What New Stuff Have You Bought? If You Care To Share Thead! :)

For something to do, I ordered and received from Cable Wholesale, 2 five foot lengths of Internet shielded Cat 6a. UL/CSA approved...etc. Well, I wanted the best. The total cost was $14.56 shipped, from their warehouse in GA. There was no issue with their Shielded Cat 5e for movies from Netflix, Prime, Paramount+, Hulu, HBO/Starz, and Disney+. My wife's TCL Smart 4K TV, is internet/modem wireless, and has no internet Movie issues or otherwise.

The only other thing I'm thinking about, is a 45 gallon replacement Breeder size aquarium, for my one Southern Painted Turtle.

Ordered a new stove and microwave for the house for Black Friday.

Had to buy a new thermostat because the old one a battery corroded and ate through the contact completely. Found that out while replacing the filter in the HVAC, came back down to turn it on and the thermostat was dead.

Bought new xmas lights and put them up.

My brother has a power washer, we power washed the whole garage and frontage.

it was sort of a honey-do weekend

Will do, I’ve had both and most recently the 880. I haven’t used one in a couple of years and HDMi CEC has been limping me by, but still requires occasionally using up to 4 remotes to switch functions and sources.

I've got the last generation of Harmony remotes, so I've been eyeing possible replacements when the time comes. Sofabaton has been at the top of my list for a while. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts as well.

Well, you may want to bite the bullet. I looked at it and there is an extra $40 off for Cyber Monday, on top of the sale price.

I would, but I've got a backup remote in a box for every remote I have in use. If the Harmony service went offline I'd have no choice but to migrate to something new.

Fingers crossed that it won't happen before they all die of old age.

Yeah, kind of tempted by that for my X4800H but don't know when I would have the time to sit down and re-calibrate everything.

Right.

I just couldn't let the sale pass by without doing this. They only discount at BF. I'm hoping I have time to play on Wednesday as The Lady will be away.

Managed to order the Jurassic world ; rebirth 4k at black Friday prices. even if its not all that good it was cheap.($12.99). And I have been getting video withdrawal symptoms.

Who doesn't like dino movies...'OMG There's a din(CHOMP!...)?
...And it keeps the video library shelf semi- up to date.

Enjoy!

I’ve been contemplating getting ART but I’m perfectly happy with DLBC on my x3800h, and it’s just a living room system.

I won't do ART... for now, at least.
