Have a charging cable on hand that isn't tangled up with this BELT cable. An included leather strap keeps it bundled up in one place in your bag, and the 4 foot length gives you plenty of room for charging. This BELT cable has a durable braided exterior, ensuring years of reliable use.

Bought as a Gift...

Bought this for my daughter to use in her car but she ended up taking it to school to charge her phone. Works as expected and it's more durable than the standard cord.

Power your device with this 15W USB-C Port Vehicle Charger with 6ft coiled cable. Its coiled cord prevents it from tangling when you pack it for a trip, and the reversible plug lets you connect it to a smartphone or tablet from either end. This Insignia USB Type-C car charger has a 3-amp output for fast charging.

I've only seen the standard Blu-Ray (Haven't got an Ultra-HD TV yet). It's a beautiful restoration of a nearly 50 year old film! The picture is stunning and the sound crystal clear. Can't wait to upgrade my set so I can see it in UHD!

Welcome to STAR TREK DISCOVERY Season One, an odyssey that unfolds a decade before the era of Star Trek The Original Series. Sonequa Martin-Green stars as Michael Burnham, formerly one of Starfleets's most respected first officers - and now it's first mutineer. A human raised as a Vulcan, Burnham learned early that Inchall life is born from chaos.Inch Her defiance of a direct order resulted in an all-out war with the Klingon Empire, and she was sentenced to life in prison - until Captain Gabriel Lorca (Jason Isaacs) recruits her aboard the U.S.S. Discovery. Joining her on this dramatic, epic journey are Captain Gabriel Lorca (Jason Isaacs), First Officer Saru (Doug Jones), Chief of Security Ash Tyler (Shazad Latif), Chief Engineer Paul Stamets (Anthony Rapp), and Cadet Sylvia Tilly (Mary Wiseman). Together, their powers of logic, science and compassion will meld on their quest for victory, survival and ultimately, peace in the universe.

Give it a Chance...

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm too young to have watched Star Trek during it's first run, but grew up on the reruns and faithfully watched all the spin-offs & films. All the series started off slow, I still find it difficult to watch early episodes of Next Generation, especially. Discovery looks very different than I expected, but I thought the stories were good and I liked the characters as I got to know them. Give it a chance, it's new Star Trek! It's different but I enjoyed the ride and am looking forward to seeing Season 2!

I'm old enough to remember sitting in front of the TV watching the Apollo moon landings as a kid. Seeing it again in HD blew me away, the picture quality is amazing! My only complaint is that it's too short, would have loved to have seen more!

Great ending for Peter Capaldi, loved the interaction between him and his predecessor. Don't want to spoil anything for anyone, but I loved the final scene with Bill. Definitely one of my favorite finales!

A little nervous about the first female doctor, but was quickly put at ease watching the first episode. She's got all the best qualities of the last 4 doctors. Enjoyable stories and I liked seeing the exploration of her companions!

the product is excellent but,
By rksfgiants from san jose
the product is excellent but, when the headlights are on AUTO mode and you enter a shaded area and the headlight turn on, the CARPLAY apple maps goes dark and you cannot see the screen. I'm Sure this is an issue with my Nissan Frontier and not the system. When I'm Driving on a two lane highway in the mountains I always have my headlights on. This makes using the maps app unusable.

Temporarily Turning off Auto-Dimming
September 11, 2018
When you enter a tunnel and your truck's lights come on, tap the button to the right of the Home key. It brings up a bar at the bottom of the screen. On the left side is an icon with the sun and the moon separated by a "/". Tap that and the radio will return to daytime mode! I use this all the time.

This is a must have show especially the Blu-ray version. If you are a fan of Quantum Leap Well! here you go. My only complaint is they didn’t format this to 16x9. Oh well!

16x9 Formatting
September 7, 2019
The show was shot for TV of the time, which was 4x3. If they formatted the Blu Ray for 16x9, they would have to cut the top and bottom of the image! You can simulate this with the "Zoom" picture setting on your TV to see how much of the image you will lose...

Does this camera do the same thing as the peephole camera or no?

No, this mounts on the outside wall near the door and functions as a doorbell and a camera. The camera detects motion nearby, sends an alert and automatically starts recording.

Free up space on your computer with this Western Digital My Passport portable hard drive. This 4TB drive can handle full system backups, or you can use it to transfer a few select files between computers. The slim design of this Western Digital My Passport portable hard drive makes it easy to carry in a backpack, briefcase or purse.
 

As a lifelong PC user, I'm still learning the world of Mac. Having just recently purchased a Mac, I didn't know if this would be compatible and if I would be able to use this product on both a PC and a Mac. Can this be used for both Mac and PC?

This drive can be used with either a Mac or a PC. It comes formatted to be used with a PC, if you wish to use it with a Mac, it must be reformatted, which wipes all the data. You would not be able to use this drive to move files from a Mac to a PC or vice versa. If you're thinking you might switch back to a PC someday, you'd have to reformat the drive to work with the PC, but you wouldn't have to buy a new drive.
