Open Question: Can i wire a ceiling spotlight bar with halegen bulbs to a plug then run off sockets ?

Hi, im looking at some halogen spotlights (4) that are normally wired into the electrics in the ceiling where the exciting wiring is. The thing is it's for my dartboard... I want it the in the corner where the board is and not in the centre of the room where the light fitting is. So my question is can i buy this > http://www.homebase.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=20001&partNumber=1811212&Trail=searchtext%3EYORKIE and then rewire it so i can connect it to a cable then hide the cable with plastic strips then use the plug in the socket? or is this not possible for any reason? p.s i have 0 electrical knowledge except from how to wire a plug !!

Open Question: Mini Electric Dust Blowers?

Do hardware stores sell those? I'm not sure what they are called so I assume they must be "Mini Electric Dust Blowers". I plan to use them for things like keyboard cleaning, handheld devices, etc. however I don't really need those full sized ones and yes I need a electrical powered one, those manual ones just won't do.

Open Question: cant' get light fixture off to change bulb?

I have this weird light fixture I can't unscrew. Help!? All of the light fixtures in my place look fairly standard--glass half globes in the ceiling with a little cap in the middle holding them in place. When I go to unscrew the cap, there's a small hollow metal rod held place by this flat metal piece, and those seem to be holding the glass part in place. and I can't figure out how to unscrew *this part*. All of the light fixtures in my place have the same problem, so I don't think it's just a matter of the parts being stuck. I've tried all sorts of tools, brute force, I *can't* get this thing unscrewed! Help! I really need to change my lightbulbs. Sorry I don't have a pic. But if anyone has *any* ideas and/or links to websites with info on this topic, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Open Question: Nutone intercom door unit.?

Hi, I have a nutone 2090 intercom in my house, its about 30 years old. I have the wiring in place for a door unit speaker, but I took the speaker off because stupid people didn't know how to use it. What I'm wondering is can I just put a doorbell button on this wiring so the doorbell would ring through the intercom, but have no outdoor speaker. I have a 4,000 square foot house so it's sometimes hard to hear the doorbell. Also, would it be possible to install a new master station unit and keep the same remote speakers?

Open Question: I have a #@*Beaumark dishwasher. After 2 years it wasn't draining so I de-scaled?

I tried dismantling the float because the bottom wouldn't drain despite all my efforts (maybe it was stuck). Well....now the #@*#thing won't stop draining! It drains while it's filling, it drains while it washes, rinces, etc. I checked the float and it goes up and down when I touch it (I broke off the cover over the float, but it appears okay). Any suggestions (outside of putting the cover back on--its broke)?
