hi bro can pm me catalgue and pricing? im looking to get 2 ceiling fan with light, 1 for bedroom and another for dining area. so far i like fanco's modern and flush design but feel free to send me other good brands that have similiar design. Thanks

personally im not a big fan of ebay and the problems u encountered is 1 of the main reasons why. if your new as i was to ebay and has zero rating, you will have better luck getting the bots from US online retailers. theres lots of websites offering irobot and if lucky, you might chance upon some promos that can rival ebay prices.

im concur with kohsw vs pro-ebay tingshen importing bascially means having an uncertain life for the bot. uncertain if it will reach here in 1 piece, uncertain if problems wont arise, uncertain how to diagnose problems, uncertain how to get replacement parts and at what cost, uncertain how to repair with acquired parts. some uncertainty can be alleviated from detailed study but it will not be the 100% assureness of having local warranty and support. i do agree with tingshen in that ackerman has priced the bots too high. their price for the scooba can buy 3 scoobas at the price i imported for. my conclusion is i rather import and face the risk of a lemon bot. worst come to worst i will import another and if 2 times still suay, i will take it fate decree irobot is not for me

yes please print out whatever instructions you have and also to fully understand what is required in case the shop people dun understand english too well.

never used ariston b4 but i concur with the joven. the horizontal tank does not have thermostat and its programmed to heat to abt 65 deg if my memory serves me right. heating is at most 5 minutes for a decent warm bath and the insulation is good enough to keep it warm from early morn till when i knock off

i mounted my lcd myself and the best advice would be to get a friend to help. an extra pair of hands can hold the bracket in the desired spot while you drill pilot holes into the feature wall. last but not least u will need help to carry the lcd if its bigger than 32"

the roomba capacitor mod can be found all over SLT. its more commonly found vs the scooba capacitor. i think cost is $2.5 thereabouts its good but surprising news if the PSU is direct from irobot coz all along i had thought the local agent ackerman is the one to mod the PSU but of course with permission and instructions from irobot

the shop that helped me solder is further inside on 3rd floor. cant remem the unit though.. juz do like i did, walk around and keep a sharp eye out for soldering iron which is plugged in. also i paid 10 bucks per PSU mod which exludes the capacitor. overall still cheaper than a transformer and confirm use less electricity

my take is its good if u wana do spot cleaning on hardy stains. detergents does a better job over a big area

item no longer avail.

juz a comment abt the warranty being from irobot direct. i believe irobot do not entertain any oversea customers unless its gotten from the local authorised dealer. that is why they dont sell direct to international and official manuel states warranty void if shipped out of US, PSU modified etc there was an entity called gkrobot that used to be parallel importing, selling and providing warranty as a middle man but was stopped once local dealer found out.

i thought of doing tat but doing so means i be paying more for taxes so juz accept lor. the roomba 530 is not too bad a model to begin with anyway. docking statin and all is included. setting schedules is a luxury anyway.

i found 2 explaination of CIF. the customs website sibei cheem Vpost has the much easier understood one

update on my roomba sale. apparently borderlinx concierge got my order wrong and got for me a roomba 530 instead. By the time i found out item has already reached DHL warehouse and is currently under processing in prep to fly over. the 530 was gotten for USD299 and the shipping was abt USD30 but i will take some losses and let go for $400. am including also the 47uF 400V capacitor required to do the charger mod for local use. the item should reach my door by thurs/fri. my contact is 91821618 if anyone is interested.

my bad.. tot u were someone from hardwarezone forum.
