Check compatibility list!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this because of iPhones new feature called standby, where the phone will display a clock while charging horizontally. When I looked up the compatibility list, my phone (iPhone 14 Pro Max) is not on it. I figured well this isn't a new product, they probably haven't updated the listing, so I bought it. Well, turns out that it's not 100% compatible, but it does work. When the phone is vertical the charging spot is too high so it doesn't register that it's on a pad. But horizontally it is fine, and that's what I wanted it for, so I'm happy

My first 4k, and the largest screen I've ever owned. So far I love it, the detail and clarity are top notch. The operating system on the TV (Tizen) is the WORST I've come across. Its confusing and makes no sense. It does include a lot of apps for streaming and they work well. But it seems that they never intended the tv to watch OTA channels. the settings are buried in menus and I still havent figured out how to set it up. I have talked with several other people with similar sets with the same issue, The remote sucks too I have let several people try it, and every person accidentally starts netflix or samung tv or another app. A universal remote is in my future.

Handy device

I use this for strings of outdoor lights. you can turn on plug 1 or 2 or both. It took a little bit to get the app installed on our phones ( we have 2 phones that can control it) but once installed it works flawless. They do include a cover when not using one of the plugs, which feels cheap and does not otherwise connect to the device. (easy to lose when using both plugs)

I bought this because newer PC's dont include them anymore. I have several older games on cd/DVD, and I needed a drive to install them. This works great for installing and running the games, plug and play. I have also used it on my mac too! same plug and play without issues.

Apex Pro Gen 3, the world's fastest keyboard, just got smarter, featuring GG Quickset game presets and OmniPoint 3.0 adjustable HyperMagnetic switches with Rapid Trigger, Protection Mode, Rapid Tap and fully adjustable actuation points, delivering 20x quicker actuation and 11x faster response time.
Overall4 out of 5
4 out of 5It's Serious Business
By HBCUgrad13
[PROS]
Construction: The keyboard feels heavy, but that is definitely a sign of decent materials being used. I'm a fan of the build quality as the frame and base of the device is very solid. Furthermore, the wrist rest is comfortable even without an added cushion.
Rapid Response: Gaming reaction is as instantaneous as it can be. I tweaked actuation settings of some keys while others remained in their default state, and it felt unreal in some instances. It seems like cheating with how quickly my input selections registered on the screen. As a bonus, they are
Streamlined App: Adjusting actuation and key bindings is as straightforward very easy with the Engine app. The interface is organized and most sections self-explanatory. I'm used to clunky experiences and glitches in the implementation. Fortunately, all desired instructions were carried out without issue.
Acceptable Sound and Feel: Keys are "clicky" as expected, but not in the annoying sense. The sound levels are appropriate, and are definitely fine when gaming with a headset. Keystrokes are smooth when pressed, and the fingers are returned back to base.
[CONS]
Wired Only: Its obvious that wired connections are more consistent and have reduced interference. Personally, I would have preferred a keyboard capable of having a wired connection via Bluetooth or dongle for versatility.
Switch Swap Limitation: The red switches are nonremovable and apply to the keypad and other outside keys. I'm not that disappointed because I rarely use them for gaming, but they could be an issue for someone else.
[CONCLUSION]
The Apex Pro Gen 3 is a keyboard worth having. I'm in the lower tier of eSports gamer rankings with my skillset, but I noticed a moderate improvement in the amount of enemy targets I struck with accuracy and even greater speed. As a wired keyboard, it gets the job done and is a very worth eSports candidate.

A wired connection via bluetooth? Once I got to that part, it invalidated your whole review.

Meet your new favorite workhorse, the Pegasus. This multi-function work table and sawhorse with quick clamps and holding pegs can support up to 300 lbs as a table, and up to 1,000 lbs as a sawhorse! The legs lock into place and are made of tough molded ABS with steel supports, and the non-slip feet stay in place on both grass and pavement. Yet the Pegasus itself is only 25 lbs, so you can fold it up and carry it anywhere, or keep it in the back of the truck. The integrated clamping system exerts up to 300 lbs of force to keep your project firmly in place, and has a max clamping width of 18 ~~. And the clamp dog pegs allow you to secure round and oddly shaped materials. This table is 31~ x 25~ and is a standard 32~ high, so it can be linked up with our other Worx tables, and other Pegasuses, to make a longer, fully-functional work table. (Link locks are included.) And the folding tray at the base is designed to hold tools, power strips, or anything you need on the job. The Pegasus is tough and solid enough to be a permanent work table or sawhorse but built to be portable, so you can take it from job to job, or from the basement to the garage without a problem. And it folds down to a depth of only 5~, so it~s easy to store when you~re not going to be using it for a while.

I have media headrests in my car, there is no built in dvd player with them. Could I connect this to the USB port on one of the units and use it as a dvd player or will it only work with a computer?
This drive only reads the discs, it cannot decode them. you would need something to decode the information, such as a computer or other video device. I doubt the media headrests have anything to do with decoding the info (it would be rare if it did) they are most likely just displays. To be 100% sure, you would have to look up the specs for your specific media headrests.

Brighten your porch, terrace or patio with this 800-lumen Philips Hue Inara outdoor lantern. This smart wall luminaire works with a Philips Hue bridge and the companion app, letting you operate it remotely and assign lighting schedules. Set the desired ambience with the dimmable light of this plug-and-play Philips Hue Inara outdoor lantern.
This looks like an off the shelf enclosure with a standard hue bulb thrown inside. Is there something I'm missing here? Does the enclosure someone integrate with the bulb or the hue environment?
Ok, What I have found is that it is a generic enclosure (well not generic, but designed by phillips to be waterproof. No special technology in it) with a hue bulb in it.
BUT, the bulb in it has been rated by phillips for outdoor use. You can change the bulb, and some have put a color hue bulb in it, but phillips has not rated the color bulbs for outside use. and Im guessing that the plastic they use won't handle the heat form a normal light bulb.
So, I think I'm going with a standard fixture, because there are many more options, then put an outside Hue bulb in it.
