This is my second Epson projector as it replaced a 5030ub. It cannot be overstated that this line of projectors is unmatched for multi use viewing. Ours is hung in a game room with two sets of windows and even with all of the lights on you can still see the screen clearly. So if you don't have a dedicated movie room this is your projector. Amazing colors in total darkness as well. Sports are fantastic. Movies are engulfing. Just buy it and thank me later.

Unexpected replacement as the Whirlpool we had was just over 2 years old and just quit. This unit replaced it. Upgrade from what we had for sure. Very pleased with how quiet the unit operates. Great fit and finish. Zero complaints. Setup and install were a breeze.
Best Buy matched Home Depot price and delivery was 2 weeks faster to our home. No brainer!

Roku is very easy to navigate. Only complaint is both the remote and app change my tv input the first time you hit a button and that is probably a tv issue.
Otherwise solid streaming device. Setup and ease of use are superb. Price point is exceptional for the quality in return.

Got these to replace a Beats Powerbeats 2 headset that while it sounded great in a quiet room once you did anything outside the music was drowned in ambient noise. The bose earpieces seal out ambient noise very well. I can mow and run outdoor power equipment and still be able to hear my music very well.

Wahl Lithium Ion complete hair cutting kit. Powered by Lithium Ion technology, this clipper outperforms standard Wahl® rechargeable clippers by providing up to two times the run time, clocking in at one hour and forty minutes on a full charge. This eliminates the need for frequent recharging, and provides a versatile solution for people that prefer to cut hair outside in locations such as the garage or patio. The clipper has a charging indicator light. This Lithium Ion technology offers a 15 minute quick charge and the ability to hold a charge for up to one year. The kit also includes a full size battery operated detail trimmer (uses 2 AA batteries - not included in kit). The trimmer is great for cleaning up necklines, sideburns and trimming around the ears. The kit also includes 12 guide combs for a smooth and even haircut. There is a BONUS guide comb storage case for your convenience.
 
Excellent trimmer kit. Great battery life

Second purchase. The previous unit was flawless for nearly 7 years although it was getting somewhat dull. It was dropped on our tile floor and broke the head. When I calculated new blades, guard and internals it was cheaper to get a new combo. Same results with this one. It gets used weekly and I may charge it once a quarter at most. Probably closer to every 6 months. Blades are sharp. Quality is excellent.

Need a classroom projector to use with a Smartboard and also show movies on big wall screen . Any suggestions?

Epson models around $500 are perfect for this. Too bright for home theater but work great for presentations and movies thrown on the wall.

How do you submit a rebate request for Epson 5030 bought from best buy. There isn't anything on my receipts

My rebate was through Epson direct. I don't recall seeing any BestBuy rebates on Epson projectors. I think Epson controls pricing floors very strictly and any rebates are done in house. Might check with them.
Fwiw my rebate from them included a free replacement bulb and both the check and the bulb arrived in a couple of weeks after I submitted my paperwork. I was shocked it was processed and returned so quickly.

Less dropped wireless signals

I can only get 1.5 mbps from CenturyLink at our house (I can't seem to get an answer from CL why this is so). I have the combination modem/router from CL. Using my laptop wirelessly in another part of the house, my connection seems to be turned off and on erratically. Buffering is very slow and frequent when I watch movies. Will this router improve my internet situation?
Short answer: Absolutely!!
Like anything in life that comes in a combo your modem/router combo is really good on the modem side and totally sucks on the router side. Get the NetGear router and make sure to have your current router turned off so they aren't interfering. I'm certain you will no longer have any connection issues. For years I fought this with ATT combo modem/routers and constantly had weak signal issues as well as printer connectivity issues. Finally a technician for HP recommended a third party router and since that day no more issues. That was 2010 fwiw. My current home has 24 connected devices to the NetGear Nighthawk and it performs flawlessly. Of the 24 I have an iMac, 2 matchbook pros, 2 iPads, 3 iPhones, 2 printers, 5 directv boxes, a ps3 and several smart tv's connected to it. I'm certain I have left out some but you get the idea. :)

How about DSL

does anyone know how the Nighthawk R8000 on DSL
I can tell you it works fantastically on both UVerse Max Turbo 24mb and HughesNet which is probably slower than your DSL. Coverage area is best on the market for signal strength. You can always got to a cat6 cable from the modem to your router as this can potentially be a choke point for data transfer.

Earlier Version

We have this remote which we bought around 5 years ago. It is glitchy and does not work well to say the least. Looking on all the websites, it seems that this remote is one of the best universals out there. Has anyone had an earlier version of this model and noticed improvements with this one? Could we have just gotten a lemon? I am hesitant to buy the same model since we have had so much trouble with our current one. Thanks!
Definitely return it. I have two of these and they work flawlessly. For the price I can't imagine why anyone would pay more to do the same things.
Could possibly be the setup if you didn't fully complete each method.
The website to setup can be a bit slow to load but once it loads it works pretty quickly through the steps.

are there projectors that do not need a computer?

While many speakers have a PowerPoint presentation, either on disc or flash drive, sometimes a speaker has a disc or flash drive made on some other program. Do projectors exist with built-in software independent of computer?
Yes. Most presentation style projectors have a usb drive where files can be displayed. You can toggle through the slides using the remote for the projector. Epson makes a great one for around $400 that I use weekly for presentations. Epson VS330 is the model.

How do I set up my cox cable box so I can watch it through my projector?

Is your cox cable box hd? If so run the Hdmi cable that would go to your tv to your projector. If you have a receiver run the Hdmi cable there and then the out Hdmi cable to your projector. Sound is your only variable.
