I say overall their quality is pretty much China quality


Yes.. I have some power points, the boxes don't fit well, and the pin guard got stuck halfway now I can't use it. Another one the plug screw was so tight the automatic screwdriver couldn't budge it.. not sure if rusted or what lol.

those are weather seal, mainly for house windows & doors, Daiso got sell longer stripes for rm5.30, if want better quality suggest go Ace Hardware price is x5 more. i haven't tried the ones i got from Daiso so can't see if there's big difference, but if you want to use on car, suggest quality ones because door keep open close will put lots of stress on the stripes and the heat from sun will cause the tape to come loose easier.

Thanks for the suggestion but I use that to fill in minor gap to prevent from rattling sound in the car (i.e: dashboard, A panel and etc).

Which this, I might give Daiso a try if I need more as I've already bought from Mr DIY this evening for RM 19.90. doh.gif

recharge battery so far only Sanyo Eneloop works for me. other brands like Energizer doesn't hold much charge and will deplete after few weeks even when not used.

Ive bought mr diy non rechargeable AA battery for my daughter lantern last year. within seconds the battery grew so hot, i can't even hold the handle. (battery is placed inside handle of lantern). Good thing i was quick enough to uncap the batteries. it was leaking badly.
lucky i tested the lantern first before passing it my my daughter.

other batteries like CR3032 don't last

but LR44 button batteries seems to be ok though. using it on digital calipers

Mr.DIY brand rectangular battery (black/gold) seems ok. i use on Smart Tag can last much longer than Everyday or Energizer. But more expensive than cheaper brands. For AA/AAA usually go for Tesco or Daiso Brand (x10 for rm5.30). Only button batteries get from DIY because cheapest.

those rechargable battery are very weak, fake capacity and can't last long

if want cheap and promising quality, get GP rechargeable

if dont mind paying more just for your shaver...
go for panasonic eneloop 4th generation, got two version, one is made in japan, the other one made in china,
the one selling in most local retailers like aeon big, tesco, are made in china, the old batch stock selling in US are made in japan, but all latest batch now are made in china ady.
