HVD 2016

Just realized that my last post was waaaaaayyyyyy back to 14.02.2015! Haaha..Anyway, Happy Valentine's Day 2016 all!!

Happy Valentine's Day

What’s up guys!? Haha.. It’s been a loooonngg time since my last post. It’s 2015 and I can’t believe it. Why? Because time flies so fast and unexpectedly my life has turned 360 degrees. Hmm, well, everything seems to change in a split second. The last time I recall, I was single and extremely occupied with my work. Next thing I know, I’m MARRIED. Yeah, the experience was surreal and I’m the happiest husband in the world right now (I know I know the entire husband felt the same way rite??).

For several months I was doing my duty as a husband while juggling it with my other responsibilities (notably my work of course). At first, I was in a state of confusion of what I should do. I mean, becoming a husband is a good position to test your time management. It’s a bit taxing at first but slowly (yes slowly), I manage to accustomed my time with her time (spending a good, quality time with my wife, although it’s just for 5 mins). 

Secondly, in terms of financial, I have to start saving more and spend less. As a single person before, I think I’m doing well in saving money. But later on, that is after I get married, the flow of the money has turn haywire. We didn’t buy much but it is hard to save money nowadays. Fortunately, my wife introduces to me a book called ‘Rich Dad, Poor Dad’. It teaches me a lot. Learning active Income and expenditure, asset and liabilities has open up my mind of future resources of income. It helps me a lot in my future planning (I bet that I won’t be sitting at home straight away after I return back from my work after this). There’s so much things to do and yet time constrain remains the only obstacle in my plan. I wish I had more time to lay a foundation for my future income (my work requires me to be a clerk, coach while wasting my time and money). Sigh…

Anyway, there’s a lot to talk about but my eyes won’t let it (I’m almost sleepy here). I had to stop here so last but not least, I would like to wish Happy Valentine’s day to my dear Mdm Wife. I know we are 1200km apart but you are always in my heart. We gonna start our own family, having kids…filling our heavenly house with cries and laughter. Growing old and yet still look good (ahem!), sharing bad time and good time, to gain weight and lose weight together, creating memories full of love. Remember that I Love you so much and please take care of yourself alright? :). ..

   

     

Power bank

 

[copy & paste]

 

1) What’s power bank?

Power bank serve as an ‘extra battery’ or external charger for your phone or other electronic devices.

 

2) Where is power bank made from?

Majority of the power banks in the market are actually made in China.

 

3) How do I charge the power bank?

You can charge your power bank via the charger that came with your phone, computer usb port or using other power bank

 

4) How long do I need to charge the power bank?

It’s depending on the REAL CAPACITY of the power bank. The larger REAL CAPACITY, the longer charging time may required. Different charging methods may result different charging time as well. Charging with the original charger will be faster than charging with computer usb port.

 

5) Why sometime I need longer time to charge the same power bank?

Even though using the same charging method, the charging time may be differ due to environment,temperature, power flow and etc

 

6) What is mAh?

mAh mean milli Ampere Hour, the capacity of the power bank is measure with mAh

 

7) A 12000mAh REAL CAPACITY power bank, able to charge a 1500mAh capacity phone for 8 times full?

This is a common mistake make by most of the people. For rough calculation of the total charge time, kindly use this formula
REAL CAPACITY * conversion rate * phone battery health / phone capacity = total charge times
EXAMPLE: 12000 x 0.8 x 0.8 / 1500 = 5.12 charge times (0.5-1 times plus minus)

 

8) What’s conversation rate?

Conversation rate is the remaining percentage of the battery after the battery lost in heat or PCB operation.

 

9) What’s phone battery health?

In simple, it’s mean how‘healthy’ your phone battery is. Phone battery storage capacity will be lower and lower. That’s also the reason why our phone can last longer when it’s newly bought than after 3-6 months we used it. Different mobile phone models also will affect the calculation as some phone drain battery faster than the other.

 

10) What’s PCB?

PCB means Printed Circuit Board,its control all the operation flow inside the power bank. A good quality PCB will allow the power bank to charge more and have better durability

 

11) What’s 18650 power bank and what’s Li-Polymer power bank?

The common type will be 18650 and a better type will be Li-Polymer

 

12) What’s the different between 18650 and Li-Polymer?

- 18650 size and dimension are fix. Li-Polymer size and dimension are flexible.

- 18650 produce more heat. Li-Polymer are much more safer

- 18650 are cheaper. Li-Polymer are more expensive

- 18650 have higher self discharge rate.Li-Polymer have a very low self discharge rate

- 18650 battery durability will drop faster.  Li-Polymer battery capacity are more durable

 

13) What’s the common mAh use in 18650?

Common mAh use in 18650 is around 1300mAh to 2200mAh.

 

14) What’s the common REAL CAPACITY in 18650 power bank in the market?

- Power bank using 1pcs 18650 is 1200mAh – 2600mAh

- Power bank using 2pcs 18650 is 2500mAh – 4400mAh

- Power bank using 3pcs 18650 is 3750mAh – 6600mAh

- Power bank using 4pcs 18650 is 5200mAh – 8800mAh

- Power bank using 5pcs 18650 is 6500mAh –11000mAh

- Power bank using 6pcs 18650 is 7800mAh –13200mAh

- Power bank using 7pcs 18650 (no info)

- Power bank using 8pcs 18650 is 10400mAh –14400mAh

 

15) Is there any power bank use higher than 2200mAh per 18650?

