What do the manufacturer's instructions for your Shelley device say? I suspect that the device itself will have internal protection (fuse) even if it's just a fine PCB track that will fail in the event of an internal short. In reality short lengths of "undersize" wire will still open your 20A breaker before the wire itself gets hot enough to be a problem if you do get a short-circuit.

A truck loaded with thousands of copies of Roget's Thesaurus crashed yesterday losing its entire load. Witnesses were stunned, startled, aghast, taken aback, stupefied, confused, shocked, rattled, paralyzed, dazed, bewildered, mixed up, surprised, awed, dumbfounded, nonplussed, flabbergasted, astounded, amazed, confounded, astonished, overwhelmed, horrified, numbed, speechless, and perplexed. Meanwhile, those waiting for the shipment were at a loss for words.

I think I was married to her once ...

@LoeiI is it just your insulin, or do you (or yours) need room for beer! The peltier units are small and work well, but they are rather power hungry, so if you need long run times maybe look elsewhere.

You mean she's an actual woman?? No extra bits??

Insurance job, or cash on the nail??

As above, fix your UK will to include both her names, AKA is just fine. Also as above, the legislation preventing her from owning land if she took your name is long since rescinded. When we moved to Thailand (long ago, there were dinosaurs roaming) Madam told me she was going to change her name (we married in the UK using her Thai married [and divorced] name). I thought she was going to change to my name, nope, she changed back to her original maiden name. No issues whatever, we have the relevant paper-trail. Thai's change their names with gay abandon and it's rarely an issue.

An 80W fridge should be within the capability of pretty well any UPS (particularly if you can get an "inverter" type fridge), but how much autonomy (power-off run time) do you think you will need??

I've been soldering since I was 10 or so plus spent 3 years as an apprentice honing my skills. Even now I've occasionally melted something that really shouldn't have melted. Modern plastics seem to be less resilient than they were when I was a lad... Case in point XT90 battery connectors. By the time you've heated everything up to solder the wires the ruddy pins are flapping about in the melted plastic.

IF you are quick with a big iron, then OK. Remember it's got plastic innards.

You need to consider the magnitude of the caps in the inverter and any startup leakage current that the electronics takes. A resistor small enough to charge things up in a reasonable time would send your LED into low earth orbit ???? I have 50 ohms and it takes several seconds for my LED (with 4k7 in series across the resistor) to go out when the pack is up near 55V.

OK. But please use Lucar or Faston connectors, don't solder to the switch. You would use COM and NO for your pre-charge.

Do you have a photo of your actual switch? I'm not sure exactly what you are asking.

They've been promising this downpour for ages, Madam is still watering the garden as we've seen little decent wet. Plenty of grumblings in the interior but actual rain seems to be avoiding us.

Yeah, I do have "more accurate" dates, but commercial in confidence etc. etc.

Yes, the trains are testing over a limited section, it's not open to the public.

Yeah, our daytime usage is pretty well zero due to us having hybrid grid-tie solar, so if we get an electronic meter I think we will go TOU. At present we have a spinning disc meter that goes backwards if we export excess solar energy.

You are, as I noted, 1.2.2, lower than 22kV, unless you have a private transformer. But you can check easily coz your bill will tell you (just look at the standing charge).

And then ... In reality, look at end December / early January for a passenger service.

I too wonder about the very high voltages quoted for some tools. Anything over 48V or so is going to need a physically large pack. My 10.8V (later re-branded to 12V) DeWalt tools just keep going, the impact-driver is particularly good. If you don't have an impact driver, get one, far better than using a drill to put in screws. I will say you tend to get what you pay for, the weak point is almost always the batteries (which are of course unobtainium when you need replacements), and whilst it is possible to re-cell they never really work as well. If your batteries really are still good, then getting a tool that uses the same ones is sensible, but not all packs that look the same are actually interchangeable ????

I've removed the name of the hospital for legal reasons, shouldn't affect the responses.

If you can get it shipped with HS code 8713 https://www.cybex.in/hs-codes/carriages-for-disabled-persons-motorised-heading-8713.aspx It should be zero duty plus 7% VAT on the CIF cost from either Germany or Singapore. BUT That might get classed as "medical equipment" and require an import licence which could end in a world of hurt! Really best to talk to the sellers and ask if they can ship DDP (Delivery Duty Paid) which should mean no nasty surprises at this end.

And, as if by magic ...

Have you actually signed up for TOU (Time Of Use) metering, if so: - https://www.pea.co.th/Portals/1/Knowledge PEA/Electricity Tariffs JAN66 Unofficial Translation.pdf?ver=2023-01-27-133655-423 You will be 1.2.2, weekend is the same rate as off-peak.
