I have Eubiq but now I see that there are more competing brands around. I guess for electrical equipment you don’t want to get cheap unknown China brands which may cause hazards or worst electrocution.

Zenso is a cheaper brand and SIRIM approved. It should be cheaper than Eubiq. The only thing is the plugs are not as nice and it doesn’t have a lot of fancy assessories eg telecommunication features. However it looks safe enough. If budget is a concerned this may be ok.

I am a happy Eubiq user just dislike the price. You got to wait for Homedec or holiday promotions to get ok deal but they are still expensive. However the product is good and reliable.

and yes i saw the zenso but again unsure should i go for it or not

i am planning to put the eubiq in my kitchen for blender, rice cooker etc. nothing heavy like hood or oven.

should be okay right for small appliances?

You really need to get a qualified electrician to calculate the load in your kitchen before you consider anything. Kitchen is the most heavy power consuming area and most houses tend to have only one power “highway” to the DB box.

So if you add fridge, oven, microwave oven, rice cooker, boiler, electric hob, toaster, garbage disposal, deep fryer, etc etc. Your single electrical highway will be overloaded! In this case you may need to pull another line to your DB box to split the load.

Otherwise, you have to make sure all these appliances are not turned on at the same time. If you don’t calculate the power requirements your Eubiq may end up supporting one or two plugs due to overloading issue

oh i didn't even think about that.

thank you for letting me know

i will certainly ask my electrician before buying to make sure it can be installed

You can always install. The question is you need the electrician to calculate your average load such that you don’t “melt” your electrical highway to the DB box. Like I said, even my 2mil+ home the wet kitchen only has ONE wire to the main. This means all the sockets and points (including lights) are all returning to the DB box on the same connection!

Like I said if u do not plan to on all your devices this may be ok. A word of caution: in some houses the laundry area shares the same line as the kitchen. If you do laundry and with your kitchen full appliance load, be ready to for an expensive rewiring sometimes down the road
