Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased these to allow me to remotely power cycle some cameras. The only issue I had was the manual power buttons that control each outlet and they can be inadvertently turned off by simply pressing the button which means the installation has to be done with in mind.

iPad Mini 6th generation
on June 14, 2024
Posted by: Cazzie
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a replacement for a much older iPad mini. It is great. Most of the differences are iOS differences because the older iPad was running iOS 15 . x.x. I really like the size of the mini. No Apple pen at this point but I may add it later. I use from HomeKit Matter.

j5create cable caveat
on November 10, 2023
Posted by: Cazzie
Verified Purchase:Yes
J5create gear is very good, but this particular cable doesn't work to power the Apple iPhone 15 when it has an Apple skin case on it as the hole on the USB C is too small for the larger j5create USB C cable. Hence my rating of 4.

Beddit 3.0 Sleep Analysis device
on April 15, 2022
Posted by: Cazzie
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased the Beddit 3.0 because it was on a Deal of the Day and it was a fair price for discontinued product. It works very well. It produces a very interesting report and reports trends that I find very enlightening. It allows you to annotate with additional detail and solicits your review of how rested you feel.

One of my favorite movies and now I have the 4K HDR version for my library. A classic. Resolution is excellent. Didn't really see any extra content in the extended edition, but look forward to watching the theatrical version to compare what scenes were added.

Don't underestimate the Eve Button
on October 15, 2021
Posted by: Cazzie
Verified Purchase:Yes
It is easy to underestimate the function the Eve Button provides to a variety of HomeKit devices. It has three types of pushes for the button, one, two, and long. I am able to turn on/off lights in a scene with either a single or double push. You can also dim some of the lights in a scene using the long push. The Eve products are well engineered, but not inexpensive. Tech support does respond and seems helpful. It didn't really apply to this device, but is a part of the review as I have two other Eve products and wouldn't hesitate to buy more types if I didn't already have a large selection of other HomeKit devices

With Eve Weather, track your current outdoor temperature, humidity and barometric pressure, and see the weather trend at a glance - on your iPhone or directly on the display. Review current and past climate data, empowering you with insights of the weather on your doorstep. Or ask Siri what the temperature's like outside. Eve Weather joins your Thread network automatically, protects your privacy, and is Apple HomeKit-enabled for outstanding ease of use with iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.
 

If the weather station is located outside will I need a Blue Tooth extender? Can the weather station be monitored on my iPhone via Homekit app while away from home?

I have two of these version 2 devices mounted inside our fiberglass RV and can read the from inside my house without an extender. They can use Eve “Thread” to enhance their connectivity and I do have a couple of those to enhance my connectivity to a third device mounted outside on my deck.

Does this need outdoor sensors?

No. The sensors are integrated into the weather resistant case.

Can you use multiple thermometers at the same time with the app? For example, install one on my grill to monitor the temperature of the grill, and put another one on the meat I am cooking.

You can have multiple thermometers but am not sure can concurrently monitor more than one at a time without manual switching focus via iOS device.

Can the Yummly be used in a pizza oven?

I believe so but the station needs to communicate with the thermometer and your iOS device via Bluetooth

So I see the cord to connect to a iPhone but does it have to be plugged in to monitor or will it Bluetooth to my phone?

It has to be powered by enclosed power brick or equivalent USB A.

Would I have to buy a certain type of bulb to make the bulb come on with motion?

I have used the Eve sensor with LIFx bulbs without issue. All my Eve components work other HomeKit approved gear without issue so I suspect you can use this sensor with anything you have assuming it is HomeKit approved.

Sync data, transfer files and charge your device with this Platinum 6-inch female USB dongle. Equipped with a flexible braided cable, this gadget comes with a Type A connector on one end and a Type C port on the other. This Platinum 6-inch female USB dongle has a white and silver design, which coordinates with a range of Apple products.
 

Is the USB A end USB 3.0 or greater?

As far as I know, It converts only and does not enhance the USB-A speed.
