Hello everyone! I hope you’re all staying safe, getting vaccinated and ready to rumble for another summer! The executive summary of this blog post is – we have DPD powder but no jars, and I’m fixing that asap. Read on if you want to hear all about global chemical and packaging supply lines. There is […]
It’s August and that means getting ready for summer here at the Labs! We are in a lockdown (who isn’t right now though) and so I’m making reagents and tinkering with bottles. I’m super excited for some changes we’re making this year, and also 100% anxious about making sure our kits are the best in […]
Brisbane is entering a 3 day covid lockdown, and then it’ll be Easter weekend. This should not impact shipping by more than a day or two. Hope everyone has a great Easter and hopefully gets to have a break. Stay safe and if it’s too cold to swim in your State, you can still look […]
Hi Everyone! Welcome to 2021. It’s already been an eventful year here in Brisbane, I assume it’s getting everything out of the way quick so the rest of the year can be very uneventful! Quick update on the plan for the Labs 2021 but as with last years planning going so off kilter for everyone, […]
The short story is the Labs will remain open. Keep ordering online, they’ll all be filled and posted as per usual schedule. The news this morning (Jan 8th) is that Brisbane and surrounds is to be put in lockdown from tonight for a 3 day period – the general mood here in Brissy is that […]
It’s almost Christmas time, which means a lot of the country shuts down and so here’s my rough schedule. The last posting day will be December 23rd. Get your orders in before I start work on Wednesday morning! Shipping will happen again briefly on December 29th & 30th. Probably not 31st as I don’t want […]
Hi everyone! I believe we’re good for the Summer stock-wise. It’s hard to be 100% confident because that’s just the nature of the small business retail sector and frankly this years been weird. You may have noticed. Summer officially starts tomorrow, so get your pool testing needs met in the Labs and I hope this […]
We sold so many kits this week that we’re out of Chlorine reagent already! I thought we’d make it to next week, when our large shipment is due. We have 100’s of kits worth of Chlorine Titrating Reagent coming from the US – right now they’re on a plane and have “left the US” which […]
Everything is in stock! Who knows for how long with the way 2020 is. Chlorine titrating reagent is a pain to get at the moment, apparently the USA is having a bunch of issues caused by covid, presidents, and I think space mutants from the Planet X. Actually probably shouldn’t joke about that, I mean […]
Tracking shows that the Chlorine Titrating Reagent has cleared Sydney customs offices and is on the way to Brisbane. I’ll update the website as soon as the stock reaches me – should only be a day or two hopefully! Have a great week and enjoy your pools, it’s getting warm out there! –Brett
