I bought the Anker PowerLine+ Lightning Cable (0.9m) from Amazon for US$13.99 (S$19).

It doesn’t ship to Singapore directly, and hence I have to ship it to my freight forwarder, HopShopGo, and get them to shop to Singapore for me.

Bought the TP-Link 8-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch (TL-SG108) from Challenger at VivoCity for S$43 (member’s price: S$39).

This is my first TP-Link product and I will be using this switch for my new house.

Bought the Apple Magic Mouse 2 for S$119 because my old Magic Mouse had spoilt.

I am able to connect my old Magic Mouse to my iMac but when I move the mouse, the cursor still stays put. Tried changing batteries and even using a different Mac, both method didn’t work which makes me conclude that it is spoilt for good.
