Guide to high performance laundry detergent


What to look for in a laundry detergent

  • Above average overall dirt removal performance, giving you a clean and fresh result
  • Low salt levels, which is important for recycling water from treatment plants
  • OK for occasional garden use of the wash water
Based on weightings of the above criteria we recommend the following detergents.
Top 2 recommended powder and liquid detergents for top loaders and front loaders
Powder DetergentsLiquid Detergents
Top LoadersBiozet
or
Omo Small & Mighty 2 x concentrate		Seventh Generation
or
OMO Small & Mighty 3 x active power
Front LoadersBiozet
or
Omo Small & Mighty 2 x concentrate (at ½ dose)		Seventh Generation
or
OMO Small & Mighty 3 x active power




If you usually use a powder detergent, pick up a liquid concentrate next time you are at the supermarket and see if you are happy with the results. Liquid concentrates contain less salt than powders, making them less harmful for our waterways and better for wastewater recycling.

Based on all these information, liquid detergents are better than powder detergents.  Seventh Generation is the best choice with cost considered.
To find out how your favourite brand performed for washing performance, stain removal, greywater suitability and wastewater recycling and cost per wash, refer to the results of CHOICE’s study.

The Bose Soundbar 700 Won't Connect to App

Bose has one of the best speaker sound. I learnt about Bose more than 25 years ago and still a fan.  I bought Soundbar 700 in 2018.  It took me a while to set it up but it has been giving me troubles once a while.  Recently, I was not able to connect Soundbar 700 with my phone.  Done the factory reset on the soundbar, it didn't work. I spent hours reseting everything multiple times and finally I found this article,  https://www.bose.com.au/en_au/support/articles/HC1380/productCodes/bose_soundbar_700/article.html .  Tweaking them all and finally got it to work again. I think the most important setting is to TURN WPS OFF on the router!  Hope it helps.

Brivis Heater - Error Code #69

My Brivis HX23 Heater broke down this week.  H01 Code #69.  This code was not even listed in the User Manual!  Searching around the web and here is what I found: Secret Reset: This is not in the User Manual.  On the networker controller press FUNCTION > 1 > 4 keys and the screen will go blank and come back on after 30 seconds, this has rebooted the main PCB and reset the fault code. Use this with caution as too much gas build up could cause an explosion. Use it only after the unit has enough time to air out the gas build up. What is Code #69 or any other unpublished codes?  The best way to find out is to open up the heater unit.   There is a little LCD on the PCB showing what error exactly is. (Note: Opening up the unit may void your warranty.)
