I've sold a handful of things to friends, for basic parts costs and a little extra, so not any
profit to speak of.
This consists so far of a couple of GSSL's and a stereo 9K.
It's causing a bit of a problem, as I'm not "self certified" at the moment and these are 240v
units that are "DIY" it invalidates any insurance as a fire hazard !!
I've had to explain that there's no CE approval and that the insurance is an issue, so I have an
agreement that the units will ONLY be powered -up whilst they are recording and never left "on"
when these friends are not in their house/studio.
I don't feel comfortable with this, even though the units are tested and made as "safe" as possible
- heck they may well be safer than a lot of cheap imports - just having them "plugged into the mains"
is causing an issue right away.
It also invalidates my own insurance as I now have several units working in my studio !!
What do you all think about this and is it worth sorting out "self certification" to get around these
problems ??
Opinions most welcome,
Marty.
