For Sale : Huawei E5830

A silver and white 3G Mifi widget for sale. Connect wifi only equipment - laptops, Ipads & Kindles to the internet via 3G. Perfect for camping, using them at work or while travelling.

Good condition, no cracks or noticable scratches to the case, but the battery not great. It might just need a good charge, but it might need replacing. These are less than £5 from ebay.

Comes with USB cable for charging and direct wired connection to laptops etc.

You will need to supply a sim card, this can be contract or PAYG.

Looking for £25 as PPG, including postage within the UK.

Location: Grantham, Lincs

Not to the best of my knowledge. I bought it from 3 on contract, so have not tried it with any other sim. It uses standard sims, not micro sims though.

How is this powered? Is it powered by USB or mains? Is getting a standard sim going to be a problem?

Its got an internal replaceable battery and is charged via USB. You can of course just use a 13A mains - usb adapter for continuous use.

£15 is a bit low. These make closer to £50 on the bay! Try me at £20 plus postage at cost.

Sorry, missed your last message. Still looking for £20 plus postage at cost.

If you do find a cheaper one - finished ebay item, that sort of thing, let me know and I will look at beating the price

Cheers, Matt

Blimey, I keep missing the updates to this thread, sorry everyone!

Yes, it is still available.

For £20 I could throw in a Mains - USB adapter.

Hi fella, I thought that it was £ 20 all in, and that you were going to send it first.

That's cool

That's cool Matt. I'm away from tomorrow night for a week. So if you like, send it after the weekend, or at your leisure and I'll pay when I'm back ? Sorry been a mad week and a mad week ahead, but should calm down after that !
