I have a similar lego thingy!! But it's for salt and pepper!! Hehehehe...

By the way, I see that you have so many lights at home. Where is a good place to go hunt for interesting lights? Bot too loud kind but classic with a modern touch.

There isn't a single shop... you will need to walk about, and buy according to your own style and budget.

I went to at least six shops.

I have listed those which I used myself, but my contractor also supplied some from his own sources.

YMMV

HKG airport, shop next to the SIA lounge...

Amazon has a version with the older iphone 4 30 pin socket.

Will ship to Singapore, but you better check the voltage... the HKG one works fine locally.

Some basic tips on entering the world of home theatre for our renovation enthusiasts..

[petetherock 13]

So the cables for your home theatre system are laid and the silly electrician forgot to label the cables... what can do you?

A simple tip to test your speaker connections if one is not sure where the cables go:

Take a AA battery and press the black and red cables to each end.. Listen for the pop sound from the speaker and you will know where the connections lead to..

And if you are not sure whether the polarity is correct, the plus and minus leads on the battery correspond correctly when the speaker cone pops out towards you.
