    Eco-Dry mini dehumidifier

    You can get it at any HomeFix DIY store. Seen plenty of them around. Cost $19+. I have 3 of them for use in my wardrobe. A bit troublesome to use though. Need to recharge the unit by plugging it into the AC power to dry the silica gel every few days but must say it seems to work as I don't get...

    which car is the most fuel efficient?

    Kah Motor sells both Auto and Manual. Manual $1k less than Auto. If I am not mistaken Jazz is all drum brakes at the back. If there are disk brakes at the back then it is probably a convert. This can be done. Just need $$$. A car shop in Ubi sells a conversion kit for $1700. :)

    Travel Restrictions & Camera Gear

    Hmm... :think: On my recent trip to US about 6 weeks ago, I tried to get insurance for my camera equipment worth about $6k but could find no insurance company who will insure the camera equipment. They only have general travel insurance and you can only claim for a total of about $4k total...

    LapTop Hinge repair/ replacement

    You can try the shop at Peninsular Shopping Centre, 3rd floor, above The Camera Workshop. You can get any laptop parts from them. Their prices might not be the cheapest but at least you can find it. :) I got a backlight tube from them once to replace my faulty one. You can go to their...

    SB-600 died from battery leak!

    Strange! Me too. Over the weekend I found a tripple A energizer e2 battery which had leaked too. Messed up my drawer! Expiry date 2010. I suspect that this could be an almost depleted battery that I chucked in there when it couldn't turn on my MP3 player. Usually this is around 1.2v or 1.3v...

    Shutter count for DSLR

    If you have a Nikon DLSR you might all want to try this program. I am using a D70 and it is able to display my internal shutter count. http://www.opanda.com/en/iexif/index.html I think it doesn't work with Canon DSLR though. My friends 300D doesn't have the shutter count field. Only...

    Canon Selphy CP-400 is pretty good...

    Great little printer. I must say I am impressed with the quality of the printout. It uses dye-sub technology and not inkjet so the colours are much better and will not run or smudge. :thumbsup: I was using a cannon IP4000 to print photos but it works out to be more expensive per piece...
