I wanted the three pack camera system but my local Best Buy didn't have it so I bought the two pack and added one. Had to pay extra $10 this way but it's what I wanted. The plus is I got extra charge cable so maybe that's worth the $10

High quality door bell. Image quality is outstanding! Interchangeable faceplates to match your decor. This comes with everything you need to install it with. Screwdriver, drill bit. I love knowing if someone is at my door while I'm away. They don't even have to ring the bell for me to get the notification that they're there. I'll recommend if you have $250 to spend on a door bell.

These are pretty good cameras, the fact that they are wireless is a plus. Set up was easy, I just wish they were 1080 for the price. I noticed that there is about a 10-15 lag between live and what you see on your phone / pc. This makes fine tuning the angle a bit tedious. Of course this could be my internet speed. I don't know. I will recommend these to anyone wanting simple install with good camera picture. If your more about high quality image I'd go for hard wired with 1080. Or wait and see if Arlo comes out with another upgraded version of 1080

Like many of you, I hate paying for aux cords since they all fail sooner or later, my opinion, they should be free! I plan to leave this plugged in to echo dot and JBL speaker. Hopefully it'll last forever. My experience though they never do. I'm gonna recommend because we all need them. The fact that it's a flat cable and not round may restrict its movement at the plug better. I'm not sure. Time will tell if this is just as junkie as the rest or if it stands above.

Ok so I went on a echo buying frenzy! Two dots, echo, and the show. All linked together but in separate rooms. They make great intercoms via drop in. Buy a couple of these just for that. You won't be disappointed.

With this you can make calls to other echo shows. Or using the app you can call others that have the a show. I haven't used this feature yet since I'm the only one I know who has one. I can tell you that while using the app at home or away from home off the network you can call the show. I did this while at work to check it out and caught my son coming in the back door. I freaked him out but after he settled down we chatted via video chat for awhile and both agreed it was awesome! You could also just drop into the show from the app to check on the house or whatever, wherever you have it. Keep in mind you're only gonna see what it's pointed at. The camera doesn't move. Plus in its natural form it is tilted back slightly so it point upward. There are stands on amazon the correct the tilt to make it straight up and down. Almost forgot but the speakers are amazing! You can link multiple echos together to play music. I have the show in my living room an echo in my bedroom and the dot connected to a JBL speaker in another room. After set up through the app I can tell Alexa to play music and they all come to life.

All the great things Alexa normally does but with a screen. I bought this along with the echo and a couple echo dots. With the Alexa app or another echo device you can drop in and use as intercom, but with the show you can have video. I dropped into this while at work on my phone with the Alexa app and surprised my son who was there. Was pretty cool. No need to answer it connects right up. Good to use to check up on the house while you're away. I just wish the camera would move around.

Control your life with the Amazon Echo. It started with a music player that could play anything from Prime Music to Spotify and Pandora, and it gives you hands-free convenience, yet it can now control lights, switches and thermostat and answer questions thanks to advanced voice recognition. Use the Amazon Echo to order an Uber or even pizza from Domino's.

 PowerA - Dual Charging Station for Xbox - Black
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.
 

Do these have only black back plates that replace the original ones, or do they also include a set of white ones? I have one black and one white controller, and I don't want the white one to lose its sleekness by having a black plate :P

Just black.

We live in a quiet neighborhood... can you set up this projector for Bluetooth to run speakers and/or headsets?

Depends on your setup. I have mine hooked to a mac and that's hooked to a JBL sound bar via Bluetooth. But the projector itself is not Bluetooth. If you had a long 3.5mm cable you can hook directly in the back for headphones I suppose.

Can you run a sound bar through the HDMI2 port for extra sound?

I'm not sure but I have a JBL sound bar hooked to mine through the jack in the back for sound from Xbox. I use the Bluetooth on JBL to pair to my mac. So there are some options for you. Both mac and Xbox are hooked to projector.

How easy is it to take the speaker on/off the mount?

I want to use this on my covered/screened patio, but I want to also be able to take it on and off pretty quickly, how easy is it to remove and replace? Will I need to tighten and unscrew each time?
Not easy. They are intended for permanent mount.
