Well as Dafansu said, he saw it in Tebrau City, Jusco..

I never used this digi cabinet before but I am using a Digi-Cabi from Digihub Model: DB-036.. 30L for like 8 years already.. I bought it like 2001 and still surviving..

http://www.digihub.com.sg/index.aspx

You may try buying that seems good but do check the warranty..

Digihub offers 5 years warranty - only 1st year onsite repair..

Check it out @ Alan Photo. I purchased a large one 2 weeks ago and never regret on the upgrade. I have one similar 'dinasour' model that last me >20 years and is still working fine.

i'm also looking to purchase one.

like TSQ said, got digital controls, more accurate for RH. what do you guys think of this brand? $100 for 20L. is 20L enough to store a body + 2 lenses ( kit + 50mm prime ) ? looks quite small to me.

aiming for value here, which brand should i get? aipo, akarui, digicab?

BNS like dun have 1 leh

edit : just dug out a thread which was pretty informative, share with u guys!

hey thanks for the tip!

didn't know that.

how much is the digicab digital series then? 30L type. searched on the website but must ask for quotation one.. and seems to be for bulk purchase. 38L AIPO like overkill :/

the Akarui one by CP doesn't have digital control right?

Aha.... hey guys,

You might wanna be a little more generous with the space.... Unless you're certain that you don't need it. What happened to me was that I got a Akarui Digi smallest one initially and duh, 6+ months later went to get a 70L Digi Cabi and gave up the small Akarui. And then 6 months after that an additional DHC-60 ..... All in all, I guess I should have passed on the smallest and got something with 3 trays (4 levels) and bigger etc.....

Learning from my past lessons. Then again, I was on a BBB spree then. haha....
