a topgun repeat
on July 12, 2023
Posted by: Controler
Verified Purchase:Yes
this is another example of repeat storyline sequel which i hate. The same is true with many other movie sequels which made me stop going to theaters . read other bad reviews that proves my point ,, but i also did not read any reviews before buying this, so after viewing it ,, what a disappointment .. however ,, if i never seen the original topgun ,, i may have enjoyed it.
i wanted to see real flying scenes as advertised and to see how realistic to enjoy air combat .. which was nice ,, but then again ,, it was presented in showy movie hype ,, when i would have preferred an in cockpit view of dogfight to follow from beginning to end take down ,, instead of fake missiles avoidance with quick jumping back and forth scenes to dazzle you which is movieland hype .. is a joke ..
i like tom cruse movies ,, but this was a let down for me .. no new story line ,, no feelings for cast ,, no what is next excitement build up ,, it was so predictable because it was a total copy of the original topgun .
i also ask what is the purpose of topgun ,, it to dogfight and it is not to go do a bomb run and avoid missiles ,, if the writers of this movie would have watched history channel show call dogfight ,, and made a movie out of one of their episode ,, this topgun would have been a bigger hit ..
so buying this, is just for the flying to see again and again , and to see things you donna see when you watch the first time ,, when there is nothing else to do ,, and so glad i did not pay to see once at the theater ..

as basic as a gps can be
on March 26, 2023
Posted by: Controler
Verified Purchase:Yes
if you can get the larger size gps ,, do it .. as it will be easier to see and you will see more of what is ahead .. which is my main disappoint with this unit .. i have the 65 which i love for size and features ,, and then bought the 86 when 86 went on sale after i got this 5" unit because it was on sale ..
the mapping software is the same for each 3 units ,, it works all the same way in routing each time i use the routing ,, i always evaluate the route and make changes which is best for me .. if you let it do it ,, it will always select major highways and roads as the primary which you need to understand ... but may not be the best route for you .. so you should evaluate it ..
the other way i route too ,, is instead of making the changes ,, i just drive the roads i want and let then let the gps catch up with where i am going ,, and it works just as great .. and will eventually re-route you the way you like too ..
the disappointments i have is that this unit is that this will zoom itself all the time which i don't like ,, when i want to drag the map to see farther in my trip ,, and then have to go thru trouble of zooming back to my original zoom ,, this is dangerous when driving ,, it should not be a zoom monster ...
the brain or processing chip seem to be slower too as the screen scrolls ,, but is just an observation and non factor.. overall , i will still keep this unit since i have 3 older cars and gps is a great tool for those occasions .. and i wish garmin never got rid of the hand held remote .. which i still have from decades old unit ..

you need this with m.2
on February 25, 2023
Posted by: Controler
Verified Purchase:Yes
i'm really happy to see this and jumped immediately to buy this ,, since i not seen anything like this months before .. when i was looking for way to create backups with m.2 .. and this thing was just plug it in and you are working and is perfect ...
though $20 is not a sale price ,, it is a lot cheeper than anything else out there .. since m.2 came out ,, everything for it is really expensive and priced ludicrously high ... and i do not care about performance and do not keep it connected constantly .. but use when i want to do backup .. or other things . .
i like to thank other reviewers that warn about the plastic tab to hold the m.2 in .. everyone should look at their pictures and reviews to be careful with it .. i also added a photo to show where it is ..
thus be very careful to remove it,, warning ,, do not grab it on end of tab but only on the center of it to twist off .. i bet if you break it ,, you could just get a tiny screw and just use that to work by forcing a screw to thread into plastic and that would be a better solution too .. use your common sense .. if you do try it

my carry garmin
on February 25, 2023
Posted by: Controler
Verified Purchase:Yes
the case is very stiff but is only card board ,, that all you have to do is stick your hand inside and bend the whole pocket to shape which will allows your gamin to slip in/out easily .. also ,, since i have the 5" ,, i can leave the back clip on it too and fit it inside ,, see my photo .. the only negative is the magnetic flap close ,, which is not strong and a button would been better .. and putting your garmin in a case is lot safer than no case when you demount it .

if you have the need to fly
on January 27, 2023
Posted by: Controler
Verified Purchase:Yes
got this for my pc gaming flying ,, you just canna do it with a keyboard .. and there are many buttons ,,so you really need a manual to understand and maybe how to assign them buttons and even to locate which is which ,, which is no easy task .. .. but so far ,, all i want to do is just simple flying ,, and slowly going thru all the steps of flight sim ... to just fly
best would be to mount it on a solid surface .. i put it on the next level stand ,, where a shifter would be ,,, and did not have to drill any new holes but had to buy some long screws and nuts ,, however ,, the throttle is just sitting next to me on the sofa ... as i soar and float ,,, so would like to setup a mount for it later ..
pricey too but also wanted the better quality joy-stick ..

