Re: It's a bit wet here at the moment
Ahh, Lucas smoke, that brings back memories from the dark ages. But, sorry, no you can't use that on Chinese inverters, they only let out green smoke and you can never catch it. From memory the Lucas smoke was always expensive and hard to find.

Cheers

Re: It's a bit wet here at the moment
I have a couple of boxes of the stuff for sale.
Each box contains 12 cans of Lucas Smoke. Last price I got was $100.00 per can.
Green Chinese Inverter smoke comes in a bottle and is only $25.00 per bottle.
If there is no interest I will have to donate them to the " T1 Museum of let Smoke Out " .

Re: It's a bit wet here at the moment
I never had a problem finding Lucas smoke, every British vehicle and motor cycle I've owned has donated large quantities and if in an enclosed area you could just cut it into blocks. Any electrical system that ran a positive chassis and uses a Zener Diode into a lump of heatsink for voltage regulation is certain to let the smoke out at some time in its life.supersparky wrote:Ahh, Lucas smoke, that brings back memories from the dark ages.

I'll wait till the morning to see if I get any dare devils take up the inverter switch on challenge, managed to get the roof vent fan running so I'll leave that on for the night and see if it helps drag some of the moisture out. Today the water was running down the insides of the back windows and soaked the pillows and curtains, so there is a bit of moisture to get out

Maybe find one of those $20 a day caravan parks with power included, plug in a few fan heaters & head off to the pub for a few well earned sessions?

The Mannum caravan park is a no dog establishment, wee found one across the river that allows dogs, $30 a night with power. The pub trip would include a return ferry trip, might be interesting after a drink or 3 
Young Gordon and Wendy (Bugman47) will be there on Sat/Sun/Mon as well so should be a fun trip.
