This is an excellent DIY wireless all-in-one home security system. The best part about this system is that there is no long-term contract or monthly fees. With this method, you purchase the starter kit system, do the self-monitoring, and add additional easy to connect devices. The starter kit system contains the basics: the camera base station (hub), two access sensors for windows & doors, and a remote-control key fob.
The setup is straightforward and only took a few minutes. I just plugged the camera base station, download the app, follow the app instructions to complete the installation and connect the other sensors, cameras, and devices. All sensors are battery operated, so more struggles with wires or plugs. I had to create a Honeywell Home account to complete the setup. The app has a feature to invite additional users to the security system by just entering their email. The other users must also download the app and create a Honeywell Home account to gain access and manage the security system.
The hub is the crucial component and comes integrated with Amazon's Alexa and allows the system to be automated. Its wide-angle camera produces HD quality videos and records sounds. I was impressed that while viewing the camera video, I can zoom in and out. The apps allow two-way audio communication to your home. The hub has both a speaker and a mic, but I am not sure if the additional motion viewer cameras come with a speaker or mic. You can ask Alexa for weather, news, and other information but it does not play Amazon's music (not supported on this device).
The hub allows connection to other Honeywell smart products and third-party z-wave products so that you can connect a thermostat, leak sensor, lights, locks, garage openers and more. The hub lit up that can be seen from the outside, and it helps deter a break-in. The alarm is loud enough to scare away an intruder.
Overall, I am satisfied with this DIY smart home security system. It is simple to use, does an excellent job of protecting your home and is a good smart device to upgrade home. The best part of this self-monitoring system is that there is no long-term contracts or fees.

My new Alienware headset truly enhances a gaming experience. The kit comes complete with its USB dongle for wireless use, a 7ft braided cord and a 3.5mm stereo AUX cord with a mic control.
The headset has a soft cushion band at the top that keeps it comfortable even during prolonged usage. The left and right side identified thanks to its large L & R letter label inside each headset. The headset comfortably adjusts to any size head and each peace swivel in both axes. The Alienware logo and decorative lines light up with different color schemes. The microphone is on when lowered, and it flexes to the desired position. When not in use it lays hidden on the headset. It is well built.
The sound field is excellent and you have the option settings for game, music or movie. For optimal sound experience, the manufacturer recommends the latest software for the headset. With the software, the headset sound and lighting are configurable to the desired setting. The gaming experience is enhanced thanks to the directional and sharp noise produced by the headset. Overall, I enjoy using this headset.

This is my second robot vacuum and more impressed with Neato's various features and smart cleaning technology. Since Neato is a better robot vacuum, it will be used to clean the first floor of my house. Neato does an excellent job cleaning tile, laminated wood, and carpet floors.
Setup is simple, and it just takes a few minutes. Place the charging base against a flat wall with enough clearance on both sides. Like all rechargeable batteries, make sure the robot gets fully charge for optimal battery usage. Then download the Neato app and follow the instructions to connect the robot. Neato's initial cleaning was a learning experience for Neato and myself. Even though it had difficulty navigating under the sofa bed, it did get a functional mapping of the rooms. To fixe the sofa issue, I placed down the magnetic boundary market under the sofa bed.
After Neato created an accurate coverage map, it did not encounter any problems. Now it moves in straight line patterns that partially overlap for more detailed cleaning. I am very impressed at how advanced Neato was able to map two rooms and the sophisticated laser navigation system to vacuum the entire first floor of my house. I searched online for Neato support page on how to use the robot with Google Home and Assistant. With Neato connected to Google Homes, I am able to start and stop Neato, I just speak to my Google Home speakers, "Hey Google, tell Neato to start cleaning." The Neato app sends notifications like when the robot encounters difficulty, needs to empty its dirt bin, or it finished cleaning.
Its battery life allows Neato to clean a large floor plan on a single charge. It is a smart cleaning device that is handy and a time saver. Overall, I am delighted with the Neato robot vacuum.

This Epson WorkForce ES-500 is an excellent scanner to digitize documents, receipts, and photos fully. If you generate a mountain of paperwork, this device will save you time and money. Digitize documents saves employee time from organizing and filing paper document, saves money from having file cabinets, and it is easier and faster to access and to share. I highly recommend storing all data on two secure and reliable data file storage system, one in a hard disk drive and one in a cloud service. I have my data to automatically and routinely back up. The setup and software installation was quick and easy.
I started using this scanner on a stack of receipts that I usually upload and match with an expense record keeping software. I was super impressed with the scan quality and the software being able to extract the information from the receipt. The scanner did not miss a single paper receipt. It was able to scan a stack of tiny, super long, very thine, and crumpled paper receipts without getting jammed. The software was smart enough to get data from each scanned receipt, and it was 99% accurate. One issue was when the receipt had two forms of payments, and the software only detected the first payment. Another problem was a receipt with blurred and faded print. But other than these two issues, the scanner is very accurate. The date it collects depends on the software settings, and they include total amount, date, tip, tax paid, payment method, and card number. You can further input the tax type, classification, sub-classification, and comment space. After I complete scanning all the receipts, I save them and match it with my expense record keeping software. Before this scanner, I was using my smartphone, but this scanner is a lot better.
Scanning a stack of pages is quick and with impressive good quality. The software saves the documents to PDF formats that can be searchable and editable. Overall, I am satisfied with my new scanner. It handles documents without paper jam, does double-sided scanning, it is quick, and the software is useful.

