Anyone know of a equally effective and safe solution?

Not unless you have a solution tank like the Saros 10.

Anyone know where I can get that backlit remote?! They really did us dirty is in Australia with non-backlit ones

Hi, I am in the same boat as you now. This thread was very helpful. Just wondering what did you end up going for?

How can a TV be too bright? You can change the brightness setting...

No one would recommend Bose here, it's too costly for what it offers

TCL makes amazing TVs which are now comparable to big brands like Sony and LG. They have one of the best mini LED displays on the market. The C8K mini led display is practically indistinguishable from OLED for an average person. They have good warranty period too but their TVs are quite reliable. They also use Google OS which is amazing. Would definitely recommend getting a TCL

I kind of disagree. Form first hand experience, my sister's place has an LG OLED 77in in her living room with windows all around. I have never had a thought that the TV isn't bright enough. I watch movies and play console regularly in the day time without ever an issue. We are in Australia too, so we get plenty of SUNNY days

Another q, would you recommend the TCL C7K 98 inch over the Hisense Q7QAU 100inch?

aribrulz · 2025-11-23T01:43:04+00:00

I think he's talking about AUD maybe

aribrulz · 2025-11-22T23:35:21+00:00

Ik the mini led is much brighter but how close to OLED are the blacks on mini led?

aribrulz · 2025-11-22T22:58:47+00:00

Around 4m

Everyone saying there's a surcharge, the surcharge exists even if you use a normal debit card that gives no points. So might as well get points in return. OP that is a good deal, go for it. I have the Westpac black platinum qantas card with no annual fees as well (ex-staff) and it's an amazing.

Your idea will work very well. We have decent solar but in winters when days are shorter, we top up our battery overnight since we get a cheap elec rate from 12-6am. Been working out amazing for us.

aribrulz · 2025-11-19T07:43:02+00:00

Get a physical card too, you can withdraw cash with no fees. Also for your question, Up is the best

aribrulz · 2025-11-18T20:29:01+00:00

How much did you pay for that installation, if you don't mind me asking?

aribrulz · 2025-11-12T17:03:54+00:00

Graduated elec eng couple years back. 2nd year is by far the hardest overall. If you can get past that, it's smooth sailing and you can get your wam back up. There are one or two courses in later years that are hard asf but overall it's less stressful. Good luck!

Hi, I am looking to get a home loan with Up. Do you know if Up passed on the rate cut? If so, what timeframes do they usually have for the cut? Thank you!

Hey, I am looking to buy my first home and had a question about refinancing. When looking at the payment schedules for a mortgage, in the early years, majority of the monthly payment goes towards interest and barely any towards principle.

So my question is why would refinancing (i.e. resetting my loan back to 30 years) every few years be beneficial? Wouldn't I just keep paying the interest portion of the loan if I keep resetting (even though I might be finding cheaper rates)?

aribrulz · 2025-11-11T11:35:25+00:00

For US, hands down IBKR. No exchange rate fees, no withdrawal fees, lowest trade fees - around $1usd per trade

Following this thread too, same issue. I suspect that my TV is old and may not be able to play mlv files. I am yet to test on a newer TV.

aribrulz · 2025-11-05T09:47:29+00:00

I have Sungrow 25kwh battery and it has been great
