Dig,
I would be very careful reporting things about the Proof Houses you know how 'tetchy' they can be.If I was asked to test a £100K worth of kit I would ensure I was using the right 'tools' and not accept my collegues offer of 'here mate try these'I would have disected one or two to check the load for myself.It would be interesting to read the official report and any communications between the interested parties.
