HP - 24f 23.8" IPS LED FHD FreeSync Monitor (HDMI, VGA) - Natural Silver
View work and entertainment comfortably with this 23.8-inch HP monitor. The anti-glare panel lets you see content clearly in various lighting conditions, and the virtually frameless design lends a minimalist aesthetic to your home office. Prevent eyestrain by switching to this HP monitor's Low Blue Light mode for a warmer appearance.
 
Very good value

Bought this for my new sister-in-law so she could take video of our wedding ceremony in MT. The device got super hot and when we popped the battery out, it was smokin’ hot! It was scary. She popped out the SD card and hopefully she got some decent video. We’ll see. Save your money & get a GoPro.

Please see my review for the Google Chromecast. The same issue with trying to connect this to hotel WiFi plagues this product. One day I’ll try to bring my Verizon ellipsis hotspot with me to see if that works.

I know, I know...you can buy charger cables a dime a dozen online. Ask me how many end up broken & discarded! This short cable is perfect with an external battery charger/pack.

Yes, I know I can rip my CDs to iTunes but sometimes you just want to pop a CD in. I bought a cheap player at B.B. and hooked this up to an Insignia FM transmitter. It works best away from metro areas.

Once charged does it stay charged as long as you don't turn it on?

It seems to. Any battery, if left on the shelf for a long time, will run down. I haven’t seen any loss of capacity in the short time I’ve had it.

Has anyone had difficulties using this keyboard on a Mac? I know it says it is Mac compatible, however I am having intermittent operation issues. A lot of the time, it works just fine. Sometimes, it doesn't work at all.

Sorry I can’t help as I don’t have a Mac other than a MacBook Pro laptop.
