This was a gift for my older sons. They do not like using a razor blade and this was a good alternative. The OneBlade does a good job and gives a nice close shave as well. I may have to buy another for myself.

This is a nice piece of insurance for your very expensive phone. It's not 100% guaranteed, but it will keep your minor accidents from becoming major ones that can ruin your phone.

Great movie! This was a purchase for an older kid that gave them great memories when they were young. Even better than before, now that it is on Blu-Ray. I only wish it came with the digital copy too.

My son did all the research and picked these, but I was really amazed when I listened to them myself. The sound was clear, the bass was amazing and the outside noise was completely blocked out. I had him turn it down because I was concerned about his hearing. But even turned down low you can't hear someone talking to you that is 2 feet away.

I have a friend that bought this before I bought my own, because he said it would pay for itself. He was right. The scheduling feature is a must to use, but the fact that I can view and change the temperature anytime from anywhere is great. This makes you more aware of how much your A/C and Heating unit is running, and that alone will save you money. The fact that the app is free and this runs on wi-fi is a perk! I hooked mine up to my heat-pump in an hour. Because I am cautious it took longer, since I went to the website to make sure I knew where all the wires went. This video is also a good resource for wiring... https://youtu.be/zFwGq-hmglw?t=20s

This is one of many Roblox game cards I have purchased as gifts. Roblox is free to play, but some items and gear need credits to buy. You also have varying levels of play, where you can design your own game. My kids have been playing on Roblox for 5+ years.

The League of Legends game card is an easy to give gift for any older kid. The game is a little technical for younger kids, but kids 13 and up are good. I've bought this for an older kid for the second year now.

I found a great deal on this TV and Bestbuy price matched their competitor, so I went and bought two of them. It was a good deal and they are great TVs. Lots of great apps and features and a really sharp picture.

The ASUS USB Monitor is so easy to use, it really is just as simple as plugging it in and it works. The picture quality actually looks better than the Dell laptop it is plugged into. You will have to adjust the brightness controls on both the USB monitor (using the control on the left-side) and your laptop (using the function + brightness keys) to make them look similar. Don't bother trying to adjust the screens in your Windows or Invidia screen resolution control panel, you'll make things worse.

Protect children's ears with these Insignia kids' headphones. Their volume-limiting function keeps decibel levels in a healthy range to preserve young eardrums, and the 40mm drivers deliver crisp, high-quality sound for enjoyable listening. The share port built into these Insignia kids' headphones lets listeners share music with friends to increase the fun.
 

What age group this headphone fits?

People have different size heads. The average pizza eating 12 year old and up should fit just fine. Younger kids would be a concern with them falling off to easily.

Can you put 2 of these thermostats on one wifi system to control 2 different A/C's. Will they work independently.

Yes. Each has a different MAC address, just like your computer, tablet, phone and other devices. It will also help if you give them different names during the wifi setup process. (like... Front Room / Back Room, or Living Room / Family Room)

Will it automaticly change from heat to emergency heat

If your current unit has wires for emergency heat, then yes. There is also a difference between manual and automatic emergency heat. They are two different wires, but either way they will go in the same spot on the new controller.

Use google chrome cast as HD set top box

I am going to buy a smart HD TV . Can the google chrome cast be used as HD set top box? Is it a good substitute for HD set top boxes rented out by cable companies?
Thanks
This does not replace your cable set top box. Not all cable channels have an app to display their content, and sometimes not very well if they do. And if you have a Smart TV it probably has the same apps as chromecast already.

You answered yes to the question " can this device put Netflix from my laptop to the TV. Will the picture fill the screen on my large TV?

Yes, as long as your TV can handle wide screen HD or SD. I believe you will still need the Googlecast extension app for the chrome browser as well if you are not casting from a phone or tablet.
