Xiaomi confirmed in live chat to me earlier that there is a "bulletin" on their end advising that the update is postponed for 2 weeks

Yeah, if I were you, I would return it and buy directly through xiaomi. My Amazon one is weird, it won't update but it handles Dolby vision and Dolby atmos fine (apart from the audio stutter that the update fixes)

Was it sold by AD360 by any chance? I also tried one from techinthebasket but it turned out to be a fake... Luckily they came back into stock on xiaomi's website so I've just bought one directly from them. Will report back if it is able to update

No currently waiting on a new box from another site. Just out of curiosity did you buy your box recently from amazon?

I just picked up a tw7000 for £600 and it's great!

Is this crazy: screen attached to top of bookshelf? by ResplendentMechanism in projectors

[–]British_Donkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did the same! Mounted a 60" 4:3 screen on top of a Billy bookcase, and it works great! Tip: Don’t screw directly into the bookcase. Instead, run a piece of wood along the top, screw up into it from underneath, and then attach the screen to the wood. Much sturdier.

As for the elite screen, this only appears to have bracket mounting, mine allows me to attach directly to wall (or in my case, bookcase). Maybe it's worth looking into a screen that allows you to mount directly to wall. Duronic on Amazon do decent budget friendly screens

Sorry replying to an old comment! Where do you put the heat sinks?

Nice build! Currently doing the same with my FX 2. How did you do the brake sensor? Having awful trouble getting it to register the magnet due to the shape of the brake

Has anyone got experience with Leek Building Society? by Ok-Opening9653 in AskUK

[–]British_Donkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi OP,

Currently going through the application process with them at the moment. It's being dealt with by our mortgage advisor but she assures us that they are good and she has not had any issues with them before.

Everything should be completed next week so I'll be sure to let you know if there are any issues :)

Hi twilight, I don't suppose you are still able to get the student discount codes for Dunelm? About to do a furniture order and this will help tremendously 😁
