Great Case for a Great Price
on March 18, 2023

Great Case for a Great Price.
I like the feeling of protection for my iPhone without having a lot of bulk to the case. This is a good solution. It feels really good - smooth with just a slight bit of traction for a solid grip. I like the way it has a protective rim around the opening for the camera lenses so that it protects them when you place the phone down flat on a surface - something I tend to do all the time.
An added plus is the way it includes extra help for wireless charging via the specially engineered 'charging ring' built into the case. The phone charges wirelessly with the case on just fine and there's no extra bulk added by the 'charging ring'. These are both big plusses as far as I'm concerned.
On top of all that, I like the pleasing, subtle look of this color green. It adds a nice touch without being too flashy - which is just what I, personally, like.
When it comes to phone cases, the number of options available can be overwhelming. There are so many designs, color schemes, textures and form-factors to choose from. In the end, it's clearly a personal choice. But if you like quality build with a subtle tone and simple, thoughtful design, you cannot go wrong with this case.
It's a Great Case for a Great Price.

Just The Stand I've Been Looking For
on December 18, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
The j5create - Multi-Angle 4K Docking Stand is just what I have been looking for! My primary set up for computing on a desk is to have a large monitor with my laptop on a left-side stand so that its screen matches the height of the monitor. This allows me to use both screens (the smaller laptop screen usually handles my todo lists, calendars, and Evernote). This basic arrangement has served me well for many years.
The main challenge has been finding the right stand for my laptop. I've used a variety of stands with mixed results. Usually, they lose their friction after a few months and my computer begins to slide. Sometimes I just stack books to the desired height, but that's not a real solution.
With the The j5create - Multi-Angle 4K Docking Stand, I think I've finally found the right stand. It is flexible, yet appropriately stiff. Solid, but not bulky. Looks great but not distracting. And the lip eliminates the slipping laptop (or tablet) concerns. As for the mini-dock, that's a bonus for me as I got this for the stand. But now that I have it, I definitely appreciate the matching look and features it adds.
The only caveat I would include is that I've not had it long enough to see if the hinges get week over time.
However, as it stands now (pun intended), I could not be happier.

Nice Package and Price, But Not Useful for Me
on December 18, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
The Go Hearing - Go Prime OTC is definitely a simple hearing aid. It has really good accessories but the aid itself functions very basically. The magnetic chargeable travel case is wonderful. The fact that these don’t take a battery is also a plus. The extra filter replacements and included size adjusters for the ear piece are great. The aid does stick out of the ear a lot more than the photo on the box seems to show. I also think that they need a much better diagram to show how you should place the aid in the ear correctly. (There is a very basic one but it needs a lot more detail.)
I have hearing loss in both ears but only wear a right sided aid due to the severity of my left ear hearing loss. For this reason, I only tested with the right aid. It was easy to set up. There is a green sticker you have to take off of each aid before use and then put it in your ear and push the button for volume control and setting control. (You push the same button quickly for volume and hold it a couple seconds to change the modes.) One note about the instruction manual is that page 4 says “Quick Start Guide” and tells you how to set up but then it does’t tell you until page 11 that you should have charged the aids fully before the first use. I think they should have said that as the first thing on page 4.
When first putting them in the ear, I didn’t notice much change so I turned up the volume. A note about this is that you can only turn the volume up, not down. To make the volume go down you have to turn it all the way up until it double beeps and then the volume resets back at the lowest volume and you can adjust back up from there. That’s really inconvenient. I could definitely hear things get louder but it also made all the sounds have an echo. The sound quality is not good, everything has a robotic or tinny sound. There are three settings for the aid: Normal setting, high frequency mode and low frequency mode. I didn’t notice a huge difference between the first two but I found the low frequency mode to be the most comfortable (though still not great). My voice was echoey in all modes. I tried to see if there was a solution for this and changed out the tips to try fitting the aid in my ear better but nothing helped. The manual even said “ You may hear the internal workings of the device and your own voice may also sound quite loud and hollow. This is normal.” I think that’s definitely problematic. This is not an acceptable standard for hearing. My concern is that those who actually need this aid would be misguided by what an aid can and should do for the average user. The box says “noise and feedback management” but I don’t think it regulates sounds very well.
Final thoughts: I would not recommend these aids. The only possible use I could think of was maybe for occasional one-on-one conversation in a quiet room or perhaps to hear the tv louder while your friend keeps the volume at their own comfort level, but you would have to be okay with the distortions to the sound quality for that to even work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great and Highly Recommended
on December 18, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
This is an amazing printer! It prints super fast and good quality. I’ve had a basic inkjet printer for a few years now but this one makes me feel like I’ve come out of the dark ages and seen the future. Set up was easy. I added paper, and ink. The ink comes in cartridges that you shake before putting into the printer. I then checked the print quality which came out fine. I then had to do a print alignment which was easy, the instructions tell you exactly what to do and I had no problem following them. I didn’t do the fax machine function because I don’t have a land-line. I then had to download an app, make an account and register the printer.
I had some problems setting up the wi-fi with the app so I did it manually through the printer itself but that was easy. Much easier than our other printer.
I printed a document that came out so fast, I was a little in shock. Then I scanned it and opened the app where it immediately transferred. I was then able to text it to someone else in less than a minute. Next, I printed an 8.5x11” photo and the colors and quality were great.
Overall, very happy with this printer and highly recommend.

