Hager Sollysta looks good & no problems at all.

If i was you i would stick with your building work, while doing a day a week at college.  I decided to change career at 36 & looked at the short courses but decided not to bother because of the cost.  I thought if i went to college i'd only have to pay £450 for my first year & if i...

When making a query to the tech helpline with regards to tails, on consumer change (domestic).  The service head fuse was 60A, they said I still had to upgrade the tails to 25mm regardless.
