    Why not install a standard shower heater. Continues warm water and adjustable to your temp wishes. I have such running for many years and it is super. Specially if you are having only a single valve tap (most probably).

    The water tank on Lazada spits out only hot water and you would need to install a double valve tap.

    Bonus...shows heaters come in various prices and wattages

    Not good idea to use a Shower unit for hot water in the kitchen.

     

    A unit used for a shower is controlled by the water inlet tap, leaving the outlet, shower head, open for any hot water expansion.

     

    If used in a kitchen situation the tap at the sink would be controlling the water, not leaving any safety outlet for the hot water expansion, 

     

    Potentially dangerous.  ☹️

  2. Just for information. The battery in a DashCam is to allow the last file to be shut down and saved after the ignition is turned off.

     

    In normal daily use this may not seem relevant, and if there has been no incident it does not matter if the last file is corrupt and not saved.

     

    But if you have an accident where the power is cut to the camera, the last file, the important moments leading up to the accident will not be saved, and the whole point of having the camera is lost.

     

    So be sure when you switch off the ignition the camera is still working, saving the last file before it shuts down.

     

    Just FYI

    Jesus.  First time I've used 1337x.to.  How on earth do you get to download anything?  Every time I click any of the download options it opens up some damn advert for Lazada, Gearbest or whatever.  Anything BUT download ????.  Normally clicking the Magnet link would open up my bit torrent app., this just opens another bloody ad, every time.

    Edge and chrome both have  "AdGuard AdBlocker" available from their Extensions page.

     

    The program is free and really does work in blocking all adds and pop-ups.

     Have been using it for long time and never get any pop-ups from any site, including this one.

     

    RARBG is the only site a bit touchy and sometimes wants to fill a captcha, but small price to for being ad free.

     

    With Torrents, Magnet is the way to go, always use Magnet download.

  4. A couple of points. 

     

    A memory card should never get full, it should be set to constantly overwrite the oldest file so neve get "full"

     

    While GPS may not save you from a speeding fine. In an accident it would help to prove you were NOT speeding.

     

    My dashcam if played on the dashcam player will show all the information, but play it on VLCplayer  it shwas just the movie without any of the information. Useful if you don't want to show your information.

  5. Donald Trump was invited to address a major gathering of the American Indian Nation two weeks ago in upstate New York.

    He spoke for almost an hour about his plans for increasing every Native American’s present standard of living.

    He referred to how he had supported every Native American issue that came to the news media.

    Although Mr Trump was vague about the details of his plans, he seemed most enthusiastic and spoke eloquently about his ideas for helping his “red sisters and brothers.”

    At the conclusion of his speech, the Tribes presented him with a plaque inscribed with his new Indian name, “Walking Eagle.”

    The proud Mr Trump accepted the plaque and then departed in his motorcade to a fundraiser, waving to the crowds.

    A news reporter later asked the group of chiefs how they came to select the new name they had given to the Donald.

    They explained that “Walking Eagle” is the name given to a bird so full of <deleted> it can no longer fly.