Solid Standard Garbage Disposal Works and Works
on December 14, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
The InSinkerator - Badger 5 Standard Series 1/2 HP Continuous Feed Garbage Disposal is a solid member of Badger's well-established line of garbage disposals. I've used many Badger disposals over the years and have found them to be solid, well-made, and reliable products.
It's a little hard to evaluate the relative strengths of a 1/2 vs 2/3 HP disposal. This is the standard 1/2 HP model and it confidently handles the full range of normal kitchen waste put through it. You do have to watch out for the odd item that can sometimes cause problems (such as a peach pit). But I've experienced that with the 2/3 HP model as well. Of course you also need to keep utensils out of it as well. Otherwise, it just works and works and works.
If you have not had one installed previously, then you will need to make sure you have power available. You'll also need to make sure you have the right plumbing in place as well. For me, installing it as a replacement for a much older unit was a relative breeze. The hardware, etc. was already in place so it just took some muscle, basic tools, and it was in in no time.
I like products that you can confidently rely on once they've been installed. This is one of them.

Excellent Product for Today's Households
on December 12, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
The Gryphon - AX Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi Router is just what's needed for today's connected households.
I remember when WiFi routers were just a simple signal transmitter. Next they added some extremely basic filtering capabilities - if you could learn how to access the router via a webpage using an I.P. adresss. Then came more sophisticated versions with signal management features that included processors and dual frequencies. More recently, we've seen the continuing development of sophisticated signal processing integrated with smart apps that provide features that are truly useful and practical for today's households.
The Gryphon - AX Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi Router is an excellent example of a modern, state-of-the-art router. If you've never set up a smart router and used an app with it, you may find it an unfamiliar process. However, you'll find the set-up for this unit is simple and easy. Hook everything up, download the app, and follow the instructions.
The primary feature for a Wifi router is to send out a strong signal to a large area. This does that very well. Covered our whole household and the signal was strong and fast.
The secondary features are those found via the smart app. These features are where routers like the Gryphon - AX Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi Router really stand out. The level of control is amazing. You can set up different programs for different sets of devices that are connected. This includes those, such as smart TVs or streaming devices, that need priority access to the signal. It also allows you to determine what hours each device can access the internet, or not. You can also set up different levels of content filtering for specific sets of devices. This is essential for families today. It allows you to put boundaries and safeguards on any device your kids use. Most features are available for free. However, with an optional subscription, you can expand your level of control.
All-in-all, the Gryphon - AX Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi Router is an excellent, and essential, product for today's connected households.

Great Package for the Price
on November 25, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
The Vantop - Snaptain SP7100S Drone is impressive. Especially considering the cost. It's clear that the price for quality drones has come down quite a bit. The drone comes with everything you need in a nice case. For someone, like myself, who does not have much experience with drones, it does take some time and focus to understand the instructions and get the parts to charge and sync with each other. Actually, I had trouble getting it to work no matter what I did at first. Finally emailed support and got a helpful clarification on the sequence of pairing that I was missing.
The tech - both software and mechanical - that goes into a product like this is very impressive for the uninitiated. However, once it's running and you begin to slowly experiment with its features, your confidence grows. As that happens, you find yourself beginning to imagine more and more scenarios where you'd love to experiment with it and see what you can see and film.
I only gave it 4 rather than 5 stars because of the difficulty I had with the initial set up. That may be just me. Otherwise, this seems like a great package for the price.

