    Great idea...as someone that's between jobs currently, I could be doing that kind of thing myself.
    Good way to keep an eye on what everyone else is charging too.
    *adds to watch list*

    The barter for work is a good system too...know a few people who've done that...you don't always need what someone else has to barter though.

    he can use Watts. It's a unit of power.
    Yerr but it doesn't fit into Ohm's law so it's the odd one out.

    Fair play to him for soldering on through the current recession. His amm.. peers should sine up to his bright idea faraday. Induction may be difficult even though they have the chance to step up and transform this into a static business model.

    the poor chap is only trying to generate some business... i know he's swimming against the current what with the state of the economy being the way it is, but surely it's good to see someone trying to stay positive?

    ampere-haps this could work out well for him!

    In all seriousness though i knew an electrician who did something like in the OP and it's not a bad idea tbh.

    A C Deasy... anyone know him?

    OK that's it, somebody lock this- thread has lost it's spark.
    Oh God, this isn't punny anymore.
    Please for the love of God, somebody lock this.
