Good Flexible Product for Younger Children
on August 11, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The JLab Audio - JBuddies Play Gaming Headset is a solid option when looking for a multi-use solution for younger children (I'd recommend 8 and under). They're small, light and comfortable to wear for extended periods. The option of bluetooth or analog, and the included mic make them very versatile.
The built-in volume level limit is a reassurance for parents of very young children. However, as familiarity with tech grows, their expectations may expand beyond this offering - that will definitely differ from family to family. My young grandsons enjoyed them a lot, but felt the analog volume controls were a little tricky (probably trying to make them louder). They also felt the bass was weak.
On the other hand, the headset paired easily with various Bluetooth devices and, as a result, was helpful for a number of use scenarios.
This makes the JLab Audio - JBuddies Play Gaming Headset a good, affordable solution for younger children.

Good Gaming Power for a Great Price
on July 15, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Dell - G5 15.6" Gaming Laptop - 144Hz - AMD Ryzen 7 - 8GB Memory - AMD Radeon RX 5600M - 512GB Solid State Drive is a great laptop for gaming at an affordable price.
I would probably be classified as a casual gamer - Tomb Rader, Jedi Knight, AC, etc. So I'm not up on all of the specs and framerates. I just know if it looks good and plays smooth - and that's exactly what I've experienced. The image is very crisp and the graphics were impressively quick, smooth and engaging with no lagging at all.
I like using my XBox controller, which worked with no problem. The onboard sound is not that good, but I prefer headphones anyway and that worked excellently. I'm looking forward to using it plugged into a larger monitor and external speakers - just haven't had the chance yet.
As you should expect with a gaming laptop, it gets hot. When using it on my lap, I've needed to use a pad. Otherwise it is not doable.
Bottom-line. I am thoroughly enjoying this powerful, yet affordable, gaming laptop.

DOES WHAT IT NEEDS TO DO - VERY WELL
on July 11, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Belkin - USB Type C-to-HD D-Sub/USB Type C Cable is another one of those Belkin accessories that simply works - and that makes it just what I needed. I do presentations from either my MacBook Pro or iPad in different settings and always need to be ready to work with older projectors that aren't HDMI yet.
Without this adapter, I was relying on a mega-USB-C hub. That's overkill - and a hassle to carry around.
This is just right for my needs.

The KitchenAid - KHMB732BM 7-Speed Hand Mixer is a pleasure to use. Freedom from cords, which inevitably get in the way when using hand mixers, is wonderful!
The unit was surprisingly strong, yet light, and just feels right in your hand. The charge also lasted much longer than I expected.
As has already been mentioned, this is probably not for major, all-day baking sessions. But for normal active usage, this is great!

Just Works As Needed for Newer Connections
on July 8, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Belkin - Connect 46' USB Type C-to-USB Type C Adapter, as with most all Belkin products, just simply works. And that's exactly what you want and expect of it.
Being all USB-C ports, this is about being connected with the newest gadgets. With my growing list of accessories that use USB-C, the usefulness of this adapter will only increase with time.
The reason I gave it 4 stars, instead of 5, is that it's pricey for such a basic connector.

Solid Improvement on an Already Stellar Product
on June 17, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Circle Home Plus is a solid improvement on an already stellar product. For those looking for simple but thorough control over family internet use and site access, this is a no-brainer.
Yes, it will cost you a monthly fee to maintain the top features after your free trial expires. However, my experience is that those who place a high value on what the Circle Home Plus provides will have no problem with the monthly (or yearly) charge.
A great product for a much-needed application.

Excellent Choice for Wireless Earbuds on a Budget
on June 17, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Skullcandy - Sesh Evo True Wireless In-Ear Headphones are an excellent choice for true wireless earbuds on a budget. Charging, pairing, charging case, convenience - it's all there at a great price. These have all the expected features at this level and are comfortable to wear for extended times.
You should not expect super high-fidelity sound or noise-canceling at this tier, but neither is missed for practical day-to-day use.
One thing I found especially intuitive was the way the control scheme uses the left and right earbuds: left is for going back a song or lowering the volume, right is for going forward a song or increasing the volume. Minor, but to me, appreciated.

