Mrs6C Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 The generator will be there and operational, as will the stove and kettle. We'll have tea, coffee, sugar, milk etc. but if folk can bring their own mugs for hot drinks and stick with using these throughout their visit, that will help!

This eBay listing says (for a Goodridge stainless steel equivalent): The overall length including end fittings is 305mm and have male 3/8ths UNF ends.https://www.ebay.com/itm/TRIUMPH-GT6-VITESSE-GOODRIDGE-STAINLESS-STEEL-FRONT-OR-REAR-BRAKE-HOSE-GBH203-/372519487628 No dice from me sadly. I can get something 10mm shorter but the come in a bit more expensive than those ebay ones. Mrs6C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday evening we have been in the habit of doing a group fish and chip run to Winslow.

Snot my generator, it belongs to the cylinders. However, yes, it has a 4-way BS1363 normal 3-pin sockets extension and can be used for charging stuff. What sort of power is needed for charging? I ask, as I plan to bring a 300w inverter with me too so that the generator doesn't have to be running for ages to charge stuff. (also a couple of batteries to run it from) LightBulbFun and bobdisk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I might come down on the Saturday morning this time. Might be starting a job in early June so I'll take one last weekend of fun before I have commitments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talbot Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Charger for that is likely 150-ish watts. Will run just fine from a decent 12V battery and a small inverter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyrew Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Spring plate with edge tediously folded up, holes for many large plug welds, nipple pinched (oooo errrr) from old mount plate was zapped in both sides and then the lot was buzzed on Zinc primed then some Some stone chip slapped over the top. Safety squints on, the spring was compressed and wedged into place. Joey spud, RichardK, Mrs6C and 3 others 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelandeth Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I've got a solar powered USB charger I'm happy to lend to the event if it would be handy. Can't remember the exact capacity but when we were off grid for three days in March a couple of years back it was able to keep the power banks charged during the day which in turn fully charged our phones overnight. It just lives in the van but obviously hasn't seen any real use lately! chaseracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
