      for those ppl who cook daily,do u find ur water n gas consumption r above average?We've below average electricity consumption,but extremely high consumption in water n gas,coz i cook daily.


      err..... of coz lah..

      but in exchange for higher pub bill for gas and water for those who cook at home, these lucky people get to enjoy home cooked meals.

      even a simple soup is nutritious...no MSG but real home goodness.

        Ya thanks. Need to put a fl n led side by side to compare their brightness. Can't take the words of the salesman.
        Think it would not be easy. I think some tones of white will appear more glaring and give the perception that it is brighter.

          I just realized that maybe setting up a EQ Academic will be a profitable business, what's your take?


          I'm sorry Harlequin. What's an \"EQ Academic\"? 😓

          Alamaak, my bad, forgot you are not in public relation business....

          EQ, emotional quotient. But donch ask me in details what's that har, wise man like you don need me to do a double job that Wikipedia can do well. 😉

          Academic, relating to education lor :imanangel:

          Keen to be my biz partner? :evil: good opportunity to suss me up more closely, ai mai? :evil:

                    you preparing your kids to burn tons of mid-night oil ar.....? :evil:

                    Actually, I guess, no need too particular lah.. any LED (non-flickering) lamp shd be good enough.. the wattage is not really that important.

                    if talking about table lamp, 10W can do the job, so does 20W.

                    The eyes will adapt to environment. the pupil (not student) will open bigger if its dark, and so the pupil (student) can see better, and vice versa.

                    If it is a dedicated table lamp, any size shd do lah.. Assuming you on the room lights as well. or ask the salesman to recommend..

                      Please don’t talk about food preparation, utensils outside.

                      See no evil…just eat if you have no choice.

                      At home, we use good quality sauces and rice…outside cannot provide bcos prices have gone up and hawkers need to make profit to pay rent.
