I think to update the string of lights you’d need to change transformer. Household bulbs have a driver in the bulb that converts the 230V to the ~12V the bulb uses. But for that string of lights, they’d need to get an electrician (or someone who knows what they’re doing)

I have an ikea one. Made by WhirlPool. You can find the manufacturer if you go to the support page for the product. I got a mid range ikea hob, and their 365 frying pan. The frying pan has the best Teflon, but the metal is pretty thin, so there is definitely hot spots. Just something to consider

Induction hobs are amazing. Much faster than gas at boiling water, and an equal response to changing temperature. Lower quality induction jobs and cookware will have hot spots though.

I have one because we have too much shade to grow grass. We have a 3 storey 60s house and a small, north facing garden. That said only one brand was recyclable at the end of its life, which is a shame

Do they mean unachievable for the budget?

What’s people’s thoughts on these for a new build that won’t connect to the gas grid. Electric underfloor heating is almost 100% efficient, cheap, doesn’t need plumbing or radiators, and incredibly easy to zone rooms. But these are 300-400% efficient

At least they weren’t storing it in the Parthenon this time

Their old principle was ‘don’t be evil’. The fact they no longer say that tells you everything

Happy to answer any questions you may have!

I very much doubt they'll get back. I also put about minimal effort into the report as I really don't expect anything to come of it
