We got more than we needed of these, when we were concerned about our toddler opening low windows and climbing out. You need a drill and screws to fix them to your window frame. They have a key so you can remove the restriction temporarily, e.g., for cleaning, or in case you need to use them as a fire escape, etc. Dark brown.

Apple iMac Memory (2019 & 2020) (Edinburgh EH8)
Here are two memory modules taken from a new Mac mini 2018 that I upgraded; so these are the modules supplied by Apple. These memory modules are also supplied with iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019) and iMac (Retina 5k, 27-inch, 2020). Both of these iMac's have 4 memory slots accessible from a hatch on the rear, and base models are supplied with 2 of these slots occupied so installing these in the empty slots could double the memory. To find out if you have free memory slots on your iMac got to the Apple menu > About This Mac , click the More Info... button and where you see the memory amount click the circled 'i' . If you have two empty memory slots you can install these modules to add an additional 8GB. Unfortunately you cannot use these to upgrade a Mac mini 2018 as they only have 2 occupied slots with 8GB being the minimum supplied.

DrayTek VDSL/ADSL +LTE Modem/Router (Edinburgh EH8)
DrayTek Vigor 2620Ln. This is a VDSL/ADSL and LTE (3g & 4g) multi-WAN router offering flexibility for internet connectivity and redundancy. There is a 2 SIM slot and the router can use one SIM at a time with the other as a failover. One of the two Ethernet sockets can also be used as a WAN port for use with services like FTTP, or connecting to a VirginMedia SuperHub. All this connectivity can help maintain reliable internet access where the fixed line is prone to outages as the router will automatically switch to the LTE connection and back again when the fixed line service is restored. I used this router with a VDSL connection with a Three SIM as the failover, however you can use this router with LTE only if you have no fixed line connections. This router also features VPN software and can be configured to respond to SMS messages requesting its status. The configuration interface is quite advanced so I would not recommend this to anyone who's networking experience is limited to plugging in an ISP supplied router. The latest firmware is installed: 13/05/2025
