True, I like to do a real slow charge overnight though, much nicer on the battery. I never need to charge during the day so it's never an issue.

I've read about the turbo/quick charging being bad for batteries, but also that slow charging isn't good for them either.
I assume for both, it depends on how the charge is delivered?

Maybe you got a duff one? Atari in the phone forum/S7 Edge thread recommended these to me.

Got to say I agree, all of my anker cables are still working, despite one of them getting abused quite heavily
I swear those are the same pans we got with our Neff hob, about 4 years ago. Can’t recall the name on them, something German sounding I think. Only used the frying pan so can’t comment on quality.

It was pretty duff pretty quickly so maybe... I did buy it off eBay (brand new) so Anker wouldn't offer me a replacement.
Next time I'll use Amazon..

Nice, you happier with it then? I recall you mentioning in older threads about yours being about 10yrs old. Hows this handling the water splashes?
Same, got a good deal on it because the box was knackered lol

Oh I see, so Anker doesn't trust purchases from ebay. That sucks. Yeah, I would definitely use Amazon in future. That's where I got mine from. I prefer Amazon to ebay because of the user reviews informing me if the product is good, or non genuine and unreliable.
Wouldn't trust amazon reviews tbh.

Generally I do and Amazon are far better at returns than most other suppliers! Frustrating I didn't for this one.
This. A lot of them are paid reviews. I've been contacted recently offering to send me something if I reviewed it. Amazon have tried clamping down on it but it still goes on.

Only fitted it yesterday so can't really say - I just assume they will wipe off like the old one (only thing wrong with the old one - it looked old like scratched to hell) I have now heard the buzzing on boost - the old one didn't do it and going by boiling a pan of water there isn't any difference in (that I notice) in how quick it does the job. Got to retrain wife on cleaning it - no bleach -Viakal- scouring pads or knife scraping - and main one dragging pots across it - That will be hard as both of us suffer weak arms and pot full of water and spuds is heavy - we really need a handle on front of each pot - would help tremendously -

I did see while looking for the hob, Neff still do those pans - Schulte Ufer pans - I have just packed pots away but kept frying pan out - My best frying pan is a non stick well burnt and buggered Meyer one I do my steak in - tried a load of different ones but they can't do a steak like the burnt pan - Even a £90 SKK Scandinavian grill pan doesn't.

New laptop, sorry for the potato pic. Old 13" laptop feels sooooo much larger all of the sudden.

Oooo that laptop looks sleek/small
Put in a new mirror, also replaced the old horrible radiator cover....
As the old rad cover was high and the previous owner only wallpapered up to it I've shimmed the height up with some skirting (mitred/ glued/painted beneath)
The 60 quid cover and old skirting Beats the £210 the Internet wanted for an appropriate height one customised :x
(rad cover was in situ in the latter photo and hadn't been fixed in)

I've probably doubled the thickness by adding the case but it's thin enough even with that, it's loose in all my existing 13" bags and sleeves.

I just got a new work laptop too. Not as pretty as a Mac but still pretty. Dell XPS 15 9570, i7 8750H, 32GB memory, 1050ti

That Dell is a nice spec, but then it wants to be for over £2k retail
