Great Quality and Speed - But Lacks Key Features
on July 16, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The HP - LaserJet Pro M404n was, frankly, a disappointment for me.
PRO:
• It has the high-quality black-and-white laser printing that I've come to expect from HP. And the speed is excellent for multiple-copy jobs.
• It has the high-quality black-and-white laser printing that I've come to expect from HP. And the speed is excellent for multiple-copy jobs.
CON:
• I wrongly assumed that having AirPrint capabilities meant it would also function as a wireless network printer. My bad. It has to be connected via a USB or Ethernet cable in order to show up on the network (via it's connected computer). This created a number of unanticipated inconveniences for me. I believe the advertising should make this clearer.
• The overall build has a more fragile, plastic feel than my other HP printers.
• Due to the issues mentioned above, setup was more challenging than usual.

If you're looking for a quick, high-quality, dedicated B/W printer that is plugged in and useful for multiple-copy jobs, this may be worth considering.
If you're looking for a quality, B/W printer that is easy to set up and use wirelessly on your wifi network, I do not recommend the HP - LaserJet Pro M404n. HP has others that work much better.

A Definite Upgrade to Ink-Jet Printers
on July 2, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Epson EcoTank 3710 is great. Using the new system of filling ink tanks rather than installing cartridges does involve an initial learning-curve if, like me, you haven't done it before. However, once I went through the process, it seemed very simple and straight-forward. They've obviously given thought to how to do it in the best possible way.
Printing is excellent and it handled card stock very well. Set-up was no problem and it immediately just worked.
I have not yet tried the voice-activation feature so can't speak to that, but the other wireless features, double-sided printing and copying were excellent.
On thing to be aware of for this model: Though it prints double-sided very well from files, if you want to copy a double-sided document you do need to copy each side individually. Because of this, I do not recommend this for a use scenario where you'd need to copy double-sided documents often. They do have a version of this same technology that does do duplex copying. On the other hand, lack of duplex capabilities enables this printer-scanner-copier to take up little space, which is perfect for my use.

Excellent Cordless Hand Vacuum with Power to Spare

We live in a desert, which means sand and dirt end up on our car floor, so I knew just where to try out this vac. It did an excellent job. This vac was powerful, and I love the attachment which enabled me to suck up the sunflower seed shells left from our last great desert adventure.

I then tried it on the wood shavings and ash around our fireplace, the crevices in the front door jam, and the army of ants invading the kitchen.
Being able to easily detach the battery and charge it separately is a big improvement over plugging the whole unit in - and this is a powerful battery!
This thing is so strong it sucked up everything except the dog. We don’t own a dog, which is probably why.
Good vac. Made my day.

Quality Gaming Headset with Welcome Features
on June 11, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Astro Gaming - A40 TR Wired Stereo Gaming Headset for Xbox One is a solid, high-quality gaming headset. Especially when it comes to sound. Approaching footsteps and spatial direction were noticeably improved. In group contexts, others remarked on the improvement in the clarity of voice communications.
The on-controller MixAmp M80 makes it easy to adjust settings while playing.
Only negative is that it took more effort than normal to adjust the headset fit to where it was comfortable. Once adjusted, though, it felt great.
All-in-all a quality, high-end gaming headset with welcome features.

Quality, Full-Featured Case for a Good Price
on June 2, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Logitech - Slim Folio Pro is an excellent choice if you're looking for your first keyboard case. If you already have the one that comes from Apple, you may need to weigh the pros and cons further before getting it.
Personally, I really appreciate the added features that come with this keyboard case: More tactile keys, adjustable backlighting, dedicated row of iOS keys, secure magnetic clasp, slot for Apple Pencil, and solid all-around protection. For me, these features are all greatly appreciated.
The one trade-off for these features is size. Though called the 'Slim Folio', this is not a particularly slim case. I would not call it bulky either. But it is not the slimmest option out there. Once again, for me, this is not a problem.
Bottom-line: A Quality, Full-Featured iPad Pro Case for a Good Price

Solid Case if Seeking the Pop Symmetry Feature
on June 2, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Otter + Pop Symmetry Series case for iPhone Xs Max is a well-constructed, versatile product. As you'd expect, the Otterbox case is solid, fit's perfect, and feels light yet very protective.
The Pop feature is definitely a matter of personal preference. My hand is not particularly large, but I found the fit too snug to actually use. When using the pop-out as a stand for viewing videos, I had trouble keeping it from falling over.
It was easy to swap out pop-outs for a change of decor and, as mentioned above, the case itself is excellent. Although I have to pay more attention when placing the phone on my wireless charging pad, it does continue to charge my phone with the case on.
For those looking for a solid case with the Pop feature, this is the one. Just be sure the Pop feature is right for you and your intended use.

Excellent Phone Car Mount Solution
on May 28, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The iOttie - iTap 2 Magnetic CD Slot Car Mount is perfect for my needs. A quick, easy mount for my iPhone in the (very rarely used) CD slot of my car dash. It installed in seconds and has been used ever since.
Two things to consider:
- You need to place a metal plate on the back of your phone for it to connect magnetically to the mount. When I had the plate in the middle of the back of my iPhone, wireless charging (Qi) did not work. I moved it higher and have had no problems since. Try out the position of the plate before using adhesive (if you choose to). I don't use adhesive, as my thin case holds the plate in place.
- If you have a phone case that is too thick, it may not stick to the magnet as well.

For me, this is exactly what I needed and I highly recommend it.
P.S. The mount also can be withdrawn from the CD slot quickly and easily for those times you do need to use it.

Great Apple Watch Charging Solution for Travel
on May 16, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Belkin Apple Watch Power Pack 2200 is a great solution for charging your Apple Watch - especially while traveling. It is small, easy to use, and simple to keep 'filled'.
Though charging is straight-forward, it does not appear to offer a particularly fast charge. I haven't compared it with using my Apple charging cable, so I don't know if it is slower or the same.
However, for my mobile needs, this will be a great addition and definitely get a lot of use.

Solid, Single-Purpose Qi Charger

Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Belkin 10W Wireless Charging Pad is a straight-forward product aimed at the wireless-charging phone market. Though light-weight, it stays firmly in place and charges as expected. Its relatively small footprint is also a plus over others I use.
Would give it 5 stars except that it is single-purpose and does not have additional ports for adding more charging cables.
Otherwise, this is a very good single-purpose product.

Solid Product for It's Style and Price
on May 1, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The JLab Audio – JBuds Band Wireless Neckband Headset is a solid offering. Set up was quick and painless and everything worked as described. Sound is good for both music and speech. The controls are intuitive and responsive and the longer battery-life is a big plus. A welcome addition is the ability to select from three different EQ settings.
The only question is whether or not the neckband style is right for your needs. I found myself wishing the band came down lower so the controls would be a little more accessible. But that's an issue of personal preference.
Otherwise, this is a very solid product for it's price range.

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.
