when BB put this on sale big discount ,, i jumped .. and essentially very happy ,, 1TB is tons of storage for my camera to store .. although it is not the fastest ,, it has not been any problem with the canon body it is in ,, for photo and video ..
this big 1tb lets me do way bigger dumps to my backup hard drive in one shot ,, when it starts to fill which saves some aggravation when the time comes.. i been only a sandisk buyer and never hada problem with all of them ..

look at my photo, i have 2 of these, the new one from BB is hooked up and working just a good as my first one that is 3 year old and still working great .. it cools my bedroom and can the whole 2nd floor of 4 bedrooms, you need to add a fan to push the cold out of the one bedroom ,, i plan to rotate use of 2 each summer now ,, so as to reduce wear and tear to each to last as long as it can ..
here are tips if you look at my photo and read further, i made a stand so the ducts are as short as possible,, for best efficiency ,,
tip #2 get 1/4" foam insulation and wrap around the hot exhaust tube with duct tape to hold,,
tip#3 i made a wood window mount to screw and silicone the outlet connectors for a solid mount to easily install and remove..
tip#4 -drill a hole in stand for tubing to a pan under it for overflow water , but so far each summer ,, none has dripped out ,, since all condensing water is blown out the exhaust tube.
Tip#5 before storing after summer ,, unit backwards to make sure the standing water inside is dumped out easily with the stand ,,

just as other reviewers who raved that this does a great job of passing the wind ,, i agree .. and i bet it is because of the engineering or design make it works .. i got this because of the remote ,, as this is in my bedroom and i can turn it on and off while in bed ... perfect .. the other added nice feature is definitely the panning and tilting up and down ,, all features making a worthwhile product ..

this is my 2nd blue WD purchased ,, since bestbuy put them on sale again ,, i wonder if these hdd are will be phased out in favor of ssd is the reason .. so getting some extra on sale seems logical to me .. also,, i been using the free acronis backup software making backups .. finally without having to buy it ..
i used acronis to create a backups on the 1st blue ..and then created a bootable clone on the 2nd blue .. i also worked on creating a bootable clone on a usb WD passport drive too but not tested a boot with it yet .. however when the blue booted ,,, it took about 4 to 5 minutes where the motherboard ssd boots takes just a minute .. another thing which i liked was the boot ssd was 2TB and had 2 partitions of 1TB ,, and when the blue 4TB bootable was created ,, the acronis created 2 partitions of 2TB each .. .which make me even more happier ..
my eventual plan is to use the bootable blue to now make a bootable 4TB ssd ,, and keep the 2TB ssd and boot blue as backup out of the desktop ..

even though i give a good rating ,, i donna recommend ,, you are limited on how thick or tall what you want to cook ,, and it does cook well .. but when i wanted to broil a chop or steak ,, the existing grill rack that comes with it ,, sets it too close to the top heating elements ,, but i got around that by using a grill rack with 1-inch legs to then sit on top of the bottom drip pan .. other than that it works as designed.. but would have really like it,,, if it was a inch taller inside the oven .. or just added another slide in lower.position for the grill ,, since there is only one position..
it is convenient that it can tilt up to give you back some counter space ,which was the reason i got this to try ,, but other small ovens are just as good and cheeper.. ..
in addition, other reviewers comment about oil or grease dripping from the oven ,, i suspect this is because of air frying and broiling with the fan traps oil fumes within the oven which then accumulates,, so over time to drip out ,, and there is no oem design to clean it ,, and is the same with all these small appliances.. .. and of course your over stove exhaust fan

this is definitely a better quality trimmer than other cheeper brands ,, however it does not shave as close .. and the reason is the cutters do not touch your nose skin ,, at first i was little disappointed but over a few uses ,,, it is less irritation to the nose ,, so you just need to use it more often ,, which is no big thing .. and pretty happy with this for now .
.and hopefully if i drop it and it does not break into pieces ,, then i know this is a way better quality than the cheepy one .. which was the reason for buying this ..

Connect up to 4 devices to the coaxial connection from your cable or indoor/outdoor VHF/UHF/FM antenna with this mini drop amplifier. It works with the DC power provided by components, or with the AC power provided by the included adapter.
I have 4 TV's wired for cable & trying to switch to antenna. Purchased RF-G1179 splitter. Installed antenna & plugged antenna cable into INPUT, & connected power. When I disconnect first TV cable wire & plug into output can't scan any channels no signal??
it looks like you are doing a first time ota tv antenna , either indoor or outdoor ,, you may need to point your antenna to transmitting tower .. and get a signal ,, if weak , then the amp will boost the signals .. if you have no signal the amp will do nothing ..

Aspherical lens elements ensure less distortion in the corners of the image without affecting the centers, and a continuous f/2.8 aperture means this lens is fast.

Would like to use this lens to photograph the Grand Canyon. I am an amateur photographer with an EOS Rebel SL1. Would I be able to use this lens with this camera & have it on auto focus? Thank you for your time.
if your question is real ,, my personal = no ,, for many reasons ...you would not understand based on your experience level ..
if you can spend $2k lens with $400 camera ,, i would recommend getting a bridge camera like a nikon p1000 or p500 series ..
and have way more of a camera setup for your experience level to use and save you at least $1000 ...
if you just a lens recommendation , i see bestbuy has the Sigma 8-16mm as a better match for you level and camera ,, to just answer your question which is for the wide angle view and auto ..and save you about $1300 .. .

Compatible with the Mark IV DSLR camera, this Canon battery grip offers room for up to two Li-ion battery packs.

Insignia™ - 9' Extension Power Cord
Charge small appliances with this Insignia extension cord. Its 9-foot length lets you run the lightweight cable around the room for versatile placement, and the three grounded outlets provide extra charging points. This 16-gauge Insignia extension cord has a PVC coating for long-lasting use, and the easy-grip plug is quick to remove.
wall outlet is a two prong is there any extension cords that will fit in two prong but be able to plug a grounded cord from a tv lets say
you are better off just changing the old wall 2 prong outlet ,, home depot -lowes or hardware store sells 3 prongs ,, swap out your old and connect the ground ,, and you are not just better off but safer too
