Andor Found Background Items and props.

One more thing I noticed on these. The Safeway model you posted does have a UK electric plug. Others I saw were African plugs and the Charlescraft was North American.

PS - Are there restrictions on electric knives in the UK? I haven't seen any on Ebay UK which seems really odd.
Maybe they just call them something different?
Maybe because of this attack in 2015?
I thought I remembered hearing something about that.

Those are the electric knifes we are talking about. They share the same shape but different branding. Still a common practice today, some resellers stamp their brand. I could not found another electric knife sharing the same shape, so, If you are willing to replicate the metal detector, "any of these will do the job". (Same case with ICOM SM-2 or SM-6 Mic) That slider missing button on the handle, seems like an added stuff. As they modified slightly the part were the oval button rest.

Side note: Martyn Doust, Andor's TV prop master, liked my Instagram history about Safeway model, which I think I was a warm gest from him, so I will stick with it. I could be wrong of course.

Let's add another Mic to the Ids. Model is unknow, since the very seller, the only one I found, didn't know the model. Bummer. It is a Racal Headset from RAF. It seems replaced by a new model, Atlantic one. Have to email Racal to get original model number. Andor team slightly modified this one. Cut the wire and possibly painted it on black.

Andor episode :9
Doctor themo gun

Looks like they used a slightly simpler model of this thermometer gun. The display and sensor end don't have the black clamp-looking details (neither does the prop).
Smart Sensor Infrared Thermometer Gun (Model AS530)

Also sold under Sovarcate and Kizen.
Photos of it seem to be interchangeable on all the sites I looked at since the gun itself is unbranded.
I even saw the Smart Sensor packaging on Sovarcate listings.
 
Wondering what to buy to decorate your backyard? They used them on Ferrix. Taylor Wharton Cryogenic Storage Dewars...Very expensive!

The large orange trays are called a 'Hampa Pak', I don't know the brand either but they're relatively easy to find on EBay, there are UK and Australian variations which are mostly identical but the Australian version which was by a company called Kambrook has a slightly different layout on the trays. These packs were seen prominently in Space 1999.

Funnily enough I was looking at these last night thinking they'd look good in Star Wars!o_O

I work for a company that supplies gases for business and industry (welding gases, liquid Ox and Nitrogen, etc.) and we deal with these dewars almost every day. Many doctor and dentist offices use them for liquid nitrogen storage. ;)

I can vouch for that.

One of the Interviews I've seen mentions that Nemik's Manifesto prop had some radio cassette parts, has anyone had a good look?
I did. Only buttons from that cassette were used.

Cool, can they be bought empty?
