I'm the Regional Engineering Manager for almost 50 radio stations in the Midwest. With the Covid-19 virus on the loose we needed to have our DJs work from home but sound live and local.
These Samson Meteor USB mics were PERFECT! They sound like our $350 mics in the studios, and it's what we bought everyone to use. Problem solved.

This is the best of both worlds. Lots of storage in a very small package. I use this in my cell phone for storage and it has been great. I now have plenty of space for my pictures and files. No more running out of space.

My son uses this for gaming, I use it for business and email. The screen is a perfect size for both! The curve is cool and minimizes the need to turn your head to see the extremes of the screen.

So after a few years of use from my APC UPS the battery failed. It was a struggle getting the old battery out but simple to order this APC replacement battery and slide it right into the UPS.
Finding your replacement battery cartridge number is as easy as going to the APC website and searching for your model number of UPS.
Then come back to Bestbuy and search for the battery cartridge number....#123 in this case.

Is it BPA free? Can it dehydrate food too?

The cooking pan isn't plastic but is non-stick metal. No BPA here. Not sure on the dehydrate question, sorry.

can this be used with the HP - Stream 14" Laptop - Intel Celeron (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-stream-14-laptop-intel-celeron-4gb-memory-64gb-emmc-flash-memory-textured-linear-grooves-in-smoke-gray/6304139.p?skuId=6304139)

If you mean can it be used for either the 4GB main memory, or the 64GB eMMC flash memory, the answer is it can not be used for either one.

What size hanging bolts do I need? I bought a floor model that didn't come with it.

These are specialty items. The manufacturer will send more out to you for free if you call them. If you don't have a manual or can't find the toll free number online your local store where you bought it can get you the number.

dose this have one touch express

I'm not positive what one touch express is, but this has the ability to add :30 seconds of cook time by simply pressing a button. Repeated presses of the button continue to add:30 to the total cook time.
