Black Friday deals

Thought it only fair we have somewhere to share Black Friday deals and what’s tempting or tempted us to hit the buy button!

Vesternet got me today with a Zwave 8 button remotec wireless switch for £33

And despite not having done anything yet with the amazon fire 7 I bought with my voucher two weeks ago I’m very tempted for some more now they’re £29.99 as part of the amazon Black Friday deals! (Am on the hunt for a nice Qi charging table top stand to have it freestanding in the lounge)

Getting very tempted by the Google Home Hub but the lack of ability to integrate with Indigo is a killer.

As a device and price point it looks epic. Doesn't have a browser but can only hope that gets sorted at some stage.

Have you seen the Show Mode Charging Dock? I tried using Qi ones but the stick on pads for the Fire tables were never in the right place, and it got too hot to then hold.

This looks like it wont get hot, as not wireless, but still gives benefit of not having to unplug to lift and use. However means having a case on it, and not sure if you can use without the Show mode?

plus its more expensive than the actual tablet!!


I am on the lookout for new cameras, looking at the Reolink 5MP bullets with audio at <£50, but not sure the saving is enough to get me to jump today when I am not 100% sure.

That’s pretty cool I’ll have a proper read of the reviews on the show mode dock thanks

The fire tablets support Qi charging - that is news to me.....

Sorry yes I should have been clearer one of those is exactly what I plan to use.
Have them on my kindle and they work great

Aside from the perfect placement needed anyways!

Not a black friday specific offer but have just bought some Twinkly smart christmas lights. https://festive-lights.com/christmas-x/twinkly

Also was my first use of the 'honey' browser plugin that finds voucher codes and it saved me 15%!

Adafruit is offering a 15% discount site-wide with the code BLACKFRUIT.

https://www.adafruit.com

They ship worldwide, but probably only a good deal for U.S. folks.
