Horrible app, good device

Just don't even download their app. It forces you to sign over any and every bit of data about yourself to be given to any and every entity they want to. They don't tell you what data they take nor who they give it to and there is no way to opt out. This is inexcusable.
I am using the MedM BP app. None of the above privacy issues and works perfectly. Start the app, start the EVOLV, wait. Done. Syncs to fitness trackers. Once it syncs the reading, it clears it from the device so another person can then use it without getting the other users readings in their log.
The cuff could be a little larger and it would be nice if they could find a way to replace the cuff with a larger cuff. We tried another Bluetooth model but MedM BP didn't work with it. Really wanted that one to work since we have the non-Bluetooth model and have a larger cuff for it.
This seems to work very well. Can't really comment on its accuracy. Accurate or not, it give you an idea of your blood pressure and you can check anytime you want to get a trend. I've currently been on Keto diet, lost around 30 pounds, been working out on my Concept 2 rower, walking, stretching, dumbbells, etc. and I'm seeing my blood pressure start to trend down from hypertension stage 1 to normal. It just depends on the day and time. This is giving me feedback on my progress and that is important.

The cap works great. Easy to grab, drink from then it seals itself. It's easy to disassemble and clean the cap. I'm using it for cold brew coffee so no idea on heat retention and my coffee is gone by the time I get to work. Can't comment much on value as I got it on sale cheap.

Got this for a trip to run my laptop that has a 60 W charger. Ran fine, quiet, no issues. Ran it for about an hour. Didn't try the USB port. Could use a pouch and a cord keeper.

I have loved this franchise since the first movie. Great characters. Great animation. Great story. I don't know what I'll do now. Toothless is the best. I do hope this is not the last we will see of this world. Lovers of animation and dragons must own this series.

Almost perfect

Verified Purchase:Yes
One star docked for Disney's continued insistence in not including Dolby Vision in the physical media. I'm really getting sick of that.
Absolutely no excuse for no Dolby Vision. I've had it with this one. And really 4K up conversion? Were they that strapped for cash they had to resort to 2k Digital Intermediaries? Enough already.
Fine ending to the MCU I suppose. Several plot holes if you ask me. I won't spoil it in case someone lives under a rock, but that one hurt. They were my favorite. As always, must own for all MCU fans.

Meh

Verified Purchase:Yes
Just meh. This one was meh to me. Must have for the MCU fan, but the weakest of the Thor series for sure and nearly the weakest of the entire MCU catalog. Maybe even the weakest. The dark elves were horribly designed to me and while I loved Christopher Eccleston as the Doctor, he just sucked here. Not that he really had much to draw from.

Another good origin story
on August 16, 2019
Posted by: Grewterd
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been a bit of a Thor fan most of my life. While we never had the financial resources that would allow me to buy comics when I was a kid, I got the ones I could and enjoyed Thor immensely. As an origin story, this is a good one. Falling behind Batman Begins and well behind Iron Man in my view. Still, great show, loads of fun.

Best origin story ever
on August 16, 2019
Posted by: Grewterd

To me this is by far the best of the MCU movies and the best origin story out there. Mostly because or RDJ's amazing talent. I'm so anxious for a few days off work to binge the new 4k releases that came with this.

Lesser MCU title, but it's RDJ!

I like most like myself love the MCU movies. Even this one. It's certainly far from the best of the series but as a big fan of RDJ before he donned the suit, it's a great watch and a must have for any MCU fan.

It~s the best of the best. We didn~t raise the bar, we shut it down. The Redline 360c sets the new standard for radar detectors with extreme detection range, 360~ directional awareness, 100% true stealth and the best overall performance from any detector. Get ready to REDefine the Road with the Redline 360c.

Great Radar Detector but Needs Some Fine Tuning
By L4D44
Great All-in-One radar detector. Impressive range and solid build quality. Includes awesome mag mount which will build the unit firmly in place on your windshield.
Escort Live is decent but the app needs more work to be considered reliable.
One issue, which is unknown if it can be fixed via a software update or not, is the detector’s sluggish reactivity to Instant-On Ka band. The older model Max 360C reacts better to quick trigger/IO than this latest flagship model for Escort. Hopefully this is not a hardware issue and a future update can address this - but don’t hold your breath when it comes to Escort and timely firmware updates/support.
Also arrows transition good but can be a little better. BSM filtering is very good, not great. You will get the occasional punch-through with some Honda’s and Mazda CX5s.
Note: you must enable K-NOTCH (default is disabled) to help reduce K band falsing. This is done through the radar detector menu settings and NOT through the Escort Live app because that option is not available to enable or disable.
You also get a nice zipper carrying case which includes a mag mount and a cigarette lighter power adapter. Make sure to register the product to receive 90 days of free Defender database updates (red light cameras alerts, speed cam alerts, user reported alerts, etc). After the trial period you have to purchase a subscription which is available in 1 year and 3 year options. Also I recommend to purchase the 2-year extended warranty (directly from Escort Radar) which gives you a total of 36 months of peace of mind in case anything were to go wrong. And with most electronics, something is bound to go wrong eventually, especially when the detectors are in the windshield and face extreme weather conditions sometimes.
Lastly this detector is RDD (radar detector detector) immune meaning that it is stealth in places where radar detectors are illegal to operate (Virginia, DC and commercial truck drivers).
The positives outweigh the negatives with this product but it still needs to be refined and fine-tuned. It is very expensive and most would say overpriced. Something to consider.

Arrow response

My understanding from Vortex Radar on that video sharing site is they updated the firmware to address the arrow sluggishness, not sure on instant on, but most likely addressed. Hope that helps.

The IdeaPad 1i raises the bar on every affordable laptop with a super-efficient Intel Celeron N4020 processor in a thin and compact 17.9 mm chassis with up-to-10 hours of battery life and rapid charge. Get more value with four-sided narrow bezels for maximum screen, Dolby Audio speakers and Flip to Start for instant bootup.
 

What is the input voltage of the computer? I'm wondering if I can charge this using a 12v car battery.

Clean carpets like a pro with this BISSELL carpet cleaning machine. Its powerful motor and DirtLifter brushes remove dirt from the carpet, and the Tough Stain tool gets rid of embedded spills with its spray-and-scrub action. This BISSELL carpet cleaning machine comes with a cleaning formula infused with Scotchgard to clean, deodorize and protect carpets and upholstery.
 

Is the water heated, if so, to what temp?

If you are asking if the machine heats the clean water/solution, it does not. I just run tap water as hot as it will get and run it.
