Don’t have a charger to charge the battery (see previous post) so may as well position to get the afternoon rays.

Return faulty Solar light
While at Bunnings getting a refund to buy another solar post light the front garden we ended up coming home with some other stuff.
Purchase new solar light
With the $40 refund money from the previous Solar Magic Post Light off to Bunnings to buy the latest offering, or replacement - for $25. As usual went to pull the batteries out to charge them so we could use the light for the first nightaway. Strange...there's only one battery ??? Pulled it out to discover it's a Li-ion 14500, 3.2V @ 600mA. Oh well...back to sun light, I’ll have to research buying a charger.

Balcony PC upgrade ?
Mulling over getting a new i7 tower to replace the Balcony PC which is a Scorptec E5200/G31M-SL2/4GB/GT210 about 8 years old. Meanwhile...we could jazz up the current one so ordered a Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 2.8 GHz 3 MB Cache 1066 MHz FSB LGA 775 CPU Processor from a NSW eBay guy for $8.90. If this works out I'll get a 120/250GB SSD and maybe do another CPU upgrade.
