I am heavily invested in a smart home. I have two Arlo cameras, smart garage door, smart lights, Nest Protect, Nest Thermostat, Google Home, etc. The Arlo is nice for security, but it is limited.. You get a 10 second clip when it detects motion and it can turn on (very) loud alarm. But I wanted home security that was a little more fool proof, or maybe a bit more comprehensive.
Simplisafe is a well known product, if you've listened to any podcast in the last 5 years, you've heard about it. It is designed to be plug and play. For the most part, it is exactly that. In terms of ease of installation, it really doesn't get any easier. You pull the tabs to hook up the battery connection for all of your devices, and use the included adhesive tabs to secure the items where they need to go.
For the money, you get a lot. You get six door sensors, two motion detectors, keypad, base, and keyfob. You also get some stickers and yard signs to deter potential thiefs. While it's a good deal, keep in mind that you will need to purchase additional items (more than likely) if you want comprehensive coverage. The entryway/window/door sensors should go on every outside door and window. I have a small house and have 3 doors that need coverage and 11 windows. So there's an additional investment. It's better to know how many additional accessories you need when purchasing the bundle so you are prepared to install everything at once on day one.
Back to set up. It's pretty straightforward and the setup guide does a great job walking you through it. I put all of the sensors in place and then took the keypad around with me to setup each device. It didn't take much time at all. I've read online (not from Simplisafe) that you should hide the base to prevent thiefs from breaking in and smashing the base which sends the signal to the police. I heeded this advice and put the base in a corner. While the keypad seems like the brains, it's actually the base, which communicates with all of the devices and connects to the internet via WiFi and cell signal.
While it is easy to setup, MY BIG COMPLAINT is lack of home integration (I don't think Nest Thermostat really counts). That includes app control. I'm not quite ready to invest monthly on a subscription service of coverage. That means, I essentially have a "dumb" but capable loud speaker when someone tries to break in. I decided that for now, that was all I needed to deter thiefs. But see, that means I don't have access to the app controls. I hear the app is basic anyways, but I would like to see some Google integration. I cannot really comment on the service it provides. I can assume it is capable, but again, I'm not yet willing to invest. When I go on vacation next, I will likely bite the bullet to make myself feel better.
I want to make one more comment about connected home and systems. Simplisafe can be pretty comprehensive. If you're just now getting into the smart home foray, you could purchase all Simplisafe devices (from cameras, smoke detectors, to water leak detectors). That is an intriguing option to me. The problem, this is just for me, is that I am already heavily invested in a smart home with other devices that don't necessarily play nice with Simplisafe. It doesn't mean Simplisafe isn't a worthy product, it's just for me, I find it difficult to invest in their cameras (which I would presume work well within their ecosystem) because I already have Arlo cameras. And lastly, I made a big deal about Google Home integration, this is only a small complaint. I really wish I could self monitor and receive text or app alerts on my phone without a subscription. Having that ability would work well within my smart home ecosystem.
At the end of the day, you just need to think about the smart home you have now (if any) and how this fits within that system. If that's not a concern and ALL you want is a security system with monitoring services, this would be a fantastic choice.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I ordered this online without seeing it in person and I was a little disappointed by how large it was, but the quality and ease of use more than made me forget about it's size. I use it for conference calls over video conferencing apps and it does an amazing job. Best of all, it's literally plug and play. If you need a USB microphone that is not only a great price, but great quality, this is the one

This is an awesome webcam. Great picture and sound quality. I don't use the included software to live stream (I use it for traditional video chat services). It is super easy to set up, literally plug in play. I like the included tripod as it is the perfect height to sit on a table when recording someone other than yourself

