The controller performs just as expected, and has quite a good battery life. My only gripe is the price of video game controllers across ALL gaming platforms.

I want to recycle- I really do, but when I have to pay hard-earned money to dispose of an old monitor screen I just can't AFFORD to do it! If the EPA were so concerned about e-waste, then they would have already done something.

Back when Spectrum Internet was affordable in my area, this modem could handle the 72 Mbps that were coming its way and still hold a 35Mbps on Wifi connection. But, alas, I was forced to change my ISP and now I have to use a fiber optic modem.

Honestly, its not a difficult or "hardcore" game by any means. But if you like Pokemon, or you want more "Pokemon GO" without spending a small fortune or walking forever than you are welcome to give the main series a shot.

Functional, but not secure.

I used this installation kit for a 2002 Grand Marquis and I have mixed feelings about it. It fits just fine, but there is no way to secure your possessions with this harness! The nubs that hold it in place are pathetic, you can remove them with a light tug since the harness wasn't designed to receive the original FORD plate locks. And to make matters worse the kit does NOT include a complimentary set of bolts to secure the back of the stereo to the adjustable harness so if it ever comes loose the stereo may jangle. But for $20 it could be worse. If you decide to buy- HAVE A CAR ALARM INSTALLED FIRST, but that goes for anyone upgrading their stereo.

can this play in pc ?

No, as with all Pokemon games, they are exclusively kept to the handheld consoles and maybe their household counterparts (although there has not been one in nearly a decade). This game and its counterpart is only for the Nintendo 3DS family of consoles. Any online ports of Pokemon games tend to be for older games which have been decrypted by hackers and modified to accept keyboard controls, but as such they lack virtually all trading and network capabilities i.e. trading and battling.

Experience better accessibility with this RCA four-device streaming remote. Extra-large buttons make selecting channels and setting functions a breeze. This remote allows you to control up to four devices at once.
 

Will this work with a dish network joey?

Probably not, service provider boxes tend to have their own brand that keeps you buying from them.

Easily clean electronics and screens with this Insignia~ NS-PCYA855 kit, which includes a duster that fires moisture-free bursts to remove dust from devices and 80 alcohol-free wipes that easily remove soils from display monitors and laptops.
 

are wipes ok for kindles and nooks

Yes, electronic wipes are safe for most devices. As a rule of thumb: if your device is meant to be touched, a wipe is just a moist touch. The only devices I would worry about is some exotic plasma TVs and some delicate screens.

SANUS TV SAFETY STRAP
 

Does this work on a TV with a swivel base?

With this attached, can I still swivel the TV 20 degrees in each direction?
It would most likely limit the swivel ability, and putting the strap on loosely would defeat the purpose of attaching it. I would not recommend it.

Mounting Hardware

Do you have any specifications on the mounting hardware that comes with this product. Specifically, from the product picture it looks like there is a bracket that attaches to the wall which connects to the strap. Also, I'm guessing that the screws/bolts come with the product? If yes, are those M8 screws?

I have a Samsung Smart 55" LED and the manual suggested M8 screws for the anti-tip straps.

Thanks for your help.
It has so many bolts in the kit that I have a whole set of assorted bolts doing nothing in my drawer.

Is a drill needed to secure to TV stand?

It is not 100% necessary, but at the risk of splitting the wood accidentally I would highly recommend a drill.

Can this just be mounted to the wall only? If not, do you know of another model?

I have a glass topped TV stand so can't drill & anchor the strap to the furniture as shown in the diagrams.
It seems like you can simply attach this model to the wall alone. Just tighten the strap short.

Are you able to still swivel the tv after you attach the strap

No, the TV strap is like a fitted rope. If you want a swivel TV I would recommend a TV wall mount. You will need a stud finder, however, and you will need to make a pair of holes in your wall.
