Good Quality Batteries

Verified Purchase:Yes
I just ran out of AAA's and this brand is definitely better quality than the cheap generics at the local dollar store that last about a week. This item was added to order of other batteries I needed: Nothing special or noteworthy of comment here except preference of better quality brand.

Do not recall what was paid for this pair, but simply added to order as I needed extras in inventory. Glad I did as I have already used one. Value not to be bragged on as they were not on sale.

Serendipitous Replacement
on September 1, 2018
Posted by: Phil
from Louisiana
Verified Purchase:Yes
After my Acer 10.1" was junked by Best Buy after only 20 months of ownership, this larger device was a welcomed replacement. The more spacious keyboard is easier to use. The Acer that I gave up was sent to Geek Squad about 4, if not 5 times for repair: I had lost count. I doubt that I will have the same problems with this Lenova. Geek Squad made my life simpler with this exchange.

Look, it is a bit larger than my new Lenova 11.5", but this is good as it will also hold the mouse, mouse pad, and any other documents or paperwork that might need to accompany it. The other that I purchased a couple of years ago for my 15" HP Pavilion had a longer shoulder strap that would cause the briefcase to bounce off my hips when cycling with it, and the shoulder straps finally came loose at the briefcase ON BOTH ENDS that needed to be mended. The strap on this one is shorter raising the case to just below my armpit: A better fit for cycling and even strolling. Kudos on the better design!

Waiting to Place into Service-Seasoning Successful
on August 4, 2018
Posted by: Phil
from Louisiana
Verified Purchase:Yes
Well...I did season the unit after assembly which was set on high for four hours; but will thaw the whole brisket to cook in October during an NFL Sunday when it cools off here in humid Louisiana. During the initial process it did get pretty hot according to the thermometer, so I know it will work well-except for the wood chip tray which will be straightforward. In meantime it behooves me to read up on manufacturer's guide and recipe books so as to be more prepared for the inaugural occasion. It is plenty sturdy and heavy, so I know it will be durable. Good price and I caught a whole brisket on sale last spring to boot. Finally, I loaded up on mesquite and hickory chips for the fall/winter that were closed out at a small general store for half price. So we can agree that I got set up for the entire process rather economically. It took a bit of research, planning and preparing since last spring when I was first shopping for wood smokers, but patience since then led to this purchase when I decided on this electric smoker when it was recently offered at a competitive price on the Deal of the Day; otherwise I would have picked up the assembled wood smoker at Lowe's for $99. I am now ready.

Great Spare

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased a refrigerator/freezer combo of similar size last year, but this entire frig is a great addition to the first unit: expands space and versatility. It runs cold as I have it set on "4" and not more! Of course, it was the great price offered by "Deal of the Day" that prompted the purchase; otherwise I doubt I would have bought it. I WOULD recommend it to a friend, but the cost criteria would be up to him to decide.

Waiting to Place it in Service
on July 21, 2018
Posted by: Phil
from Louisiana
Verified Purchase:Yes
First of all, let's be clear that the quality of my 4K reception falls midway between perfect and the 1080P. I ordered when on sale AND in time to have on hand when DirecTV upgraded my equipment to have all receivers replaced with 4K instead of one that was designated as such the past 2 yrs. Albeit that 4K has come a long way, it is still being developed and improved as not all channels or programs are delivered in 4K which is why I was content to give up that original one and be content w/1080P, but I had no choice as 4K is standard upgrade installation now. DirecTv provided its own HDMI cable and have yet to connect with this new one from BB to see if there is any improvement. I might get back with you only if I see a distinct difference after I give it a try. Main reason I purchased it: Best Buy does not offer best prices on connectivity items, but when they offered this one on sale, I jumped on it knowing of the eventual upgrade of my system. I do not regret buying it at least for the sake of keeping up with the technology and having it at my disposal if the cable provided by DirecTV proves inferior.