This is no microwave, toaster oven or broiler…it’s a revolutionary new way to cook. Hugely popular in Asia and available in the US for the first time, the Panasonic HomeCHEF 7-in-1 Compact Oven uniquely uses the power of steam and convection cooking together so you can roast, bake, steam, slow cook, air fry and ferment your way to incredible meals, sides and desserts. With combination cooking, steam insures consistently juicy, tender melt-in-your-mouth insides while convection delivers perfectly brown, crispy outsides. What would normally require 2-3 different processes can now be done in 1…plus, the enclosed space means less nutrients escape than with stovetop cooking. The HomeCHEF 7-in-1 is large enough to fit a whole chicken or a dozen muffins, yet small enough to outperform a traditional oven in both accuracy and speed. The icing on the (deliciously baked) cake? With steam you can sanitize everything from utensils to baby bottles, plus prep the inside cavity for easy wipe-and-go cleanup.

Good for All-in-One - Slightly Weak as Air Fryer
on November 14, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
We opened the box and made sure to put the unit somewhere where there was space all around it as instructions say it needs at least 8 inches of space above it and a couple inches around the sides. I read over the warnings and initial set up which was pretty easy and basic. Then I decided to make frozen pizza so I used the arrow buttons to find the regular convection bake. Super easy. For the pizza I needed to preheat. When it’s done pre-heating it does three kind of quiet beeps and then you have to pretty quickly put the food in or else it will turn off. If you wait for the beeps and put the food in, then you can set the time for how long you want your food to cook. Note that after you put the time in you need to press start again or it won’t cook. I didn’t do that at first and I was just sitting there wondering why the timer wasn’t changing. Once the time is set, it is adjustable so you can have more time or less time if you need. There is a light that stays on while it is cooking which is nice so I can see the food to see whether it is done or not.
I cooked frozen curly fries twice with air fry.
Again I forgot to press start after I adjusted the time for the fries. I do feel like the air fryer takes a bit longer to cook items than expected.
Again I forgot to press start after I adjusted the time for the fries. I do feel like the air fryer takes a bit longer to cook items than expected.
I think it is a good machine overall And it is easy to use.
As far as recommending it to a friend, I would recommend it for someone who is looking for an all-in-one unit with only occasional air-fry usage.

InSinkerator Hits a Home Run - Again
on November 14, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
The InSinkerator - Badger 5XP is just what you'd expect from this brand. Solid, powerful, and the setup was straightforward. The instructions were helpful and the Quick Lock feature makes it extremely simple to install when replacing a previous InSinkerator garbage disposal. This feature requires you to stay within the brand, but with the reliability record of these units, I am not complaining.
It comes with the garbage disposer, flange, stopper, assembly components, Quick Lock components, power cord and user's manual. The badger 5XP also offers a 4-year 'We Come to You' In-Home Service Warranty - a nice addition that enhances your confidence in the product.
It is noticeably quieter than previous versions we've had. That's not a small thing when you use it regularly every day.
We recently spent most of a year in Canada and were surprised to discover that garbage disposals are not standard in most homes there. This made coming back to a brand new, upgraded, InSinkerator all that more sweet.
Not really a lot more to say. It does what it should - and does it very well and reliably.

Simply Does What It Promises - Very Well
on November 6, 2022
Posted by: JBCTECH
The Airthings - View Radon Battery Wi-Fi Smart Radon/Humidity/Temperature Sensor is one of those products that just does what it promises. It promises to give you accurate continuous readings of your temperature, humidity, and radon levels - and that's what it does.
You do need to download the app and register an account in order to access the information. It gives immediate readings, though it indicates that it takes a month before you get the full benefit of the comparative reports.
I would assume the main selling point is the Radon readings as that is an important health issue. It offers peace of mind for those who have concerns. I have to admit it's nice to know that, for us, the levels are minimal.
The setup was simple, easy and relatively short. A nice addition is the fact that batteries are included. The unit can also run off a USB charger.
Bottom-line: If you're looking for a good, flexible way to monitor Radon, Humidity, or Temperature, you'll be pleased with this product.

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.
