Bluair, more like FreshAIR
on January 11, 2021
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
I am in love with this purifier, to the point I bought 2 more. This Blueair Classic works amazingly and has made the kitchen smell amazing, no more food smells from cooking or leftovers in the fridge from the kids. Clean, country fresh air, all the time!
The box arrived and the unit was packaged perfectly, zero damage and everything was tucked in nice. Quality packing means a company cares about their products.
The unit is quiet, even on level 3 it is barely noticeable. The speed in which it removes smells and allergens from the air is crazy. I am allergic to dust and by setting this near the heating duct, it cleans the air coming out and I sneaze much less during the winter now.
The app works great as well, I love how it gives the air quality inside and out. You can set time schedules for when it runs or let it go on auto. The app gives you a detailed graph of the air quality, so much I know when the back door is opened, when something is cooking and when the heater ran.
The filter is easy to take care of as well, nothing difficult to remove or install.
I through a power measuring outlet on it and at current electricity costs, it will use about $1.85 a month to run about 6 hours a day on average.
If you are looking for an affordable air purifier, especially for a smoker, this one is it!

This on is perfect for the Kids!
on December 7, 2020
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
I have to say right off the bat, the quality is not 4K or something you would want to watch a movie with a bunch of friends outside but on a 105" screen inside with the kids playing Fortnite, you just became the best parent ever.
I received the projector and tried it on a sheet at first and it was blah. I decided to buy a 105" screen from another retailer as it was the biggest I could fit on the wall and Best Buy did not offer one. The true projector screen is what it needed, the difference was night and day. The quality jumped up to a 1080 ish picture with the lights off. Playing Fortnite was the best thing my kids have ever seen on a big screen.
Movie watching is awesome as well for the kids. Cartoons like Trolls or Onward was actually pretty awesome. The graphics were pretty colorful but a tad fuzzy on the edges. Detail was a 7 out of 10 for being a projector.
The built in speaker is actually decent, but do not look for bass. I hooked up an old Insignia soundbar I had in storage and book, now this thing has made the kids play room the center of attention. The kids around the area now want to just come in with my kids and watch movies and play games, they are the "House to be at" and I actually heard 2 kids say it.
Connections are easy and fast, they work no problem. The unit is a little noisy, which is a downfall but overlooked when the kids are enjoying it.
Another thing would be night time outdoor movies with the family. I see this being something fun once it is warmer out again.
I highly recommend this projector for a fun kids room at this price point. If you are looking for movie theater quality, it is not for you but at this price, it is a 5 star product.

Has ton of potential ruined by a horrible app
on December 1, 2020
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
I wanted to really love this device as my wife does a weekly podcast for her company and I wanted to do live events with my side business. I had to borrow a S20+ Ultra from a buddy to try this out, my Android phone would not work.
From the experience with an app that worked, it was a neat device and has ton of potential. The connections were easy and the use of it was on point. We were able to switch the sounds around, use our good microphone and use my opener I paid to have made for my business.
The performance was great using the S20+, everything worked and was smooth, the video and audio came out flawless and the effects were an awesome touch. This is perfect for a traveling podcast or going live at a public event doing interviews.
I was honestly not able to do a full review because my buddy needed his phone back and I am not about to spend $1100 on a phone just to use this device.

I Threw my Elite Controller in the Kids Bin
on November 24, 2020
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
I cannot say enough about this Thrustmaster ESWAP X Pro Controller, it is amazing how much it has improved my gaming. I will mention right off the bat, the controller is a little larger in your hands than an Xbox controller. Also, please note, this is a WIRED controller.
Once I connected the controller, I setup the mapping of the rear buttons and it is so nice to have the extra buttons for games like MW and War Zone. The wire is long but I ended up buying a real nice quality 10 foot USB extension and it made all the difference for me and I like to sit back once in a while on the Xbox in front of my 75" TV,
Now, when I went to play War Zone on the PC, I did not need the cable extension. The speed of the controller is great and being able to swap the joy sticks is the best part. I am a PS guy that switch to Xbox, now I can have a PS style layout on Xbox, I love it.
You can buy accessories for the controller from Thrustmaster but I have not personally.
Pros:
Amazing design
Swapable buttons
Maping of buttons
Large Trigger buttons
Speed of controller being wired
Feel like it was made with Quality
Headphone Jack
Volume and Mute Buttons