Exceeded Expectations
on July 21, 2018
Posted by: Phil
from Louisiana
Verified Purchase:Yes
I did not really know what to expect as the worst would have been a flimsy, rickety cabinet. The particle board is solid and the hardware secures all pieces so that it does not give or sway. Match the alpha codes closely to match the few shelves to uprights then group boards accordingly to size and shape before continuing; but most importantly make certain that the laminated side of each board is facing outward, but the rear panel's laminated side should face through to the front facing you as dull side is against the wall. I never questioned capacity but the number of shelves and dimensions make it seem plenty adequate. My only dilemma now is where to place it so that I will not need to move it again later. It will be heavy when loaded with CD's. Priced very well! No regrets or buyer's remorse...

Charge portable electronics while on the move with this myCharge RAZOR TURBO power bank. The compact size makes for a portable traveling companion, while the 12,000 mAh capacity provides a reliable power supply. This myCharge RAZOR TURBO power bank has LED indicators to show the battery level so you know when a recharge is needed.
Can you plug this into a wall outlet to charge?
I stand corrected. That afforementioned cable is included into a different smaller model. Yours in question requires a separate purchase of yet another cable at Best Buy. It’s model and description is as follows: INS 6’ C-A Braided Char.; #’s 6410839; NS-MCA621C. I paid $17.99 plus tax. It is six feet long.

This dryer cord is required for successful hook-up of your new appliance. Our delivery personnel will determine whether a 3- or 4-prong cord is needed based on the outlet behind your existing dryer.
Can someone show me a pic of their 4 wire cord install? I'm having issues with it
I have no picture, but I can share my experience. The recommended 10 gage wiring has three wires: two hot and a ground; but the four wires are in the 8 gage that I had to use on thirty foot length. I used the red and white for hot, the bare for ground, then left the black idle and tied back to the main wiring out of the way.

Only @ Best BuyEasily switch between up to 4 HDMI source components with this HDMI switch that supports 1080p and 3D video for high-definition entertainment and 7.1 surround sound for impressive audio.
I am looking for a switch splitter to connect 4 televisions
This should do the job, but you will need extra long HDMI cables to reach to the other corners or tv stands of the domicile. The accessories and connectivity should be your bigger concern. Order accordingly. I found a 25' HDMI cable on sale last year which is very unusual, and I keep it stored for unusual connection situations. Best Buy does not offer ongoing "best prices" when it comes to connectivity, but occasionally will hit a home run in its "Deal of the Day" offers. Keep your eyes peeled "daily" which is when I get the "best" deals through Best Buy. How about that for a left-handed compliment. I hope this does not offend Best Buy and they have my "Rewards" revoked out of spite.

I was exactly where you are right now when I bought this a couple of months ago as I wondered the same, but have yet to install it waiting for room remodeling and reducing the four outlets to only two or at the most three hopefully with the aid of the splitter enabling all the other receiver or two. I have faith that it will perform as advertised, but hope that the satellite provider will not disapprove. I might need to wait until the next equipment upgrade in several months to reduce the number of outlets before installing the splitter switch; but I do have a blueprint in my mind right now as to how to rearrange it all which is a start.

Is there a reason the switch would not support hdmi ultra hd deep color? Anytime I enable it to get the full potential of the 4K experience I get flashes on the screen, it gets worse if I switch to my 4K player and only when it’s enabled. What’s the issue
I have both a 1080P and 4K HDTV's connected to my recently upgraded 4K signal and both respond accordingly. The contentious constraint that I have learned during the 2 1/2 years of receiving 4K is the limited 4K programming provided by the satellite company who promises will increase to more channels in time: but when? I resign myself to accept this upgraded 4K as simply keeping up with the new technology: staying ahead of the curve, if you will, and nothing more as of yet. Beyond that, I do not know of any 'switch' unless you are referring to the four-way splitter that was recently offered that I purchased of which I read reviews that it had to be manipulated (reset, or manually changed) when changing output ports that feed respective electronic. Try resetting/restarting the unit to redirect the signal to desired port of which was a common reference of remedy which I read: trial and error, I suppose.
