I'm looking for best value for a power bank. Found this http://store.orange.com/za/mobile-p...bank-with-led-flashlight-2600mah-pink-255306/
I know it's pink, it's meant for gifts to my nieces.
Other then that what do you guys recommend.

No, that is a rubbish price! Unless your specifically want a pink one, rather get one of the Romoss power banks from Takealot. Spend R90 more and get double the capacity even!

Takealot giving us the worst daily deals after the Chromecast was so well received.

S510 v G5070? Any suggestions? Specs seem identical except that the G5070 can accept more RAM?

From what I've read, I'd stay away from anything Kalahari.

Check out the LG 23mp55hq on kalahari. It's 23' IPS for R2000.

If you're close to a china mall, have a look in the shops there. I found a 5600mah for ~R50 2 months ago.

R1600 is the "normal" price, that "was R2300" is BS IMHO see here: http://www.takealot.com/wd-my-book-essential-3-5-inch-usb-3-0-external-hard-drive-3tb/PLID32732407

+1 you can say that again! The following day they had a nice tablet thereafter things haven't been the same - stock of today's deals haven't moved much.

If you shop around you can pay probably between R1100 - R1300. Last year prices have gone we won't see 3TB hard drives on special again for R999

If you do consider buying from Kalahari don't forget to use DEAL100 voucher

But it can be hit and miss whether it works properly The one power bank that Catch of the Day was selling was for a "modile phone". That's not a typo btw

We ordered two, and returned them within a week. They were totaly cr@p and didn't charge properly.

I got a call from Takealot yesterday afternoon. They're still going to send me the switch as advertised. Some sort of database error
