Ignore this review. I haven't watched the film yet and am just reviewing it because BB bugged me too. I like Amy Adams and she got nominated for an Oscar for the role, so it can't be bad. And I like intriguing SciFi films, so I bought it when in the store.

Enjoy stability on the go with these GoPro ABQRT-002 tripod mounts, which are compatible with most GoPro cameras and most standard tripods, so you can get the ideal shot. The included mini tripod provides a lightweight foundation you can carry with you.
Plastic, not metal
Customer Rating
3.0
It's not outrageously priced for a GoPro branded accessory, but there are better and cheaper ones online. It's all plastic, which isn't too bad given the frame on the go pro is plastic as well. It's lights and works, so can't ask for much more. Time will tell on how it holds up.
The little tripod is interesting. It's really small, for tabletop use. Not sure how well it would do in a stiff breeze.

More expensive than 3rd party - but good quality

Sometimes you are willing to pay a little more for something knowing it's good quality. That's the case here. You can cheaper ones online, but I wanted it now and the price wasn't way out of line. It works well with the hero 5 black. It's comfortable to hold. Can't comment on floating ability yet, but I have no reason to doubt GoPro.

Good, not great marvel film
Customer Rating
4.0
There are better marvel adaptations out there, but this does a good job of introducing the character. It's a little slow at times for a marvel flick, but moves better at the end. I'm not all that familiar with the character from the comics to say how faithful it is, but it's a good watch either way.

You can find cheaper ones, but I found this as an open box and needed it for work so picked it up. It works well and is well built. Can't say much more about it.

PowerA - Dual Charging Station for Xbox - Black
Officially licensed by Xbox, the Xbox One Charging Station eliminates the cost of replacement batteries. Keep your Xbox One wireless controllers* fully-charged and ready to game! Controller battery level is indicated on the screen, so there's no need to take your eyes off the action. Each Charging Station includes 2 charge-through battery doors and 2 rechargeable battery packs equipped with hours of gameplay. To charge, simply click controller down on the Charging Station and view LED light bars indicating charge level. When fully charged, click up to store. Focus on the game and not on the charge.
Does what it is supposed to
Customer Rating

Battery life seems pretty good, so no complaints there. The battery does are black, so if you have other color controllers, they won't match (if you care). Getting them seated to charge can be finicky, but the charging orators are nice. I'm not sure of the point in the spring loaded part, seems pointless to me as they only charge when in the down position.
Good price for the charger and batteries, before cheaper than OEM.

Haven't put much time in, but so far it's been fun. The wife and mother it in local co-op mode, which was a big plus as most Xbox games are single player locally.
Ga!E play and action is good. The buttons can be a little complex at first depending on what you are coming from.

Logitech - M557 Bluetooth Mouse - Dark Gray
Manage your computer or tablet with this Logitech M557 910-003971 Bluetooth mouse that features a 4-way scrolling tilt wheel that offers precise control. The customizable 3-button design presents the opportunity for navigation of multiple interfaces.

Customer Rating

Bought this as I didn't want tonnage to deal with the little receiver and breaking or losing it. So far it's worked very well with a Win10 Lenovo X1 Yoga. I can't comment on the battery life, but it's a month and going strong and I don't turn it off overnight or the weekends when I leave it at work. It's on the small side, so it you like big mice this isn't for you. But buttons and scroll wheel work well and it tracks well for a business mouse.

If you get this on sale, that is. It's more than capable of capturing FHD video. It may not be that good for 4k, depending on the bandwidth that the device writes at. Check the specs of your device and look for some sites online that review the actual speeds of various memory cards to be sure.
I trust SanDisk, especially when you get them from a reputable source like BB.

I own 2 of these remotes. The small simple remote works well and is very configurable. The ability to control it with a smart devices usage said great as well. If I had anissue, it would be the limit on devices. I'm not sure why they do that, and it's not likely to affect most users, butifyouhave a complex HT setup, it's worth noting. they are still pushing out updates for this year's after it came out, which is nice.

Are you limited in the app on how many devices can be programmed. I don't plan to use the remote, I want to use this with Amazon Echo instead. Seams like it should have unlimited if you don't have to worry about how many programmable remote buttons.

Tv has digital audio out and RCA left and right out .How do I convert to Optical
Is there a converter that can be used to connect digital audio out jack on the tv , to the optical cable that goes to the sound bar? Thank You
Check Monoprice, they might have an Analog to Digital Converter that might do this. I have one that does the opposite (optical to analog stereo that works well).

ecobee ecobee3 Programmable Touch-Screen Wi-Fi Thermostat: Maintain a comfortable home with this programmable thermostat, which is Apple® HomeKit-enabled, so you can control the temperature remotely using your compatible device. Home IQ helps you conserve energy.
Can the ecoe 3 be used with gas system to heat water?
I use a sun heater system for the bath. When the sunlight is out for many days, I need to turn on the gas system manually. Can the ECOBEE 3 detect the temperature of the water into the reservoir and turn on the gás system? Thanks.
I highly doubt it, but you can call ecobee support to verify. They are pretty helpful. As this is all based on room temp, I don't see how it would be able to trigger your water heater reliably (if at all).

how many watts is the subwoofer ??
whats the watts of the subwoofer ????
Per the LG website, it's rated at 200W. But I think that is an ideal number at maximum gain. It's a small woofer, so it's not going to reach the really deep lows if that is what you are looking for.

Direction book
I bought a open box from best buy. There was no manual with it. Is there somewhere on the net I can download a manual?
Yes, on the LG website. Just search for the product model number. And actually, the manual that came with it was just a quick setup guide, you have to go to the website to get anything more detailed. But I'll be honest, there isn't a lot to the manual on the website either. There just isn't a lot to be said about this unit, I guess.

We already have the TV (which is wall-mounted), but I don't want the soundbar if they won't play nice together.
Thanks!

As long as your TV has either an HDMI port with ARC (Audio Return Channel) or a digital optical output, then it will work with this. I'm using it with a 8 year old Panasonic plasma with no issues. I just have a digital optical cable from the TV to the soundbar and all the sources (blu-ray, fireTV, appleTV, etc.) are connected to the TV. You leave the sound bar on the Optical input and just change the inputs on the TV. It couldn't be easier.
If you have a newer TV that supports the HDMI control channel, then your TV remote can control the volume on the soundbar.
