For some reason I am getting a lot of requests for 70's nights. (could be something to do with being in the local magazines and country life ;) )

Anyway I have 'acquired' some light screens. They work great, but the sound-2-light unit seems temperamental.

If you have one available (cheap :o ) let me know. Preferably with the 8 pin octal plug connections. Don't know much about them so don't bombard me with confusing questions.

Cheers ;)

Cheap as chips but you will have to fit the new style plugs... not a difficult job tbh. :) http://www.discostudio.co.uk/njd-sc4000e.html

If the boxes are fitted with Bulgin PX0552 or PX0957 sockets, ONE of these on each box should be replaced with a PX0959/P inlet, the other may be left as a link outlet. Any leads with PX0551s on both ends should have ONE end replaced with a PX0956/S socket.

Once you have a box with one 552/957 and one 959 fitted, it is even more important NEVER to use an old 551-551 lead to connect a single box, as you'd then have a nastier widowmaker in the form of the 959.

If doing this yourself, ensure the work is checked and PAT'd by a competent person before plugging it in.

Hope this helps

Tony

Cheers Tony - just finished googling all the connections :D :D . Cheers for the advice :beer1:

As with anything I do electrically, I get an electrician to do the job and pat test it afterwards.
