The Basics, the tooth brush is comfortable and does a great job on the teeth. You can connect it to your phone and use the app to track progress and get feedback on brushing. No complaints on this toothbrush other than the cost. If you like the tech part, this will be great.

Poor Sound Quality
on May 7, 2021
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
The reason I gave this one star is because I couldn't give it no stars. The microphone is awful. People can't hear you. You sound muffled and faint. Words cut out at the beginning or end of a sentence. Don't waste your money on this.

Great for trimming and creating lines
on April 15, 2021
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
This product is pretty heavy duty. It makes great lines and trims your head well. Don't use it elsewhere on you body as it will leave it looking like it was whipped with a stick. This is not a body trimmer. The purpose was vague in the description which is why I give it three stars. .

Deep. Loud. And immersive, too. The SoundLink Revolve II Bluetooth speaker delivers true 360° sound for consistent, uniform coverage. Place it in the center of the room to give everyone the same experience. Or set it near a wall and sound will radiate and reflect around the room, immersing you in that same feeling you felt at your favorite show. The tapered cylindrical shape makes this wireless speaker easy to grab and go, while a durable aluminum body provides worry-free protection. And it’s water resistant so you can keep the party going, even if it starts to rain. The rechargeable, lithium-ion battery plays up to 13 hours — for full-day listening. Voice prompts talk you through Bluetooth pairing, and there’s a built-in speakerphone for calls. Use the Bose Connect app to pair two SoundLink speakers for Stereo or Party Mode. The app also helps you manage your devices, unlock features, and access future updates. Available in Triple Black or Luxe Silver.

Best sounding speaker
on March 20, 2021
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I have several blue tooth speakers I never expected the rich and deep sound quality that came from this speaker. It is truly amazing. There is an app that installs on your phone making connectivity easy to manage. What I like about the phone app is access to the owners manual and easy troubleshooting.

Charger-friendly: Comply tips are specially designed to fit in most wireless charging cases without interfering with charging. Extra Protection: Built-in TechDefender guard protects your earbuds' sound port from debris, wax and sweat.

I replaced my AirPod tips with the foam insert. I found the rubber irritating. The foam is more comfortable. It came with three pairs. Initial impression is highly favorable.

Compact, smooth, and functional
on January 16, 2021
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
This dumbbell set is very easy to use. On the LED screen, you select your weight in set increments and the weights are connected. Wights range form 8-50 pounds. They slide in and out of the base very smoothly. You get the function of multiple dumbbells in one device saving space. There is an app that gives you a way to track exercises and learn new ones. The base does not have to be plugged in at all times, it is rechargeable. It's a great complement to my workout room. One advice when setting up, regardless of the battery level, plug it in. It ships in sleep mode and must be activated. I spent 20 minutes figuring that out and their web site explained this. No issues using these so far.

Perfect upgrade to old timers
on November 11, 2020
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I have used WEMO switches in the past and really like the features they offer. This brings the great benefits of WEMO switches to the outdoor. Old timers you had to guess when it would get dark and readjust as days get shorter and longer. Other options of dawn to dusk operation isn't what I was looking for as I didn't want lights on all night. You can program this to come on at dusk and turn off at a set time. Better yet, knowing that sometimes dusk is too early, you can program it to come in a set time after dusk. I typically use 10 minutes after dusk. Connects to the WEMO app, and/or Alexa for more control options. You simply tell it how you want it to function and it does.

Great Router, Easy Setup
on November 8, 2020
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I got the Eero to replace a popular mesh router I was previously using. This was, by far, the easiest router I have ever set up. I have FIOS so I basically use it for wifi access with my current gateway but setup was super easy and quick. All you have to do is download the app and follow the directions. It guides you through the process. Setup took less than 15 minutes. Another great feature is the small compact size of the units. They blend in much better than my previous one. The app give you your internet speed and can alert you when devices connect.. Additionally, it links with Alexa and connects to all you smart devices. It has basic features like a guest network that you would expect. Two petty issues I have, it doesn't have a web interface and they try to sell you a security subscription. You have to use a smart device and only one can be logged in at a time. I prefer using my computer to make adjustments but it is rare adjustments are needed. I like this much better than the other brands I have used in the past and would strongly recommend.

Great Computer-4.8 stars
on November 3, 2020
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
Initial thoughts on this computer is very positive. Screen is clear and displays close to the edge making it more compact. Pretty fast computer with fast boot up times. Keyboard keys feel really good when typing. Finger print log in is a great feature. Only one reason I don't give it 5 start. I noticed it had a traditional power cord/jack. Wondering why they didn't convert to USB-C. I noticed the USB-C had the power symbol and plugged in my former HP. adapter into the USB-C port and it charges. SO why did they use a traditional port? My guess is there is only one USB-C port and it would be used for power only if they didn't use an old school power adapter. My opinion, too many traditional usb ports and not enough usb-c ports. Certainly not a deal breaker and these are the only cons to this computer. Otherwise, I love the computer.

Do these come with extra inserts? I love the cone type insert that seems to fit my ears better. They were on the old wired beats by Dre and then the pair that went around you neck and were magnetic.

they come with different size inserts

Is the tablet portion of the laptop detachable like a 2 in 1? or is it attached like a normal laptop?

It doesn't detach but it pivots differently. It's not flimsy and it swings from the center. Hard to expaling but it gives you some really different setting versus the ones that just swing at the hinge.

Does this Wemo WiFi smart plug-outdoor, connect to a mesh WiFi system. I have some Wemo smart mini plugs thatonly connect to 2 ghz routers. The Mesh system I have doesn’t distinguish between 2 and 5 ghz bands, so the Wemo mini plugs do not connect my wifi

I have mine on a mesh system but that doesn't mean it will work on yours. It depends on the brand. While I cant see it not working, I can't account for every type of router.

I actually have 3 questions. Is this device gfi protected? Can I control each outlet separately? I’ve yet to see a straight answer on that question What are the current and temperature ratings for the device?

It is not a GFI outlet. Technically, outlets outside should be GFI by code negating the need for this to be GFI. You cannot control the outlets independent of each other.. Both are either on or off and controlled together as a pair. .

Upgrade your movie experiences with this 2.0-channel LG sound bar speaker kit. It produces 140W of power to blare your favorite song or movie, and it's wireless-enabled to eliminate the need for cables for a clean, uncluttered look.
 

Can I use existing speakers wires in my walls and connect via junction box to the the wires in the LG box to power them?

If I understand you correct, yes. You need to connect wires from the black box to each of the two speakers. It shouldn't matter what wire you use. The black box wirelessly syncs with the power bar so it can be on the other side of the room.
