    Last video was quality, I’d love more stuff like that, was VERY therapeutic!!

    I've just returned after 5 months off from making content as I couldn't get the time to make the content I wanted to along with other commitments like e5.
    Your content is YOUR content Tom, it's up to people to either keep enjoying it or just #### off.

    I really enjoyed the last video Tom. You will never make others happy. Do what you enjoy and to fuck with the rest of them. You're content is fantastic.

    Ignore the haters Tom. Produce what you want. Variety is the spice of life. And if people want tutorials send them to college or a skills centre. 😉

    Those PZ/S screwdrivers are magic for working on switchboards, amazing the difference the right tool can make!

    Tom: Good morning/evening (evening here). Regarding the conundrum of material for your videos -- do what you are happy with. You are very unlikely to satisfy 100% of the viewers for 100% of the time, but doing what you are happy with, you will undoubtedly find most viewers also enjoy that content 100% of the time. Be Happy!

    Just to let you know Thomas your work inspires me. I was originally going to get the qualifications as I spent many years working with electronics then being self-taught with electrics. Videos like this set my standards should I ever want to do this as a full time job. Right now as self-employed web designer I'm happy but as a fallback I've always wanted to become a qualified electrician and work to the standards you demonstrate in this video.
    I don't usually comment on TH-cam videos but while building websites I have you playing on my second monitor! Your work is inspirational and is 100% top quality. As for the time in video processing I understand that it's time you simply don't have and If you do its hard work. Myself and many others here really do appreciate the work your doing.
    While I'm not a patreon I have turned off ad-blocker for this channel to give you a little something back.
    Thank you.

  • @quigofamily6362
    @quigofamily6362 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like these videos a lot. Buzzing around London doing jobs, banter with your mate onsite. It’s basically what I do every day why I’m here watching you I have no clue..

  • @SubsonicsBeatboxTutorials
    @SubsonicsBeatboxTutorials 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your completely right about your channel. People don't understand how much editing and time goes into TH-cam videos. I think you're doing a great job :)

  • @sparky2059
    @sparky2059 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think you provide Great content. Top notch! I am also a spark from the US. I also see other spark from across the pond, but not really thirlled with there channel, not saying they are bad or anything like that. I think it’s your style, demeanor, and your outtake on life and your work. Just a note, I had the opportunity to work on a video production trailer that came from England and some work that was done to it. It was sent out to Brazil as support truck I think for 2013 FIFA or to cover other sporting events. Besides working on that trailer and seeing the differences was a great learning experience and what brought me to your Chanel more knowledge and why (porcedures, testing and other items). Thanks for your time and effort

    Variety is the spice of life though lots of jobs are routine. Dont try a cigarette to test. Colleague of mine could not be botheredto go back for tester so borrowed a ciggy. Problem was he had just given up successfully. It put him back nearly a year.

    Tom. Easy for me to say but please do as you please. We enjoy your content because it is entertaining and informative. Your channel, your content and (sorry Dave) but well done for sending the him to the top. You proved you could do it by having gone yourself and then it was his turn.

  • @capnskiddies

    Hello Tom.
    Sorry to hear some people didn't like Your last video.
    At least You are trying different things.
    Variety is the spice of life and all that.
    I would just like to say, that, I for one, appreciate all the effort You put into Your videos.
    It can't be easy doing that and keeping customers happy, doing electricianny things, paperwork, getting supplies, answering the phone, dodging sodding traffic wardens, taking stick from Dave, wrestling bears, solving world peace ………...

    Hi Thomas. Worth pulling the detector apart if it's a photo type and there's no "reason" why it alarmed. It could be the tenant smoking. But it could also be a tiny insect inside the optical chamber. Or dust build up over time. If I can't find a "cause" I replace because then if it does alarm again you've eliminated a whole lot of reasons.

    I personally felt the previous video was good and was chill which it pretty much stated in the title.... I have my own TH-cam channel and I know what it's like with editing stuff so can fully understand the want for less work when your actually doing a proper job at the same time.

  • @tommooney5984
    @tommooney5984 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I thought the last video was brilliant Tom. At the end of the day as you said at the start of the video it’s your channel and you wanted to try something new so that’s all there is to it really.

    Tom, you do a great job with this channel and we are very lucky to have FREE content which in reality is TV/Netflix/Prime worthy... the way you have grown the channel to have a cameraman and putting out often 2 videos a week is amazing. A lot of people are very very grateful... don't listen to the arseholes... they're all across TH-cam.

    Probably takes hours just to get the memory cards together, on to a pc/laptop, chop and edit and then upload.
    Keep going with any ideas you think will be decent, i've been watching your stuff for the last 2 years without a winge.

    Hi Tom, you’re right about the channel being yours therefore you should do what you’re comfortable with and it works very well. I don’t know if you waste your time on Facebook groups but I am on a few and the standard seems to be these days to absolutely destroy anyone who asks a question. Just wondered your thoughts on this and whether you rise to it ever and it bothers you and if so does it affect your content?

    For the neutral switching. In the netherlands and i guess a few more european countries it is a requirement to be able to switch the live and neutral. If the neutral is not switched off the system should be considered as hot. This is according NEN1010 or NEN3410.