One major factor I consider in a headphone is how well they fit my head and how they feel. The RIG 500 PRO is for sure a comfortable headphone and even during long-term use. The entire headset is very lightweight and the ear cushion is very soft. The headband is self-adjusting and ear cushions can be adjusted to three positions, depending on person head size. The volume can be easily controlled by turning the dial/knob at the end of the aux wire which connects to the controller. The microphone turns on when lowering and off when flipping it upwards
It does a good job of reducing ambient noise. The most important consideration of a headset is how well they sound. This new headset is a great improvement to the one I was using. It produces a sound that is more accurate and of a wider range. The sound overall is definitely high-resolution audio with little distortion. It improves the experience of playing live with my friends.
I connected this headset to my laptop and smartphone it is compatible with those devices, even the mic works. Overall, I am very satisfied with this headset.

My laptop is great, but its screen size is small to work long hours at my home office. I got this HP monitor to extend my screen view from my laptop, and it works perfectly. Installation is quick and easy. The IPS feature allows viewing the monitor at an angle, and it has consistently looking color, up to 178 degrees. When I use two screens, I usually view them at an angle, and this HP monitor works perfectly for this type of setup. The monitor produces large clear images. It has a fast refresh rate of 75Hz which is suitable for most applications and decent for some gaming. The fast refresh is possible because the monitor has the AMD Freesync Technology. The monitor looks high tech with the 3-sided micro-edge and ultraslim thickness. It is very lightweight, and it tilts forward and backward to accommodate for best viewing angle. The monitor is not a VESA mount. I am satisfied with my new HP monitor.

I bought this for my Papago GoSafe 550 but did not worked because it had a bigger plug. The one star rating is because the kit dose not come with the adapter to connect to a car's fuse box. If you want to tap to the fuse box with this kit, you must also a fuse tap connector.

This laptop has truly impressed me. It is amazing in quality and has a top end
resolution. Moreover, it is very simple and easy to set up, use, and to adapt to. As promised, this computer allows one to be more productive, working efficiently with the touch-screen feature (very responsive), and it is also highly personalized to meet one’s specific needs. The keyboard has easy-to-read keys and has a well illuminated backlit feature. It is easy and comfortable to type. The size of the mouse touchpad decent which is smooth and very responsive.
Furthermore, it works smoothly. Windows Hello (face recognition) feature works adequately when the device is put at a certain distance from the face. I am especially fond of Windows Ink as it promotes competence in any project or assignment I work on; I also enjoy drawing. Its performance is great as it works quickly and has sufficient battery life. The speakers have remarkable stereo quality, which I am very excited about. Topping it off, this convertible 2-in-1 laptop has aesthetic look and promising storage.

The antenna is great; it is designed for outdoor or indoor use, with table/floor stand, pole or wall mount. It comes with the necessary hardware to install in pole or wall and the mounting allows the antenna to swivel for any adjustments. The antenna is multi-directional which is suitable for indoors. It is rated at 65 miles for indoors and 80 miles for outdoors (equivalent to rather large and ugly-looking older antennas). Now I get a boost reception rage and more channels with this ANTOP antenna. My Smart TV now gets 83 channels compared to 61 from the other older antenna I was using. I am very satisfied with how this device looks and the high quality - very clear- reception it gets. I am using the table/floor stand but when I get approval from my community HOA, I will install it next to a window. I am very confident it will get approval because this antenna looks a lot nicer than those metal satellite dishes that most residents have on the houses.

You can attach connect a headphone to the Stream mic. I find it very useful the feature to connect your headphones to the mic which makes it very simple so that your hand does tangle with your headphones. This setup is a lot better than having the headphones connected to the Xbox controller.

What's a broom stick and pop filter? I saw in one of the answer you said a broom stick and pop filter will make this mic better?

The boom stick/arm/stand allows for the mic to be floating on top of your desk and not directly on the desk/table. This will reduce the noise produced from your keyboard or other device being capture by the microphone. The pop filter is to improve the voice quality. The stream mic is great, try it without the other accessories first before buying the other stuff.

Just had this tv delivered yesterday and its $30 cheaper today can I get a credit

Yes. It is in their PriceMatch policy: "If we lower our in-store or online price during the return and exchange period, we will match our lower price, upon request."
Also, since Best Buy store prices aren't always the same as the BestBuy.com (online) prices, it is good to know that they also do price match between those two: " We match BestBuy.com prices on in-store purchases and in-store prices on BestBuy.com purchases." In respect to Price Match, I like Best Buy because they don't give you an issue compared to other stores.
Conclusion, if you within the return period you can get back the difference between what you paid and the cheaper price.

Do it fast and good luck.
