Extension Cord Safety Lock $2.99
I bought a few of these, simple but very handy.
This Christmas will make three years since I installed a rain tank behind the garage and running power from the garage to the pump is still on the job list!
So I am using one of these on the extension cable – for now.
Also use one on the pressure washer.
