Hi Ian,

Did that this morning - the powerflash with nothing connected seems
to do nothing (as expected). I'm going to leave it a while to double
check - should I bridge the contacts and try that as well? This is
the main thing that leads me to think the reed switch is at fault or
wrongly connected (if that is possible).
