Having a big clean-out! Ideally, pick-ups from Kapiti (Paraparaumu), but I can likely arrange shipping if you give me a day or three to sort it out — I’ll do all the postage in one go.

 

I also travel to the CBD, so collection from the Lambton Quay area can be arranged.

 

All items are used but clean, tidy, and in working condition unless noted as new.

 

 

 

๐Ÿ”ง Networking Gear

 

  • 1 x Aruba AP-315 – Has Instant On firmware, so it's simple to set up and creates a rock-solid wireless network. $40
  • 2 x Aruba AP-225 – $25 each
  • 3 x cnPilot E400 Access Points – Includes mounting brackets. $20 each or $50 for all three
  • 1 x Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite – $40
  • 2 x Ubiquiti EdgeRouter X – $40 each

 

Note: No PoE adapters included with the above.

 

 

 

 

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Computing & Server Hardware

 

  • HP T620 Plus Thin Client – Great little device for a router project or similar, combined with below NIC run an amazing little pfSense environment. $50
  • Supermicro AOC-SGP-I4 Server NIC – 4x RJ-45 GbE, Low-Profile PCI-e, Intel i350 Controller. Pairs nicely with the thin client above. Used with pfSense. $150
  • 2 x Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro – Intel i3-6100T 3.20GHz, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD, Wi-Fi, Windows 10. $50 each

 

 

๐ŸŒฆ๏ธ Weather Station

 

  • Tempest Weather Station Kit – Bought via Geekzone last year but ended up above my paygrade (truth be told, I never tried to fix it and lost interest). Here's the original explanation:

 

“I have two Tempest weather station units with all working sensors, but both wouldn’t charge. I dismantled them (easy), replaced the main battery, and they ran for 2 weeks. I then bought a new base station and pole mount adapter. Both units paired to the hub and worked until they went flat. Tempest support suggested the issue might be a tiny (3mm x 3mm) power control IC. I sourced 4 of those and fitted one, but it’s a fiddly job. I haven’t tested the repaired unit as I got sick shortly after — hence the purge.”

 

 

 

Includes: 1 new base station + power supply, 2 weather stations, 2 new batteries, 3 new power control ICs (1 fitted).

 

 

$75

 

 

 

๐Ÿ’ก Smart Home Gear

 

  • 4 x Wyze E26 Bulbs (Brand New) – $30
  • 1 x Wyze Smart Lock – $40
  • 1 x HikVision Embedded Mini WiFi NVR (DS-7104NI-SL/W) – 4-ch video input, up to 5MP resolution, HDMI/VGA output, 25Mbps/40Mbps, 1U chassis. $50
 

 

๐Ÿ“ž Phones & Accessories

 

  • Cisco 7941 IP Phone – Free
  • Cisco SP112 – 2-Port Phone Adapter – $30
 

 

๐Ÿงน Cleaning Tech

 

  • Mi Robot Vacuum-Mop – Used condition, but worked last time we powered it on. $40

If you think any of my pricing is way off, feel free to let me know — open to reasonable offers.
