I think that is only one instruction on the door. They have to master that one before they can view the other side in order to read the second one... :-)
Is that why pater nosters could be found at quite a number of academic establishments? (Are they still in use these days?)

Round here it's only Morrisons.
One advantage is that trolleys taken back to the trolley parks in the Morrisons car park get left very neatly compared to e.g. Tesco, where it only takes 3 or 4 randomly dumped trolleys to fill it up.

That would be because they haven't the slightest idea what is the correct adjustment

I was rather annoyed.
This was a shelf-stacker so I doubt they could do this. I wasn't prepared to queue up at a checkout in case and there was no-one on the customer disservice counter.
Anyway, they have now lost my business forever (or at least until all the other supermarkets annoy me equally).

led Ohms law ;-)
I was taking the piss as I dont; understand this sudden inrush of amps as i= t's quite predictable, but it does depend on the type of bulb or rather the= filiment.=20 perhaps the 'law' what goes up must come down with regards to beam lighting= but I don;t think so. Other than the speed of light 'law' I'm not sure wh= at law can be broken ;-P

Your argument is complete false.
The DVLA are specifically allowed to sell the details of the keeper for this use so there is no DPA misuse at all here.

The landowner and the occupier of the land, if different.
Footpaths and bridleways are highways and, as such, governed by any legislation that covers highways, whatever the type of traffic, be it horse, pedestrian or invalid carriage (the legal term for a mobility scooters). Invalid carriages are allowed to use a highway provided that they comply with The Use of Invalid Carriages on Highways Regulations
1988, which includes the provision that Class 3 carriages must use their lower speed of 4mph while in pedestrian areas.

yes I do actually in fact I've plotted such results for an experiment we were going to run in the lab years ago, although this was for a standard 'house' light bulb rather than a halogen of car headlamp bulb. So for me it's not a sudden inrush of amps as I'd fully expect it.
I'm not sure if flashing them is the cause of their failure I know car indictors don;t fail because of flashing but then again they are underrated as their prime job isn't illumination. I believ a friedn problem with his halogens in the kitchen is due to vibration from upstairs as he seems to be replacing bulbs too often.
I'd say it causes a surge rather than generates it. But each to his own.

Words like "sudden rush" and "surge" are meaningless in this context, except to the extent that they apply to any circuit when you apply volts. Current will flow according to the resistance at any given instant, that's all.
If I apply 240V to a one meg resistor, there will be "a sudden rush" of
0.24mA or so, to match the voltage I applied.

They are apparently more common in pikey areas. A quid for a trolley is cheap though, new they are nearer a hundred.

with what did you measure the current? an analogue meter wouldn't register fast enough - nor would many digital ones. You'd need a "peak hold" meter.

How about a storage scope? Does anyone make stuff like that these days?

Perhaps not what you think of as a "storage scope" but it's getting more difficult to buy a new 'scope that doesn't have storage.

Apply Potential differnce
Well not just resitsance but inductance too, but I don't think that occurs in car headlamps or any bulb to any degree.
Yep in accordence with ohms laws that's way I said it in the first place in that who is breaking ohms law ?
you see I couldn't work out what part of ohms law was being broken by a "surge of amps".
But is it sudden ?, I think not, and what do you mean by match the voltage. Not sure if your 240V is AC or DC though as that could change things.
Every time anything is conencted to a voltage that is capable of conducing current will flow, whether or not you se that as a sudden rush I guess is up to the observer.

Thass why I think it's a silly phrase to use in this context. They way it's been written about so far would imply to me that the user thinks that you connect up the volts, and the amps "rush in" until they notice the resistance and then decide to be sensible and slow down to the proper value.
