The Apple and insignia cables aren’t robust enough for heavy use IMO, But this braided cable seems to be more durable.

It does what it should do. Only issue is the pain of flushing the required amount of water through it initially.

Charge your iPhone or iPad with this Native Union BELT cable. It connects a Lightning device to a USB port for syncing, and it wraps into a tangle-free coil when not in use. Use the included leather strap to bind this 4-foot Native Union BELT cable for easy storage and transportation.

Replacement Cable

Verified Purchase:Yes
I travel quite a bit for work, and have two iPhones and an iPad Pro, so it’s important to have several good charging cables with me. I had one of these until a recent business trip where I must have left it somewhere. It works great and I love the leather strap that keeps it organized.

The description states that the humidifier is sufficient for up to 350 square feet, but I’m not certain about that, although we do have very tall ceilings in our house. That being said, it works fine for us.

Recharge your Apple Watch with this soft-touch Insignia charging stand. Its sleek construction keeps your desk clutter free, and the cord runs easily through the back of the unit for simple cable management. This Insignia charging stand has a ledge to keep your smart watch secure as it gains battery life.

Since I have a protective case on my watch, it doesn’t sit correctly on the stand. I forgot to return it, so I’m stuck with it.

Our Tivo Roamio is connected via WiFi.We're thinking of getting a Tivo mini to watch dvr'd shows in another room.Will I need to now have both machines directly connected to the Ethernet,or can I plug the mini in and still access shows from the Roamio?

It's been a while since I set my system up, but I believe that they both need to be installed via Ethernet.

Can I record from the mini or will it only access recordings already on the DVR?

No, you cannot record from the Mini. It only gives you access to the recordings on a TiVo DVR.

Best of all, TiVo BOLT unifies all your TV channels and streaming content into one simplified and searchable system, so you can start binge-watching any available show in seconds.
 

Does this unit work with OTA ?

Yes! It works great for me (I'm in the Dallas metroplex). We got rid of satellite and are enjoying it. It took a little getting used to, but I love having DVR capabilities for our favorite broadcast shows. We already had an Amazon Fire TV and AppleTV so I really didn't need another device for Netflix and Amazon Prime, but it's there if you want/need it.

Does this item work like a vhs? I want to be able to program at a certain hour a program and record it! I have cable but don't want to pay for the service every month. I record programs once in a while! Does it have storage?

First, you don't set it like a VHS exactly. You search for the show or program you want to record, then set the recording options (one-time, record the series, etc.)

Second, TiVo is not free - you have to rent a cable card from your cable company and you pay a monthly, annual, or one-time fee to TiVo. The only free TiVo option is their Roamio OTA (antenna).

Third, yes it has storage. It holds one terabyte of recordings. Depending on your video quality (SD or HD), you should have hundreds of hours of recordings.

Not anymore.

Does it retain recordings if you change companies, i.e. if I changed from DirecTv to Time Warner, will the shows I recorded while with DirecTv still be saved and viewable after I disconnect the DirecTv box and connect/activate the Time Warner box?

I am not aware that the TiVo Bolt is compatible with DirectTV.

Can I use it for 3 TV's?

No, it is connected to one tv. However, you can purchase two TiVo Mini's for your additional tv's and they connect to the TiVo Bolt. Just note that all of the TiVo devices must be connected via Ethernet as the Mini's don't have wireless capabilities. The other option is if you have an MoCA network.
