The Velop mesh is quite easy to install and provides easy access to the internet over a large area. Installation took about 15 minutes including reading directions. The electrical base plug in modules provide an easy way to unobtrusively extend your Velop network.

Very speedy, great design structurally and ergonomically, crisp, fast, accurate display, nice keyboard, super battery life, light weight, low heat generation and with Windows 10 easy to use. Great sound is provided by Bang & Olufsen audio accompanied by low fan noise. It comes with a very nice, protective slip case (with stylus holder – a nice touch) and an HP two button stylus that I find ergonomically pleasing. For someone that travels a lot and has a reason to use both a tablet and a laptop this 2 in 1 is a very capable alternative to lugging both a laptop and a tablet around. The Intel graphics provide entry level gaming or video editing capabilities. This looks and feels like a quality computer and while very handsome it is not ostentatious.

The Delonghi 5-in-1 grill uses very slick and versatile ceramic-coated grill plates. It can be used as a contact grill, panini press or full grill when preparing a diverse range of grillable foods. It heats faster and gets hotter than my old grill. The grease drain containers are very functional. The grill is easy to use and to clean after use. I really like the ceramic grill plates and compact external dimensions. It looks great on my counter top. The construction looks, feels and seems almost indestructible.

The Omen Reactor mouse looks awesome, has a height-adjustable body to accommodate different hand sizes and provides great user ergonomics. It is visually appealing and is a great accompaniment to the Omen Sequencer keyboard. The thumb rest worked great for me. It has an aluminum armor clad USB cable that looks and feels indestructible and also has the same type of optical-mechanical switches as the Sequencer keyboard. Attention to detail is great.

The Omen Sequencer keyboard is truly well-constructed and designed for extensive use. In my opinion the Omen Sequencer keyboard has the nicest volume slider I have ever used. It is an optical-mechanical keyboard with individual switches like a mechanical keyboard and each key has its own optical laser that resets (0.2ms) as soon as you press it down. This is very fast by any standard. It has a great feel to it, and is solid and reliable. It is heavy and stays in place. It uses RGB color customization, has a phenomenal audio volume slider on the upper right and well positioned macro buttons on the left. Attention to detail is great.

This is my third drone and by far the best I have owned. The EVO weighs not quite (2 pounds) and includes a carrying case along with a 32 GB microSD card. The microSD card is protected by a hatch cover on the right side of the aircraft and is easy to get to. The EVO is very solid and well-made. Setup is simple.
If you live in the US I encourage you to use the smartphone app B4UFLY for rules and restrictions in the airspace.
The charger can charge both the drone and the controller batteries simultaneously. Flight Performance is good and helps in the video capture side of things. My battery life has been between 20-30 minutes. My radio range is about one mile in the city – needs to stay within eyesight based on current regulations. I really like the Anti-Collision System. Several warnings appear on the video feed as it approaches an obstacle and past a certain point it will refuse to move forward if you are on collision course. The image quality is quite good. The camera has a reasonable dynamic range and low-light sensitivity. If needed there are neutral density filters that can be purchased. The design of the controller is similar to many drone and video game controllers with a very nice feature - the controller can display the video without the need of a smartphone thereby reducing potential problems.

Elgato's Stream Deck Mini is a great tool for game streaming and so much more, including content streaming to the masses (or target audiences). It is helpful for every day navigation on your computer and works great with navigating photo and video creation apps along with other graphic applications. I have used many different macro systems over the years and find this 6-button marvel to be an amazing time saver. Using 6 buttons in a hierarchal manner results in frequent one touch implementations to complex keystroke combinations.
The design and construction are very well thought out with software to match. It works great and looks great. I really like the LCD keys that can be programmed with your own icons or by using any of the many icons included with the streamer. They are easy to see in all conditions that I have used my computer in. The deck with its grippy weighted base stays where I put it with no slippage.
An innovation that really works.

With red accents the Jabra Evolve 65 is a great looking stylish headset. The battery provided enough power to make it through a full work day. It was comfortable for all-day wear for me due to well-cushioned earpads and light weight. Voices are clear and music reproduction is good. You can use it as a wired headset by connecting it to your computer with a USB cable (included). The Evolve 65 folds flat for storing in the included carrying case. Dual Bluetooth capability lets you connect to multiple devices simultaneously and the integrated busy light provides a signal to others when you are busy. They also use passive noise cancellation.
I would prefer active noise cancelation and a dedicated mute button.
