Yeah - will likely leave the WiFi off for the most part

Turn it on when parking in the city or dodgy areas etc - should be fine in my driveway where it lives for 90%of it's life

Will give it a couple of days and see how much data it uses - if it's negligible I'll probably leave it on.

Cheap and nasty. But if it mows my yard 6 times it is cheaper than the mower service.

Just gotta figure out how to stop it back firing.

I wanted one of them since I was a kid

Even promised the old man I'd do the lawn every weekend if he got one (he never did).

Am cooking a pork and beef spit this arvo on the rotisserie coal keg thing.

Needed some extra prongs for the rotisserie bar (to hold the meat)

Walked into BBQ Galore - 20% off everything

Walked out with a new BBQ - bigger, proper brand version of my no-name ebay special egg and it comes with all the goodies. Gets delivered next week $500 off the price :)

Just clicked the link and threw up a little in my mouth at the price. Yeesh.

The last time I went into a Barbecues Galore, I asked the staff there is they had any BBQs that you didn't need to sell a kidney for.

Suffice to say, they didn't look amused.

Just went to Bunnings and got one; works perfectly fine at at least a quarter the cost.

Yeah - I get that

The "eggs" though are a totally different level to gas or even Webers

I've been using a no-name ebay one for a fair few year and absolutely loving it

Have had to run a smaller chunk of meat for the low and slow cooks than I'd like to though

(you haven't lived til you've eaten properly done brisket - 12-16 hours on the smoker and your toes curl when you get some)

This one is the size I need, comes with a crap load of extra stuff that I'll actually use and isn't a cheap knockoff

I know it's not cheap, but hey - it's like when people ask why you spend $xxxxx on a car when you can get a Hyundai for a fraction

At least this is something I've had experience with and it's an honest upgrade and "end level" purchase

Yeah - I know the price and the value

Shake my head at people spending even half the price on a gas cooker

This thing will be passed down to my favorite offspring
