Freda Lau 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2011 Does the Eubiq have electricity running through the strip 24/7? As in if let's say a kid was to put his/her finger into the slot, will they get electrocuted? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hafiizh 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2011 There are two types - the always on (my kitchen) and the plug in type (think overly expensive extension cords). As to the always on, I tried jamming my fingers in but no shocks so far. Supposed to have a failsafe but just remember japan's nuclear plant also supposed to be earthquake proof. So I take guarantees with a pinch of salt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ely1 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2011 jaskel >> yeah thks for the reminder. i don't think i'll be pluggin in all my plugs and turning them on at once though. the advantage of the eubiq is really you can move the plug along the strip so there's no fixed plug points. it's perfect for my kitchen island especially since I don't have a counter - so the island doubles up as a counter/dining table.neo >> i think if she reads this, then i will lose (my life) hahahere's something for all you techies out there - a simple stand can turn your modern kitchen into a smart kitchen! <img src="http://www.renotalk.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_qABf0xE7w4g/TaMC9vbLG_I/AAAAAAAABzU/tWbOCsfrRUM/s640/1000002316.JPG" border="0" class="linked-image" />This week is more of a shopping week (wallet pain!) so here are some of the purchases we made. It's very fun but leaving it to the last part makes you really count the pennies (which is the prudent way).Purchases from Iwannagohome<img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_qABf0xE7w4g/TaMCTJypqXI/AAAAAAAABzQ/gDqEH41w2sA/s640/1000002314.JPG" border="0" class="linked-image" />Purchases from IKEA<img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_qABf0xE7w4g/TaMDmFmFo6I/AAAAAAAABzY/Wo7CNi_LbQ8/s640/1000002318.JPG" border="0" class="linked-image" />Awesome use of the iPad stand.

Let me add to them - they were efficient, polite and value for money. I will definitely recommend them for your moving needs. So here's our staged bedroom (our bedsheets are usually left unmade one). Still lacking side tables as you see.We will be adding them as we go along. Lots to do next week. Blinds and bedroom doors. I have to set up my lighting for the kitchen island. Not to mention the laundry, vacuum (lucky got the Navi robot to do it for me) and mop, wiping down our cupboards and putting everything behind the wardrobe doors away from sight. Until then my wife has banned me from posting any 'unstaged' photos here. But we are nearing the 125 day mark and that's when we will be having our official housewarming (hopefully). Thanks for reading - more details in my blog or just post them here and I promise I will try and answer them to the best of my ability.Hope you're enjoying the long Easter weekend.

Same as may dream. Congrats!!! Love your bar stools. You and your wife are very considerate persons! Thumb up!!! The prices at Gnee Hong are fix price or can be nego? Just curious. Keen to buy some stools if budget permitted in later part.Anyway, how much you being charged by Helping Hands? Are they ok with handling arts paints stuff and also glasses??? I have something to move over to my new place after reno but not now....Maybe few months later..Cheers:) Emobebe Edited April 24, 2011 by emobebe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ely1 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2011 Love the bar stools! Nothing to steal from me My decor is so boring cookie-cutter black/white/grey, and many pieces from Ikea. Funny about the "staged bedroom" - our bed is always made because The Husband is pedantic I tend to stage home pictures by moving vases of flowers around, opened magazines, flipped over books, coffee cups~-Ely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
