Glad I could get this in 3D as this movie is as visually stunning as the first; decent plot.

cheap and easy replacement

We just go into the store up to the customer service desk and exchange our old spent canister for a new full one and we're making soda again, which is way cheaper than buying a new can.

Quickly turn on the faucet, add water to your SodaStream Power, and enjoy sparkling water at the push of a button. The included carbon dioxide canister can create 60 liters of sparkling water straight from this SodaStream Power that can be mixed with a variety of syrups and flavors for tasty fountain-like sodas.

Does the job, but few drawbacks
on August 25, 2017
Posted by: Balo
from St. Cloud
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this for the recent total solar eclipse. It did the job, but there were a few issues: The clamps that hold the cell phone can push buttons on the side causing all sorts of problems, they also can block access to the back of the phone display, and setting up with these issues can cause the tripod to be way off balance; however, the legs are flexible, so you can compensate to some degree. Another drawback is that the legs don't extend, what you see is what you get in height. I didn't mess with the blue tooth remote control, which is probably an unnecessary expense to the product, making the basic function a bit overpriced.

It's the year 2029, and much of the world's mutant population has succumbed to a genocidal, man-made virus. As a down-and-out Logan (Hugh Jackman, in his final appearance as the character) comes to terms with his failing healing factor, he and an ailing Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) must protect Laura (Dafne Keen)-a young genetically bred mutant with powers similar to Logan's-from the evil organization that created her. With Richard E. Grant, Boyd Holbrook, Stephen Merchant.

Best Wolverine, but dark

I particularly like this dvd set with the black and white version of the movie, but this is not your typical pg superhero flick, it's a dark conclusion to the Wolverine series.

Awesome lights, easy place anywhere application
on April 23, 2017
Posted by: Balo
from St. Cloud
Verified Purchase:Yes
We needed lights in our kitchen to light up the sink area since the overhead light wasn't enough and we'd cast shadows over that area at night, so we put these under the window sill all along the sink area and it was the perfect length and coupled with the wireless motion sensor it comes on to light the kitchen when we come home or enter from another room and then with a phone ap we have it time out after 5 mins. And to boot we get all sorts of color combos for any situation/mood. Saved tons compared to installing an overhead fixture!

Easy setup, good sensativity

Verified Purchase:Yes
I originally got this to place in a window to activate one of those LED strip lights in our kitchen, but found out (the hard way) that it will not detect motion through glass (they told me at the store that it should); so we put it above a door pointed at the entry to the kitchen so when we come home through there it lights up the kitchen and it lights up when we walk in from other rooms. No more fumbling for light switches!

Great movie in 3D format

I saw this in the theater in 3D and insisted on getting it in that format when it was released and glad i could do so without having to wait 9 months or whatever it was for the 3D version of The Force Awakens. I haven't even looked at the collectible stuff that came with it; I wish they'd just release a 3D version without ALL the extra garbage :/

I'm slowly replacing all my lights in the house with these. They're great with the Echo and the phone ap. I'll program them for when I'm away from home as well.

Will they work with Amazon echo dot

It should. We use it with Echo. It goes through the Philips hub that we have for some LED bulbs around the house and is setup with a phone ap. We also have it linked to the wireless motion detector so that it comes on when we enter the room and don't have to fumble for light switches or tell Echo to turn it on or fumble for our phone.

Keep your laptop cool with this Targus AWE80US space-saving chill mat that features dual fans for optimal performance. The locking mechanism adjusts, so you can easily find an ideal viewing angle or fold the mat for simple portability.
 

can this replace a dying fan?

so i think the fan in my laptop is on the way out. is this a workable solution to the problem? i don't have the money to buy a new one and don't feel comfortable shipping it off some place to have it fixed, if possible
The fan in a laptop is internal and directly helps remove heat from the cpu and such. The fans on the Chill Mat are just two low power fans that blow on the bottom of the laptop and I don't think would do as much as an internal fan, so I doubt it would solve your problem.