Listen to music on the go with this black Sony EXTRA BASS portable Bluetooth speaker. The shockproof, dustproof, and waterproof design allows use on rugged terrain and near pools, while the rechargeable battery offers up to 12 hours of playback on a single charge. This Sony EXTRA BASS portable Bluetooth speaker has an X-balanced speaker unit for well-balanced sound.
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Sony - SRS-XB23 Portable Bluetooth Speaker is pretty much just what it presented itself to be: A comfortably mobile Bluetooth speaker prepped for outside use, long battery life, and capable of producing volume beyond expectations. No complaints on any of these points.
The only thing to keep in mind in getting this speaker is that it is for volume, decent base and impressive coverage. It is not for high fidelity sound. It has a nice solid sound, but there's a slight soft edge to the individual parts which increases to a (very slightly) muffled quality at high volume. When listening nearby, it makes a significant difference as to what part of the speaker is pointing towards you. This is not the case when it is placed further away.
On the other hand, I would expect that you would experience a whole new level of quality by pairing 2 of these units together - one of it's added features.

Excellent Keyboard Case for iPad with Trade-offs
on May 20, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Logitech - Slim Folio Pro Keyboard Case for Apple® iPad® Pro 11" (1st and 2nd Gen) is an excellent, protective case offering a superb typing experience for the iPad.
Typing is solid and comfortable for extended use. The row of iPad function keys is very convenient and genuinely helpful. The levels of backlighting are nice and the Apple Pencil holder included with the magnetic latch gives a much-needed sense of confidence and security when bringing the Pencil along.
The trade-offs come in two areas:
- When using the iPad for reading in portrait mode or sketching, the case is bulky, loose and awkward. It is clearly intended for typing as it primary use. However, I often read with it on my lap in typing mode and that works fine.
- The bulk added by this case eliminates the slim, light form-factor of the iPad and also makes using the iPad buttons difficult.

Great Balance of Features - Glad We Got It
on May 3, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The ECOVACS Robotics - DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI Robot Vacuum & Mop is a significant improvement in smart robot vacuums. In the past, I've found that those trying to be 'smart' - mapping, video detection, etc. - were so finicky they were practically useless. So we've enjoyed our 2 'bump-n-go' models because they just work.
However, the Deebot OZMO seems to be a good balance. It has smart features and mapping tech, but it keeps running and rarely gives unneeded error messages. The vacuum was also more powerful at picking up and has a slightly lower form factor than our previous ones. All very good.
As for the mopping feature, it's usefulness is probably going to depend on how much mopping surface you have and whether or not it's in a single large space or separated into different zones. The OZMO won't switch between vacuum and mop modes automatically, you have to attach the pad and add water and then take it to the mopping area. Once there it does a good job. So, the convenience of this feature depends on your specific layout and needs. In our case, we have a small kitchen and very small dining area and it's probably easier to grab a quick light-duty mop than to set up the OZMO.
But, as long-time users of robot vacuums, this is a significant upgrade to our previous models and a much-improved balance of smart features and simple reliability.
We are Very Glad we Got this! (the only reason I didn't give 5 starts is because each mode has to be done separately).

What is the voltage 110 or 220. 220 uses half the electricity but has a special plug.
It's 110 - i.e. normal American household power outlet

Apartment use. Currently have a TimeWarner modem router and an extender in living room. parts of living room are slow and gaps. will these replace the modem router and will range be better?
I had a similar set-up as you describe. You will still need the modem function of your modem router to supply the internet signal from TimeWarner, but if you connect via ethernet from your existing modem router to the ORBI system, you should get a stronger system and better speed. I'm not with TimeWarner, but I had purchased and was using a modem router. After installing ORBI as described above, the strength and speed of my signal increased measurably. Remember that the wifi cannot make the speed greater than what arrives via your provider, but a better system, such as the ORBI, can bring the wireless signal closer to the actual ethernet speed. That's what it did for me.

So if it comes with two, I'm assuming you have one that internet is linked to by cable and the other is used as a extender? Or do you have to have both units hooked to cable?
You are correct. There is the Router unit, which must be connected by ethernet to your cable or dsl provider, and there is the Satellite unit which connects wirelessly with the main Router unit and extends the same signal with the same wifi name.

Will this product cover a 2000 sq. ft., one level house with only one (1) WiFi Name? The reason for this question is I'm currently using an extension to my router which has given the front of the house a different wifi name from the back of the house.
Yes. That's one of the advantages of this system versus a basic range extender, with the ORBI it's all the same wifi name. Plus, if you desire, you can pick up the satellite unit and move it according to you needs. It only takes 1-2 minutes for it to reconnect with the main router.
