2 watts

Ok here is how 2 watts of LED power look like ......

Just dim enough for my liking....

Making the place conducive & seductive...

Step down

The original bulbs were 50 watts and that means they were sucking a lot of juice...... To make the room cooler and also to save some coins along the way, I have switched to osram 20 watters @ $2.90 each....

If you are the true and one kind of green person, your choice will be LED replacements: 3.6 watts!!!!!! But at $26.... !!!!

I guess it only makes sense if you use it for perhaps 5 hours a day..?????

Cost vs efficiency..... That's always the challenge we face

Fibre link

Ok just received my monoprice toslink by mail.... And it will be used to connect the mio box to the onkyo av amp .....

Let's see if I can get f1 in 5.1 ......

Plus one

Collected the free hdmi cable from da store this afternoon.....

Better than having nothing .......

Beware

Beware: market values & subsidies are dirty words .......

Don't let them confuse you with saying a lot without actually telling you anything......

One bulb

Walked past a basement shop that specialises in LED bulbs: they have standard replacement for fluorescent tubes, halogen bulbs, incandescent bulbs etc....

At first I was only curious and so I stood outside to read the pastes brochure .... How about a 3 year warranty? Not bad huh....

So I bought 2 of the smallest 1 LED bulb which will replace some the energy sucking halogen bulbs in the listening room.....

Power output? 1 watt.....!!!!!

Motive murk

When a dealer "shares" the virtues of his products in discussion threads, it's only reasonable for others to question his motive......

It's as simple as that...... Just take it with a large pinch of salt ok?

help me?


with 2 races to go, how do we expect the drivers to act..........?????

massa has no chances at all so he can only affect others' chances........

button has a slim chance but only if everyone else ahead of him crashes for all of 2 races......... and that's unlikely to happen.......

vettel still has a good chance so he will fight....... i guess he will secure the pole position in interlagos.............

hamilton has a good chance and he's not giving up......... even though uncle lee has ordered kopi sua for him, i dun think that will come true.....

webber is pretty close and the car is still good......... next to alonso, he's the best bet.......

alonso...??? using race-weary engines will be his big worry........... he may be leading the points but any blow up will cripple his effort to win his 3rd world championships.......
