Make the move to LED work lights today and avoid the heat and hassle of traditional Xenon or Halogen.
This light features an integrated floor stand, and puts out plenty of ultra-white bright light. It uses far less power than their traditional counterparts, which is especially important when running from a generator or inverter power. IP65 rating means it won’t mind a little rain, and it’s tough, so you don’t have to wrap it in cotton wool to transport it in the back of your ute either.

Even individuals who aren't technologically inclined will find the XC0440 Wi-Fi Weather Station to be an accessible yet comprehensive tool. We demonstrate just how simple it is to install and set up. in this easy tutorial!
Have you ever heard the weather on the news or looked at your weather app and thought, 'That can't be right!' Official government weather stations for the Bureau of Meteorology are scattered around the country and commercial operations like WeatherZone have their own instruments too, but they are spread out and the weather for your suburb may be based on an instrument some distance away. The further from a metropolitan centre you are, the worse it is. For example, Gundagai, roughly half-way on the drive between Sydney and Melbourne, gains its weather data from Wagga Wagga, an hour away by highway roads.
In these situations, having your own weather station can do more than just satisfy your curiosity. It can provide you with accurate data so that you can monitor, say, how much rain your vegetable garden has had, or how hot it really is at home so that you can remotely turn on or off your air conditioning, if you have a unit equipped for that. You can also receive more accurate storm warnings for your exact location, and compare data to other people nearby who also have their weather stations connected to Weather Underground or Weather Cloud websites. This allows you to assess the accuracy of your own data. It also allows you to see trends that the official or commercial data may be too sparse to show.

Do you check the weather on your phone? While this is a useful tool (I have a widget right on my home screen, so I don't even have to unlock it) these weather apps simply draw their data from the nearest weather station in their network, which is often several kilometers away. This is why you'll often find discrepancies in temperature, humidity, and rainfall.
This handy unit localises the Temperature and Humidity readings to your balcony or backyard! Highly accurate and specific to your location, you can even set up multiple sensors to check both outside, and various places in your home! (great for making sure your 3d printing environment is kept at ideal print temps)
with the sensors and main console both running on AA batteries, with a range of 30-50 metres, this is an extremely handy, portable solution. And even comes with a moon phase tracker for anyone keeping an eye out for werewolves.