need a wheel , this is nice
on January 27, 2023
Posted by: Controler
Verified Purchase:Yes
my first one ,, would not power up after a week ,, no dc output voltage from the brick ,,then bought aftermarket ac/dc adapter and still wheel would not power on .. bestbuy took it back after i just used it 4 times no problem and ordered me a another new one .. 2nd one has been working for at least 2 weeks now .. seem to be a common issue too ..
i have the g25 from years ago ,, but this includes the console type buttons too and many others buttons if you want to use ,, the feel is realistic to drive and i can drive a concise line , , but i got this for pc gaming and mounting on a solid stand makes a huge difference to play with .. and waiting now for pc forza motorsport and pc gt7 ... pricey and seems to solid in feel ,, but hopefully will last for a while before i wear it out ..

Step up your photography with the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV body. It has a 30.4-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor and a 100-32,000 ISO range that lets you take large photos that are sharp and bright. The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV body is ideal for shooting action photos with speeds of up to seven frames per second.
Overall4 out of 5
4 out of 5Overly priced, not what i expected
By tess73

Not for beginners confusing options in the menu it may be the same with the mark III? You really have to know what each thing does or what it doesn't do, it maybe easier for someone who has worked with pro level cameras before? color is not the same as most canons (lighter not as vibrant) and that is one thing I wish they didn't change cause I loved canon's color .It was said in a review you rarely miss shots with it , I found I miss just as many shots as I do with my 6D and my T6i and that is using a center focus point, I also used the auto focus and moved focus points and it missed shots. I think people would be better off with the mark iii until the price drops on the IV unless you feel you need the extra MP's and it would be worth it to you paying the higher price. It's not a terrible camera but not worth the high price tag in my opinion.

I was searching for a remote control to do some self-shoots with my husband. Technically this works, but you must point the remote directly to the IR sensor of the camera, otherwise it will not be recognized. If you don't want to have the remote in all your pictures you will (depending on your camera) possibly need a firmware update or add-on to get a delay between pressing the button and the actual photo.
The biggest issue I had was finding out which cameras are working with the remote control. The internet isn't helpful at all and even the QR code on the package itself leads into nowhere. I can at least tell that it works with my (old old) Canon EOS 500d.
So, with some minus points still a working accessoire.

Connect up to 4 devices to the coaxial connection from your cable or indoor/outdoor VHF/UHF/FM antenna with this mini drop amplifier. It works with the DC power provided by components, or with the AC power provided by the included adapter.
I have 4 TV's wired for cable & trying to switch to antenna. Purchased RF-G1179 splitter. Installed antenna & plugged antenna cable into INPUT, & connected power. When I disconnect first TV cable wire & plug into output can't scan any channels no signal??
it looks like you are doing a first time ota tv antenna , either indoor or outdoor ,, you may need to point your antenna to transmitting tower .. and get a signal ,, if weak , then the amp will boost the signals .. if you have no signal the amp will do nothing ..

Would like to use this lens to photograph the Grand Canyon. I am an amateur photographer with an EOS Rebel SL1. Would I be able to use this lens with this camera & have it on auto focus? Thank you for your time.
if your question is real ,, my personal = no ,, for many reasons ...you would not understand based on your experience level ..
if you can spend $2k lens with $400 camera ,, i would recommend getting a bridge camera like a nikon p1000 or p500 series ..

if you just a lens recommendation , i see bestbuy has the Sigma 8-16mm as a better match for you level and camera ,, to just answer your question which is for the wide angle view and auto ..and save you about $1300 .. .

Double your camera's battery life without adding a lot of bulk with this Canon battery grip. Vertically positioned controls offer easy access to the camera's shutter release and AF controls. Compatible with the Mark IV DSLR camera, this Canon battery grip offers room for up to two Li-ion battery packs.
I thinking of ordering Canon Mark IV 5d body only. Before placing order include a free Canon BG-E20 Battery Grip-black. Do you know if batteries is included in the grip. Please advise Thank you.
Charge small appliances with this Insignia extension cord. Its 9-foot length lets you run the lightweight cable around the room for versatile placement, and the three grounded outlets provide extra charging points. This 16-gauge Insignia extension cord has a PVC coating for long-lasting use, and the easy-grip plug is quick to remove.
wall outlet is a two prong is there any extension cords that will fit in two prong but be able to plug a grounded cord from a tv lets say
you are better off just changing the old wall 2 prong outlet ,, home depot -lowes or hardware store sells 3 prongs ,, swap out your old and connect the ground ,, and you are not just better off but safer too
