Keep extra eyes on the road with this dash camera
on October 18, 2022
Posted by: DSPARKA
This is my first dash camera that allows me to capture different views on the same screen. It’s made easy to switch between the cameras and focus on what I’m interested in.
Installation:
Install can be very easy or time consuming depending on how you want it to look in the end. The reason I say that is because setup is as easy as plug and play. The time consuming part is getting the wire hidden neatly and not damaging your vehicle in the process. A small tool is available in the package to help tuck the wires in.
Display:
Every image is displayed beautifully on the 4K screen. I can make out the recordings of anytime of the day since this has night vision. The importance of having clear views is a high priority especially if involved in an accident.
Highlights:
Being able to record the front, back and inside the car is great. It’s all integrated so the convenience is nice.
4K quality recording comes handy when you need it. Some people are not honest and the Rexing dash camera is a good witness to sort out any confusion.
Watching all 3 views all together in one screen.
My experience with the Rexing dash camera is so far good. The size is right and it does what I expected of it. Financially I think it’s something that is a great investment for possible issues like accidents. I hope the Rexing holds up on quality and continues to provide me with a piece of mind when I’m driving and recording. It’s something I would recommend to people looking for a dash cam.
The only thing I would change so far is the adhesive mount because removing it might be difficult.

Outstanding Appliance To Have At Home
on October 10, 2022
Posted by: DSPARKA
This appliance is a real way of bringing a coffee shop to my kitchen. It looks great on the counter but I did have to rearrange the other appliances. I get most people might not have a kitchen with a lot of counter space and the DeLonghi La Specialista Arte is compact for all it do. If someone is a daily coffee drinker, this will make financial sense and pay for itself in a few months.
Contents in the box:
The La Specialista Arte is packaged with everything I need to get started except for the coffee. FYI remember to buy coffee beans because it grinds coffee beans.

Installing La Specialista Arte:
It is very important to read the instructions manual. It is easy if you follow the directions step by step to get familiar with the espresso machine. I honestly felt overwhelmed when I took everything out the box because I thought it would be complicated. I left all my settings on default to start off and I tweaked it after until I figure out what’s best for me.
Something that’s included is the water test. I did the test and find out that my water hardness was medium. The La Specialista has a setting for soft, medium and hard water hardness. Not having the right hardness setting will affect the taste of your coffee.
Leave a good amount of counter space for the La Specialista Arte so everything is readily available for convenience of brewing your espresso.

Using the La Specialista Arte:
I don’t think I can be as simple as the instructions provided. DeLonghi included a quick guide that list each step with a picture illustration. This made using it so easy, I decided to leave it on top of the La Specialista Arte for future reference. Now that I have my settings set all I do now is grind, tamper, brew, froth and clean the machine with a wet cloth.

I’m happy to be able to make myself or someone a luxury drink when they come over. I think having something like the DeLonghi La Specialista Arte in my home is more inviting and makes guests feel welcomed. I absolutely recommend this espresso machine and I can only imagine what they are working on for the next upgrade.

Great Linksys Hydra 6 Router!
on September 3, 2022
Posted by: DSPARKA
As technology advances, Linksys continues to advance their products. I honestly wasn’t too happy with my last router and this Hydra 6 was starting to make me feel good. After a few days of using it I started getting issues but I will give more details as I dive more into it.
Installation:
The Hydra 6 is easy to install using the Linksys app. I can also setup using a computer but I chose the mobile app. The app walk you through the installation steps with picture illustration to make it easy for everyone.
Linksys App:
The app has a cool and user friendly during my 1st day of use. Sometimes when launching the app it takes about a minute or so on the “Getting router settings” screen. When I do get pass it, I was able to customize just about everything from parental control, priority to certain devices, naming and selecting an icon for each connected device. A very nice feature was the speed test that is on the home screen of the app. I was happy with my initial experience using app.
Day 2 and 3 of Linksys App:
I was unable to use the app the way it was intended. It allows me to login but I don’t see my router or my devices connected to the Hydra 6. I think it’s important to be honest about this important issue because I look for routers with an app and a lot of people might be looking for this feature. To correct the problem a software update can be done if the developers decide to update.
Hydra 6 internet connection:
The Hydra 6 is giving me uninterrupted connection speeds that are more than I’m paying for. I’m stoked about this and I can’t believe the difference compared to my old router. I have 26 devices connected and no issues with connectivity or speed as of today.
Quality:
As far as build quality I think the Hydra 6 is well constructed. It has holes just about everywhere on it to help with airflow. I do like the vertical standing routers better because that saves a little space on my desk but if this works better for my everyday devices I’ll be happy.
It advertises that it covers 2000 square feet and I think that’s accurate because even when I’m outside my house I’m still connected to the wifi.
I see the Hydra 6 being a router that has the capability of being a great and affordable for just about anyone if they do software updates that fixes the issues and bugs. I’m willing to wait to see what they have coming to improve.

