Are you sure your particular Zig charges the leisure from the mains? not all do...just put the model number into a google.

it's always charged from mains before! It's a cf8 I think.

Tim,

may sound daft....but the fuse hasn't flicked in the consumer unit has it.....that was why my zig wasn't charging from the mains. Turned the consumer unit on and all was well..... :oops:

(my excuse was that I had not used it before on the mains!)
