John's Questions
 
Designed with 299Wh capacity and charging up to 6 devices at once, the Anker SOLIX 522 is a best portable battery powered generator to power your 99% consumer electronics like cell phone, laptop, drones, fan, TV and etc when you are in on-the-go off grid adventures(camping, tailgating, RV road trip , gateway) or as an emergency home backup if the electricity goes out unexpectedly. As a portable power station, it weighs only 8.6 pounds, making it a breeze to carry around.
 

Is this item refurbished or new? I opened the sealed box and there are fingerprints, smudges and wipe marks on the unit. It also won't charge to 100%. Really seems like a refurb but I don't see anything that mentions refurbished.

I had the Google version of this TV and it would only output stereo PCM over optical and ARC. Is this TV any different? I'm looking for Dolby digital surround sound over optical.

The A6G series. Proving that good things come in big packages too. Take your pick from 85~, 75~, 70~, 65~, 60~, 55~, 50~ and 43~ screens. For 4K UHD picture quality, in the perfect size for your space. With Android TV, you can discover 700,000+ movies and shows in one place. Ask Google to control your TV with your voice. And cast your photos, videos, and music from devices to your TV easily with Chromecast built-in~. Add to that Dolby Vision HDR and Auto Low Latency Game Mode. Or as we call it, a great looking TV.
 

I'm considering buying this TV but I'm not sure if I can get surround sound signals from the optical port. I don't have an ARC or eARC receiver and rely on optical connection. The TV I have now downmixes everything to stereo out of the optical port.

Does this tv support 5.1 channel surround sound? I've tried everything possible and can only get stereo PCM out of this TV. Whether it's apps, live tv, PlayStation or a blu-ray player I get nothing but stereo even though the TV is set to pass thru. Optica

Store important games, videos, music, and more on this Western Digital Blue series hard drive. Its 2.5-inch form factor makes it suitable for use in laptops or notebooks. This 1TB Western Digital Blue series hard drive runs at 5400 rpm for decreased heat and power consumption.
 

I installed the drive but the computer isn't finding it. is there a download or something I need?

You have to initialize the disk. One way to do that is to connect to a computer via USB and go to disk management and it will prompt you to initialize.

Google Home Mini is a smart speaker powered by the Google Assistant, so you can ask it questions and tell it to do things. Just start with "Ok Google" to enjoy your entertainment, get answers from Google, tackle your day, and control your smart home. Google Home Mini works on its own or you can have a few around the house, giving you the power of Google anywhere."
 

Is the home mini compatible to Pandora and spoify? And am I able to use at the office?

Yes, it is. You can link pandora and spotify accounts in the google home app. Regarding using at the office, as long as you have an internet connection there then it will work.
