I just picked up a Eufy 15C Max for €182 on amazon.es

It's more powerful than the 30C and has many of the same features. 30C is also very cheap on the Spanish site. I've also accounted for a 3 pin plug.

Have you any experience with these?, are they any good?

AndyBoBandy · 27-11-2019 11:31AM

I know its probably been asked a thousand times, but I can log into Spanish Amazon with my uk credentials, and get all the way to order confirmation stage, so it will go through won't it? or do I need a new registration on Spanish Amazon?

Yes it will work, however Prime accounts do not transfer. If you are Prime on the .co.uk site, you will not have prime on the others unless you sign up separately. . Just to note.

Yeah, I noticed that alright as it's quoting delivery prices.

Hi AndyBoBandy,

I bought one last year the 30c version and it's absolutely brilliant.

Want to see the crap it picks up.

I use it upstairs and downstairs and empty after each level and say every 2 days I'd do this it would fill with dust on each level.

I ended up then getting one at Christmas for my dad too as it was great for the dust, well getting rid of.

Well worth it when on offer

Thanks, as a matter of interest what is a 'good price' on one of these? The 30c is £169 today

Anything in or around €200 is good for the 30C. Serious offer on the Spanish site atm for the 15C max & th e 30C. I ordered the 30C for myself 8 months ago & again this week for a family member. Definite game changer in our house anyway

Are they not terribly inefficient as they don't have mapping?

They wander around but very rarely miss places.

Find works quite well.

I picked up the 30C today on Amazon Spain for €173.32 (including shipping), a lot cheaper than UK site.

Has anyone ordered from the UK Hive website before? Brother wants to get the Hive Active Heating deal (£74.25 and free Amazon Echo Dot) and I was going to get it sent to Parcel Wizard for him.

Just wondering what to put for the telephone number as this requires a valid UK number?

Look for the number of pm/PW NI if using them.

Could try and give them the parcel motel NI phone number.

Tried the PW number but it wouldn't accept it as it had previously been used by someone else!

Gave up on that route and just got it sent to a friend's office over in London instead to get brought home.

I have tried and you can do multiple orders

Edit:

I just bought 3 more packs. Damn you Amazon.

As an aside maybe someone can help on this, maybe AndyboBandy ?
I have the ambient colour lights in my starter pack. I know these ones listed are the normal white light, are there many shades of white to select.
Also are they a good price considering BF etc ?

mgray · 27-11-2019 07:36PM

Discounts on Yi cameras on Amazon. £9 off indoor and £23 off outdoor. Discount in basket..

Obviously you can dim too.

Yes, the Ambiance part in the name means the bulbs do all the various warm to cold whites. The linked ones for £30 are white only (they seem to have changed the shape of the white only to that of the colour & ambiance bulbs (the first white only bulbs (called Lux) were also this shape))

There are 3 main Hue bulb types

Hue White (warm white only)
White Ambiance (all whites from warm to cold)
White & Colour Ambiance (colour as well as all whites from warm to cold)

Not sure whether to cancel or not . If they are warm white would there be much noticeable difference if in the same room as ambience bulbs ?

AndyBoBandy · 27-11-2019 10:00PM

The ambiance bulbs will still do the warm white though as well, same as the white only, so if just using as regular white you wouldn’t notice any difference.

It’s just when you went into the colder whites (energise & concentrate scenes) you’d notice a bit more.
