Consistent improvements

Verified Purchase:Yes
Although there were no significant cosmetic changes over my 5th Gen iPad. Gen 6 is noticeably faster and allows me to use an Apple pencil when I choose to. Pages load quicker and touch response is exceptional. The screen is assembled differently. But, I haven't noticed any difference in use. iPad is still my favorite tablet. I use this one with a Logitech keyboard folio cover daily. I remove the cover when I use the iPad for choral rehearsals and performances.

A good adapter to have

Verified Purchase:Yes
A friend of mine wanted to put the videos he took onto DVD. I connected this adapter to his iPad, which had the videos. The other end was plugged into the video input of a DVD recorder. Done! Note, you need to plug in a standard Lightning AC adapter for it to work.

Basic and Effective Video Transfers
on September 29, 2018
Posted by: MoMadison
from Madison, WI
Verified Purchase:Yes
I gave it 5 stars because it does what it is supposed to do, and did so effectively. The audio was pretty well in sync with video. The software is uncomplicated, and the box is bus-powered (no AC adapter needed). I used it with my High Sierra iMac with good results. Accepts S-video and composite inputs (not HDMI). A file copied to a USB drive worked well in a Samsung recent model Blu-ray player. Make sure you've got the "NW07" version if you're installing on Mac. Both PC and Mac versions are in the box.

Ok for purpose, but expensive

Verified Purchase:Yes
The 500MB amount available for data on the basic plan is not enough. I needed to pay $10 to add 500MB more frequently than I thought I should. So, I'm not sure if I'll keep it. I now restrict using it to just emergencies. However, it does work well, and as advertised.

They should, if they're connected to the bank that is "always powered" and if the device load doesn't exceed 360 watts (see box for more specs). The USB charging ports are also connected to the backup battery (5V, 2.4A is available).

Yes, but ... not all the outlets are battery-backed. One bank of (4) outlets provides power filtering. The other bank of (4) provides both battery backup and filtering. So, connect the devices you want to stay on the the fully protected bank.

I am looking for 120 min recordable blank discs but they only seem available in the BC-R format. Can I record music on it like regular CDs or are there restrictions in any way?

You might already have gotten your answer. Here's my thought. If you convert your music files to a standard format, such as MP3 (192kbps), you can store around 4-6 hours of music as compressed files on one "80-minute" CD (depending on the compression you choose).
