These are a solid wireless headphone set. Connects easily to Bluetooth, carries a charge that has covered each workout I tried them on.
The band is light and just rests on your neck, doesn't get tight or warm.

Pretty Slick and Good Sound

So I have been hesitant to get a set of truly cordless ear-buds.
I have had wireless ones, that isn't the issue. But the lack of cord between the two pieces, no large battery etc...
I have had wireless ones, that isn't the issue. But the lack of cord between the two pieces, no large battery etc...
After using these now a few times, the probably only thing I am concerned about is forgetting I have them in. :)
Once you have them in your ears, they sit well... and don't come lose much. (I had to really giggle my head way out of the ordinary).
Connected in just a second or two to my iPhone, and immediately was ready for my music.
The only downside I had, is which one goes in which ear, and getting them to fit just right the first time.
Charging is as simple as dropping them back into their case, which is what connects to the wall.
Now for the SOUND, I liked it... but I am not an audiophiliac.
For workouts, and general listening... these should satisfy just about anyone. They also get VERY loud... if you crank up the volume, so be careful.

One less thing to do
on October 24, 2017
Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
After the initial 10 minute setup; this system was ready to cleanup...
Quiet then any previous robotic vacuum I have owned, or seen. It meticulously goes through in arcing patterns, and cleans. It takes a while for it to learn the room, but as it does you can see it cleanup. It is almost funny to watch it the first few times to see if it is going to "get that spot".
Setup is easy, just snap a few brushes on, and plug in the base.
Probably the hardest part is figuring out where you will put the recharging base, and you will probably move it once or twice.
Probably the hardest part is figuring out where you will put the recharging base, and you will probably move it once or twice.
The only negative, so far... is the "boundary" system is a little clunky, especially if you don't have a throw rug or other means to hide the metallic strip. But depending on your usage, that may not even be an issue for most.
Bigger picture... this little robot does wonders to cleanup on a daily basis. You can schedule it to run once a day, or every other day, etc.
Don't throw away your big vacuum just yet though. This robot isn't going to do everything. It can't do carpeted stairs, and tight spaces, where you have to move things. under the sofa, no... So you are going to want to keep that other vacuum around for that once a few weeks deeper clean.
Robot works great on both carpet AND hardwood (we actually have it targeted now mostly for our hardwood area, as that is the higher traffic area).

Sleek, Compact, and Packs a Punch
on October 16, 2017
Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
This unit shows that you don't need a full tower to get a lot of power, and look good doing it. Rocking Windows 10, this system is up and running in minutes... Connect it to the internet, and do all the updates (it can vary in time, based on your connection, but typically over the first night, it will get everything).
Pros: small tower, has a optical drive, 4 USB and SD memory card reader. Upgraded video card (not just the basic one). included keyboard and mouse are descent but you may want to upgrade to wireless ones, based on how and where you are hooking this up.
Cons: For the value, the biggest con I have is that there are two USB ports in the back of the computer. If you are hooking up a camera, printers, scanner or other devices.. only having two in the back may require you to get a hub or run a wire to the front. Minor thing, may not effect many people either.
Also, this unit still had a CLASSIC 9 pin Serial-COMM connection. Just one, but you just don't see that on many new computers today. So if you replacing some older systems, that still need that... this one has one already.
Perfect computer for a student to have their own, or just another system for the family.

Slick Monitor

Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
So if you don't have a widescreen monitor yet, what are you waiting for? Changes the usage of your computer tremendously. This monitor is wide enough for almost all users. It is edge to edge, so no wasted space. Has standard HDMI and VGA connectors.
Setup in less then 5 minutes, connect and go. It really is that simple.
Colors are clear and bright. LED screen uses less power, then some older monitors.

This is not a touch screen monitor, so if you are looking for that advanced feature... this isn't the monitor for you... But if you are looking for an external screen for your laptop, or need a replacement... check this one out.

Quality; Solid; Lasting
on October 16, 2017
Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
So time will have to tell truly how long this cable will last, but the construction is top notch. Solid braded material, rubber footings into the connection points. Compared to the OEM cable for the Apple watch, this one is ready to take some abuse... If you are looking to upgrade or replace your charging cable for your apple watch... This is a solid contender and option.

