Does OCuk still do an Amazon Prime Day sales thread?

I could upgrade my 2022 Fire Stick to the newer 2024 version but I already have the Max, it seems the difference is just more storage but I don't need to add more apps.

I could do with more spare battery for my Fuji though.

Very liitle else tempting me though, some of the things I saw/bought before were cheaper previously. Like I bought the Fire Stick Max for £32.99 in 2022, it's £39.99 in this Prime Day.

Mine's just arrived and set it up, much faster than my 2018 model - can also control the tv and volume which is nice!

Use a price tracker and you realise you can get the sale price most days.

I think I could do that even with my very first original one. Which is why I ditched the Logitech universal remote.

Missed out on a 2TB SSD which was the only thing I quite fancy.

The remote on my 2018 one would only turn the box on/off, no volume control - it was a very simple remote.

You are right, it was the 2nd one I got in Dec that has it 2019. The one before from 2015 does not.

You can use Bluetooth for the sound.

WD 22TB Elements hard drive for £303, thought this was a good price and was a bit cheaper than the 20TB version.

I really pushed the boat out and bought a new toilet seat

Picked up a new PTZ security camera (Reolink RLC-823S2) for £215, down from £300.

The current camera above my parking space has started acting up and I wanted one that gives me the option to change views to the back of the house, or have a nosey around the rest of the street during summer shenanigans.

New car coming in November, so I wanted to get it installed before then.

Neighbours behind us got burgled a couple of weeks ago (over their garden wall and through the back door) - they asked if our garden camera caught anything, but I had to remind them that they made a big fuss when I originally installed them, that the camera was angled specifically so it didn't record their garden... (I showed them the privacy mask on the app at the time).

Have recommended the system we installed when we first moved in.
