I had a pacemaker fitted about 6 months ago. Other than arc welding are there any other problems I should be aware of with general workshop activitetes?

Particularly with electric motors.

Talking of pacemakers, the originals were made in the 60's at Joseph Lucas Research in Shirley, they tore the building down this week I believe to add more capacity to the local care home ghetto

Blimey, I hope they made the pacemakers better than some of the 60's motorcycle electrics!

( light hearted comment not intended to start a huge thread about motorcycle electrics, after all Joe Lucas was known as the prince of darkness!)

Pacemakers never went anywhere near a Lucas factory, they came out of a proper lab and the only thing that Lucas were allowed to manufacture on the site

I always thought that was when the battery fell out (after the headlight flashed very bright for 1/2 second)

Wow … essentially off-topic after two posts. Is that some kine of record – even for here?

Hi David,

We had a kitchen refit last year, and the instructions for the induction hob said to keep away from it if You have a Pacemaker ( not workshop related but just for information )

Cheers, Pete

If you have a VFD running anything, it might be a good idea to replace the cabling with shielded wires