POPAlexa: got bit by a radioactive Spider
on October 5, 2017
Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
So let's just swing right into it.... This is a Marvel/Spider-Man fan's must have gadget for their desk/room. This Spider-Man, has the shape and look of the popular POP figures. He is larger then the pictures make him out to be... He doesn't move around like other SPHERO products... he just hangs out on his base (or you can remove him when charged).
You interact with a button press, hand motions, and talking to him.
Battle, play a game, hang out... or setup a cool wake-up alarm.
Battle, play a game, hang out... or setup a cool wake-up alarm.
The voice activation, and answering system is similar to that of Alexa (just not to the breath and level, and stays in the context of Spiderman's world).
A really cool gift/toy for the Marvel/Spider-Man fan.
Downsides:
- The packaging, left some black scuffs on the side of his head, we were able to get them out... but those that like their "Toys" to look as NON-PLAYED with, this may be a concern.
- We tried to setup with an iPhone 6SE, and it had all sorts of problems. Then went over to an iPhone 7 on iOS11, and setup very quickly.... so not sure what was going on.

Must Have... For Merge Goggles

Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
Simply put... this is a must have to really enjoy the Merge Goggles VR... This cube gives the system a surface to project VR Objects on to.
Tried out the Anatomy App with this, and I had a BRAIN in my hand, that I could rotate and look around.
Added bonus, the wicked design on the sides, makes a great desk item when not in use.

Good entry level, to try out

This is a entry level, fun "toy" to enjoy some basic VR with.
It will give you a taste of what VR is all about, and if you are eyes/ears and mind are ready for it.

Make no mistake, this is NOT a cheap replacement for an Occulus or one of the higher end systems. This however, is a fun device.
There are immersive 360 videos readily available on YouTube.
There are some simple games and apps available to play with, but some additional accessories (like the cube) are required to get the full emersion.

Pros: Light Weight, adjustable to both eyes and head. Works with an iPhone 6 or better (Also compatible with larger Androids)
Cons: It is made out of foam primarily. So if you snag it or drop it and it hits an edge, it could tear and rip... The lense while adjustable, may not adjust enough for some eyes..

Great Value; Good Picture; Fits presentation needs
on September 27, 2017
Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
This projector is targeted for indoor presentations. This particular unit does not reach HD levels of resolutions, so should not really be a focus point for your home theater usage. It has HDMI input and is capable of displaying a nice picture... but if you are thinking of swapping out your LCD TV for this to get a bigger picture, this isn't the one for you.
This unit has a lumen (picture brightness) that is fairly high, and will work in MOST lighted rooms. It didn't fair so well with an over abundance of sun-light, so be sure your conference room is limited on windows or they are covered, but you won't have to shut all the lights out to be able to see the presentation.
Setup, usage... take just minutes if that. If you know how to turn on the external display option of your laptop, then hooking this projector up is a breeze. It has an HDMI and VGA connectors for direct connections, you can also use USB and the supplied software to connect that. Also supports an optional (add-on) lan option.
This unit is still light enough to be portable, but it is thicker then other Epson projectors. I would highly recommend this one be used in a building, and moved around internally. I would not be taking this with me on a plane, or travel often for presentations.
No carrying bag was provided (nit-pick) as well as no HDMI (VGA was included).
This unit can be EASILY mounted to a ceiling or other flat service, with an appropriate bracket. Remote can be used from front or back, to make adjustments to picture quality.
Contains all the adjustments you would expect: Focus, Zoom, as well as a physical and digital keystone adjustments. Has options to be used from floor or ceiling, as well as a FRONT or REVERSE projects. (Reverse projection works GREAT!!!! for Halloween or other types of presentations).
Bottom line this gets a 4.5 (but have to rate as a 4, since 4.5 isn't an option). Just a few nitpicks. GREAT value for the projector. If you are looking for something to do work, scouting, and other small presentations without high-grade video needs... this is a solid contentor.

3D Ready
January 28, 2016
Per Samsung's site, it states as 3D Ready.
Which means you just need the other equipment (separate), glasses, Blu-ray player, and material source
Glasses are about $20 each.

Is it worth the Ninja Coffee Bar Thermal Carafe System, Stainless Carafe (CF 097) over the CF091? The CF091 has a glass carafe than can stay heated in the warming plate vs the CF097 that has a thermal carafe. Trying to decide if it's worth the extra $$
That really depends on what you are going to use the Thermal carafe for... if you are going to take it with you, or travel... or take it and put it out on a table... then yah... it would e worth it. But if you are really never going to move the Carafe from the heating pad, except to pour... then no need.