PS5’s newest companion is the Inzone H7.
on August 14, 2022
Posted by: DSPARKA
Sony Headphone
I have been searching for a perfect set of gaming headphones and Sony might of done it.
I have been searching for a perfect set of gaming headphones and Sony might of done it.
In the environmental friendly box I received:
USB transceiver, INZONE H7 headset, USB-C charging cable, and warranty information.
USB transceiver, INZONE H7 headset, USB-C charging cable, and warranty information.
Installing these headphones is very easy. I connected the USB transceiver to one of the ports on the back of my PS5. Make sure you have the switch on the USB transceiver on PS5 before installing. I then installed the USB-C charging cable to the front USB of my PS5. This same charging cable can charge your remote so you can rotate what need’s charge.
From there I turned on my H7 headset and PS5 and they paired automatically. Once paired I went to the PS5 sound audio menu and set my preferences.
From there I turned on my H7 headset and PS5 and they paired automatically. Once paired I went to the PS5 sound audio menu and set my preferences.
Sound quality is incredibly good on the H7 headset. They are made with the PS5 in mind and they integrate well together. Adjustments you make on the headset are sent to the screen for you to see visually and I think that’s a good thing in case I accidentally push a button. No issues with chatting on the H7 headset. I’m heard loud and clear. The gaming sound effects are so good I can hear the environment like it’s intended by the developers. The trees, birds, fire burning all sounds better with the H7 headset.
The spatial audio that Sony advertises is good but so far I haven’t experienced it to be as good as they promoted. In example hearing enemy movements behind walls. Maybe a few more adjustments or updates but for now I get a better sound quality headset that is made for my PS5 compared to my old gaming headset.

Comfort is a big factor for gaming headsets and the H7 INZONE is comfortable for hours. Every material from the H7 headset are soft and smooth. Having the H7 headset wireless adds to comfort because of the extra freedom of movement. The H7 headset are lightweight and some might confuse that for poor quality but I don’t think they are bad quality. I suggest to be careful because it is a new product and it might not be able to handle some abuse. I will not be throwing around $300 headsets so that will not be an issue for me.
Storing the H7 headset when not using or charging is something that Sony I don’t think thought about. Nothing is included for it. No case, no stand, and no dust bag. See my pictures and see my setup to help with a temporary solution if you have not already come up with something better.
The H7 headset is my new favorite gaming headset. They sound great and compliment my PS5 very well. I think it should be a PS5 bundle option.

Ecobee better in my opinion but so far works well
on May 31, 2022
Posted by: DSPARKA
Certainly a good looking sleek thermostat that not only looks smart, it will compliment just about any room you install it in. The touchscreen is fluid to your touch without skipping a beat. In the box this is what I received: thermostat, screws set, wall plate kit, power kit, welcome information booklet and labels.
DIY installation:
My installation was not easy and I’m an electrician but I don’t think it should stop anyone interested to not buy it. Just do more research to check compatibility (ecobee have a link https://www.ecobee.com/compatibility), take pictures of your current thermostat wiring and ask questions. After several attempts of getting my new ecobee enhanced thermostat to work with my central air unit I decided to reach out for help using the chat feature.
The problem I was having was warm air was blowing when I had the temperature on cool. The representative suggested I try his wiring diagram which I tried but since it was the same I received the same results. He then asked me for information on my air handler wiring. I and told me I might have to reconfigure the ecobee thermostat. I checked the settings and voila. There it was a reconfiguration screen. My system and thermostat appears to be working properly now. I do have to thank the different representatives that helped especially during a holiday weekend.

ecobee enhanced thermostat:
It is sleek and it sense when you are in the room to make sure the temperature is set to your comfort settings. I do plan on adding a smart sensor to my bedroom so it can possibly regulate the temperature better. My upstairs is usually warmer than downstairs and the ecobee might be the right solution to keep the temperature similar throughout my home.
ecobee App:
The ecobee app is easy to use and I was able to sync it with my thermostat in a few minutes. Using the app I can adjust the temperature from anywhere. I’m able to set schedules and my ideal comfort level. Sometimes when I open the app it takes a moment to populate the information but I’m not sure why it hesitate.
Not only can I use the ecobee app to adjust the ecobee enhance thermostat, I can use HomeKit and my Google assistant.

