The last thing you bought?

I recently bought two things:
1: a new drill diver. My old one is a 25 year old Dewalt - still works but the batteries are failing and replacements are not available.

2: a new HVAC heat pump for my design lab / personal space:

I just love the new HVAC. It was completely DIY (do it yourself) I installed it with no help and no problems. It came pre-charged so didn't have to deal with any refrigerant other than running the lines.
I am so happy with it because it uses very little energy, about the same as a refrigerator and best of all, it is SILENT, both the inside and outside units. Both at max cool or heat is not even a whisper.

One of my greatest purchases!
 
Well it turns out that the motorized Lego Lighthouse I was buying off of Facebook Market was really a fake but I still got it because it was a lot cheaper than the real thing and it also is a near perfect replica of the model. And I think some of the decorative pieces are even nicer in the fake kit as the fire axe is actually painted red on the back half of the blade and there’s this gold circle that truly looks metallic and it even has a nice shine to it as it reflects a tiny bit of light. The only downside is the base plate is really flimsy feeling but it still does the job well and it at least can handle the stress of removing pieces from it if you make a mistake. So far I have gotten most of the base built. I normally stay away from counterfeit stuff but this Lighthouse is $300 on the official Lego store site and sells for even more on eBay NIB. I’ve really wanted this model since it was revealed and for $75, I’d say I got more than what I paid for. Everything is pretty much the same and I just wanted to have a cool display piece in my living room other than the Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle sets that I have.
