This Smart Lock was so easy to install. If you have a standard deadbolt in your door, and almost every home does, this lock will fit. You simply remove your old lock and replace it with this one.
If you want to meet the BHMA Grade 2 standard, you can also install a strengthened strike plate on the door frame, which is also included in the box. I finished the initial installation using my existing strike plate and can come back later to install the reinforced one.
When you have installed the lock, you must install the eufy Security software app on your iPhone or Android, and pair the lock with your phone. Be prepared to register for a username and password on the app, with all the usual confirmatory emails for security purposes. You then can add this device to the software and configure it using the step by step set up on the software.
I ran into one glitch and had to call eufy Security support. The friendly rep got me up and running quickly. During the process of pairing Bluetooth, the eufy software instructed the user to wait for a voice prompt from the small speaker on the side of the interior assembly before proceeding. I did not get the prompt, and you had to tic a box on the software indicating that you heard the voice prompt before you could proceed to the next step. I was instructed to ignore that prompt and tic the box anyway, and when I did, the software prompted me to enter a PIN for the font keypad and proceeded to fully configure the device for the eufy Security software. After finishing the setup, I was prompted to download a software update and did so.
The lock has been a joy to use. You can unlock from the outside using the keypad, the supplied key, or from your smartphone using the eufy Security app. If you have other eufy Security devices, this lock works with them through the software. If you are conversing with someone through the video doorbell, you can press a button in the eufy software to unlock the door and let them in without having to leave the app.
If you want to do so, you can set up the lock to work with Alexa or the Google voice assistant to unlock the door.
Easy, simple security. Highly recommended!

Solving a problem I didn't know I had

This Bedgear sheet set was the perfect color for our queen size bed and we were anxious to try them out. They are very soft and pleasant to the touch, and the fitted sheet acutally has extra- strong elastic straps to hold it in place on the mattress pad.
I have been using them for a couple of weeks, and have been extra comfortable under the covers during the evaluation. Until I read the product description, I had never heard of a moisture wicking sheet. All I can say is that they must work. I have slept in total comfort with no sweating or any urge to get out from underneath the covers.
I am the tester here, but my wife heartily concurs. These sheets are a great investment for long term comfort and a very pleasant sleeping experience. Well done, Bedgear!

We have used this blender for several important kitchen functions in the past several days, and have been impressed by its power and speed.

The best bedroom Smart Clock just got even better. The Lenovo Smart Clock Gen 2 with Wireless Charging Dock keeps your nightstand clutter free. Charge up to two additional devices at once: your phone (using the wireless dock) and another accessory, like a smart watch (using the USB port). The 4“ color touchscreen showcases the time, weather and your family photos with a choice of customizable clock faces or check in on your smart cameras feeds before bed. Enhanced with a built-in nightlight when docked, the light is just bright enough to illuminate your way without waking your partner. With multiroom audio, you can add your Lenovo Smart Clock Gen 2 to a speaker group and play media across multiple devices and rooms.

Lenovo redesigned its original Smart Clock with a few major changes and some minor ones as well, and now gives us the Smart Clock 2. Like the original, you will use it every day and never think about it. It is not built to dazzle. It’s built to serve, and it does its job well.
The configuration of the clock is similar, but different from the original. The screen is raised up about an inch and the speakers fire forward. The screen is just a little smaller, but it is hardly noticeable. This is an audio centric device. I think the front spacing speakers have improved clarity. Otherwise, the surround materials seem to be like the original: a gray, coarse fabric that makes the device easy to pick up and manipulate. The only visible controls on the phone are the plus and minus symbols on top which control volume. Other controls are available with the swipe of a finger on the screen.
You will be up and running in minutes. Plug in the clock and you will be guided through the process of setting up the device using the Google home app. Select a clock face. Decide whether you want to set up an alarm, and you are set. The alarm can be the default wake up or you can choose a You Tube Music song of your choice. You can repeat the alarm or set up a single instance. Tell Google what you want to hear, or when you want to set an alarm. Think of this device as a smart speaker and morning information center. You can also view family pictures, but don’t expect to watch videos- there are other products for that. You can also ask Google for a plethora of other audio services like weather or news.
My favorite new feature is the wireless charging dock. It cradles the Smart clock and charges up your device while you sleep. I had never used wireless charging with my iPhone before, but it works perfectly with the dock. Lay the iPhone down on its sweet spot and a white surround led on the dock lights up to let you know you have hit it. I am now using this dock exclusively to top up my iPhone every night. There is also a USB-A port on the back of the dock if you don’t want to charge wirelessly and want to use your device’s own charging cord. One caveat- don’t expect to use both wireless charging and wired at the same time as there probably won’t be enough juice for that.
Both I and my wife like the visibility of the clock face whether you are in the bed or checking the time from another part of the room. Lenovo made an already good device into something even better. I love it!

