Moar MCU

Yeah, moar MCU in 4K. Love the movies. Sick and tired of Disney's lack of Dolby Vision support. Anyway, if you are into 4K and MCU, of course you have to do the Disney upgrade routine.

I'm obsessed, again
on April 27, 2019
Posted by: Grewterd
from Knoxville tn
Verified Purchase:Yes
Just like when it was released on the PS2, I'm obsessed all over again. Lots of memories, and thinking why did I ever get rid of my old game guides? Now I'm scrambling to find used ones at good prices. I have not played this on TV, just on the Switch screen, but it looks great. Only complaints are that load times between scenes are a bit sluggish and that FFX-2 is a download code, it's not on the cartridge. I don't get that, it seems that it should have been on the cartridge or if they do not make a cartridge with enough storage, then a second cartridge be packaged for FFX-2. If I wanted digital versions of my games, I would not have bought the physical version.

Looked over for what it did
on April 20, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie has mostly been looked over. This was one of the first animated features to combine CGI and cell animation. That's really about the only reason it's in my collection. Else, it's rather boring. I got this to replace my DVD when it was on sale.

One of THE pivitol sci-fi classics
on April 20, 2019
Posted by: Grewterd

Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie has defined the genre since it's release. I consider this a must own movie for sci-fi fans so the 4K upgrade was a no-brainer for me. Buy this if you have a 4K setup.

What can you say about The Matrix that has not been said? It's a ground breaking movie, now in 4K. If you have a 4K setup and you want more to feed it, get it. Else, stick with the HD release.

Not the remake but good
on April 20, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's not as good as the remake series, but this is still a very entertaining heist story with a descent enough twist at the end. But maybe I'm bias because I love Sandra Bullock so much.

Best battery for Switch
on March 22, 2019
Posted by: Grewterd
from Knoxville tn
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is hands down the best battery pack for the Nintendo Switch. Capacity is huge, it's pretty well designed and it's easy to attach and remove.
The company however, is a bit crooked. Whatever you do, do not buy it directly from them. I spend 2 months trying to get my money back from them. Not so with Best Buy, it arrived in days.
It could be easier to get to the game card slot, I have to open the top hinge part to get to the slot, it's not hard to do so not that big of a deal. I wish the case had a carry strap and the game card storage were better, but it's a nice enough case.

Great, close to perfect
on March 22, 2019
Posted by: Grewterd
from Knoxville tn
Verified Purchase:Yes
Easy to use for the most part. The app is pretty good, but has some flaws. My biggest complaints are how it's nearly impossible to set the cooking time without the app, how hard it is to get connected to WiFi in certain situations (it wasn't hard for me but I know many others with 5GHz networks that make it much more difficult than it needs to be) and the fact the the firmware cannot be updated. The last one is really the big one. The rate at which security vulnerabilities are discovered in these types of devices makes this a huge issue for me.
I like that the shroud that covers the impeller, element and temp probes can be removed to aid in cleaning and drying. It's very quiet, heats quickly, maintains stable temperature and is quite close to my Thermapen's readings.
I certainly do not regret the purchase and if you are thinking about getting into Sous Vide this is a great choice. I went with the WiFi mostly because I just despise how unreliable Bluetooth is. The added benefit is that I can monitor the device from anywhere. Is that required? No, but I like to have the ability.

Terrific Origin Story

One of the better origin stories to me. Cap is played, much to my surprise, very well. I was not so sure about the casting, but it was a good choice. Must own for all those MCU fans.

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.

Did this come with a storage case to protect both the Switch and the 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.
