Love seeing someone using youtube the way it should be done.
Happy dead dad day. I lost my dad 8 years ago now. Like you say youve got to stay happy and positive or it isnt long before you are heading for a dark place.
Happy anniversary, Nick. You're a good lad and we all appreciate you. I'm sure your family does too.
Actually you want 3 pairs.
1) tails
2) solar
3) battery circuit
Good on you looking after your Bro, agree wouldn’t be charging immediate family.
Happy Anniversary!
Happy anniversary, great video. Thank you.
I lost my dad also on the 8th May 1 year ago. Miss him lots but he was suffering too much at the end so it was a release.
Your dad would be proud of you on the community you have created and your videos.
Wait till your children get older, that’s when you discover how much you can really do for free !
Nick, because your using the full CAT5 cable you could use the two remaining pairs to hardwire the charger rather than connecting over WiFi. It'll only be a 100 Mbps connection rather than 1 Gbps when you use all 4 pairs but plenty fast enough for the charger. Just something to know going forward should you ever need to fit a charger further away
Congrats on your 5th year anniversary of RUclips, great achievement, Nick, your dad would be proud . Family is important I would always do it free. ⚡️👊
I’m very disappointed that you didn’t shout” bang” in your brothers ear as he plugged the car in for the first time!
I charge family fuel costs, i don't charge for my time. (lots of my family live 30+ miles away). they pay materials, and fuel. and the tea tax... but like you, if i get a product cheap/free, they get it for the same price
Here I'm the USA bit that's my favorite step stool. Im 6"4 and don't need much help reaching light fixture and ceiling but it makes things much more comfortable. I also have a size 14 shoe us and that's one of the few stools I don't feel cramped on. Also since we had a few ladders and work platforms collapse on us (280lbs big boy) any stool or ladder we use has to be IAA 375lbs rated or it goes in the trash. It's a company rule now safety first! Glad someone enjoys that step stool as much as I do.
You always look after family, there everything.
Nice work for helping out your family! Totally agree 👍
Never charge family and if I do private work for friends that’s free too.
Bless yer Nick you’re a good man
solar installations, smart chargers, feeding into the grid, separate, battery banks
this is starting to feel like Subnautica and other resource management games where "it just works" and it's a nice little box.
Remember that materials you gather are the property of the Alterra corporation.
You will be liable to reimburse the full market price. Your current bill stands at 3 million credits.
Happy Anniversary Nick, thank you for all the entertainment
Your dad will be proud Nick.
One love YNWA
To fix solar assistent go to configuration, advanced and change the power settings for grid, solar and battery.
Fair play , would be the same with siblings and parents, everyone else don't as it often ends up badly. I wouldn't ask a cousin to do something for less than full market rate and tbh just knowing someone who is professional , competant and reliable these days is worth so much more than any cash discount .
First class family ethics, respect.
#Legend, Wasn't sure if i needed to say sorry, or congratulations..... Top man
Sorry for your loss, even if it was 7 years ago, I’m sure you miss him just the same. Lost mine in November. Hit me even more than I thought it would. Top vids.
You could use the third CT terminal to put one on the battery storage as well, which allows the Zappi to do things like trying to avoid discharging it etc
we did after the video mate, found a spare ct clamp in the van
If they end up switching onto the Octopus Intelligent Go EV tariff then they’ll probably not be able to avoid the battery draining into the car during any of the smart slots. The avoid drain setting won’t really work for that.
Edit: just watched the end of the video. Fast charging outside of whenever the battery is set to charge from the grid is going to drain the battery, all the Zappi can do to try and avoid it is reduce the charge rate which isn’t going to be what you want.
Happy dead dad day! Think I might have to do this with my brother - we most my dad 11 years ago. Anyway, great vid, love the setup - I'm about to have something similar solar wise and in future an EV (ducting going in, ready for underground cable pull). With your videos, I've been able, in conjunction with my local sparky, design the system I want. Thanks for all the informative video's. I plan to automate it all with Home Assistant while on Octopus Agile tariff - something your brother might be interested in
I love how you are about your dad, I lost my dad when I was 10 and I joke about it and I get told off 😂 but in my head if you don't laugh about it you cry instead 🤷
My commiserations that's a tough age to lose a parenf. My dad died of dementia so frankly it was a relief to all including my mother and so, if i remembered the date, which i don't, it would be an ironically happy day. Stay happy !
It's a valid way to deal with grief and stress.
