This is a nice light, but that has one issue.
The so called "on button", is not really a button. It is a
contact point. The light turns on when it and part of the
metallic housing are touched simultaneously. Your body
completes the circuit, and the light comes on. When the
circuit is broken, the light goes out, but only after several
seconds.

The problem that arises is that most people will have this
light in a pocket. Every time the hand enters the pocket
there is a good chance the light will be turned on.
This will shorten the life of the battery.

This will shorten the life of the battery.
I have created a simple way to avoid this by putting a
small piece of tape over the "button" to shield it from
my fingers (see picture). It is simple, and works.

This is a great drive - a huge amount of storage and fast!
However, if you are writing large amounts to it, you may
need to get a fan. Let me relate to you my experience.
However, if you are writing large amounts to it, you may
need to get a fan. Let me relate to you my experience.
When I first got the drive, I set it up to do a full scan of
the drive. I did a CrystalDiskInfo before I started (see
the picture), and the disk temperature was 31deg C.
The scan took 5 hours. At the end of the scan the disk
temperature had risen to 50deg C (see the picture). After
completing the scan I watched to see how the temperature dropped. After 3 hours it had fallen to
45deg C. The passive cooling acts very slowly, despite
the large number of slots in the bottom, top, and back
of the drive housing.

of the drive housing.
Next I obtained a dual fan, and set one at the back to
push cool air into the drive. I put the second on top of
the drive to pull hot air out of the drive. I then wrote files to the drive for 3 hours. The starting temperature of the
drive was 30deg C. The temperature at the end of the
3 hours of copying files was just 33 deg (see picture)! I think this shows the effectiveness of having external fans.

I use this drive to archive material on my desktop computer at regular intervals. Large amounts are written
to the drive, and I need the fans to maintain the health
of the drive. I suspect that others using this drive will
be doing something similar, and would benefit by adding
fans.

Panasonic Cordless Phone KX-TGD863A with digital answering system features Link2Cell so you can make or receive mobile calls through handset units for call clarity even in cell dead zones. The KX-TGD863A also includes Bilingual Talking Caller ID and smart call block features that make it easier than ever to block and avoid nuisance callers.
Sorry, but must ask this again as it was not addressed by a previous reply. Other than the number of handsets, are there any significant feature differences between KX-TGD862 and KX-TGD863? If so, can I get a KX-TGD863 with only 2 handsets?
The only difference between them is the color scheme. If you prefer the color scheme of the KX-TGD863, I believe you have no choice but to accept it with 3 handsets. Having a spare could be a good thing.

Rid your home of uncomfortably dry air with this Kyvol HD5 ultrasonic humidifier, which offers 360 degree and detachable spray nozzle which helps improve the dry air in a super quiet way. With Unique and Innovative MegaMist Technology, the mist volume can be increased to 600ml/h and the mist height can reach 40 inches instantly, which gives the droplets enough time to evaporate in the air, protecting your desk or carpet from getting wet.
I bought this product, filled it up and works great. Now that the water needs to be refilled, I’m have issues twisting the cap off, it’s completely stuck and I’m not sure how to refill it without removing the cap. What do I need to do?
It sounds like you either put the cap on too tight, or cross threaded it when you put it on. I think you will have to use brute force turning the cap counterclockwise. After filling the tank, take care putting the cap back on - making certain
it threads properly when you tighten it clockwise, but not too tight.
