ALDI: Home Automation Kit $39.95

  • Control your appliances remotely via radio frequency out of the line of sight
  • Great for turning on the lights before you enter your home or starting the kettle from the comfort of your lounge chair
  • Includes 5 receivers and 1 remote
  •  

    This was a fantastic purchase, I have four on outside lights around the house and one on the rainwater tank pump.

    ALDI: Taurus Electric Staple Gun $19.99
















    You need to be patient using this tool - it jams staples.

    To minimise this I found I have to break off some staples from each row, about 3 or 4 mil. As with any stapler you need to press down firmly to get the staples to bed down.

    Some people have had trouble obtaining staples for this unit but I had no problem at Bunnings.

    Comments to come...

  • A3 chrome plated steel roller
  • A3 black powder coated steel stand
  • Max load capacity: 60kg
  • Vertical adjustment: 680-1080mm

    I bought this to be a companion to my 210mm mitre saw - very handy.

  • ALDI 5.8GHz AV Sender and Receiver $89.00

     

     
  • Send signals from any AV source to a TV or stereo wirelessly
  • Connect to DVD player, cable TV, digital TV or music CD
  • Crystal clear 5.8GHz frequency

  • This purchase was a disaster - and I bought two of them!
    I was hoping to replace the existing AV wireless system (<--link here) with these 5.8GHz units.
