Cute Amiibo - love/hate relationship

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my first Amiibo. I hate that nintendo makes you buy these things to enhance game play. However, after purchasing it, I love the look of it. It's cute and looks great on my desk. I'm currently looking for more.

Love the switch...even more with Pro Controller
on January 1, 2018
Posted by: mdettmer01

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this pro controller as an open box item from Best Buy. It works flawlessly. I have some problems if I use the JoyCons from further and 10 feet. I called Nintendo and they said that they are designed to be used in very close proximity to the switch. I didn't like that answer. The pro controller doesn't have any of these issues. Plus it fits my hands better.

Reliable power keeps pc running!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have a 750 watt power supply in a custom build. If I'm not doing something intensive while the power goes out, this APC power backup will keep my computer running for several minutes. I have several power outages that last about 2 mins. I haven't tested it to see how long it will actually provide power, but the software that came with the APC says I could get 60 mins. Small foot print as far as backups go. I like that the batteries can be replaced so you don't throw the whole thing in the trash.

Replace failing ASUS ac66u
on November 7, 2016
Posted by: mdettmer01
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm crossing my fingers that this router will last longer than the ASUS ac66u that I replaced this with. So far so good. Range and setup were a breeze. Even named the network name to the ASUS name and used the same password. All devices connected immediately without having to set them all back up again.

I bought this to replace 2 previously failing ASUS routers. ASUS routers have been my go to router in the past. After 2 routers with similar problems, I got frustrated and paid the bloated price for the Apple router. Well it turns out to be worth the money. Haven't had a problem since.

Great RAM at a resonable price.

This ram works perfectly for my aging system. It may not be the biggest and the best but it definitely provided the performance boost I needed. Upgraded from 2 to 8 Gigs on a Windows 7 system.

Great Photo Printer - little slow.
on June 26, 2016
Posted by: mdettmer01
Verified Purchase:Yes
I ordered this printer at the recommendation of Canon support when my old Canon mx850 died. The mx850 was an amazing printer. This one does just as good a job as my old printer except that it is quite a bit slower. I like the 2 cartridge trays for convenience. I'd recommend this printer for printing pictures on canon photo plus paper. Does a way better job then I've seen with HP paper and printers.

Nice Wifi thermostat for the price.
on April 10, 2016
Posted by: mdettmer01
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wifi thermostats usually have a higher price then the Honeywell wifi 7 day programmable thermostat. It was extremely easy to setup and works flawlessly using my Samsung S5 mobile device from anywhere I have data or wifi signal. I have even combined it with amazon alexa, although at the time of this review, I feel amazon alexa integration with this product is limited. You can only set the temperature to a specified degree. You can't incrementally raise or lower the temp.
Note: This product requires a 'C' wire that is used to power the thermostat. Consult your current setup before purchasing.

Is there any technical skill involved in installation? Is is as simple as plugging it in and turning it on?

There isn't any technical skill really. The unit comes with the batteries installed backwards so that they aren't activated until you get the unit. You have to take the back cover off, remove the batteries, remove a plastic film from the battery, put the batteries back in. There is a flyer to guide you. Also the back of the unit has 2 types of outlets. One type uses the battery backup, the other is just a power pass through that won't have battery backup. They are clearly marked. You shouldn't have a problem.

There is software that is available to optimize the unit and monitor the status but it is completely optional.
