Telstra T-box and watching IPTV

This is the Balcony area and that's the Soniq TV and the T-box 2 underneath in the unit. I am on the Windows desktop PC loading m3u8 URL's into Internet Explorer.

The examples are UK Sky News. Back soon with more nifty stuff...

Nature strip shrub edging

Finished putting the edging around the replacement nature strip shrub to contain the mulch.

Now I can trim and mow without making a mess. I'll send this photo off to Kay who manages the tree planting program in Monash.

Bunnings shopping

Waiting for ET in the garden section of Bunnings and I already
have my stuff which is for the replacement nature strip shrub planted three months ago. This is a 'fix up' and I'll be sending photos to Kay who is in charge of the tree planting program at Monash.

This to go around the replacement shrub. Why am i doing this?

Monday shopping trip

Doing our usual Monday trip to Wheelers Hill which BTW is the only place ET will get her Tattslotto from. She must be onto something cos we often have smaller winnings that would have covered a fair chunk of the outlay. Today the trolley is full of stuff - for a reason.

Why do we have so much this Monday?

LW-K3010D power supply - further testing.

As this point I'm not interested in load testing but rather will this power supply be suitable for the type of work I want to do which is low voltage low current - working with LED lighting. Typically 3V, 4.5, 5V and some 12V stuff. So the question is current resolution, how low will it resolve down to?

On the left and just unpacked is a new set of Fairy lights powered by 2 x AA battery box.I tapped into the + supply wire to connect the multimeter in series to measure current with it set on 0.25A or 250mA. The current drawn is just below 100mA.

Another new toy for kitties.
