Great game, enjoyed the single-player campaign

A nice follow-up to the first Titanfall and I really liked the single-player campaign in Titanfall 2. And while I bought the X1 version, I'm glad they also released this for PS4 since I have both consoles.

It's yellow!

If you like Moleskine notebooks, then you know what you are getting. I bought a yellow one for taking notes at work and wanted something that would stand out a bit so it would be harder to forget if I left it in a coworkers office. Nice, well-made notebook if you are looking for something more than just a spiral notebook.

Large capacity flash drive at a good price
on February 17, 2017
Posted by: Darkon

Verified Purchase:Yes
This works wells as a large capacity flash drive. The item itself isn't the smallest I've seen, but for the capacity it isn't too bad. I bought this because it is USB3 rather than USB2, but the copying speeds still aren't as fast as I'd like. Still, not too bad of a deal.

A must have for most NES Classic owners

Given the very short cord of the controller that comes with the NES Classic system, you need an extension cable like this unless you are sitting right next to the screen.

Great deal for a trip down memory lane

Verified Purchase:Yes
Once I was finally able to buy one of these, I've been having lots of fun playing many games I played as a kid. It's also a great way to introduce video games to younger kids because these games don't have the realistic hyper violence so many current games have. And you can't beat the price.

A great (but overpriced) controller
on January 6, 2017
Posted by: Darkon
from San Diego
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the features of this controller...solid construction, dual paddle controls on the back, swappable D controls on the front that attach using magnets, headphone plug on the controller w/o needing a separate add-on. But as much as I like the controller, I fail to see how they can justify charging nearly 3x the price of a normal controller. Buy it if you have money to burn or can get it at a big discount.

Nice cable if you need one of these

Posted by: Darkon

Verified Purchase:Yes
Not too much to say about this cable other than it works if this is the type of cable you need. Not too many devices use TB3 yet, but if you have one you'll need one of these cables.
The shorter (.5m) cable is probably too short for a monitor (which is what I got this cable for), but is probably fine for peripheral you take with you on the road.

A great gaming mouse

Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this mouse during the 50% off sale during the holidays and am very happy with it. I would have preferred the wireless features of the g900, but that wasn't in stock so I chose this one instead.
The G502 is a popular mouse for gamers and I can see why. Good fit in my hand and plenty of well-placed buttons that can be customized. I like being able to quickly adjust the dpi setting for fast or precise tracking.

While I bought the card in-store, I'm pretty sure you have to wait for the card even if you buy online.

Safeguard your home or business with this 4-pack of motion-activated NETGEAR Arlo Smart Home VMS3430-100NAS security cameras, which enables you to capture 720p video footage both during the day and at night.
 

Is there an option to plug cameras into an outlet instead of batteries?

Nope. Batteries only. But Arlo recently announced a new AC-powered camera (Arlo Q) that is HD and has audio, which I believe can be used in conjunction with your Arlo wire-free cameras (so all cameras are viewable through the same app.

Control your home lighting automatically with the smart timer on this Philips Hue White starter kit. The user-friendly system lets you turn lights on and off or dim them with an intuitive app for your smartphone or tablet. This Philips Hue White starter kit has space for up to 50 lights and 10 accessories to connect your entire home.
 

Can this system connect to multiple mobile devices?

I previously purchased another system, but it wouldn't work with both mine and my wife's phone, only one or the other. So only one of us could control the lights. We need a system that both of us can access.
I don't see why not. I'm using the iPhone app on multiple devices (iPhone, iPad and my Apple Watch), so I don't see why it wouldn't work with my wife's phone as long as we used the same My Hue account.

Is this compatible with Amazon Echo

Yes, there is some integration with Amazon Echo from what I've been reading, but I haven't set it up myself.

Bridge

Is the bridge that comes with this starter kit the first or second generation?
2nd Generation. You can tell by the picture of the hub...1st Gen hub is round, 2nd gen hub is square.

Can You use the A19 White and color bulbs with this kit?

I want to purchase this kit but switch the bulbs to the color ones is that possible? Thank you
Then you should just buy the A19 Hue color kit, which comes with 3 bulbs plus the newer 2nd Gen Hub. That will be less expensive than buying this kit plus 3 color A19 bulbs (unless you only need 1 or 2 color bulbs). The color bulbs by themselves are pretty expensive.

Soften your environment with this Philips Hue wireless dimming kit. The A19 bulb produces up to 800 lumens of warm white light and provides energy efficiency thanks to its 9.5W power and 25,000-hour lifespan. Use the versatile dimmer switch of this Philips Hue wireless dimming kit as a handheld remote or install it permanently on the wall.
 

Can I use the hue bulbs in an outdoor location such as a porch light?

Maybe if they are in a sealed enclosure that's protected from the elements, but they certainly aren't weatherproof by themselves.

Lightstrip without hub

Can you use the switch to control the Philips light strip without using or buying the hub?
I'm pretty sure you can't because you need the Hub to do anything with the Hue app, including configuring which lights this dimming switch will control. That said, you can probably pick up the first gen Hub for cheap...I already have 3 of them I'm not using from when I bought different lighting kits that came with a hub because the kits were less expensive than buying the lights individually. I also upgraded to the 2nd gen hub for HomeKit support (a waste of money so far because I haven't gotten around to setting up the HomeKit settings).

Philips Friends of hue LivingColors Bloom 259531 Starter Kit: Add splashes of colorful mood and accent lighting to any room with an open power outlet. Control the lights' colors, schedules, dimmers and more from your phone using the included bridge.
 

do these lamps need a wired ethernet connection to work?

The lights themselves just need power, but you do need a wired network connection in your house for the Hue hub to plug into, which is required to control the lights. I believe the lights communicate to the Hue hub via the Zigbee protocol. This starter kit comes with the older version of the Hue hub, which is fine for most people unless you want to use it with Apple's HomeKit functionality.

Do the cameras run all the time or can you set up time parameters and how easy is it to change them

During the week I would like to have the camera show during the day as per sometime and then at night all the time can I make this happen without too much difficulty
You can setup schedules for the motion detection so that it will be enabled only during certain hours for selected cameras. When motion is detected by the camera, it records several seconds of video, uploads it to their server and then sends you notifications so you know there's something to look at.

I haven't played with the scheduling features too much yet, so I'm not sure if you can setup multiple time windows for turning on motion detection during the same day. While you could setup multiple schedules, only one schedule is enabled at a time and you must manually choose which schedule you want to enable.
