Taobao product recommendation – Rice weevils eradicator
I’m usually not too bothered about rice weevils, except when i see their population explode. This happened to a pack of noodles in my pantry. I will still consume the noodle, except i have to rinse the noodles like twenty times to get rid of the rice weevils (by the way the presence of rice […]

Taobao product recommendation – Mechanical timer
Some time back i recommended getting a cube timer as a time keeping tool for students. Well, my kid managed to crashing onto the floor, knocking out the buzzer in the process, so it’s pretty much rendered useless. There was actually an alternative product which i also liked, which i purchased this time round. The […]

Taobao product recommendation – waist fan
I first came across the idea of wearable fan years ago when Kuchofuku invented the “air-conditioned” jacket (the article mentions the invention came about way back in 2004). Since then the idea was stuck in my mind. I need such a contraption as i tend to perspire a lot. (Visited 110 times, 1 visits today) […]

TnG card top up via Self-Service Kiosk

Taobao product recommendation – Low power wireless camera
The Ring camera was probably among the first battery powered wireless cameras launched, back in 2013. Since then, they have been proven to actually work, which is amazing. Operating on a battery, it is truly wireless and can be mounted anywhere. I use two VStarcam security cameras, one indoors and the other semi-outdoor, and they […]

Taobao product recommendation – Japanese style deep frying pot
Some time ago i bought an electric deep fryer. While it is still relevant, it is more suited to doing deep frying for a small party. You can basically set a reminder and leave it frying on its own while you entertain your guests or do other chores. It is also relatively smokeless. Nevertheless, the […]

Taobao product recommendation – Remote control duplicator
I have quite a few Europace tower fans at home. The annoying thing is, the remote control breaks down easily. It costs $10 to buy a replacement from Europace, which is bloody expensive. I tried getting a universal remote some years ago but it didn’t work. Thankfully, there’s a much better alternative now – a […]

Taobao product recommendation – mobile phone replacement battery
My phone has been in use for more than two years. You probably know that the phone battery life deteriorates over time. In my case, it has come to a point where I need to charge the phone in multiple ten-minutes bursts towards the end of the day, and that’s annoying. As you also know, […]
