The weather has been warm these days, with temperatures reaching more than 30°C at night.

Thanks to Synced for sending me the perfect gadget, Torras Coolify Portable Air Conditioner, for review during these warm days.

Bought the AhaStyle MagSafe Charger Stand from Souky’s Store in Shopee for S$14.99.

It is a no-frills MagSafe charger stand that is made from aluminum and silicone.

I think Keychron K7‘s battery life is bad. Using it for about 8 hours a day, it could not even last through a 5-day work week on a single charge.

I disabled the auto-sleep mode because, for some reason, when the keyboard wakes up from sleep, it refuses to connect back to my MacBook Pro via Bluetooth.

Bought the Elgato Stream Deck MK.2 from Amazon.sg for S$203.59.

Shipping is free from Amazon US since the purchase is above S$60, and I am an Amazon.sg Prime member.

Windows 11 is available starting today. The rollout will start with a free upgrade on eligible Windows 10 PCs and new PCs pre-installed with Windows 11.

So you can’t buy Windows 11 off the shelf yet.

After bricking my Nest Hello, I decided to get the Eufy Video Doorbell 2K (Wired) from Eufy US Website. I chose Eufy after reading Domotics review on Eufy Doorbell 2K (Wired). The author, Mike, also encountered the same thing with his Nest Hello Doorbell (Wired). He eventually gave up and bought a Eufy Video Doorbell 2K (Wired). So I thought, it works for him, it should work for me.

I paid US$115.48 (S$156) for the Eufy Video Doorbell 2K (Wired). That is after a US$40 discount from their retail price of US$155.48. Shipping from my freight forwarder, HopShopGo, to Singapore is an additional US$19.96 (S$27) via DHL.

It has been a while since I bought a keyboard, and recently, I have seen all the hype about Keychron keyboards.

So when Keychron started a Kickstarter project for the Keychron K7 65% Wireless Mechanical Keyboard, I backed it immediately.

Bought the Google Nest Hub (2nd Generation) from a Lazada store named Project KR for S$99.99 during their flash sale on 9th September 2021. Shipping is free since I have collected the free shipping voucher. If not, it will be S$1.49.

For S$99.99, it is an excellent deal since, in the US, it is already selling for US$99.99, and you have not factored in shipping to Singapore yet.

The next day after publishing my Installing Nest Hello Doorbell To HDB BTO Doorbell post, my Nest Hello Doorbell decided to give up on me.

I received the Nest Hello Doorbell (Wired) on 7th September 2021, and on 9th September 2021, the first problem occurred. There is no ring light around the Nest Hello. I restart the Nest Hello by switching on and off the transformer plug, and it works great after that.