We use projectors at work a lot for mediation presentations. We show a variety of information, from PowerPoints, to PDFs, to videos all in the same presentation. Sometimes these are in our office, but often we take our equipment elsewhere. We were using a large projector and that was bulky and heavy. The first thing I noticed about this Epson projector was the weight (very light) and the fact that it comes with a carrying bag. I would have taken it without the bag, but man is it convenient for travel. NOTE: the bag doesn't offer a great deal of protection, so don't throw it around.
In addition to the bag, you also get a VGA cable, power cable, USB cable and remote. Missing is an HDMI cable, but luckily they're pretty ubiquitous nowadays so you likely have an extra laying around.
Set up is pretty simple. There aren't too many ports in the back, simple composite inputs (red yellow and white plugs), HDMI, VGA, USB A and B, and power input. Simple plug the power in, tap the power button twice and off you go.
This projector is advertised as 720p, but that's with a VGA cable. Using a HDMI cable gets you 1080p picture. I plug the HDMI cable from the projector directly into my computer.
Once the computer is plugged in and the power is on, it's time to adjust the picture. The zoom on the lens (or throw) is pretty good. The picture can extend out to 320 inches which is pretty large.I doubt you'll need anything that big, but it's nice to have. The picture is EXTREMELY bright and colorful. When I plugged my computer in, the desktop really popped.I was very impressed. I ran through some documents and videos and it was gorgeous. No complaints on that front. As with ANY projector, you'll want an alternative source for sound. While it's nice to have a speaker built in, in case you ever forget speakers, you don't want to use it unless you absolutely have to.
One thing I noticed though, this thing was loud and got really hot. When playing videos you can't hear the projector, but when showing still pictures in a quiet room, I found it to be distracting. Obviously all projectors make some noise, but this seemed a little too loud for me. Not a deal breaker since you get over the noise, but it was a little concerning at first.
This projector has additional features, which on paper sound good, but are lacking in execution. You can project images directly from your phone or computer. But there are a lot of hoops to jump through. It's not as simple as casting a screen on Chromecast or Mirroring on AppleTV. On my Android phone I had to download the Epson Projection app, then scan a QR code. But then it wouldn't work. After a number of tries it finally worked. From there, you have to control what you want to project through the app. So if you want to project a document fromyour phone, or picture, you have to navigate to it from your phone. There was a way to straight mirror your phone, but it was difficult to find and hard to explain. I hit a button and then a prompt showed up on my phone saying the whole screen would be mirrored. I watched a movie and scrolled through my phone, and while it worked admirably when I got it working, it was a hassle. And I don't want an additional app on my phone.
Projecting directly to the projector from a computer was even worse. I had to navigate the network settings on the projector, learned that you needed to turn the password off (the projector essentially creates an unsecured WiFi network) and then I could connect. Oh, I forgot that you have to download an extension on your Chrome browser, download Epson Projection software, and enter in the IP address of the projector (which you have to find on the projection settings). Yeah, it was a pain. When it does work, I'm left connected to the projector with no internet. So your stuck with what's stored locally on your computer and the picture was very grainy.
When connecting to your phone and computer, I was able to stream both screens to the projector at once, but I personally can't come up with a time when I would need that functionality. All in all, the networking features simply weren't worth the hassle.
At the end of the day, you have a light travel friendly projector that can produce a large, bright and colorful picture, which is an absolutely necessity for anyone needing projector. While the network features were blah (even though they sound cool) what really matters is the picture quality. Just remember it runs loud.

