Is the older version non DVB-S2 I take it?

Yeah the older ones had a Monochrome screen too, not sure if that's the one Chris has.

I might pick one of these up, the last one I had you could watch TV on it, but that's not a good idea nor comfortable up a ladder.

It does dvb-s2, the screen is in colour it only displays the signal meter and quality meter.

Mine doesn’t have the compass or the flash light.

Yes somewhere around here I have a big black version that allowed me to watch the transponder.

That one wasn’t dvb-s2.

As Rusty has said I thought it was the DVB-S2 one, didn't realize there has been two models after that standard one.

Ref the 370W Draper 05096 grinder/sander ...

Started actually using it a couple of days ago:
- as other buyers have said, setting the sanding belt tracker adjustment is tricky (bit hit & miss) but I finally got it done after about 1/2hr. Before that. the tracking had suddenly gone haywire and shredded the belt - luckily I still had several new belts for the old Nutool unit, and they fit the Draper as well!
- proved very useful this morning when I had to drastically thin down a small piece of laminate worktop edging strip so that I could use it to repair a damaged section of the kitchen worktop. Took two attempts to make it the right shape & thickness, but well worth the effort

Nice extension leads in Lidl tomorrow, going to stock up on these as I find the Lidl ones are really good quality with decent thick cable:

I'm hoping 2 metres, but no idea sorry, I can check tomorrow.
They vary each year and have different styles.

What is 'child protection' on a passive cable and block connector?

Does it morph into something that scares the s**t out of them if they come within 2 metres ?

Hah If only!
One assumes its the cover that moves to reveal the Live/Neutral when the plug goes in?

Maybe it comes with a pack of condoms to protect you from having children?

As I've probably said before, angle-grinder is one of my favorite tools in the garage. An it is kind of universal. Have got 5 of them in use, but I feel the need for another one or two

Where are the diamond discs?

Those are usually in separate storage

It is a place nearby, where we (men) can relax, drink, eat, watch TV, do hobbies, play games, spend spare time, hide away from problems.... etc. etc.
