I've a bit more of a fundamental lack of understanding sadly. MJ discusses A2 but not really how to tackle it.

Nope to the 11HM7, but funnily enough 2A3 has been crossing my mind again of late. Dunno about A2 though, grid current is new to me.

It's been said before but most of us are jolly pleased that YOU run this forum the way that YOU do Nick. Respect.

I guess it depends on what the actual cost of the Sophias is, but I wouldn't have much of a choice to make at those prices Steve.
