TightAl on Sony Alpha A6700 Mirrorless Camera (Body Only) $1,695 + Postage ($0 BNE C&C) @ VideoPro

Sony 18-105mm fixed F4 is a brilliant lens that covers everything and is ~$500. It's decently wide and has enough zoom to get by for most…

UncommonName on Sony Alpha A6700 Mirrorless Camera (Body Only) $1,695 + Postage ($0 BNE C&C) @ VideoPro

Yeh absolutely not. It's not even two years old - which is nothing in camera years. It's still got top-notch autofocusing plus IBIS which…

the correct way to do it is to usb-c dock and plug the mouse and keyboard into there, along with your power supply and monitor connections.…

Kango Cart on Azeada Shank Fast Charging 10000mAh AZ-P01 Power Bank $35 ($26.25 with Code) + $10 Delivery ($0 with $100 Order) @ Kango Cart

It has 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% written vertically on the picture.. How is it going to display 87% battery.. like a proper LCD?

Kango Cart on Azeada Shank Fast Charging 10000mAh AZ-P01 Power Bank $35 ($26.25 with Code) + $10 Delivery ($0 with $100 Order) @ Kango Cart

Calling that an LCD looks to be a stretch... It seems to just light up different words depending on the percent - it's identical to just…

Can get a Ugreen one with 30W on Amazon for $35 shipped... or INIU which has the same specs for $25.49 Terrible deal

huubang on Cygnett Volt 45,000mAh Power Bank (Black) $71+ Delivery ($0 C&C/in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

2.6 hours is assuming perfect efficiency, which doesn't happen. Charging a battery also becomes more difficult as the percentage increases…

Inthemix on Cygnett Volt 45,000mAh Power Bank (Black) $71+ Delivery ($0 C&C/in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

It depends on the airline - so you need to do some reading beforehand. Virigin for example is just declare at check-in. Each may have…

MattBrisSyd on Cygnett Volt 45,000mAh Power Bank (Black) $71+ Delivery ($0 C&C/in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

You use the base voltage of the underlying cell- which pretty much for all of them being lithium is 3.7V 3.7V * 45,000mAH = 166Wh. Such a…

Lps on Laser 20000mAh 100w Powerbank $75.65 ($73.87 eBay Plus) Delivered @ Laser eBay

You buy Laser stuff at Kmart / Officeworks, etc. I'd trust them before I trust some of the 'brands' I see on Amazon.

StevieRay on Yard Force 1200W Solar Power Station $299 ($269.1 after 10% Member Discount) + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ Mitre 10

Max draw would be for 30-60 seconds tops I'd imagine. Might be a bit long for a peak output..

UK manual mentions X-boost - I wonder if that's a copy of the Ecoflow tech? I'd be interested in knowing if it would run my coffee machine…

Froot Loops on Ecoflow Delta 2 Portable Power Station $999 Delivered @ EcoFlow-AU via Amazon AU

It has two USB-C 100W ports. USB-A is still useful- some LED lights, fans etc run on it

kekw on PNY GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER 12GB GDDR6X Dual Fan Graphics Card $857.65 ($837.47 eBay+) Delivered @ Smarthomestoreau eBay

I went from 3070 to 4080 Super and that was a moderate increase. I wouldn't be going less as the 3070 is still really good.

eBay prices were recently jacked due to a 10% off coupon.. sad the ACCC doesn't care about this.

highon2str on Bambu Lab 3D Printers: A1 Mini $329, A1 $499, P1P $749, P1S $899 + Shipping @ Bambu Lab

Don't discount using the AMS for supports either - if you're printing PETG use a PLA interface or vice versa - you can have zero support…

miicah on Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600MHz C18 RAM $106.73 Delivered @ Amazon AU

Agree - at least if its proper RGB you can turn down the intensity and pick a single colour. I just turn mine off.

Trawler on Lenovo Legion 7i Laptop (16", Gen 9) i9-14900HX, RTX 4070 8GB, 16GB DDR5 RAM, 512GB SSD $2880.85 Delivered @ Lenovo

Yeah agree - that $100 is worth it and better value

NuclearWessels commented on Lenovo Legion 7i Laptop (16", Gen 9) i9-14900HX, RTX 4070 8GB, 16GB DDR5 RAM, 512GB SSD $2880.85 Delivered @ Lenovo
Let down by the 16GB RAM and SSD - really would have expected 32GB RAM / 1TB SSD at this price point. Better value elsewhere in my opinion..

I can justify the cost given the time spent on the hobby and I prefer a solid 60fps and a better looking game.

1) Cloud printing isnt necessarily a con 2) Fairly sure LAN mode you only lose the phone app - you can still use remote control via the…

Yes. 99.9Wh so less than 100Wh. You can go up to 160Wh with some airlines if you declare -- but its a pain. 3.7V cell * 27000mAh = 99.9Wh

I've had a few branded USB-C docks burn out and I personally wouldn't trust a generic one with charging

You can also transcode to save bandwidth - my device can handle it fine but often crap hotel wifi etc can't.