Yes. There are, but it’s not common due to the expensive pricing.

 

16) What’s the different between branded power bank and generic power bank?

Branded power bank mostly sell in REAL CAPACITY. Generic power bank mostly sell in MARKING CAPACITY. That’s the reason why you will never see any branded power bank (standard size) have anything as high as 30000mAh – 50000mAh. That’s also the reason why a good 12000-13000mAh power bank are able to charge more or about the same like the market 30000-50000mAh power bank

 

17)  Is it true branded power bank won’t explode and generic power bank will explode?

Anything to do with battery, will have chance to explode. No matter it’s branded power bank or generic power bank.But chances for both branded and generic power bank to explode are near to 0%.If power bank is easy to explode, everyone will use power bank in war instead of bomb

 

Batman vs Superman

I should have finished some of my work tonight but there’s a big issue that I need to address first; to find footage of Superman vs Batman!! Sadly, Warner Bros has taken down all the videos in YouTube! Huh! The only video that I found is from perezhilton…frustrating? Absolutely!

 

Zack Snyder, Ben Afleck(looks like nobody is complaining his role as Batman after watching the footage), Henry Cavill and Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman!!) 

 

Zack Snyder has prepared a glimpse of his movie and it’s going to rock the whole world in 2016. It shows Batman and Superman staring each other on rooftop. It was epic! 2016 seems waaaayyyy to long and hopefully there be more teasers by the end of this year…sigh 

 

Here’s a description of the footage

 

Set at night, in pouring rain, it begins on a rooftop with Ben Affleck's Batman – in souped-up armour much like he wields in Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, including glowing eyes – pulling a tarpaulin off the Batsignal. It shines into the sky, and then – illuminated against the clouds, flecked with lightning, standing inside the symbol, is Henry Cavill's Superman. And he does not look happy, his eyes glowing red with burgeoning heat vision ray.

The camera tracks in on Batman's face as he grimaces... and cut to black. No dialogue at this point, so there's no idea of what Affleck sounds like as Batman, or indeed a wider sense of the story, but the message is clear: Clark and Bruce are going to face off, and Bruce has enhanced his Batsuit to compensate for the most powerful man alive.

Wonderful Wonder Woman

Damn it!

How do you feel when something that you love/treasure the most is broken? Suck right? Yeah, it happens every now and then throughout our life. I just found out that my lovely CAR is scratched and dented! Arrrgghh!! How did it happen? I’m not sure when but I think it happened last week. How frustrating I was when I was washing my car and suddenly wallaa…sigh..

 

 

felt like a punch to my stomach...

 

I know it’s just a car but I just BOUGHT it! Hmmm…things happen for a reason. I don’t want to blame anyone but next time around, NOBODY is allowed to drive my car. Thank you!!

 p/s: Germany is going to win tomorrow morning. Sorry Algeria… Germany for World Cup!

FYI, my car is scratched and dented while my knee is crooked too...huh

 

 

First class citizen??

No offense but me and Chef Wan speak the same language. We are in the same wavelength. It's just that I didn't have much time  to share my opinion but thankfully Chef Wan made it simple and straightforward...

 

 

I'm leaving!

Finally, I’ve got what I wished for…a TRANSFER. I didn’t apply for it after my appeal was rejected but somehow a month later there come a letter stating I will be transferred..Yeay! I was among the selected few. Thank God!

I was posted and work at the same place for 7 years. I guess I was too comfortable after all these years. I have a lot of friends there. I felt like home. I had a laidback lifestyle. Everything was fine but I felt empty. I can do anything I like but it’s just doesn’t feel right. There’s something missing. I realized I need new challenges, I need to improve myself, I have a lot to offer. Staying in the same place for too long won’t make me any good. I want to be better than yesterday. I want a fresh working environment. I want to serve a “real” leader so I can learn more from the leader, guiding me to reach my limit. I want someone to point my mistake so I can learn to be correct. Not just to say yes to whatever I do and let me do it as I may…without any suggestion to improve my work.

I prefer the feeling of satisfaction of working rather than dissatisfaction. I prefer quality rather than quantity. I prefer action rather than M.I.A (missing in action). I’m not good in what I do and I still learning the method to be good. I’m craving for satisfaction, quality and action. Hopefully, my new workplace will have much more to offer and surely adventurous.    

 

To all my colleagues, time flies so fast. It feels like yesterday that I see you all walk in one by one and then moving out one after another. I’m grateful with our friendship and will cherish it all my life.  Some contended with their work but for some they come for salary. Yes, it is fun to work in a small environment but I hope you can turn that small environment into a ‘respected’ institution, not just a place to collect your salary. Sharing responsibility is good but don’t misuse it. Remember, actions speak louder than words.   

 

Lastly, I apologize to anyone that is hurt by my actions all this while. Please forgive my mistake and let’s turn a new leaf after my transfer. I wish you all the best hopefully I’ll see you soon. Adios…