Overall I like the ecobee enhance thermostat. I think for the extra money get the premium since it is a better value with the added features. I also want 1 smart sensor but it is only sold in a 2 pack. The price of a 2 pack is about 40% of the premium price.
I can see me going away for a few days and know that the ecobee thermostat will do it’s job while I’m on vacation. I’m curious to see how the monthly report will be compared to my older thermostat by another brand. So far this is only a minor upgrade to what I was use to but I get excited with new technology. The HomeKit integration is perfect and it allows me to enjoy my experience more when making quick changes away from the thermostat.
So to sum it up I think the installation could easier and the smartsensor should be included with the ecobee enhance take the price down for the smart sensor or have a price for 1 smart sensor.

Roomba is a true robot vacuum leader
on December 9, 2021
Posted by: DSPARKA
from Pennsylvania
Package Arrival:
The i6 iRobot vacuum was neatly and packaged with enough protection to make it to my doorstep without any damages. Inside contents was simply the i6 iRobot vacuum, the docking station, power cable and safety instructions. It was basically just what I needed to get the iRobot vacuum setup before I downloaded the iRobot home app.
Setup:
All I did was plug the docking station where I wanted and placed the i6 iRobot on the station to charge it. After I download the app I opened it and the instructions to complete the setup was given step by step using the app. I had the connection to my home wifi quickly and a quick update after my i6 iRobot was connected to the internet.
iRobot 1st Run:
I personally think the first run should be a mapping run and later follow up with a clean run. The mapping run will help the i6 iRobot when it’s navigating through your home. I had to do 2 map runs to have a great map for my robot vacuum to use. The i6 by iRobot continues to learn as it cleans.
Navigate:
The i6 iRobot still bumps into the wall and furniture so I already have plenty of scuff marks on my shiny new robot vacuum. I do have to say it moves around the rooms better than my other company robot vacuum.
iRobot App:
The app is also simple to use and allows me to do many changes that will help with my cleaning.
In the app I can set my cleaning schedule(s) but I choose to run the robot vacuum when I want and not by a schedule.
I can also edit the map and name the rooms. This comes handy for when I want to use my Google assistant to command cleaning to a specific room/location.
Cleaning history is available in the app and can be used differently to determine how to set cleaning schedules. I have pets or if it’s pollen season I will have the vacuum run more often than most people.
Cleaning Results:
The i6 iRobot pick up a lot of dirt and pet hairs. It clean close to the wall and corners so do expect the scuffs on the bumpers.
Suggestion for iRobot:
I think including a starter kit that have an extra brush and filter for your customers. I know I would of been happy to see a bonus that will be useful after a few months.
My 2 Sense:
iRobot is one of the original robot vacuum creators and you can tell they are ahead of the competition. I like that the i6 is built to accept updates to use future features. Now how long will iRobot stand behind that I don’t know. Overall I have a great vacuum by iRobot and it really cleanup. Check out the pictures I posted.

