Default Quiz - down lights and that extension


http://wiki.diyfaq.org.uk/index.php/File:Spotlights.jpg

OK so we have first fixed the basement and ground floor of the
extension. And the customer seems to like down lights.

We will also be rewiring the existing house.

So how many down lights will we end up fitting when the job is complete?

There are no detailed plans so I do not know the answer ATM.

However the person closest to the answer (when we have finished the job)
will win a prize[1].

If it helps at all I can tell you that the basement extension has 54
down lights.

[1] Probably a **** one

like. Trees and more of the ****ty fence panels by any chance?

They'd have been better off spending the money moving somewhere with a
nice view.


In Doncaster?

There must be nice parts of Doncaster? (Possibly outside it.)

Found an internet comment that children in Bessacarr harden their conkers in balsamic vinegar.

Has the customer discovered walk-over uplights yet?

I'll guess 185.

Have you put in fused spurs for the MP3 toilet-roll holders?

I'll decline to guess, as a night out with one of your apprentices isn't something I'd like to 'win' ;-)

Even I will not know the answer until the job is finished.

So far Bedrooms 4 and 5 have both been 1st fixed (and their ensuites and
dressing rooms) All spotlights.

Both skylights are having LED strip to light them up.

I set up the tower scaffold on Saturday for the Master bedroom 1st fix.
And guess what - that's all spot lights.

The games room will have a 12 gang dimmer switch.

The bedrooms will all have Lightwave RF switches and for the ultimate in
tackiness the ensuites and dressing rooms will have PIR sensors.

Most of my visitors thought I was being adventurous with 2-way switching for the bedhead lights.

Nothing tacky about that, it makes sense to have
them where its easy to ensure that they work reliably.

What lamp is going in the downlights RO60s? ;-)

All the relaxing ambience of a motorway services..

No wall socket or floor circuits for table lamps?

Don`t need to go full Lutron building management but gotta think a scene setting panel and remote dimmers would have been easier to fit.

No reading the paper on the throne for too long then ;-)

Is there an additional award for guessing amount of cable going in, guess your going to go north of 3km total
