Nice addition to my already huge Arlo setup
on August 17, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
My home is already wrapped in Arlo, every outside corner on the house and garage is covered giving myself and neighbors great coverage.
I was missing an indoor camera for the front porch and this filled that perfectly.
With the Arlo Essential Indoor Camera, I now know when packages are delivered inside the door by UPS and can see if anyone tries to enter and take them. Even though I have outdoor, that was still not enough for me.

Setup was easy and straightforward. Plug in, log into Arlo, setup new camera and boom, it works.
Video quality is nice and easily seen on a phone or computer screen. You can even zoom in and the clarity is still nice, better than most banks or seven 11s.
The footprint is small, just needs an outlet close. I sat mine on a table but comes with a wall mount as well.
If you want a nice indoor camera for security purposes, look at this Arlo, you will be pleased.
Please note, there is a fee to use their service that saves the data on their end. I would like an option to save locally but I have not figured out if there is yet and searching has come up blank on the subject.
I would still recommend this to a friend or family member.

I Exclusively Use These Drives and Love Them
on August 17, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
Western Digital has been raising the bar for disc drives with these new Black Gaming drives over the past few years. I use them on all builds for personal and customer streaming/race machines.
The racing games we setup for need fast and reliable hardware and the drives have to be solid to give the constant data needed all while also running streaming platforms.
The best part about this drive is the 10TB size. This will cover all this build for my next racing rig with includes a full articulating race rig.

For install, it's is no different than any other drive and starts up immediately once booted. I did 2 5TB partitions on this drive so one partition is for saving streas and the rest is for the racing games and profiles.
Do not be afraid of these drives, out of the many 100s I have used I have yet to have a failure, they are great!

Big Production Value and Almost No Editing Needed
on August 4, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
I am in love and buying the bigger version soon to get even more functionality. The Elgato Stream Deck is the best tech you could ever ask for to run your Twitch stream, Blog, Podcast or really anything to do with content creation.
The learning curve with the Stream Deck is fast and once you get into it deep with OBS, VoiceMod and more, the production values just keep going up and up and the Stream Deck is there to bring you to the next level.
I personally love the multi task setups for switching camera views and music changes. This alone cuts down the editing to almost nothing. I can spend more time with my family instead of behind the computer editing. With the easy to setup LCD buttons, I can have my intro, background and outro music selections set to change at the hit of a button.
Also, I can setup in seconds the daily Ad clip and hit it during the stream at any time when I need a quick break. Also, having quick mute buttons, Hue lighting changes and more is so amazing and quick.
Setup is easy as pie, the learning curve is mainly finding out what all is available and downloading complimenting software to use with the Stream Deck. VoiceMod is awesome and free for basic changes but you can upgrade. Screen Zoom is an amazing add on as well when you want to show an area on your screen close up. This takes out a lot of editing, I cannot stress this enough.
Stream Deck can take your coring stream to the next level as production value keeps your supporters engaged and coming back daily to see you have fun.

Should be name ULTRA Light
on August 2, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
This is now my favorite mouse of all time. The Arozzi Favo Light Weight Gaming Mouse almost weighs nothing, I do not know how but you can barely feel it. It took a minute to get used to it but now I wont be able to go back. Oh, and not more sweaty palm!
The software to setup the mouse is dang near flawless, it is easy to navigate and setup your mouse. Being able to setup this mouse for quick clicks and intervals along with sensitivity is the cats meow for sure. The RGB is amazing for the price of this mouse as well.
Tracking is smooth and easy on this mouse with 5 quick change DPI settings you set is amazing for sniping then changing to a SMG and ripping through opponents.
The mouse glides easy as well and the ventilation keeps your palms dry so your grips can be light so no hand cramps after hours of gameplay. Buttons are a positive click feel, you know you hit your button, the feedback is perfect.
For the money, the Arozzi Favo Light Weight Gaming Mouse is a deal, no questions asked, one of the best mouse I have tested to date for under $100.

Simple design that works!
on July 17, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
This stand is very well built with a quality feel you should expect for the money. The snap in design holds it securely within the bas as well.
The large base holds the Nest Hub well and is very stable on almost any surface. The tilt base is nice for that perfect angle and the integrated cord organizer underneath works well and holds the wire nicely.
Very happy with this base, I plan on another for the 2nd unit.
Sound is not impeded at all and does not sound bad being on a stand. No rattle or vibration from the base, still clean sound.
The lense covers are decent, they work fine but I did not want it for the covers, the base was needed for the kitchen counter just in case water or some type of liquid heads for it, makes me feel better being off the counter.
Great Job with the design of this stand.

The Best Back Crack!
on July 15, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
I love these so much! Chirp has made the most simple thing make my back feel like a million dollars after a long day. Being that I work in an office, my back always hurts after work. Now I come home and a minute later, I am stretched out with a good crack or two of the back and on with the rest of my day.
The larger one is the easiest to use and does a great job getting you stretched out and your back cracked. The middle is more extreme for the stretching and if you are larger, not as easy to use but better results. The smallest one is insane, the amount my back cracks and stretches is scary at first but the more I use it the better I feel.
They are light weight and easy to store away. Would have liked a carry bag with them but I will grab something cheap. The rings are very sturdy and well made, you can tell they want to sell a quality product.
Can you get the same results with a ball? I never was able to achieve the results the Chirp products give is much better and honestly way easier to store than a huge ball.
I highly recommend the Chirp rings!

