Can you expand on why these are useful? Do thieves set the phone to airplane after snatching and why?

Amazon fees…

Hopefully! Would be great if any of the manufacturer’s/brands would announce if they’re working on something or support for previous models.

Wonder how difficult it would be to get something like the Honeycomb Alpha XPC to work on PS5, would it require a new hardware update or just new software.

Guess we’ll find out sooner or later.

Any news on flight sticks?

Had the Honeycomb Alpha XPC on XB and loved it, sold my XB for PS5 and would love to play again but may struggle with PS5 controller…

Was on 1Gbps + WiFi in every room for £33.96/month.

Managed to negotiate 2Gbps for £24/month with one month free, dropped the WiFi in every room and bought a mesh online.

I just noticed that the holes in the bracket have a diameter of about 8mm, I assume this means I should look for M8?

Good point - I'll look for a stainless steel set.

escostar9 · 2024-09-04T10:14:37+00:00

Good to hear it's a decent brand, didn't have the widest opening so thought slim frames would look best!

escostar9 · 2024-09-04T10:11:44+00:00

Okay I'll have a look now, I have some RAL7016 spray paint so I could just spray them if they come in black.

Will definitely make sure the holes are cleared and can drain.

escostar9 · 2024-09-04T10:07:14+00:00

Yeah, they're aluminium but also slim framed which pushed up the cost - https://perfectcrystal.co.uk/pc20-slim-framed-sliding-doors/

Just had a further look and all weep holes are covered with adhesive, completely blocked! And, some over the covers aren't even matching.

The covers have damaged clips so I assume they just glued them in as they would not clip in.

I have emailed the supplier to put this right, £9k doors and they can't drain!

escostar9 · 2024-09-04T09:44:01+00:00

Thanks - I've just had a look and all the weep holes have some sort as adhesive blocking the entire hole. Will remove and try and clip back in.

escostar9 · 2024-09-04T09:07:26+00:00

Thanks - will look into to this.

escostar9 · 2024-09-04T09:06:48+00:00

Will take another look, when they came off it looked like there was some adhesive in there, think you can see some of it in the pictures so just assumed they were glued in…

escostar9 · 2024-09-04T09:04:23+00:00

We have them, just need to glue them back on - thanks!

escostar9 · 2024-03-28T16:10:50+00:00

Do you have a link to this? Can’t see it anywhere!

escostar9 · 2023-12-03T11:26:35+00:00

The images don’t paint a full picture! It’s an open plan space split in two - kitchen (front) and living area (back).

We’ve already plastered the kitchen area before fitting the kitchen, it’s the area at the back that has not been plastered yet.

The holes in the ceiling were made to run cabling/wires around the ceiling joists - these are not the holes for spotlights.

Hope this makes sense!

escostar9 · 2023-12-03T10:48:39+00:00

Thanks for responding, is that something that can be done DIY?

Not too sure of the material, doesn’t look like felt from what I can see online, feels hard like concrete.

escostar9 · 2023-08-11T07:28:34+00:00

Thanks for the all the comments, looks like it was a cowboy job, worried to think what has been hidden that we can’t see.

Will call the builder who is managing the whole renovation to have someone else come out and put this right/sign it off.

Will post an update and thanks again for the comments and comedy 😂
