This is my first ND filter but it works exactly as it should to capture pictures when the light may not be on your side. Fits perfectly, screws on easily and the material its edges are made of is easy to grip, less likely to drop it.

I wanted a smaller, lighter tripod to hike with but most on the market can't hold the weight of the body of a DSLR safely, let alone the added weight of lenses. This tripod is both sturdy and flexible as far as what angles you need it to support your camera at. All adjustments can be tightened down as well. It weighs very little as well so if you are looking for something similar to what I was, this is it. Even if you just want something more compact and lightweight and have a dslr, or any other camera, this is a great tripod to use.

Bought this item to determine if the garage door is open or shut (note it doesn't have the ability to close or open the door, just reports the status). These sensors don't eat battery life, report the temperature and are consistent in what they report.

Just like the rest of the sonos speakers, this one is fantastic! I haven't used a Play:3 yet but compared to my soundbar and Play:1 this sounds even more crisp, but definitely has more bass to it. If you are looking for a speaker for a living room or entertaining area that has phenomenal sound quality with just enough bass to feel but not overpower the words or treble, this is what you are looking for.

This kit is the perfect starting kit to begin automating your home. You get a hub, a motion sensor, an outlet and 2 regular sensors in the kit. The instructions are simple to follow for installation and setup. The app took a bit of time to find where everything is but it has everything you would need. You can quickly connect devices to your hub and the app can see them instantly once they connect, and if you are interested in purchasing more devices you can see what the hub is compatible with for every type of device. You can set rules that flawlessly work, and run them manually, at a set time or once an action occurs, like you return home from work. I have an echo dot and I use Alexa to turn the light on and off that's plugged into the outlet. You can use the Smart Home monitor in the app to arm your house whether you are home or away and receive alerts when a sensor is triggered if they are on doors or windows. I would highly recommend the Samsung hub to anyone wanting to have any amount of home automation.

Placed this speaker in our family room next to the kitchen. Sound quality seems even better than the playbar for just playing music. The speaker also gets very loud while retaining quality. The sonos app is well designed and spotify lets you select the speaker from the spotify app now. Grouping this speaker with our existing speaker works flawlessly. Both speakers are completely in sync and sound great together.

Sonos - Play:5 Wireless Speaker - Black Matte

I understand that Sonos operates on 2.4 GHz router. Is there a work around to operate on 5 GHz?

Not that I was able to determine about a year ago when we hooked up our router. We have a dual band, one being the 5GHz which we originally setup to use with the speakers and realized that wasn't going to work so its been on the 2.4GHz with no issues.

Samsung - SmartThings Home Monitoring Kit - White

Can this system pair with Samsung Smart camera SNH-E6413N?

It shows that it is compatible with the Samsung SmartCam HD Pro in the list of compatible devices within the Marketplace on the app. I'm not sure of the specific model number though. Pretty much all of the Samsung Smart devices are designed to be able to connect to the SmartThings hub.

Samsung - SmartThings Home Monitoring Kit - White

Can the system pair with nest and is it available in canada

I don't see that the Nest is a compatible device by looking in the marketplace inside the Samsung SmartThings app but there are 12 other options for thermostats. Honeywell has quite a few that are good rivals to the Nest and most if not all are compatible with this. I am not sure if it is available in Canada though, I'm from the US.