Bluetooth speakers are a dime a dozen and it's hard to stand out in a crowded field. In my opinion, most speakers have similar sound quality (in the midtier to upper level market, I can't speak for the cheap, non-name brand speakers). What I look for is loudness, battery life, battery life and durability. This speaker nails it on those and offers a little bit more.
The build quality is classic Sony. It is great. It is hefty but not too heavy. The fabric on the outside is tight (as in it doesn't slide around) and is very durable. You get anything on it, you can wipe it off. The sound quality is good, nice highs and lows. I'm no audiophile but the average joe will be very satisfied with the sound quality.
It claims to have extra bass, but I don't notice much extra bass. Don't get me wrong, I like the lows this speaker offers, but I don't hear any major emphasis on the bass. Maybe someone else will notice, but I don't.
The speaker is plenty loud. In fact, at top volume it gets too loud, which you can't say about a lot of speakers. I had about 8 people over with the speaker playing in a distant corner of the room and it was on about 70% volume and that still seemed too loud to hear over everyone's conversations. I took it outside on the porch and i was amazed how far the sound traveled. I can confidently say that the volume of this speaker (keep in mind there's a bigger model) will handle most situations. Small parties, small outdoor venues, you name it.
I don't generally take my speakers out in the wilderness, or in the rain, but I do occasionally take them to the pool or hot tub. I took this to the hot tub and while I can't say tested it, it wasn't bothered by the cold weather and moisture in the air. Sony claims it can handle dust and water splashes. I have to take that at face value. I don't really intend on putting it through any crazy rigors
What makes this speaker stand a part is the battery life and lights. First, the battery life. It is advertised at 24 hours. While I haven't played it for 24 hours straight, I charged it completely, and listened to it for a week with the lights on and at about a 50% level and it never died. Now I wished it had a battery level indicator on the speaker, but it took a week before it finally clonked out. That was with the lights on.
The other feature I really appreciated but never thought I would, was the party lights. Look, that didn't appeal to me too much, but I find myself liking them more and more. No you won't be staring at the speaker and no it shouldn't be the only reason you buy any speaker, but it is kinda cool. The lights go to the beat for the most part and aren't too overbearing. It's a nice little addition that I think sets the mood of the party. Best of all, you can turn it off.
The speaker has the ability to charge your phone via USB, I never used that, but it is a nice feature if you get to the pool (or wherever) and need to juice up your phone.
All in all, given the sound quality and battery life alone I highly recommend this speaker. You can get similar audio quality in most other speakers in this price range, but you are getting party lights and durability that aren't standard in most speakers, which in my opinion sets it apart from the crowd.

I've been looking for the perfect pair of workout headphones, and while these aren't perfect, they are IMO close.
They look like thicker black Apple Airpods with cord connecting the two. That's not really a bad thing. The tube shape design makes them easy to grab and the rubber tips have a nice textured feel that hold them in your ear. And they're really light
In terms of fit, I think these are great. They come with medium tips and small tips (no large). I made due with the medium tips. At first they don't feel secure, it's a tough feeling to describe, but the never once came out during my 10 mile runs. I think this is in large part due to the lightness of the headphones and the textured tips. They are so light you almost forget your wearing them.
The bad part though, the buttons are small and hard to touch by feel. If you're the type that ALWAYS changes songs or volume on the headphones themselves, I might give these pause. The fast forward and rewind button is difficult to locate by touch, the raised indention of the symbols are easy to miss. Luckily, the power button is on the end at the bottom of the "black tube" and you can't miss that. I tend to adjust songs and volume on my phone so this is not an issue to me.
In terms of sound quality, in typical Sony fashion they're great. The music is tight and responsive. The bass isn't too overwhelming. You can get more bass if you get a tighter seal in your ear, but I can only accomplish this by holding the ear piece into my ear, which for obvious reasons isn't doable. NOTE this last comment does not affect their fit nor the ability to stay in my ear. I never felt like these are going to fall out.
In terms of phone quality, I received one call during a workout and they worked great. As for connection, i have NOT ONCE had the signal break up or skip. I cannot say this for other sport headphones. This is the biggest endorsement of these headphones.
The few knocks are typical knocks of other small headphones. They use micro-USB. Most of my devices now use USB-C. Not a deal breaker. They don't have a case. Bose does it right when they include carrying bags for their headphones. Their sport headphones have a nice, small neoprene bag with carbaniner hook that is extremely convenient. These headphones do not. They come with a nifty little piece of plastic that allows you to wrap the cord around the headphones, but this makes them even smaller and easier to lose and I've simply resigned myself to the fact that I will lose this piece of plastic (see the photos).
Battery life is good, but there's no battery announcement when turning them on. For example, when you turn any BT Bose headphones on, they announced the battery percentage. This is an overlooked feature that should be required in any high quality headphones. Having said that, I generally charge mine once a week and I have yet to lose power in the middle of a work out.
But these minor quirks are absolutely no deal breakers. These are great sounding headphones, that stay in your ear. The battery life is quite good (although only way to check power level is on your phone). They're small and prone to losing, but you can say that for ANY small workout BT headphones. These are a great buy

Like most Amazon products, this is easy to setup and use. I prefer the UI over AppleTV, but that's personal preference. What makes the biggest difference is App selection. The gap is narrowing now that AppleTV has Prime Video now, but Amazon still has the better selection of apps. But honestly, you can't go wrong. If you're heavily invested in Amazon (Prime membership) I think this is the best option especially taking into account the price. But Apple TV isn't a bad choice either (and Google doesn't have dedicated remote that still bothers me).

