DeWALT 1850W 210mm Table Saw $684 @ Bunnings ($581.40 via Price Beat at Mitre 10)
I got an ad for this at The ToolShed, checked Bunnings, and found they'd already beaten the price! I'm not sure of the original price, but…

I also had success with the laminate trimmer at Petone Mitre 10. The price at Bunnings has dropped to $378, but Mitre 10 only dropped…

It’s a good deal if you’re after this specific router, but I wouldn’t choose it over the GL.iNet Beryl AX, even at this price. Not…

Should definitely be a deal. I bought at Mitre 10 last weekend and price beat Sydney Tools, exactly as described. For the price, it’s…

These do work with Home Assistant out of the box. They can’t be easily flashed to run ESPHome, but that’s very different to no…

I use them with Local Tuya. They auto configure to expose a switch, current, power usage, power, and voltage. They also have power on…

Does anyone have a spare NZ BookMe code?

I usually buy three layer jackets and prefer Goretex, though there are also decent lighter jackets that aren’t quite as hardy. I usually…

It's not always that straightforward. Tuya patched the vulnerability mid last year, and it only works with ESP8266 (and maybe ESP32?)…

libgen isn’t just public domain, it’s mostly pirated content. Project Gutenberg is public domain.

Alex commented on $20 Credit @ Mevo
Thanks! There’s a two week expiry when it’s activated, so I assume the code itself expires on 13 February.

This camera also works with the ONVIF Scrypted plugin, so you could set it up to stream to HomeKit Secure Video if you had a…

The code got noticeably worse about a month ago. I find myself using SCQ222 more than anything else, especially on name-brand items.

I helped a friend with an identical install. We ended up finding a small switch that provided 802.3at, and we used an EdgeRouter X. The two…

This is a little harder to answer. WiFi is the most confusing protocol, as some devices will only authenticate through the cloud, while…

This is basically the only answer. The only thing to note, and I’m not sure whether it applies to your device, is that some manufacturers…

As an aside, unless you’re specifically after the better camera, you’re desperate for the ProMotion display, or your current phone…

It works perfectly for that! The latest update lets you easily switch between multiple Google accounts, so you can download and…

Then we’re comparing apples and oranges. I’m sure you could find a receiver with eARC + speakers for the right price, but there are…
