    Geyser and Solar Panel Question (thinking to start solar route)

    My solar geyser is only really useful in summer. In winter, I have to heat it up with the element. My geyser was also mounted outside my roof, and it loses a lot of heat in the winter's cold nights. If you do go that way, get a larger geyser than you use for electricity - maybe a 300 litre in...

    Toyota's website down?

    I've just tried to access https://www.toyota.co.za/ and it's not responding. A "dig" on Vodacom Business' DNS server says: www.toyota.co.za. 81 IN CNAME toyota-website.trafficmanager.net. but there is no resolution of toyota-website.trafficmanager.net. Earlier today I got sent a...

    Mr Shopper disappears with over R340,000 of customers’ money

    My wife is after a SMEG Cooker, and these chaps offer the best pricing I could find, operating out of Bloemfontein. On checking with our local store who claims he will beat any price, he says they are selling below his cost. Only then did I decide to double check. Site URL...

    Frequent Disconnections - FrogFoot Port Elizabeth

    I'm actually using their modem but managing it myself. (I removed all the TR69 stuff and certificates etc before connecting it the first time.) But there is no way using your own modem will cause this unless it's faulty - but you would know if it was that, I think. My disconnections have been...

    Frequent Disconnections - FrogFoot Port Elizabeth

    I know there is a thread about poor performance on FrogFoot, but the last few weeks I have been experiencing many "sessions" of disconnections. I may be stable for up to three days, and then the link will drop for 20 minutes, come back for 15 minutes, drop again for 3 minutes, and so on. I've...

    Are you brand loyal when it comes to filling your car?

    My vehicle uses diesel, which has UNregulated prices at the pumps. I go where the cheapest 50ppm diesel is sold. In Port Elizabeth that's at Andy's Truck Stop in Deal Party. I'm talking about a R1.50 difference per litre between them and my close-to-home petrol stations!
