 Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

We just wanted to be able to watch the news before bed or first thing in the morning. We couldn't rationalize another cable box in the bedroom since we don't watch that TV more than once or twice a week. This is the perfect solution since we get local stations and a little more. The picture is quite good and you can't beat the price. We may get another for the workshop in the garage.

My husband got the bug for a bigger TV so we replaced our 60" with this one. I thought that the picture couldn't be much better than the one we had but, boy oh boy was I wrong!! It is so clear, sharp and the colors are spectacular. I can't wait to see an action packed movie on this TV or the upcoming Superbowl - although I'm afraid I will become a couch potato watching this... LOL. Love, love, love this TV.

I already have Alexa in my living room, a Dot in my bedroom and now, another Dot in my home office. My life just keeps getting easier with these "techo-toys" and I use them everyday. I love the convenience of just using my voice to arm the security system, get a weather report, play music, control lights and so much more. Now, I only need one of them to do the laundry !!

I purchased this thinking it would be a bright white dimmable light but, it is much more yellow in tone and it is not a good light for reading. It isn't as bright as expected, and the remote only dims it further. I have to use the app on my phone to get to the maximum whitish light so that I can read. I'm planning to connect it to Alexa and will see if that makes it any easier to control.

Control your life with the Amazon Echo. It started with a music player that could play anything from Prime Music to Spotify and Pandora, and it gives you hands-free convenience, yet it can now control lights, switches and thermostat and answer questions thanks to advanced voice recognition. Use the Amazon Echo to order an Uber or even pizza from Domino's.

I love the ease with which I was able to set up and connect Alexa to the internet in my home. I set an alarm to get up to go to the gym, a reminder for things, ask her the weather and she wakes me with the trivia of the day - which is sometimes very amusing !! I also ask her the news, the weather and what's on my calendar for the day. Every day I try something new and am always delighted with her and amazed by each new attribute of my Echo. I have a Dot in my bedroom as well and plan to add one to my home office. I think I'm becoming addicted to these wonderful and helpful units.

This was a replacement for a previous Harmony remote. I thought it would be a simple process to transfer the info from the old one to the new one...it wasn't. I had to fiddle around with it for a couple of frustrating days but, finally got it working and it is fantastic, and does all it's supposed to with ease. You can pay for installation or use the online guide like I did. It helps if you are a little more computer savvy than I am. I'm now going to try to get it to play nice with Alexa, fingers crossed.

I wanted something small, big on features, simple to use, and won't break the bank. This is it !! It is everything that I wanted and looks nice on the bookshelf in my sunroom. The sound is very good - bear in mind I'm not trying to use it in a concert hall, just my personal space. Best of all, it was not a budget-buster.

Not everyday in every circumstance do I want to be wearing my Fitbit in a rubber band !! This gives me ways to continue to track my activity while still wearing my tracker but looking more stylish with bracelets or a pendant . While rubber is fine for summer and shorts, it's not the look I want on a daily basis.

Now I can swim and keep on tracking!! I like the smaller size and the features that I didn't have in my first Fitbit Flex. It's great that I can dress it up when I'm not in the gym or pool with new bracelets or pendants that co-ordinate with street clothes. Love this !!

What are the dimensions of the VESA mounting screws to the bottom (or top) of the tv?

I'm not sure what you mean by the "dimensions of the mounting screws". All I can tell you is that it is the standard VESA mount configuration on the back of the TV. Ours is hung securely above our fireplace using the VESA mount we purchased and the screws that came with that mount fit just fine in the new TV. The mount is not a specific one for the Samsung TV, just specific for the size of the TV. Hope this helps.

What does this connect box look like? And what are the component inputs and outputs? There are bunches and bunches of pictures of the TV, but NO information about this box...

The box is fairly small and mounts to the back of the TV. I'm not very tech-savvy so I can't explain what it does but, you can probably find out all the info you need by going to the Samsung website and looking up the model there. Good luck!!

Just purchased this TV but I received a plastic remote rather than the metal one. I thought all Q series come with a metal remote. That's what I see in the demo and online. Can anyone please help with what kind of remote they received with there TV. Thank

Ours came with the standard ( but simplified ) plastic remote and it works fine. However, we bought a Logitech Harmony remote and control the TV and all the peripherals with the one remote. Sort of expensive but, now I've added one more remote to my drawerful of them and only need one for all the features and functions of all the components. Hurray for simplicity!!

Can I control smart outlets with alexa when I am not home?

As far as I can tell, if you download the Alexa app on your smartphone you will be able to control lights and whatever else you have of connected home items.