Happy anniversary! Just a comment, with battery systems you should put a CT on the battery circuit also. Then with a third party battery set the grid export limit to 150w. This will stop the Zappi draining the battery
Classic brothers, never paying their way 😆😆 clean looking install 👨🍳
The point the builder made, about how friends/family (does anyone say Family before friends?) should be charged and promoting you, it doesn't have to be that way, you could still do free/discounted, and hopefully they will start promoting your work.
So that is what a real Bundy beard looks like :) I agree humour is the best way I have to deal with things, when my mother died of cancer and was pronounced dead by the doctor I replied "What have you done, she was alright a minute ago". The look on the doctors face was a picture.
The most important thing is to manage expectations. I just had a friend who was shocked that I charged him for a board change, so I went ahead and wrote a Mate's Rates document. I have sent it out to another friend already, and they find it very fair.
Great video as always.
Question on the Fusebox CU. I know you didn’t fit the board but the rcbo’s appear to be the taller version which are single pole (unless they have changed them) I don’t do anything with solar but shouldn’t they be on double pole rcbo’s the same as ev equipment.
Also will be interesting to see what happens when amd 3 comes in, how many rcbo’s are bidirectional now or will that be another cost for another version of rcbo.
I get that everyone is working from home these days, but honestly I just don't find this 'I can't turn the power off' acceptable.
As a customer, it doesn't matter what the trade is, but if they're in my home doing work, I arrange my day so that the electricity/water/whatever can be turned off or disturbed. It's a very limited window, and I want the contractor to be safe, and almost as important, do their best work.
The idea that someone could or Would do their best work for you while going through hoops is just ridiculous to me. I'm going to make it as easy as possible for the person to do what they need to do. Even if it does nothing but put them in a better mood, I'm pretty sure I'm coming out ahead. Not getting the best electrical or plumbing work you can because it's slightly inconvenient to rearrange a few things seems the very definition of penny wise, pound foolish. 😂
Totally agree - it's just courteous really! And make your professional a good brew too!
100,0000% mate if I can supply temp power, i will... if there's a henley block, we have a temp supply on a board, with 2 double sockets, you can run ext leads from that, but i am NOT putting my life at risk for some office job
@@lordgeeker1138 and some cholocatey hobide knobbs as well
I like you, you seem a great human being. Superb work young man, and your videos are fun and great for different things. Looking forward to the Octopus video as I am just switching to Octopus energy and having a battery system attached to my 4kw system that I have had for ten years. Having the GivEnergy All In One 6kW - 13.5kW Battery and Gateway hoping I have gone the right way. Any advice on battery systems appreciated. Thanks
Happy dead dad day Sir Nick. And happy YT anniversary. Those plastic cable tie holders look great. Take care. Love ya. Bye
Your Dad would. Is so proud of the man you've become.
Happy dead dad day he would be proud of you Nick. Congratulations on your 5th anniversary as well keep up the good work mate.👏🏻👏🏻
Congratulations on the success of your channel. And wishing you all well as you remember your father. 😊 We've just passed 9 years since our father died, wasn't the most er... tranquil relationship between him and me. I'm unequivocally grateful every day for our marvellous mother still being with us and well.
Have to pull you up on your feline etiquette though, "Mr Cat" indeed! What you meant to say, of course, is "please forgive my impertinence, your majesty".
i felt that pain dropping the rubber and losing it
You are a truly lovely person & great content too
well done nick we're old school do what you can for family when you can theyre all you have look after each other ..
Hey Nick…..happy dead dad day, I’m sure he’d be very proud of all that you’ve achieved and will continue to achieve in the future, great videos, thank you 👍🏻
Hi Nick. It looks like Artisan have been in and installed the Consumer units before you done your work😃
I would never charge family , and I never have … friends some we would swop ( plumbers) etc would do my plumbing .. I’ll do there electrics ..others I’ll give a discount .. I also did a lot of work for pensioners .. ( an allowed a day a week ) were I would not charge labour only for material.. also my daughter run a nursery for autistic children. I do a lot for them
As well .. when I can. ..it’s called a helping hand. To others who cannot … congrats on your 5 years. It’s nice to see a young guy like yourself giving the trade a good name ..,,
Great guy Nick love your ethics.
When you are pointing at the consumer with the flashlight it dawned on me you need a stick with a little pointing hand on it when you are discussing what you are going to be doing!
So glad it was only your brother and not someone else being nasty.
Sorry to hear about your loss. My father went in 2015.