This is not a laptop. It’s so much more. Meet Combo Touch, the keyboard case with trackpad that enables new levels of versatility with iPad Air. Navigate and work in apps like never before with a new click-anywhere trackpad — our largest ever* — that gives you more space and allows for Multi-Touch trackpad gestures. SMART CONNECTOR technology helps to deliver an incredibly responsive trackpad experience and also makes powering and pairing the keyboard instant. Type comfortably for hours with laptop-like backlit keys that automatically adjust to your environment. You can always see what you're typing thanks to 16 levels of brightness. Enjoy convenient access to volume controls and more with a full row of iPadOS shortcut keys. The iPad Air meets its aesthetic match with a slim, sleek design — the thinnest keyboard case we've ever designed with a trackpad. * The elegant woven outer fabric feels as great as it looks and the case is molded to fit your iPad Air, protecting the front, back, and corners from scrapes and bumps. Your iPad Air is held securely in place so you can have peace of mind that it won’t slip out and focus on what matters most — getting things done. *Compared to Logitech keyboard cases with trackpad released in 2020.

As an iPad Air Fourth Generation owner, I have a dilemma. I want to protect my beloved tablet from harm, I want to add a keyboard for productivity, but I don’t want to add unnecessary weight to the tablet when I travel. An added plus would be that the whole package be attractive and not break the bank.
Believe me, I have tried several of the alternatives, and now Logitech has offered a product to serve all my wants with the Logitech Combo Touch.
First, the case. It is an attractive hard rubber-like surround with a tactile woven fabric back and an adjustable kickstand. It can be used without the keyboard. I found it to be particularly useful and rather unique among the competing offerings. There is a cut out at the top so that the Apple Pencil’s magnet can firmly attach to the top of the iPad and recharge.
Second, the keyboard. Its magnets instantly and firmly snap into place at the bottom of the iPad, and once attached, you are in business. There is no Bluetooth to pair, and the keyboard gets its juice from the iPad battery. There was literally nothing to set up. You are typing instantly with lighted keys that automatically adjusts to the ambient light in your location.
It would be totally unfair to review this product without typing the review on its keyboard. I am doing so, and the feel is just perfect. Nice key travel and responsiveness.
And the Combo Touch is beautiful to behold. When closed, the keypad protects the iPad and puts it to sleep. And the components fit together beautifully. Yes, there as added weight, but not to the extent that it detracts from the Air’s utility. I will accept the slight weight gain for the protection and the utility of the Combo Touch.
My sole gripe is that the kickstand is sometimes lacking in stability when used on your lap. On a stable surface, I have no complaints whatsoever. And, of course, there is a large and functional touchpad, and function keys which make the Combo Touch even more versatile.
It’s pretty and functional and I highly recommend the Logitech Combo Touch.

This is a business class headset from Logitech. It is light, comfortable and attractive, and it has noise suppression built in. The design and construction exude Logitech quality.
It can be used with the supplied USB dongle to mate to your device, or, if you want, you can simply pair the headset via Bluetooth. I chose Bluetooth, and had the headset paired as headphone and microphone under Windows 10 in a matter of seconds after I took it out of the box. According to the headset’s built-in voice, the battery had an several hour charge on it before I attempted to plug in the charging cord. The assistant in the headset orally told me how much charge was left when I pressed the button to turn on the phone. The headset ships with the mentioned USB dongle, USB-C charging cord, a USB-C to USB-A adapter, and an attractive carrying pouch for the headset and all accessories. The headset folds up for storage in the pouch. The pouch has a smaller inner pouch shaped to hold the dongle.
I was able to use the headset immediately for a Zoom call, and the other participants heard me loud and clear. This was done without the benefit of installing any software at all. I checked the Zoom app to make sure the Logitech microphone and earphones were set to serve as audio sources.
I was easily able to install the LogiTune software on both my MacBook Air and Lenovo desktop computer at work. My iPhone was a different story. The app was easily downloadable from the App Store, but when I fired up the app, it was never able to pair the headset with the phone after several tries, using the set-up interface built into the app. I resorted to using the native system app in the phone to pair up the device.
When I tested the phone over the road, however, the headset and mike worked perfectly without any help from the app for phone calls. Conversations were crystal clear on both sides of the call and the noise suppression was fantastic. Callers said they could not tell I was calling from a car.
Controls are dead simple. A power button serves to turn the unit on or off, and you simply hold it down to put the device into pairing mode. An LED rapidly flashes to let you know the device is in paring mode, and your digital assistant confirms that with an announcement. Another button turns the automatic noise compensation off. There are buttons on the microphone side to pause, play, and turn volume up and down, as well as to start/end a telephone call. There is also a mute button on the mike.

