    DIY blue flashing lights - choosing lights

    My dad is an emergency driver. All he has is a dash light that I bought him from amazon last year. Since my dad is an electrician I thought I would get him some blue LEDs so he can make his own lights as he complains about the price of emergency lighting.

    Reverse Energy Flow

    I know nout about PV systems. Is it possible that the system, when there is nil demand by the consumer, can feed energy back into the supply? I believe there are two energy meters used. Sorry if this basic thing has been asked before.

    reversing a thermostat

    Is it possible to reverse the switching on a normal 230v AC thermostat, the spec is for an extraction fan to kick in when the heat builds up. I know that I could use a relay to reverse the normally open and closed sequence but something out of the box would be better. Thanks Phill
