Hi all, I need a bit of help with the electric side of things. My fridge works great on gas and did on 240v until now at least.

Also is it best with a flat mirror or a convex one....I'm used to flat ones but open to comments. I'd love C...

Hi All We have decided that an aircon unit is required for our 40ft bus/motorhome. I am shocked at the price of so called "specialised units". I propose to use a small 2.7kw kelvinator unit that is normally mounted in a window as this will fit below one of the seats in the bus. We have a 6kv gense...
