Pretty good to boost sound
on July 21, 2022
Posted by: AgentM
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great little sound bar easily boosts TV sound. Had to grab an optical cable to connect to my only available audio output, but that was expected. Gave 4 stars because it could be a little more intuitive requiring remote to turn on and select input where others (admittedly more expensive) can auto-sense an active source and respond accordingly. The centered standby light doesn't really add anything and would actually be nice if I could turn it off, especially for use in a bedroom.

Super handy and quality build
on July 21, 2022
Posted by: AgentM
Verified Purchase:Yes
Super handy and quality build, gave it 5 stars because I honestly couldn't find a reason not to. Assembly was simple, arrived fast and in great condition, plus works like a champ. Did a terrific job on my sidewalks, siding, gutters and even my cars. Replaced an older Karcher pressure washer that was considerably more expensive but didn't work half as nice or built as well as this one. All critical fittings are metal / brass which is part of the reason I chose it.

This tablet is so much more than an e-reader with an impressive gambit of features I am still exploring. From resolution settings, to read aloud this is one very versatile little machine. Screen is responsive, pen sticks to the side with magnets, has a 2 week standby battery life and the size is perfect for my wife to see with easy zoom tools if needed.

Great set and value, Afterlife was a nice surprise
on June 14, 2022
Posted by: AgentM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I feel like GB 1 & 2 need no review... I was hesitant having not seen an reading the reviews for Afterlife, but was pleasantly surprised. Sure, it starts slow and is not end-to-end action. You need to be a fan of the story and invested in seeing where it goes. Was it a bit corny, OF COURSE! they all were. It's a fun franchise and was well worth it in the end IMO.

Comfortable traction
on June 14, 2022
Posted by: AgentM
Verified Purchase:Yes
Let's establish I bought these for a totally different than designed purpose. I needed a solution for slippery hardwood floors that was easily trimmable, removeable and would protect the floor underneath. These were perfect! They clean easily, can be scissor trimmed and provide just enough traction for someone with mobility issues without introducing too much friction. Tried out 1, then bought 3 more. They cover enough area for a large treadmill or weight bench, in my case, covers plenty of floor space and the perfect amount of grip for areas where a little more cushion and traction is needed without causing a tripping hazard (edges are contoured to floor). Would absolutely recommend

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.

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.

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.
 

I understand that a set-up option exists to have he doorbell call multiple numbers simultaneously. How many numbers can be dialed? Does this require a subscription?

Control zoned heating and cooling with the efficient setup of this Google Nest temperature sensor. Compatible with the Nest thermostat (not included), this sensor lets you control the temperature and priority for any room in your home. 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.

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
