Cannot be hard-wired
on December 2, 2022
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
I cannot properly review, as I returned the two I bought immediately after opening one of them after finding out that there is no way to permanently wire them for power. I was sure that I had read in the product info that they could be wired in, but no.

A good deal on a needed cable for my i-Devices. I know that Apple will be phasing out the Lightning port, but this should help carry me over until they do.

A good, lightweight bag
on May 25, 2022
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
I ordered this for my wife for a business trip, and she loves it. It is lightweight, made with recycled materials, and has adequate room for her computer and peripherals. The only thing she does not like is the velcro wrap for the top handles, which is not much of one as most similar bags have the same thing.

Performed as well as I could have hoped!
on March 26, 2022
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
We are in a semi-rural area and so WiFi and cellphone service are spotty, but so far the AirTags have performed as expected. Once or twice after I checked for locations out of curiosity they did not appear on my phone immediately, but later on they did, so I think there are still some bugs to be worked out. One issue is that you cannot share AirTags with family members: they can only be tied to one single Apple ID, which is a limitation that I hope they eventually fix.

Easy to install, and stays in place!

I was worried that this might not stay on, but so far very good! We have two dogs, one of which is a very active boxer who loves to chew and destroy everything, but he has not been able to get these off his or our other dog's collars.

Easy to set up & works great!
on June 14, 2021
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for a way to control the lights & fan in the gazebo on our deck because the outlet is in an inconvenient spot, and this works great! Having two smart outlets controlled by a phone app makes it easy to turn things on and off. There are also physical switches on the unit itself so you can control them even if your phone isn't nearby. Set up was easy, and you can name the plugs & even attach a picture, too.

Good inexpensive controller

I wanted an inexpensive controller to play games in a Tesla, and so far this one works great. The buttons all feel pretty solid, although I have not used it too much yet and do not need all of the ones that are available.

A good webcam if you need one
on January 8, 2021
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
We bought this as a webcam for my office manager's desktop. Good picture and sound quality so far. Very easy to set up and use, although the clamp could be stronger or perhaps spring-loaded to make it grip the monitor better.

This compact 30 hour Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier guards against problems caused by dry air in the home. It features an easy to fill .80 gallon tank, ideal to use on table tops, for use in small to medium rooms. Unlike other humidifiers that grow slimy mold on the water tank surface, Silver Clean Protection is embedded in the tank to fight the growth of mold and mildew on the surface of the water tank. Thanks to ultrasonic technology, it disperses a fine mist into the air, and is ultra-quiet making it ideal to have on while you sleep. It has an optional aromatherapy tray so a few drops of essential oil can be added to create a relaxing atmosphere. A low water indicator light lets you know when it's time to refill the water tank, and auto shut off feature when the water is too low. PureGuardian humidifiers create a better home environment for those suffering from colds, allergies and dry skin. Note: Run time is based off of running the unit on low setting and cool mist, also depends on atmospheric conditions.

Small but strong humidifier
on January 8, 2021
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
We bought this to replace a humidifier that was maybe 3 or 4 years old but the fan burnt out. This one seems pretty good so far, although it is somewhat small compared to our last one. It does last through the night and is relatively quiet.

Keep the charge going, no matter where you are. The PwrUp Qi Magnet Mount offers a new way to charge your Qi-compliant smartphones. The 10w certified Qi charger will allow your phone to charge at the fastest speed possible. This mount features a strong magnet that will hold your device securely while on the road. For easy one-handed operation, you simply attach the metal bars to the back of your phone and you~re ready to go. You can adjust the height of optimal viewing by sliding the device holder up/down or vertical/horizontal. The suction cup is made with our Temporbond material, which allows you to mount it to smooth or textured surfaces. If your mount ever becomes ~un-sticky~, you can clean the suction cup with warm, soapy water and let it air dry. You can easily attach and remove the mount at any time and is transferrable between vehicles. There is an optional vent bracket with a stabilizer bar included, giving you multiple ways to mount your smartphone. You will also receive a captive USB-C cable for charging
 

Does this work with iPhone 6..?

Not unless you add a wireless charging receiver because the iPhone 6 series does not have wireless charging, but if you do that, it should work. I had put one on my 6S; it's a flat plastic tab with embedded electric coils in it and a Lightning plug. I had it inside my case, and it worked fine; you have to unplug it though if you want to plug in a Lightning cord for syncing or charging. I put that coil on my wife's 6S, and she's thrilled for the wireless charging.upgrade.
