unless you're ebay'ing or apt at using the crimp tool, this is a well priced cable that available off the shelf in a brick & mortar store, leave the wifi for portable devices. my advice is to always have a spare.

a mighty mouse

Verified Purchase:Yes
this is a excellent mouse. glides effortlessly and buttons have good feedback. doesn't require much space to move across the screen yet provides pinpoint accuracy. dual wheels are a great alternative to a touchpad. although apple mouse is much preferred, this is a solid option for those using a PC.

great keyboard
on July 27, 2024
Posted by: mjohns
Verified Purchase:Yes
love this keyboard .. just wish the back lighting had more customization. there's little offered in the app. the old version of this from a decade (or more) ago was great too. it's amazing how fast one can type on this and not get tired like on mechanical kb. the charge lasts a long time too.

this has design issues
on July 27, 2024
Posted by: mjohns
Verified Purchase:Yes
this mouse may work with surface devices however the specs says it not a requirement & the support issues are there without resolution. however if you're like me and desire a "touch" enable mouse (basically a touch pad on the top surface of a mouse like that of apple's great mouse), this is the best i've seen .. just have to live with reconnecting this thing every time you want to use it. it's a pain but i'm so used to using a mac so...

a nice, fast little machine
on June 22, 2024
Posted by: mjohns
Verified Purchase:Yes
rear vent cutouts are a bit weak .. they need more structural rigidity. like the available usb-c charging and the availability of ports overall. small, lightweight, and no slowdowns or heat issues .. really no issues. main drawback is screen is a too dim for outdoors and resolution is on the low side if not making use of an external display .. graphics is a bit weak too. would i buy again and do i like/recommend it? yes, yes.

not that big of an upgrade
on November 11, 2022
Posted by: mjohns
Verified Purchase:Yes
volume control could be better implemented. sound is a bit better but feel in hand is cheaper.,sounds better if enclosed by hand (plastic seems thinner). nose canceling is better as is transparent mode. as always, integration with other apple products is the big selling factor.

perfect install
on June 18, 2021
Posted by: mjohns
Verified Purchase:Yes
this went on without a single imperfection, no bubbles. looks perfectly clear so not too sure of the "blue light" thing. the only negative is that it is case friendly sized while i prefer edge-to-edge, full sized. the finger-feel is smooth and the touch response is as if it's not there.

cable with attached power brick
on May 31, 2021
Posted by: mjohns
Verified Purchase:Yes
was thinking this was two parts but it's just a single piece with the power brick permanently attached. otherwise, it's a long cable for the camera and works as expected. For the price, should have a come with some cable guides. way overpriced.

Ensure clear recording of road incidents with this Thinkware Quad HD dash camera. Wi-Fi connectivity enables downloading and sharing of recorded footage with a smartphone, and Super Night Vision 2.0 technology provides optimal brightness for low-light scenes. This Thinkware Quad HD dash camera comes with a hardwiring kit for parking surveillance purposes and a 32GB microSD card for video storage.
 

Does BestBuy stock the Thinkware hardwiring cable for the Q800? I had BestBuy hardwire the F800 into my truck with the Thinkware hardwiring cable TWA-SH. That cable should also work with the Q800, but I can't find it or an alternative on the website.

I've never seen the cable at BestBuy. At BestBuy, my Q800 came with both the hardwire cable plus the 12v accessory cable in the box. The F800 and Q800 do share the same cable. It's also available at blackboxmycar website as well as the thinkware website.