I bought this for my wife and she absolutely loves it. It is sturdy and durable. It's just the right size in my opinion. But two big knocks, the outlet to plug it in is huge and it is pricey. It's nice to have, but not sure worth $100. Not saying I have buyer's remorse, but I am wondering if I shouldn't have looked around a little more....

Look, GoPro Karma is a great value (no matter what you think about the drone) given the inclusion of the grip and the camera itself. So it's a little bit of a bummer to spend $100 on a battery, but it's worth it, almost necessary. 18 minutes its not long flying a drone on one battery!

Meet the unrivaled, everyday noise canceling headphone for people who want to keep it simple. Hesh ANC is engineered with just the right amount of added features to make your life a little easier without a lot of additional technology that you might not need.
 

Do these headphones have a mute button and how long is the battery life if using for office calls?

I don't think there's a dedicated "mute" button on the headphones, I didn't find one, so it will need to be controlled from your phone. I never measured battery life for calls, but I've used them for calls (they sound good) and listened to hours of music over the course of a couple of weeks (of and on, not every single day) before having to recharge them. I feel pretty confident you could go a full day of calls without the battery dying.

Yes it prints immediately. I believe, but am not 100% certain, that if you have a microSD card inserted, it will save a digital copy of the picture you take (and print)

is there a storage container for the blades with this one or separate?

Unfortunately, there's no storage for the attachments which is a bummer. Obviously there's space in the container for one (where I keep the sharp chopping attachment) and I keep the shredding/slicing disc in a cardboard container that it came with for the packaging.

 Smart Light Starter Kit with Google Assistant
Smart Light Starter Kit with Google Assistant
Use the Google Smart Light Starter Kit to control the lights using just your voice. Set up in a snap: just plug in Google Home Mini, screw in the GE C-Life smart light bulb, and download the Google Home app to get started. Then just say "Hey Google" to dim, brighten, turn on and turn off the lights."
 

Can I use this to turn off my lights while I am away from home? Also, do I get the starter kit and then multiple bulbs or do I need to get a box thing for each room? Thanks so much

Yes, you can turn off your lights from your phone (via Google Home app) when you are away from home. You don't need this starter kit per room unless you want multiple Google Home minis throughout your home (I have several) but obviously the number of smart bulbs (should you want them) will outweigh the number of Google Home minis you need. In other words, one Google Home mini could control all of the smart bulbs you have in your house. You would just need to be within earshot of that one mini when asking Google to turn lights on and off. For me, I keep one Google Home on each floor of my house

Yes, I put it in my 2012 Macbook Pro without any issues. Substantially improved the performance

Does this ssd works on MacBook Pro

Yes, I installed it in my 2012 Macbook Pro. I would find a SATA cable, plug it in to your Macbook and clone your existing HDD, use a small Phllips Head screw driver to remove the bottom plate, unscrew the mounting bracket, insert the pegs from your old HDD to the new SSD using a torx screw (very small) and put the plate back on and that's it. Very simple and painless process

Does it rotate or move?

The base itself doesn't rotate as it is secured to wherever you put it, but the end of the mount (where the screw thread is located) swivels 360 degrees adding a lot flexibility to your placement options.

Does this remote work with Xbox one?

Yes, sort of, depending on what your asking. The remote itself doesn't control anything but commands to the Logitech Home. But yes, the Logitech Home does turn on my Xbox One S. I've controlled a Blu-Ray before but must admit I haven't tried to navigate the console menu.
