It's about short-term growth. It's the enshittification of everything. In the long run this (big tech companies gobbling up smaller ones)…

Thank you for the link, I didn't know the early Qi protocol was so inefficient, that makes sense.

> If you use slower wireless chargers (Qi1 or 10W), they are less efficient and generate more heat Citation needed, have never heard of…

Thank you, that all makes sense. I like the idea of the 3000mAh battery so I went with the Sofirn H35R. It's currently $28.79 on Amazon so…

The big Belkin "surfboard" models have been around for a while (10+ years?) and are plastic. There's a newer "Belkin Connect" model that…

I'm having a tough time deciding between the Sofirn H35R and the Wuben H4. Which one would you go for? [edit] after looking at the…

I bought the Q7B for my parents and it definitely seems to be smaller in size and thus have a smaller battery than my Q7 Max+. The reduced…

It's the best I've seen so far. A lot of 25000mAh and 27000mAh power banks tend to weigh over 600g, so they're quite a bit heftier.

This is what stopped me buying one as well. Lots of people saying the 4TB versions in particular seemed to be prone to these failures.

I think the title might be a mistake, if you read the product specs and look at the product images, they clearly say it does 45W charging.

Your ones are the new/latest model, which allegedly does not have the click of death problem. I say allegedly, because just like the P110M…

There was someone in the comments last time claiming that the older fat Meross plugs didnt have the click of death issue, so your…

The click of death is when a smart plug fails, resulting in it cycling the switch/solenoid on and off very rapidly, producing a loud "click…

This. Doesn't matter what you run (whether inductive loads or not), the click of death always happened eventually to my Tapo P110 and Kasa…

These are great and work great with Home Assistant -- the only potential big caveat is that they might suffer the same "click of death"…
17/10/2025 - 18:49
Note that this is the newer version with Matter support. ATL according to the 3camels. Most likely going to sell out fast. I've been using…

No. Get a robovac if you want to reduce dust in your home.

It's a good budget gaming or office productivity monitor. Colour gamut is a bit meh but acceptable, and you're not going to get anything…

I have almost exactly the same wishlist! Agreed, this is a ripper of a deal.
08/10/2025 - 10:23
Correct, the 3 models in this deal don't have a remote. There are 2 models in the DC range that do have a remote but they cost more -- the…

My parents had their traditional taps replaced with half-turn ceramic ones and the water hammer went away for them as well. Can confirm…

Courier Please 5kg delivery is - $8.50, doesn't that show up as an option for you?

The last good Disney show I watched was Andor, ironically enough. Definitely one of the best TV series ever made.
20/09/2025 - 23:07
It's not optimised or intended for gaming. While it is a bit faster for games than an RTX 5090 (about 15-17%), it also costs way more for…

Includes the hire fee for the armoured van escort and armed guards!

5.5 years is a pretty decent run! Especially since it was a budget/low end build.
27/08/2025 - 15:17
The iMac seems like a genuinely great deal (aside from the shortened warranty, that is rather sketchy), but I would still suggest going for…

A 32" QHD monitor is usually seen as an entry level/budget choice because of the big visible pixels, so that's usually not where the…
