Nice portable scanner

Seems to work well. Have to be careful opening and closing, but generally a nice portable solution for duplex scanning. Software is fine, but not fabulous.

Enhance your Hue lighting system with this Philips Hue dimmer switch. Removing the control unit from the magnetic base plate lets you use it as a handheld remote, and the on button also adjusts Philips colors and set ambiance levels. Adjust light settings precisely with this wireless Philips Hue dimmer switch.

Works great if you want to have simple Hue control
on October 10, 2020
Posted by: KBoer
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am a technophile married to a technophobe--these switches make everyone in the house happy! I can still set up Hue zones, settings, voice commands, and more while other users can use on and off similar to a standard wall switch. Extra bonus is that because it is not wired, you can install anywhere.

Google Pixel 4 is the phone made the Google way. Its camera takes a perfect shot every time, even when it's dark out. The new Google Assistant helps you do things, such as control your phone and multitask between apps - with just your voice. Pixel 4 is also the first phone with Motion Sense, letting you use gestures to get things done without having to touch your phone. Google Pixel 4 is built around Google software you know and love that's always getting better.

Pixel 4 was a huge leap up from my Pixel 2 and seems to just work. Responsive and functional. Really like the added functionality when combined with the Google Pixel Stand.

Setup intuitive and usage easy
on September 27, 2019
Posted by: KBoer
Verified Purchase:Yes
We replaced an old Rainbird 16 zone controller with the Rachio 3 16 zone. Most everything is just better. Setup was beyond easy and once hardware installed the app on my phone made it simple to assign values while confirming operation of the device.
We did have an issue with our internet provider that shut off our connection for a few days and while it made sense the Rachio was out of sync, so far is the only thing I've missed. Definitely a leap forward in convenience, control/precision, and simplicity.

Great Genuine HP Cartridge

Works perfect for my HP OfficeJet Pro 8625. Could try using refills etc. but the XL cartridges last long and why risk saving a little cash versus having a quality print job which was my objective in purchasing my printer...

My husband is a huge fan of headlamps and the power cap is a good addition to his collection. Lighting is light weight and cap fits well such that it helps keep him warm while being able to see when out working in dark areas. Light is decent and is a great cost to performance value.

Still adjusting but Impressed by Customer Service!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am an ex-user of the now defunct Living Cookbook recipe manager. I still miss several LC2015 features, but since the validation tool is dead, wanted something to replace before I lost my years of hard work. Had issues with exporting due to a bug in LC and thought I was stuck and needing to start over. MasterCook customer service took my backup file and converted it with no issues the same day. Impressed!!!

Work and look great but no 3-way option

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Wemo Dimmer solutions work fantastic and look great in the house without calling themselves out for looking bad or requiring a hub of sort, just wi-fi. We continue to add them to our house as we have gotten hooked on the functionality. If Belkin provided a 3-way type solution with their switches, would be perfect, but unfortunately are currently limited to single pole switch locations.

Working with our Liftmaster without a hitch

Verified Purchase:Yes
Since installing the MyQ in conjunction with our old (post-1993) Liftmaster Garage Opener, it has just worked. I have alerts going to my Pixel 3 when door is opened and is consistently accurate and has yet to go offline or give false info. Works with my Nest although would be nice if IFTT did not require a paid service.

How far from the dimmer switch can the remote be, and does it have to be in direct line of sight

No, the switch just needs to be attached to the wireless network and programmed to match the appropriate Hue bulbs. As long as that criteria is met, could be placed in a completely different area and still function.

Will it work with liftmaster

It definitely works with our Liftmaster openers and the compatibility listing on the MyQ website says it supports all Liftmaster openers 1993 and newer.

Make home gatherings more intimate with this Philips Hue white and color ambiance BR30 bulb. It can be customized to provide a gentle glow or changed to gleam in amber, all via the accompanying app. Sync this Philips Hue white and color ambiance BR30 bulb to your movies to get extra entertainment value.
 

I have my lights on a dimmer now. Do I have to put it back on a regular switch or can it work with a non Philips switch?

My understanding is that they can work if the switch is on max, but per Philips support is NOT recommended and can sometimes behave erratically when connected to this type of device.