Mavic 3 The Sky Is The Limit
on November 12, 2021
Posted by: DSPARKA
from Pennsylvania
My expectations were very high coming to experience the DJI Mavic 3 because of the brand recognition. DJI is known for having top of the line drones and I now get to put the Mavic 3 to the test.
I have the “Fly More Combo” and it’s loaded with everything to keep you flying the drone for hours.
The first thing I did was the unboxing and find the quick start guide to get started. I had the drone battery and remote controller both plugged in to charge. It took me about 2 hours waiting for a full charge. While I was waiting I downloaded the DJI Fly app to watch tutorials, read the manual and other helpful things within the app to get me familiar with the Mavic 3.
For anyone new to flying a drone you will need to visit the FAA website to register or add your new small aircraft. There is also information on how to take The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST) and obtain your free certificate.
So now I turn on my Mavic 3 and remote control to link them together. After a few seconds I connect my phone with the included cable to have the camera view, flight status and many more features.
Fly Time:
The Mavic 3 is capable of getting a range of about 9 miles away from the remote. Honestly it’s good to know but I will not be pushing it to get 9 miles range because it will be out of my sight.
I honestly didn’t like the look of the remote but as I hold it I think it fits nice and that’s more important than the looks. Everything for the remote is all stored away in designated areas on the remote control.
With my years of experience flying drones I think the Mavic 3 was easy to operate. I was ripping the air with speed and different maneuvers. The Mavic 3 reacted quickly to everything I command on the remote. I was flying for about an hour and since it started getting dark I noticed the led lights on the bottom of the drone which gave a daylight spotlight to help with my landing.
The Mavic 3 is phenomenal when handling. The “Fly More” combo will give you about 3 hours of flying. I’m getting closer to an hour for each fully charged battery. With high winds I’m sure that will decrease but that’s impressive.
Unhappy moment:
I live a few miles from an airport so I found out that my Mavic wouldn’t even take off. I don’t like the fact that DJI made an absolute brick of the Mavic 3 because of the airport. I understand safety but I think DJI could of limit how high it goes up and display a notification so the operator understands why. I cannot lower my rating because the Mavic 3 is really a fun drone while looking so cool. When I’m flying I get safety features such as the obstacle avoidance which is nice. I get a few bystanders that are amazed of what it can do and usually ask me plenty of questions every time I take it out.
This are some shortcomings I know DJI can address in future updates and will make this more enjoyable.
I like taking pictures of landscapes and nature but with restrictions I cannot always take advantage of all the opportunities. When I’m able to I get fantastic pictures like the attachments that I included in my review. My pictures were in beyond 4k quality even when I zoomed in the pictures were beautiful. Some future updates for camera features are also promised for January 2022.
I don’t like to be repetitive and boring but I really like the Mavic 3 and I’m sure I will get many more people that have the same feeling.

While I was waiting I downloaded the DJI Fly app to watch tutorials, read the manual and other helpful things within the app to get me familiar with the Mavic 3.
For anyone new to flying a drone you will need to visit the FAA website to register or add your new small aircraft. There is also information on how to take The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST) and obtain your free certificate.
So now I turn on my Mavic 3 and remote control to link them together. After a few seconds I connect my phone with the included cable to have the camera view, flight status and many more features.
Fly Time:
The Mavic 3 is capable of getting a range of about 9 miles away from the remote. Honestly it’s good to know but I will not be pushing it to get 9 miles range because it will be out of my sight.
I honestly didn’t like the look of the remote but as I hold it I think it fits nice and that’s more important than the looks. Everything for the remote is all stored away in designated areas on the remote control.
With my years of experience flying drones I think the Mavic 3 was easy to operate. I was ripping the air with speed and different maneuvers. The Mavic 3 reacted quickly to everything I command on the remote. I was flying for about an hour and since it started getting dark I noticed the led lights on the bottom of the drone which gave a daylight spotlight to help with my landing.
The Mavic 3 is phenomenal when handling. The “Fly More” combo will give you about 3 hours of flying. I’m getting closer to an hour for each fully charged battery. With high winds I’m sure that will decrease but that’s impressive.
Unhappy moment:
I live a few miles from an airport so I found out that my Mavic wouldn’t even take off. I don’t like the fact that DJI made an absolute brick of the Mavic 3 because of the airport. I understand safety but I think DJI could of limit how high it goes up and display a notification so the operator understands why. I cannot lower my rating because the Mavic 3 is really a fun drone while looking so cool. When I’m flying I get safety features such as the obstacle avoidance which is nice. I get a few bystanders that are amazed of what it can do and usually ask me plenty of questions every time I take it out.
This are some shortcomings I know DJI can address in future updates and will make this more enjoyable.
I like taking pictures of landscapes and nature but with restrictions I cannot always take advantage of all the opportunities. When I’m able to I get fantastic pictures like the attachments that I included in my review. My pictures were in beyond 4k quality even when I zoomed in the pictures were beautiful. Some future updates for camera features are also promised for January 2022.
I don’t like to be repetitive and boring but I really like the Mavic 3 and I’m sure I will get many more people that have the same feeling.

