Al's Workshop update

The RGB LED strip lights have finally arrived !!!

After Easter shopping trip

Become the norm now to carefully plan each outing!

First to Brandon park to get two boxes of my favorite Malaysian $ Sri Lankan food from Martisz Kitchen before the close up - they were closed. Got some from my other favorite  one next door – Eastern Chinese. Off all the way to the other end to Home Ideas to get picture hardware but again already closed - reduced hours.

Off to Wheelers Hill shopping centre for the main shopping and got most of what was on the list, eggs and rice shelves nearly stripped. On the way out checked at the counter and was able to get hand sanitiser !!!

Then off to Bunnings Scoresby to get cans of spray paint and small wood screws. On the way in had to dodge a camera crew interviewing a staff member. On the way out got waylaid by the same camera crew wanting to interview customers so agreed to that. Basically questions about customer experience with Bunnings management of distancing and aisle monitoring with limit of four persons etc. along with do you think it's a good thing that Bunnings is still open for business,

This is simply just-in-case-mitigation that Bunnings and other big stores should shut down - not essential. Anyway for my time was handed a blank envelope that contained a $20 note !!!

Al's Workshop update

Been another busy day but took time off this afternoon to absorb sunshine with ET and the doggies and the chooks along with a bit of pruning.

Al's Workshop updates

Finished the NOAH & KOBE USB lights, they will likely fly off in the direction of Geelong tomorrow afternoon.

Also had some more Batman enquires with two confirmed and happy to wait for the battery LED strip lights rather than USB - slow boat from China.

Finally got a AustPost status update on those bloody lights I have been waiting for - expected delivery now 14th - 15th.

After spending time getting answers from Kmart that the USB LED strip lights 3M are due end April early May. I checked this evening and that item has been pulled from the website, the 5M is still available but don't want that - bugger. I'll just have to rely on the Glen Iris eBay supplier.

Interesting that while responding to those new enquiries people are interested in the USB version with on-board rechargeable battery so I'll pursue the PowerBank thing some more.

Ready to box up then off to the post office.

Easter Sunday 2020

Easter Sunday and our traditional egg fights around the dining table. ET did her bit and they are ready where is everyone ???

Batman lights - second lot (part 6)

Installing KOBE's led strip lights, this will be finished around lunchtime tomorrow at which time I'll happily contact the customer who is coming from Geelong to collect.

This is the 2nd time doing the USB version so it's easier going in particular mounting the IR controller.
