    Sony TVs in South Africa

    Hi all, Anyone know what the deal is with getting a Sony tv? Only Incredible Connection and Hi Fi Corp seems to sell them but you can't even buy any of the ones from IC because they aren't in any of the stores except one specific branch in East London, and Hi Fi Corp only has like 4 models.

    UV photography recommendations/help

    I have a Nikon D750. The thing is I don't want to shoot the UV light itself, just the fluorescence of things. So the camera would capture the visible spectrum light like normal. My issue is trying to make sure the light absorbed by the subjects is 100% (or as close to 100% as I can get it) UV

    UV photography recommendations/help

    Hi all. I am thinking of trying my hand at UV photography to capture fluorescence. From what I understand, I would need the following: 1. A UV light source (e.g. scorpion torch) 2. A UV pass filter that lets through UV light but not visible light to account for the light source not being 100%...

    Portable Power Stations

    Looking to get one of these for a week long trip off the grid. Will need it to charge phones and laptops but not much else. I already own a generic 100W solar panel (22V VOC, 5.78A Isc, 18.2V Vmp, 5.49A Imp) which would be the primary source of recharging. From what I can tell, this panel might...

    Graphics card repairs in Cape Town?

    Yeah, my warranty is already expired unfortunately. I tried that but I can't get the thing open because one of the screws is messed up and I'd rather not force it. Also have no experience with these things would rather an expert do it. Thanks, will check them out.

    Graphics card repairs in Cape Town?

    Hi all, I have a 2019 model Acer Predator Helios 300 that came with a Nvidia GTX 1060 card. Recently, the fan of the GFX card has stopped working and I can no longer play games or the laptop overheats and shuts down. I have no idea if something broke, if the joints need lubrication, if it's just...

    Nintendo switch ethernet adapter

    From reddit it appears that the ASIX AX88772 and ASIX AX88179 chipsets will work. Trouble is the Takealot and Computer Mania ones don't say which chipsets those adapters have

    Nope 2 Ghz, but wired would be more stable in general so I figured that would be best

    Nintendo switch ethernet adapter

    Hello all, so with Smash Bros coming up I wanna join in online but the trouble is my wifi doesn't co-operate so well with my Switch. I am planning to try and go the wired route but for that I need a usb-to-ethernet adapter. I have seen a few on Takealot and ComputerMania but how do I know which...