I’m struggling to see why there is different rcbo’s in a fuseboard consumer unit or are these fusebox afdd’s can’t really see
Great video. Keep up the good work
Congratulations Nick 👍
Have you got the right type of RCD for bi-directional current flow, with the new amendment coming 😅😅
Those the ties velocity sent in the OG NB200 bag
Are the spit guns worth the money or would a normal concrete nailer do the same?
What model MG is it that you bro has? Looking at larger, family size EVs at the moment.
Immediate family that I have alot to do with materials only
wider family members about half unless it's a larger job ofc
Ones that only got in touch for my work, I charge as normal minus a small charge
Can't believe I have just seen a wormhole extreme t shirt, that is such a specific reference
As for charging family and friends. Family is free they just pay for materials but they know it gets done when I have time. Parents for example I will know months in advance when they are on holiday and do things then when they are out the way.
Friends (close ones) it depends. If it's a quick job just some food down the pub. If it's a day it's food down the pub and they can pay to fill the van up on the way back so maybe £100 of diesel.
For friends of friends or their mate from work etc I usually just say I'm too busy as I don't want to insult them by charging them full price.
You are a good lad. Keep it up 😊
Love what your doing mate keep it up
Any work I have done for family all I ever charged was them suppling me for tea/coffee and lunch, as for friends charge them materials costs and a case or 3 of beer. But my mechanic mate has made a lot more beer out of me, than he ever got from me
The Clarksons voice 😂 love it 👍👍👍👍👍👍
You need a third CT on the battery prevents Car charging off the house Battery
This is a great artisan video although I feel like the quality is slipping although I like the green zip ties.
I am not in the trade but yeah I help my family free of charge (I don't charge anyway lol) and usually they pay for the materials they want to have / install. I get love as a payment 😂😀👍
I had a eye problem my "family member" charged me for a lift to hospital 😱🤷🤷.l never charge .
We buried my dad on my birthday, so it’s always easy to remember!
You’re a good lad Nick.
all the best Nick and family 🫶
I work for family free because family works for me free. Different skill sets or actually raising you. If they were always too 'busy' to help I would apply the same.
Congratulations on your RUclips anniversary
thanks mate
I don't remember the date my dad died, but man hugs to you (the strong ones that end up with me handing you and your brother a pint)
Friends and family think I am an undertaker. Never get asked for discount.
I think the rules are you’re actually entitled to charge anyone with an alive dad double🫡
Family always comes first,help them any way you can even your mum in law lol.
Heartwarming but the thing about non paying customers is easily sorted after you have given them a Reasonable Time to pay then just pop round and pull the Main Fuse even the DNO will laugh at that one
My grandad said give friends and family a day when they get a new house. Charge from that point onwards but be generous but not at expense of your own family.
Happy dead day day its 15 years for me 💔
Haha the burn for Artisan.
Happy anniversary buddy
Family I typically provide labour free and charge cost price for any materials, for friends it depends on the person but normally I'll work for food and drink! (charge for materials though!)
The way I see it is if I have the time to spare it doesn't cost me anything and for most people I'll happily help out, not looking to gain from friends and family as long as I'm not losing out by doing it
Close family it’s zero labour for me. Everyone’s different though 😊💡
120 quid is expensive for those steps??? Hardly.
Parts only never charged for labour to family
That fuse box RCBO isn’t bi-directional so will fail over time and turn into just a MCB 🤓
Happy Anniversary 5 years on RUclips
Happy anniversary from your long long lost cousin in need of a rewire 😂
I will recommend the Little Giant steps to my carpet fitter friend
I don't charge friends and family, and I don't charge for snagging on VIP customers. Coz I'm cool like that.
Pay for materials only personally
well done mate
Happy anniversary 👍
Wt happened to the viper @nik did you get it working or faulty?
Yes mate all up and running, I didn’t charge the battery full to start with
Is right Bundy
You didn’t work for free Nick! Fanta zero remember 😆 👍🏻
Happy RUclips birthday mate 🎉
I spit on your gas nailer. But I don't spit on my biceps from using the heavy dewalt BATTERY one (0 gas!!)
seriously though it's so freakin' heavy.
Me and my sister love making people feel awkward on dead dad day 😂
Best thing ever 😂
Size 13 that is mental
The Zappi rule about needing to use their screws should have been the earlier warning of how much of a buck pass company they are.
Dead day for me is 26th March. Stay positive.
you're a decent bloke
He's your brother........ yeah, charge him double Nick.
