TV Table Mount?

Uniwalker — Wed, 27 Jun 2018 14:28:00 +0800

Hi guys, settled,on upgrading to a new TV (60’ Sharp LC60UA6800X) but the default table mounts provided are in two pieces and will support the Tv near the edge vs via a central column. Unfortunately, my current TV cabinet isnt long enough for the mounts because of this design (short by 4 inches). Any sifu have any ideas on how to get around this? I have seen some OEM mounts that use the wall mount slots but connect into a table mount, are these reliable?

Induction Vs Gas Cooker

Uniwalker — Mon, 11 Jan 2016 10:59:51 +0800

My induction cooker ( quite nice one, it was in the house from the former owner), is suddenly giving me problems. I checked with the Fagor service centre, and repair would cost me around 1K. Any ideas whether this is worth it?

Bear in mind, I probably won't be able to buy such a 'nice' induction cooker, within my budget, maybe have to switch to a gas cooker. If it's a gas cooker, any good brands out there ( I know there's a discussion topic out, but can't find it!!), and recommended place to get them in the PJ/KL area? Thanks!

Anyone know of a good way of getting rid of bedbugs and dust mites?

Was interested in the Sharp machine, until i found out it's a staggering RM1699. Siao....need a cheaper ( and tried and tested ) alternative.

Some people say steam vacuum. Anyone know/done it in Malaysia?

Anyone know where I can get bench cushions? Saw some in ikea but they're going for RM250. Abit mahal lah. Normally must custom make? Or do they have standard sizes?

Hi guys,

I want to terminate my unifi VIP5 line. Just want to check whether anyone knows :-

a) if there is a notice period before termination? e.g. 1 month from visiting TM
b) do I have to physically go to a TM Point to terminate?
c) do I have to bring my BTU, router, etc...?

Thanks in advance!

Anyone have any comments/ideas about this router?

Was looking around and got recommended. Supposedly it can give a good signal to the back room from the unifi router if it's in the living hall downstairs....

Homeplug for Gaming/PS4/IPTV

Uniwalker — Mon, 23 Nov 2015 13:06:04 +0800

Hi guys,

Doing some house reno atm, and have been given an option to create a network point from downstairs, where the router is, to the hall upstairs. I'm trying to be cheapo and save money lah, so not sure if I just use Homeplugs ( there should be 3 phase wiring, but some TP-Link ones supposedly can be used on 3 phase already), I'll get a reasonable performance from online gaming/PS4 Spotify/IPTV?

Any gurus out there can help?

LED Downlights

Uniwalker — Tue, 27 Oct 2015 22:17:12 +0800

Hi Sifus,

From what I read on this forum, those quality/branded lights are preferred over cheap(er) ones for LED lights due to lastability and brightness over the lifetime of the bulb. Any idea where to get good LED downlights at a bulk discount ( 30-40 lights) and how much it will be? Are IKEA LED Lights considered of good
quality?

TQ!

Unifi30Mbps and Gaming

Uniwalker — Fri, 02 Oct 2015 14:19:13 +0800

Hi,

I'm currently frustrated at the shitty latency that I get ( on the crappo DR 615) on my Unifi VIP5 when I'm trying to play Diablo 3 or Heroes of the Storm, but my wife and kid start surfing blogs or youtubing. Would upgrading to Unifi30mbps ( with the 5mbps upload) solve the problem of simultaneous usage of the bandwidth, or am I still going to suffer? Don't want to spend money to get shit.

Would changing the router help? Maybe one with QOS?

Thanks in advance!!!
