RE: Water flow sensor

["Hawes,Timothy Edward (GEG)" <haweste@xxxxxxx>]

Brrrrr . .. I've got a chill just thinking about cold showers :-)

This was the sort of thing I was thinking of:
part # 228-2557, again at http://rswww.com

I'm sure there are others, this was the first one I came across.

Keith's your solution would seem to be the most reliable, provided of
course you've got an electric shower :-)

Cheers,

Tim H.

P.S. IR beam-break inside the shower cubicle ?

Ah !

See.... I forgot about non electric showers :-)

However, I see a flaw in Tim's plan....

Cold showers would have to be taken in the dark as there would be no hot
water to trigger the sensor and turn the light on.... unless of course you
only shower during the hours of daylight!
