W*tchm*an oil level sensor

[theeggman]

Tip of the day?
When our level sensor battery failed (after 7.5 yrs) I was looking for a cheaper supplier than the manufacturer at £30.
They are on fleabay at £15 to £53.
I came across a diy forum which suggested removing the cap off the 15mm copper tube and inside are 4 AAA cells.
Just insert 4 new cells "+" end first and replace the cap end.
Job done, money saved and it works.

Go natural gas - but it might run out tomorrow!

Rab,

The nearest mains gas & water is too far and expensive to supply.

Tractor man means " natural " as in gas produced naturally from FYM... like some natural beeminders use to landscape their natural hives!

I read of an East German pig farmer who used his FYM in a digester to produce methane (CH4) and generated electricity using an old VW air cooled motor rigged up to a generator... he must have had a lot of pigs!

It's raining again
