Images of items I have purchased (except trainers)

Game changer for me, got mine In February. Pop a mesh system in like Deco and you can ignore the WiFi coverage groans on other forums

See the Unifi Dream Machine and Access point from last week

Starlink arrived. Annoyingly Google Chrome changed the account name from my wife to me after i'd entered her details when i used autofill down the page. I tried to change it after placing the order but they wouldn't do it, and said i needed to just re-order and then return the wrong one. Seems a huge waste of time!

What's the performance like? Latency?

I bought a knob. A shiny, round, knob. A knob that feels nice when your wrap your hand around it. A knob that is nice to manipulate.

@Martynt74 Just to check you know your address is on there...

No clue yet, likely won't have it running until next weekend. It's meant to be reasonable though.

Good point, although it's a rental and i leave in a week, so screw it

Out with the old (NiteCore i4) and in with the new (XTAR X4)

Nitecore served me well for about 10 years but was starting to fall apart.

Love the Xtar chargers. The ability to do a charge, run-down, charge cycle is very useful for seeing whether the capacity of the battery has dropped.

A controller holder... This is the way...

@Raymond Lin hopefully you didn't order a KK3 Max controller, a week later of usage and mine started to have creaky shoulders and triggers, seems the QC is terrible so I ended up returning it

On the flipside I was sent the EasySMX X10 to test and it's genuinely excellent, much like the GameSir Cyclone Pro I bought before the KK3 but with a more refinements so I've decided to just keep the X10 as the main controller and bung off the rest.



Oh no.... It was the first controller I bought and returned within a month. The quality is terrible, cheap plastics and creaking joins and rough feeling sticks due to no anti-friction rings

I literally got the x10 yesterday - its really good.
The app is garbage but i don't see me using it. Hopefully they make a windows app soon - might be useful for remapping buttons. I'm not actually sure how the back paddles work.

That looks like a lovely knob, bet it feels great

Had to return the Mandalorian controller holder due to QC issues This was not the way.... Got a basic one instead, seems just better tbh, the KISS method once again at work.

what holder is that? i could do with a simple one

Yeah the app will only get used here and there to check for firmware updates really. The remapping of the back buttons is really easy, you'll find instructions in the manual but basically it's hold the cog button for 5s until light flashes green, press the back paddle to remap, then press the button you want it to copy, then press the cog button to apply the change and the flashing green light returns to normal.

It's not super cheap, but it is good quality.

When you buy a new mtb helmet for going away, go away and leave the new one behind and have to buy another one

Is this your first knob?
Quite the bulbous "tip" you have there.
Did the postman post the knob through your letterbox? Or was too big had to go through the back door?

Took a pic of my neighbour's dog recently, ordered a print and put it in a frame I had in a cupboard:

I wasn't home so my wife took it in via the back door.

This conversation has certainly gone up a gear!