The Perfect Sous Chef

I was first introduced to the Ninja Foodi 3 years ago and I use it at least once a day. It held up flawlessly after many cooked meals.
Now I’m hoping this new Ninja Foodi will be better and last just as long.
So the Ninja Foodi 2021 has a more modernized look and I must say it looks good on my kitchen counter. For the original Ninja Foodi 2018 owners the number one thing that stands out is that the 2021 version only have one lid. That make things much easier and convenient because I don’t have to worry about getting the pressure lid anymore.
The smart lid is a game changer. 3 slide options and it intelligently adjust the smart lid to activate the correct lid function. I can do just about anything with my Ninja Foodi and I’m not exaggerating. Eliminating clutter from kitchen counters should be easier if the Ninja Foodi is present. It pressure cook, slow cook, bake, air fry, steam, sauté and more. Since the Ninja community is now 3 years old a bunch of recipes are online to help with deliciousness. To start off a QR code is placed on the Ninja Foodi so a quick scan with a smartphone will get you started.
Cooking time is also quicker using the Ninja Foodi. I really like the dial selector because it pinpoint my cooking time and temperature for better cooking.
This is something that everyone should own in a kitchen.

Compact Size With Big Potential

Setup and Appearance:
I was impressed on how easy it was to setup the new Linksys E9450 router. I took it out the box and followed the simple instructions. All I did was transferred my Ethernet cables to my new router and the few steps and I had my WiFi up and running.
The only issue I’m having is that I can’t connect the E9450 router to the Linksys app. It’s not finding the router and I don’t know why. I did reset and started the setup installation twice and same issue with the app not finding the new router to connect and use the app. The internet does work so I will wait to see if an update will fix the problem. For now I cannot give any feedback on the app features for the E9450 router.
FYI if you want to keep all of your devices connected to the same network keep your WiFi name and password the same. I chose to change it but things could of been quicker if I took that route.

What I like about the new router:
-It is sleek and does save space on my desk.
-The 4 Ethernet ports are just enough for what I need.
-The range is great because I can pick up my WiFi signal from my driveway (covers approximately 2800 square feet) and with my older router I could never get that.
-After several speed tests I continue to get more speed than what I’m paying for. I will be so happy if this router continues to outperform.
-The guest access is great because I don’t have to share my main password with anyone.
-The simple but convenient light indicators are great to easily see if troubleshooting.
-2.4 or 5GHz speed option let me easily choose when adding my WiFi devices
-The parental feature is also good for parents. I think it would be a big deal for me if I have kids using my internet.
What I don’t like:
-The Linksys app is not allowing me to link my new router which is keeping me from enjoying all the benefits of the app.

My final thoughts:
I was using the EA7500 before this new E9450 and I was overall happy. I wanted something that would take full capability of my network speed while using the many devices I have. So far the E9450 is doing great and I can’t wait to hopefully getting it linked to the Linksys app.

INTRO:
I have been seeing Eufy cameras in stores and online for a while now but I never considered them. That was a mistake because I’m loving the Eufy camera I now have. This is by far the best video quality I have ever seen in a security system.
I have a few different brands to compare but I’ll get to reviewing this Eufy Security Floodlight Cam Pro 2k.

INSTALLATION:
Everything from wire nuts to hardware was included in the box and detailed instructions was also in the box. After downloading the Eufy Security app you will also find the installation guide to help. As an Electrician I think this is convenient to have because it helped me install the Eufy Security Floodlight Cam Pro the way the manufacturer intended.
I had everything installed after reading the instructions in under 20 minutes.
*To make installation easier be sure to use the included USB to setup your camera before you mount it.

APP:
The app is simple and straight forward. All I did was sign up and followed the prompts to add the camera to the app.
You will be able to view the live video and pan it 360 degrees. Your recorded images will be in 2k for crisp and clear playback. I can turn on the lights or view the live feed using Google. In the app settings I customized the sensitivity of the camera’s motion detections and more. The bright LED lights can be adjusted and also turn on and off from dusk to dawn.

RECOMMENDED FEATURES:
I really like:
The tracking feature. Once it finds the moving object it follows and record until it’s out of view.
I also like the dusk to dawn feature for the lights. I will always have light when it’s needed. I can also change it to motion if I need it. All can be set on the app on my phone.
