VERY GOOD PRODUCT

Verified Purchase:Yes
Recently leased a new vehicle which allows your phone to be automatically hooked up for hands free answering. It has a generic extension USB cable to connect a cord. I didn't want a long lightning cord attached so purchased this 6" cord that worked perfectly. I highly recommend this short cord.

GREAT PRODUCT FOR STORAGE AND PORTABILITY
on November 21, 2020
Posted by: Hottoddie
Verified Purchase:Yes
Because I do photography as a hobby, I always need external drives to backup all pictures I take. I have many external drives, but this 2TB is just the right size and weight to carry with me in my purse to share any pictures on any computer. I have always bought WD, it really is very reliable and easy to use. Very satisfied with this drive and the capacity for storage is just right.

This is a great little charger to have on hand all the time. It is very light weight, I do have a larger and heavier one, and very portable. When my tablets begin to lose battery time from loads of use during the day, this little charger gives me the boost I need. Would recommend, lightweight and can take anywhere.

Very pleased with this shredder. It was larger than my old one, but in the price range I found acceptable. So happy I purchased this, it is extremely reliable and fast. The top is very heavy when you lift it to empty the container so you have to be careful and make sure it is securely placed back in position when you return it to the container. I would highly recommend this for a reasonable priced shredder that does the job.

Store this pack of 48 AAA batteries so you always have some handy. With bulk alkaline batteries in the drawer, you don't have to run to the store every time you get a new device or battery-powered toy. These 48 AAA batteries are the right size to power many small toys, gadgets and remote controls.

ONE OF THE BEST PRINTERS EVER
on June 13, 2020
Posted by: Hottoddie
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had this printer for two years now and never wrote a review only because of laziness. This is a gem and if anything happened to it I would definitely replace immediately. I work on graphics and it does a great job printing photos, as well as, anything you need to print. I love the wide body and do a lot of larger printing. One of the best features, it uses generic ink and the color is spectacular. My previous wide body was an Epson and I thought that was great until it broke and I replaced it with this Canon. This is a wonderful all around printer, price wise it was great and generic ink that does a fantastic job just can't be beat. Highly recommend as an all around printer.

Feel the Power of our Turbo Force~ Heater, engineered to deliver iconic Turbo Force~ circulation and powerful heat, on demand! Electronic controls with 2 heat levels and a fan-only setting and an adjustable thermostat are designed to quickly provide warmth AND heated air circulation when and how you need it. There are 4 timer options, three customizable oscillation selections for personal area up to whole room heating. The optional feature of SafeGuard ~ Auto Shut-Off will automatically turn the heater off after 8 hours of use for peace of mind. Enhanced safety features allow for peace of mind, while a pivoting head and oscillation function provide flexibility, so that you can personalize your comfort in any season.
 

Can it be used outside on the deck

Actually you can use it anywhere. But this is not like a heater made for outdoors. This blows heat by fan. If it is blowing on or near you it certainly will help. It is a great little heater. But it does not radiate heat like an outside heater. Hope this helps.

Am I going to envy not having a larger power supply with this powerful i7 desktop? 180 watts seems very low.

I don’t know how you are using this machine. I bought it for Photoshop and other heavy graphics rendering. I am not disappointed with the speed and performance so far. Hope this helps.

Play great music with this portable GPX Bluetooth boombox. The top-load disc player lets you conveniently insert or eject an audio disc, while built-in FM and AM antennas support clear transmission signals for your favorite radio stations. This GPX Bluetooth boombox features a two-digit red LED display for monitoring different functions and controls.
 

Can you plug in head phones? If so does the sound only go through the head phones when plugged in?

Bluetooth only, no headphone jack, then, yes, sound only through headset. Have no idea why it doesn't have a headphone jack. Rather dumb to me. Would not have bought it if I knew that in advance. Very inconvenient. Hope this helps.

Can this run on batteries. What kind of batteries are they and for how long will it run the player?

Yes, 6 "C" batteries. Makes it a bit heavier. Hope this helps.

No, didn't know that when I purchased it. You have to connect wireless ear pods with Bluetooth. I probably would not have bought it if I had realized no headphone jack.

Can you transfer pics from iPhone without loading in a computer first?

The drive comes with a USB cable to connect to computers. I always download from my computer. I am not aware of any cables to download directly from the iPhone. I also have an iPhone and several flash drives to download from iPhone, but I'm not aware of a lightning cable with the proper connections to download direct from phone to hard drive. There is no Wifi.

Have a question about 77d availability I’m seeing that the 77d body is sold Out will there be more being sold in the near future at the same price ? Hope you can answer !

Have no idea, Chris, I am guessing that it has been discontinued because the 90d just came out. You can contact BestBuy.

The drive should work on any computer through a USB port. No adapter should be necessary.