Works well but the App is Poor
on November 24, 2020
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
The Lux Smart Thermostat works well but lacks style and basic setup for everyday users. It has potential but I could not keep it compared to my older HW setup. I ended up moving the Lux into my enclosed trailer to control the heat and air.
I loved the simple setup once mounted and mounting it was stupid easy, hats off to LUX for making the install so painless. The on screen setup is very easy in my opinion but for someone that is not a techie, they may struggle and the Android app is horrible. I have yet to get the app to work at all, it will not connect 99% of the time and the one time it did, the software update failed after 20 seconds.
The look is basic and the menus are decent and easy for me but my wife had problems using it. The clicky buttons feel blah as well, they are not smooth, on screen would be worth a $50 difference if the app worked too, Also, a better screen with options for background pictures would be great, my other setup looks like my wall and blends in.
The feel of the unit as a whole is cheap, the connections were my favorite part as well as the mounting but over all, it just doesnt do it for me.
For a basic thermostat, it works but I cannot recommend it as a first choice.

BOOM! These are the MOST Comfortable set yet!
on November 10, 2020
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
I love these headphones, simple as that! The fitment is exactly what I have been looking for in a set of ear buds for years. I have tried Bose, Tranya, JLabs, JBL, Beats and Sony. Nothing is as comfortable as these Ausounds!
The neck band is barely noticeable it is so light and it held a charge for hours, I think I ended up over two 10 hour work shifts on a charge.
Sound quality is pretty good for the price. With the noise canceling, you get clear highs, not tinny, great smooth mids and some hefty but not ear blowing bass.
They charge full in about 2 hours from what I can tell. They also had zero issues connecting to 5 devices Austin's!
Packaging was perfect with these headphones, nothing flipping around and everything was secure for shipment. The little carry bag is great as well
I am very happy with these headphones and highly recommend them.

De'Longhi Stilosa 15 Bar Pump Espresso Machine

For a Beginner, It Works!
on October 29, 2020
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
I will be honest right off the bat, we hated this unit at first compared to our De'Longhi Dinamica Espresso Machine, it did not give the same results. Once we found that we needed to grind the beans much more than normal coffee ground style. I used my Ninja Bullet and left the beans in there for about 5 minutes to create a super fine powder. That did the trick! Now, we can make fast and easy espresso in the Toy Hauler before we go out and ride.
The ease of use is a 4 out of 10. It does not come with a good tamper, we bought a nice one out of stainless with for $39 on another site and it also made a huge difference.
Taste is great like it should be, at first it was watery and flavorless until we made the grounds fine.
Packaging was great as all De'Longhi products usually are, the machine made it through the shipping process without issue.
The modern and compact look with be welcome in any home, guaranteed.
Make sure to look here to save money from them coffee shop trips, it is worth the $99 any day of the week.

Great Coffee Maker for the Cost
on October 29, 2020
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
What can I say other than it is a great and affordable coffee maker. It works very well and is decently quick compared to most. A full pot of coffee took about 7 minutes which is enough time to get your deodorant on and my lunch ready.
This unit is very quiet compared to my last Mr. Coffee unit. I have used Mr. Coffee for over 20 years since my first apartment.
Packaging was nice and everything protected very well, it held up to shipping in UPS and they throw the boxes like it is the MLB finals.
The look is modern and looks great in my new toy hauler when camping.
For being a simple product, it does very well and I highly recommend this coffee maker for your home or office.

Has lots of potential just poor execution
on October 1, 2020
Posted by: ElectronicJunkie
from Mentor, Ohio
After hooking the Phyn Smart Water Assistant up and knowing what to expect with the learning process, I have given it 3 weeks to "learn" and it still shows nothing that it promotes.
The one thing I can say is the packing was great, everything organized perfectly. The instructions are average and the install was overly time consuming and I am very handy with tools. The Teflon tape that was included was crap, it did not seal great so I used some I already had. Mounting the box was simple but power was a small issue as I did not have an outlet close under my sink.
The smart part of this unit is still "learning" i guess, I can see water usage for my sink basically but whole home is nowhere close to what my water meter shows.
Until they improve the way the software works, this is basically useless for myself and my smart home.

I cannot say enough about this headset. The have worked flawlessly since the first time setting up on my Day one Xbox One.
The quality is bar none the best for your hard earned dollars. The fitment is fantastic for hours of play. My wife, myself, and all 4 of my daughters are in love with the sound, fitment and ease of use.

The sound is amazing and truly helps your game play, especially FPS games. My Warzone game play has become more enjoyable and my finishes have improved well over 50%. To hear everything around you with massive bass from explosions and gun fire is something else. Turtle Beach, you guys hit this on out of the state!
The microphone setup it great, with the mute and off features being the best part yet. Clear dialog while playing with friends and they have even said I sound perfectly clear on their end.
If you want a set of amazing headphone and finally do.it wireless, buy these, I promise they will not disappoint!