There are buttons on the microphone side to pause, play, and turn volume up and down, as well as to start/end a telephone call. There is also a mute button on the mike.
I rate the headphone sound quality as excellent. Leave them on to listen to music until a call comes in. Continue with music after completion of the call, never taking your eyes off the road. The specs say that a full battery charge gives 14 hours of use. I do not doubt that spec but have not had the chance to fully confirm it through testing. I have already used the headset for hours with pleasure and have never charged them up once.
This fine headset is definitely a keeper.

Convenience, Safety, Peace of Mind

I have been using this interesting product for almost two months. It is shaped somewhat like a fat thumb drive and plugs into the OBD-II port on your car. The OBD port, you say, where is that? It is usually underneath your dashboard, and sometimes hard to find. The Spark device plugs into it and receives both voltage to power it as well as the diagnostic data from your car. One problem I have had during its usage is getting the Spark to stay in place. Because of the position of the OBD-2 port on my Honda Accord, it was easy to knock the device out of the port an onto the floor of the car as I got out of the car. This happened four or five times and was probably unique to my vehicle. I did not feel the contact with the unit or hear anything when this happened. The included software immediately sent me a phone message, alerting me to plug the unit back in.
What does the Spark do? Lots. It contains an LTE 4G SIM from AT&T and provides an in-vehicle hotspot for both your devices and those of your passengers to keep a constant connection to the internet. This is a great convenience on the road, and the quality of the connection depends on the distance between your car and AT&T towers offering service. Speed was more than serviceable in our area, and more than adequate for mobile devices, usually averaging about 30mps for downloads and 10 to 15gbs for uploads. You can connect up to 8 devices.
The Spark records every aspect of your vehicle’s performance and notifies you of a problem or an issue that needs to be serviced. I have not had any major problems with my car during my testing but would have been notified had they arisen. The alerts are issued to your smartphone by the Harmon software. You are reminded of the status of your fuel, whether the device has been removed, whether you have exceeded the speed limit, whether your vehicle is being towed, running idle for an inordinate amount of time, and whether there has been any disturbance while the vehicle is parked. When you go to your car and open the door, you may get a notice that there has been a disturbance. This warning would certainly be triggered if someone tried to break into your car.
As I type this, the software tells me my fuel level is at 23 per cent and normal, battery is at 13.1 volts and normal, engine coolant temperature is 190 degrees and normal, and air intake temperature was recorded at 125 degrees and normal.
The software also provides navigation services and tells you from your office or your home the exact location of your vehicle. I am sitting in my office, and the software now shows my car parked with a map of its location. It does without saying that if you had a small fleet of vehicles, you would be able to monitor their location at all times using this software. You can also set up boundaries for usage and be alerted if the driver exceeds the defined area. The software records the driving habits of the operator and makes recommendations for safety. If you must know, I scored well and was never reprimanded or told to slow down.
You can also summon roadside assistance and make parking reservations and pay for both inside the app.
The monthly charge to use this service may be a small premium to pay for the great utility, convenience and safety it offers to the users of the protected vehicles.

The Canon imageFORMULA R40 scanner, easy to set up and use, allows users to increase productivity and organization at home or in the office. Quickly convert paper documents to searchable digital files using the bundled software.
Posted by: mobilelawyer
from Mobile, Alabama
This little scanner is a workhorse and a great illustration of the benefit gained from a stand-alone scanner. I had it out of the box and hooked up on no time. You are advised to first download the appropriate software first, and then attach the scanner to your computer, via USB, which I did. Rediris software is furnished for optical recognition and document management and can also convert the pdf into a Word or Excel document. Cardiris is also offered for business card management. Time will tell if this software will be able to compete with Adobe Acrobat DC for my management needs. I liked what I saw in the documents I opened and converted using Rediris.
The one touch operation is so simple. You place the stack of documents you want to scan in the feeder, press the scan button, and boom: As the scan starts, the software opens and shows the progress and when you confirm that the job is finished, the document is saved to the default location you set. I set my default folder as the same folder used for our networked office scanner without issue. No matter which I use, the scanned product is in the same folder.
Operation is speedy: up to 40 pages per minute for black and white and 30 pages per minute in color is specified, and I have no reason to argue. Double those figures for the two-sided mode.
I have experienced no jams or miscues in the two days I have used the device. The default resolution settings are fine for my use. If I wanted greater detail, I could so specify as the expense of speed. I have never felt the need to do so. Nor have I been constrained by the lack of an ethernet connection on the R40. I am the only one who will be using this scanner, but since I am storing its output on a network drive attached to my computer, anyone else in the office could map a drive on their computer to get to the document, if needed.

