    Saw these holesaws mentioned on another thread so went and bought one. Not cheap but absolutely brilliant so sharp, only problem is the pilot in the power change adapter is too short, do they do a longer one? Can only see one type listed online, any ideas?

    Tails longer than 2m

    What is the main purpose of putting a SF inline with the main head for running mains further than 2m to location of CU? I know it must be to do with the operation time of the DNO head but I can't figure out correct terminology.
