Hi CTXKID The Portugese style rotating cage i found on a website called The BBQ Store.com.au Unit6 / 12 Lyn Parade Prestons NSW 2170 Its all high grade s/steel. Aussie made [But still a pain to clean :D Edit: Ph. no. removed.

Im actually starting to enjoy using my Cyprus grill lately. I watched an episode of Food Safari the other week and they showed some fellow doing a Portuguese style butterflied chicken and I thought to myself, this looks good so I gave it a go on the weekend the recipe called for it to be...

There's something about starting a fire and throwing some meat on it. Very therapeutic I recon. Some chicken wings [love the crispy tips straight off the barby] and some marinated pork neck. Gave the 12v BBQ a good run on the weekend.

Thats some pretty flash work mate. well done Cheers ChrisM

https://youtu.be/jLLW7s2R4SsAfter that seemingly small occurrence a few years ago with one ant running off with a small gold nugget if seems to me that the ant clan have become more brazen and organised in their attempts to acquire precious metals and now diamonds. This is an attempted daylight...

What a great result mate. Ya gotta love the final product I know I do !!! :Y: :Y:

Firstly I need to say thank you to all you guys for your invaluable input. Thats what makes this forum such an amazing pool of information and opinions. Its a huge learning curve for me when it comes to solar and its efficiency. No matter how I dice it or slice it, the current real estate Im...

Thanks for all the comments so far everyone. Im slowly getting my head around this series v parallel caper [well sorta,kinda]. This morning I went out and got a new multimeter capable of reading amps. AND a quick thank you to the guy who overheard my confused explanation about what I was trying...

Thanks Simmo Im probably to blame for giving out the wrong information to the lekky. Electrical stuff just frys my brain. Hence the reason for this post. I Just Dont Get It :o Its like some sort of wizardry and black magic combined. Im still trying to ascertain if its worth keeping/updating...

Hi Nightjar I just contacted my auto elect and explained what you said to him. he confirmed to me that you are correct in what you say. In simple terms when in series you have higher voltage and lower [or constant] amps When in parallel you have lower [base] voltage and higher amperage. Theres...

Thanks for all the replies guys. Much appreciated. I'll try and work out the amps this weekend and pass a judgment on the output then. Im wondering though, lets assume they pump out 2.5amps. I would guess that is the combined output of both panels [correct?] The size of each panel is aprox 450...

Thanks Simmo. A DC clamp meter / amp meter is one of those things I havent got. I'll ask some people who might know tomorrow. Suppose youre right when you say it may be ok at 18v but its no good with low amps. Lol looks like another learning curve coming up :lol: Cheers

Hi everyone. solar panels are alien to me so I wanted to ask some members with experience in these things some questions I have a set of solar panels mounted on my roofrack {one of the current projects on the go} but Ive never had them hooked up to the system. They came with the rack at the...

Had the whole tribe over for dinner last night so we decided to turn it up a notch. Paella with chicken, spicy chorizo and prawns. i have to admit i did play the prep chef most of the credit goes to Mrs M :cool: Prepping The end result This was just soooo good I just had to share it ! Cheers...

Nice work ChrisM, :cool: where do I drop my cruiser off, not fussy about colour matching either :D Are they spring loaded ball locks thingys ? Yes Silver. Got them from St Bunnings [they got everything lol] Happy to send you the dimensions if you need them or we can build them over a beer...
