This is a solidly built extension cable. The female end
makes a good, solid connection. The male end is also
of good quality. The cable itself also appears to be of

Compact design with up to 23-mile range. With weather alerts, be prepared for storms and emergencies with built-in NOAA radio receiver. Voice-activated (VOX) transmission frees hands for other tasks. Five selectable tones will distinguish between different parties for incoming calls. A total of 2662 channel combinations are available when the 22 channels are combined with the 121 privacy codes (38 CTCSS/83 DCS). These combinations prevent interference from other radios.

This is a pair of good, budget FRS radios.
I have used them up to a 1/4 mile in a
residential neighborhood, with some trees.
They sound very good and clear in that setting -
absolutely no static!
I have tested them inside a car, and they will
permit car to car communications for distances
up to at least a 1/4 mile.
These radios are compact and easily fit most hands.
They are easy to use, and work right out of the box.
My only criticism is that the rechargeable Ni-MH batteries
provided have a small capacity of only 650 mAh. On the
plus side, they will take less time to recharge using the
provided cradle than higher capacity Ni-MH rechargeable
AA batteries.
I got mine on sale, and consider them a good buy.

This drive is excellent for travel storage. It is very small -
only a few times larger than a jump drive. It is very
rugged, and well protected from the elements - making
it great for the outdoors. I have the 1TB model, which
comes already formatted as exFAT and ready for use
for both Android and Windows. I am using it to store
a lot of movies in mp4 ranging in size from 3GB to 30GB.
I uploaded them through a USB 3.0 port on my tower.
The speed is good, as can be seen in the test results
below. The drive did get warm while putting almost
900GB onto the drive, but never exceeded 45deg C.
It did this big job without a hitch!

When your new computer accessory isn’t compatible with your hardware, don’t go buying all new expensive devices. Instead, give this adapter a try.

It supports up to 5 Gbps of high-speed data transfer between devices, saving you time.

hello, is the power brick 110 up to 240v?

The power brick I got with my 18tb easystore drive
says it accepts input of 100-240V, 50-60Hz, 0.6A max.
It has a standard US 2-prong blades. It is international capable, but you need to provide the adapter needed for the country you use it in.

I purchased this, but cant find the power button to turn it off. I hate to leave it plugged in all the time when it's not in use most of the time. Is there a power button on it? If not, then do i have to physically unplug when it's not in use?

The WD Easystore external drives do not have a power button to turn the unit off and on, A possible solution would be to plug the power brick in to a power strip with a switch.

(I think that another version of this drive sold by other retailers - the WD Elements external drive - does have a power button on the back. However, this button looks to be an electronic switch. So even that drive will remain connected to power when turned off with the switch.)
