Riddle me this.we are restricted by banding and 220 to 250 limits…… are there any restrictions in the UK. Grasstec have a video up of a farm on Scotland 1700 milked 3 times a day hoping to go to 2000.

As supply drops here will it flow from NI to the south more so than ever??

We have limits dependent on area either 170 or 250.

You can make your own if you buy the Milwaukee battery adapter.

Convert the Milwaukee M18 battery to a DIY 2-wire outlet. Fixed with screw holes: the adapter can be fixed at any position for easy organization. 1pc x DIY battery adapter (battery not included). Make sure the cable is not short-circuited when this adapter acts.

One i got certainly isn't dewalt, the actual dewalt official light was 100e or so, and not as bright. They all are straight from china and made to suit the main tool brands, this is the cheapest Milwaukee I can find on Amazon.

 
Huge entries of dairy cows in regular marts around here this week. I assume most were milked on and being cashed in to destock places a bit or ease labour with calves arriving.

Bought a 2nd hand machine and for a variety of reasons it didnt arrive in my yard until almost Xmas, which coincided with busy period for the installation crew, 45 hours completed so far on it by a 3 man team, they tell me 8 hours Wednesday and we will be milking in it, fingers crossed.
 
I see we are all going to be genotyping the whole herd ina few months time. Unsure what the outcome of this will be or is it a handy way of keeping on post tipping along. The icbf will have to get their act in gear as the testing of bull calfs for ai companies is brutal slow
