Hi all, Does anyone know where I can purchase a 12 volt Cake mixer/beater. The one with the two beaters that is used for beating cake mixes. For obvious reasons don't want a 240 v unit. Have tried searching, eBay, 12vshop, Whitworths and Google with no luck. Thanks to all in advance.

I was very lucky to survive Marcia with just a broken window and ruined solar panel, along with a dent in the awning housing. Could have been a lot worse had some branches come down a few inches either side of where they landed. Cheers Joe
