    MikroTik Load Balance and FailOver

    Ok, I just don't want to buy another setup if the Mikrotik can do what I need. Also, isn't bonding impossible with 3 different ISP's?

    MikroTik Load Balance and FailOver

    Hello everyone! I am still an extreme noob and was hoping I'd get some answers here. I have three internet lines (yes, three, because we have no fiber in town and everything else is unstable so I have different types so I can hopefully have internet at all times). 1. Pure DSL through Afrihost...

    FNB Gold Fusion

    Hi everyone. I am wondering. A collegue of mine said he generates more ebucks using his fusion account than he did with his cheque account. I am moving from Absa to FNB, so I took a Gold Fusion account. Fine there (absa banking fees are rediculous) Anyway, my husband has a gold cheque and a...

    Figure 8 power cords

    Ok yes, that sounds like an idea, having the one cable go to the cabinet.

    Figure 8 power cords

    Thanks a lot. I joined 2 figure 8 cables into one plug. I also thought of using a cable tie to keep the cables together close to the plug. My only fuss is getting that many cables into the prongs. It gets very thick.

    Figure 8 power cords

    Ok great. I have my wiring certificate. Had it done after we expanded the plugs and lights and so forth. Everything is on standard and safe as far as direct wiring goes in the house. This is literally the only 'odd' homemade thing we'd have now. Apart from removing two point plugs and adding...

    Figure 8 power cords

    Question: On a figure 8 cale, how do you determine which one is neutral and live when plugging it in? The actual sealed cable. Or does that not make a difference?

    Figure 8 power cords

    This idea also seems viable. Thank you. Now just to find a place that sells them. I basically have used Takealot. Browsed raru, awx, wootware, landmarkpc (closed down) and loot. Any other suggestions? Unless there is a place open in Jhb tomorrow where I can buy?

    Figure 8 power cords

    Any places around Royal Reef West that might sell the 3 figure 8 power cord or something close to it? Seeing as I am going to be on Jhb anyway

    Figure 8 power cords

    I keep fridges on their own plugs, away from any other appliances. Can you link an example of the clearline one you are talking about?

    Figure 8 power cords

    Well, even if you only add the maximum amp load of a figure 8, x 3 it gives 7.5amp. none of the items should go over the 2.5amp the cable can take. Or am I being too dumb? Yep. I always use a picture grid, just for safety[emoji23]

    Figure 8 power cords

    Cool. Then all should be good. I will test each plug on the cheapest item to replace first. Haha. Just for incase. Not the first time I am removing 2 prong plugs and adding a 3 prong. The 2 prongs are a pain the bum. Unless I can replace the specific wall plug with one that has like 4x 2 prongs...

    Figure 8 power cords

    This should be fine with the soundbar using a power brick? Still a figure 8 chord that plugs into it.

    Figure 8 power cords

    Awesome. And no problems? This is what I want. I want to make 2. One with three of them (TV, Xbox, PS4) and one with two of them (soundbar and subwoofer - we occasionally move them when having a braai)

    Figure 8 power cords

    Have that at the moment. It's just so unsightly. I have trunking running down from the top to the bottom, but our TV stands are open at the bottom to help with cleaning. It's home made - like a table, but nicely sized for our setups. It's about 60cm just four legs, so you can see the plug...

    Figure 8 power cords

    Yes, that should be good. I was even thinking going for a 30amp plug. Just to be extra safe.

    Figure 8 power cords

    No, not that one. This one: https://m.takealot.com/raz-tech-euro-figure-8-power-cord-2-pin-c7-c8/PLID41165654 But 3 of them on one plug

    Figure 8 power cords

    Ok yes. The cables will stay seperate, just be combined at the plug itself.
