A smarter way to see who's at your door. Get notifications when motion is detected and view live video on your phone. Get the bigger picture of what's at your door, from head to toe or a package on the ground. Even see clearly in low light with night vision. Speak to visitors with two-way audio, or use pre-recorded quick reply messages when you're busy. Plus, receive personalized notifications when your Video Doorbell spots people, vehicles, animals or packages, and store recorded video clips with the included trial of Arlo Secure~. Arlo Video Doorbell uses your existing doorbell wiring for continuous power.

All in one, you get a security camera with night vision, doorbell with video, 2 way audio & alerts, plus an "alarm" feature with mobile monitoring & cloud recording option. Pretty nice. Setup videos are super helpful.

Does what is expected

Nice add on to Nest thermostat. Have it in a more commonly used room that is often a little colder that room where thermostat is placed. Once added you can use this "satellite" sensor as the thermostat setting goal (instead of t.stat reading), so cold room is no long cold, this also helped me see the difference in multiple rooms (just move it around) and adjust my vent dampers accordingly for desired results & energy savings!

Exactly as expected, needed a large screen at a good price. No frills, but didn't need anything fancy. Picture quality is great for my wife and easy to see.

Great solution for hard to access plugs
on February 20, 2020
Posted by: AgentM
Verified Purchase:Yes
Use this on a "map light". Have a large map on the wall with a light over it, plug & switch on light are not easily accessible, but with this, easy peasy. Connected to Alexa and now I just have to tell Alexa to turn on map light and don't need to worry about switch / plug location. Will be buying more, super handy, remote control via voice control product or phone app + timers, schedules all you'd expect & more. App is super easy to use.

Works well, looks nice
on February 20, 2020
Posted by: AgentM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like these, pretty unobtrusive. Mic picks up all voices very well, they look nice but are not obvious. Adding devices is a little challenging. Other Echo products auto "locate" work fine, searching for anything else usually results in "can't find" but they add anyway after a few tries. Suspect this is more an APP issue. Once added & connected though, love the features & ease of use.

Excellent example of what Samsung does well. Solid TV at a great price. Very happy with picture & quality + freebies & Smart Things connectivity Samsung products offer. Like most wireless products, can get a little glitchy now & then. Just grab an Ethernet wire and/or power link and wireless is no longer an issue.

This was a great price, size & value for my dollar. Exactly what I was expecting and more. Samsung includes lots of freebies with even entry level models & has Smart Things connectivity. WiFi range / reliability a little less than expected, but just grab a wire and/or power link for a solid wired solution.

Setup your Garmin n~vi GPS with this Insignia dashboard mount. The 360-degree rotation and 90-degree tilt let you view your device clearly from different angles, while the nonskid design prevents sliding by providing a secure, firm grip. This black Insignia dashboard mount has a low profile that bends to the contours of your dashboard for flexibility.

Dashboard Mount One

Doesn't work as well as I hoped. I had to set a velcro sticker to make it stay in place. And not tall enough.

The Birdfy AI Smart Hummingbird Feeder is fun, educational, easy to install, and makes a great gift for anyone with an interest in birds and the outdoors.With its dual, weatherproof, AI enabled, solar powered, high-definition (1080p) wireless cameras - lets you feed and then simultaneously view, record, and identify hummingbirds with your smart phone, tablet, or computer. Using motion-detection, day or night, it senses when there is a hummingbird visiting and records audio and video, from two separate vantage points, and sends you a real-time activity notification via the free Birdfy app. The AI system recognizes and differentiates between 6,000+ bird species and is included at no extra charge for the life of this product. The feeding station features a large capacity 20oz, BPA-free, anti-UV, nectar reservoir with ant moat. The solar panel is purposely separate from the main unit to allow for optimized placement and improved performance, because where you may want to put the bird feeder is not always the best place to capture the most sun, so added installation flexibility is a plus.

Never heard of this for a doorbell? But no there is no noise cancellation feature. Audio is only used when initiated by owner or button is pressed.

The slim design of this Google Nest temperature sensor is easy to install on a wall or place on a shelf for discreet placement in bedrooms or living spaces.
 

I have 4 separate heating only thermostats in different areas of my home, do I need 4 separate Nest Thermostats to control each via the wires in the walls or can I have one "base" Nest and have 3 other Nest Temp Sensors to control the heat in those rooms?

This is just a sensor & does not offer independent zone control. You can use multiples to sense room temps and even have primary Nest thermostat use a sensor as the reference point for system on/off, heat/cool. But the sensors themselves do not offer any independent control, only the primary Nest thermostat wired into the heat source would offer system control.

Can i use this in a van? And if so will it tell me the temp when I'm not inside, for example if my van is in the parking lot and I'm on a school campus. Does it have a specific radius i guess is what im trying to say.

Works only in conjunction with Nest thermostat, connected to same wifi network.

Can these work as a freezer sensor?

you'll likely not get wifi signal in the freezer & would likely be below normal operating temperature. Operating Temperature

Enjoy the game without straining your neck with this Sanus large TV wall mount, which swivels and tilts at the touch of your hand. This full-motion mount handles televisions up to 84 inches, letting you mount even a wide flat screen. This Sanus large TV wall mount comes with a decorative cover to hide the hardware.
 

The studs in My basement wall are on 26” centers. I know this isn’t normal but I have double checked. Will this mount work? I have no problem drilling extra holes in the mount if needed.

Lots of mounting holes, my studs were very unevenly spaced and it still accommodated a solid mount with no additional support work
