What's your latest tech purchase?

Behringer XR18. Wonderful little thing. It's a digital mixer if you're wondering. Many inputs, and all of them make a seperate track in DAWs!

It's not a purchase, but Lian Li is going to send me black grommets for my new case because people seem stuck on accenting white cases with grey.
 
Snagged a Corsair RM850x to replace an ancient HX650 in my Steambox (Must be 12-14 years old at this point).

Prepping the 'Box for a GPU upgrade and I don't think the HX650 has any meaningful OCP protection etc for modern card spikes.

Bought 2 of these for work, not the cheapest but it works well. Touch sensitive controls, 5 color and 5 brightness settings. My dad attached it with a usb-hub, I use an old Samsung phone charger.

Arzopa Z1FC. Lil' portable monitor which works for my ROG Ally and for my desktop! I love it actually haha since its the same size vertically as my 27" horizontally.

Also makes for an easy way to make my ROG Ally into a laptop when I am traveling.

perfect addition, Galaxy S23 2.256tb edition :laugh: and the double magsafe is practical (also tested with the camera grip)

and, a more compact Ally protection, the grip is superbe and for 17ish chf i can't complain, plus it fit in the Aolion carry case unlike the polycarbonate shell i have, well, too bad it's not transparent but still nice

Sorry, my purchases come with short stories :p

NVMe + SATA (M.2) external cloning dock. I was looking for one a couple of years ago but couldn't find anything of this sort. Glad to see these are widely available now, especially from Fideco. Already got a Fideco 2.5" SSD + HDD cloning hub and its never let me down so Fideco it is!

Also got a cheapie drill. Sick and tired of family/friends occasionally asking for my Makita combo drill + impact driver. I've already lost a bunch of premium drill/driver bits in the process thanks to being a nice YES merchant to everyone. I've had this purchased unit for over a week now. Put it to the test twice (walls, hard wood, etc). I'm surprised, it does the job really well - better than expected. The included bits are of decent quality too. Its now my regular gun for small jobs in and around the home and when things get tough, unholster the Makiii and fire away.

Scored this lot for $10 AU
They were all working plugged in to power when I got them, but the Asus Transformer Tablet seems to have shit itself while I was taking these photos and is totally dead now. That was the one I was most excited about too. :cry:
