We've been using these docking stations for a while now. The VGA output allows the older monitors to continue to be used, while the HDMI outputs give the flexibility of 3 monitors if the user wants. Several USB jacks make these the perfect docking stations.

The Culligan® WH-HD200-C Heavy-Duty Sediment Filter allows you to preserve and protect your household plumbing and water-using appliances. Designed for installations where a 1-inch water main is present at the point of entry, this filter housing features stainless steel reinforced inlet/outlet and cap for added durability. A filter life indicator is built into the filter head which alerts you when you need to change your filter cartridge . The large filter size provides 4 times the capacity where high sediment concentration is an issue. Because water quality varies among locations, the WH-HD200-C is sold without a filter cartridge. The unit comes with a 2-year limited warranty. The WH-HD200-C housing uses filter cartridges CW5-BBS, CW25-BBS, CP5-BBS, P25-BBS, R50-BBSA, and RFC-BBSA. Filter cartridge sold seperately.

Originally bought the 3/4" input/output port version, had to return for this 1" input/output port version so our water pressure wouldn't be affected.
We live in the country and have a well. We use this whole house filter and a soft water conditioner and that's all we need. Perfect water.
The built-in bypass valve makes filter changes a breeze.

Had to buy a new 12' HDMI cable, the old cable was destroyed by employees. The old cable was the very expensive brand at BestBuy. VERY cheaply made connectors on the expensive brand.
This Insignia, BestBuy store branded,cable was the perfect replacement. The connectors are molded and should survive years of employee abuse.

We already have a whole-house water filter. is the Samsung water filter required, or is there a way to bypass the filter in this unit?

Most Samsung water and ice dispensers will work without an AquaPure water filter installed. The water filter housings are designed as rotary valves that allow the water to bypass the water filter whenever there is no filter or the filter is not in the locked position.

The Freezer sign 0 is flicking and stuff in the freezer is thawing

A blinking temperature display is trying to get your attention, typically because the temperature is too high and things need to cool down. It could also be because a door has been left open. Any other blinking lights may require a power cycle to correct the issue.

Capture footage from a variety of perspectives using this Joby Action Series JB01329 suction cup and GorillaPod Arm, which let you mount and reposition your compatible action video camera. A quick-twist lock helps ensure secure attachment.
 

will it work on a boat

It's your basic suction cup. Works very well on a flat surface. I wanted it to stick to a drywalled wall with eggshell finish...no good. But, it stuck great in the upper corner of the TV, so that's where it lives, holding our camera for teleconferencing.