So Far So Good
on June 25, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
The Level Touch Edition Bluetooth Smart Lock is pretty awesome I must say. Now, right off the bat my front door did not have a hole, so mine was more involved but, once the install was done, the magic happened.
If you need to install it, I highly recommend a door kit that comes with all the hole saws and plastic template, you can't screw it up.
Install is super straightforward, just like any other lock, just has the mini computer in the center and the battery in the actual door jam plunger. Now, I have to admit, the battery in the door plunger seems like a bad idea, it is thin metal and they shove a battery in it. I did a few run into the door tests and nothing happened but I bet a big man could snap it, I may be wrong. I wanted go test it with more force but did not want a broken lock day one.
The app works great and getting the key cards hooked up was super easy. The touch feature is the best option, I give that a solid 10. Just touch it while your phone is in proximity and bam, unlocked.
The audio the unit releases when locking and unlocking is nice as a warning and also knowing you can open the door.
I am so far happy with the product and may be adding one to my back door and garage very soon, but, I am going to do some real testing beforehand, I wanna know it can hold up.

It does make you feel good on cloudy days.
on June 2, 2021

from Mentor, Ohio
So far, I like this light. I honestly did not think an artificial light could give the same effects as the sun to make you get an energy boost. The Circadian Optics Lumine Light Therapy Lamp is a great item to add to your desk to get you the energy to work all day. I never noticed how working in a dim office has made me slugish at work. Since adding this light, I have become more productive at work, no joke. Employers should give these lights to their employees, they will pay for themselves.
The different levels of brightness are nice to have so on bright days, you can turn it low to add a little more light and on full gloom days, it feels like I am outside.
I have it mounted to the side of me on a shelf so it is not blinding but pointed down on me. I recommend this as straight on is a little too much and honestly distracting.
If you are in a gloomy place, home, work, hospital, have someone buy it for you or order this light yourself, you will see a difference.

Perfect Keyboard!
on June 2, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
Yep, I love it for day to day use! The key feel is amazing for all use, not just for gaming. I can give it a solid 8 for gaming, reaction is plenty fast and the coloring options are nice. The reason for not a 10 is the grip on the bottom of the board is not the greatest and I found it slipping with minimal force on the wrist pad that is included.
The key feel is a solid 10! The keys cup your fingers nicely and are smooth to the touch for a soft plastic feel.
The last gaming keyboard I used did not have a number pad and that just sucked, I could not use it when working from home. This one has a nice number pad with the same curvature as the letters making programming for work very easy.
I highly recommend this keyboard for the basic gamer but for someone that works on their computer for a living,

Do you experience dropped calls, slow internet speeds, or the inability to send and receive texts while you~re on the road or enjoying some time off the beaten path? With the weBoost Drive Reach RV, you can improve your cell signal, wherever your adventures take you. Designed to enhance signal coverage for RVs, campers and trailers, especially in remote areas. The weBoost Drive Reach RV Cellular Signal Booster uses the latest technology to pick up an existing cell signal, route it the booster, then broadcast that amplified signal into your RV. To install the Drive Reach RV, first select where to mount the outside antenna using the provided ladder bracket. This is the most important step as it impacts the overall performance of the booster. Check that the antenna is at least 12 inches from all other antennas and openings to avoid interference. Use the modular mast extensions to ensure the antenna is above any obstructions. Once the outside antenna is installed, run the coax cable behind the weather stripping of an opening, like a door, window, or pop out slide, into your RV. Next, place the inside antenna on a table or countertop near where you plan to use your devices the most. Then run the coax cables to the booster. Plugin both the outside and inside cables. Now, plug in the power cord to the booster. Finally, plug the power cord into your vehicle~s power supply and turn on the booster. When the green light is on, it~s working. All coax cable needed for installation is provided. Stay connected, wherever you choose to explore, with the weBoost Drive Reach RV Cellular Signal Booster!

Just got back from a trip and the verdict is in!

Just got back from a trip and the verdict is in! The weBoost Drive Reach RV setup works and works flawlessly. We traveled from Ohio to North Carolina for a racing event and the kids never had issues with signal and neither did my wife and I which usually we get dead spots through WVA and VA. This improvement was the icing on the cake for traveling.
Install was simple besides figuring out where I wanted to put the wire to the outside through on the camper without making a new hole. Once that was found, it was a simple process of plug and play, mount the antennae and the boxes, plug in and enjoy.
How good does it work in the middle of nowhere? Absolutely amazing! One of the tracks we go to is in Star NC but not anywhere near the town. We normally get 1 bar of LTE or 3 bars of H. We turned if off before testing it at the track and we went to H for all of us this year. Here is where the magic happened, I plugged it in and boom, 3 or 4 bars of LTE in the camper! Finally, no more data being blocked by the camper walls and the amplifier extending those signals!
Guess what, we also noticed a huge bump outside the camper within 50 ft and this helped us finally stream Live on FB without issues so family and friends could watch us race.
I am super happy with the weBoost setup, that is why I have one in my house now too!