Small footprint, efficient scanner. No complaints whatsoever. If you think you might need this, you probably do!

Would you care for some Ryzen with that laptop?
on April 21, 2021
Posted by: mobilelawyer
from Mobile, Alabama
What a treat it has been to work and play with this brand new convertible Chromebook with a beautiful narrow-bezel 14 inch full HD screen, stunning aluminum lid, spacious back-lit keys, and AMD Ryzen 3 3000 Series processor. It looks amazingly like its more expensive sibling, the Spin 713, but with a bigger screen.
Yes, this laptop has a 14-inch screen, and the Spin 713’s spec is only 13.5 inches! Admittedly, their design is different in that the 713 has a 3:2 aspect ratio, and the 714 has the more commonly seen 16:9, the latter being better for media consumption and the former having more available real estate for office work. But I am typing this review with the Microsoft Word app, and have no usability complaints whatsoever.
How is the Ryzen and is 4gb of memory enough? For my purposes, the Ryzen 3 has easily and speedily handled every task I have thrown at it, and 4 gigs of memory has been plenty for my work and play. This Ryzen chip was designed for use with chrome OS, and it shows. There is a fan, and after hours of work, I could sometimes hear it turn on, but it never bothered me. This Spin has not bogged down on me at all, and all tasks have been completed with aplomb. I seldom use the Linux apps, but did turn on the feature to install and use several apps, including Thunderbird mail. I had no problems, but I think you would be pressing the limits of this laptop’s memory if you wanted to keep several Linux apps going at once.
The 64gb of internal storage is on an eMMC chip, and not an SSD. It has not slowed me down. I stuck a 256gb card in the micro-SD slot, and have more than enough storage for my future use. The card installs flush and does not protrude at all.
There are ports aplenty. USB-C on both sides, and you can charge from either. And there are USB-A ports on either side as well, and an earphone jack. The power button is on the left side, and the volume control on the right.
The chassis on this device are MIL-STD 810H certified. That means this laptop can stand some punishment. It is so pretty, I would never want to intentionally test that specification!
The sturdy hinge allows the screen to be folded back for the tent mode, and then all the way back to use as a tablet. When you fold the screen all the way back, the keyboard is disabled.
The battery life is specified to be up to 10 hours. I have already used it for eight solid hours on a full charge, and it is still going strong. I have no reason to doubt that spec.

I think this Spin 514 Chromebook should be considered by anyone looking for an attractive midrange feature-rich Chrome OS device. Streamed movies render beautifully. Office work is a cinch. Honestly, this a lot of machine for a great price. If you are considering a Chromebook, you will want to give this one a look.

4 times the resolution of full HD 1080p with HDR for stunning details and image quality. IPS technology is optimized for the finest image quality with 178° wide-viewing-angle.
Posted by: mobilelawyer
from Mobile, Alabama
This is a gorgeous 4K display, calibrated out of the box, and a cinch to set up. The monitor took some adjustment on my part to get accustomed to. The native resolution of 3840 X 2160 is 4K and then some. Scaled to 120 per cent on the desktop as recommended by Windows 10, text is quite crisp and readable, but tiny. That annoyance is easily adjusted. I have this display set up next to a 24-inch monitor which it has supplanted. I am enjoying the extended desktop. My other monitor, adjusted by eye only, had a bluish cast to the whites, and the Asus appeared relatively warmer. I trust the calibrated Asus.
The non-reflective screen has been a joy to use. I have the monitors set up at my office desk. Given the way I have been using the Asus so far, its beautiful resolution is overkill. Its video inputs feature two HDMI inputs, a USB-C input, and a Display Port input. The monitor comes with a USB-C cable, tagged to be USB 3.1 compliant, an HDMI cable, and a Display Port cable. My Lenovo ThinkCentre M90n1 with an i5-8265U processor and Intel UHD Graphics 620 was able to output HDR under Windows 10 into the Asus, and it looked fantastic. I had to connect it with the supplied Display Port cable. I was not able to get video to pass through the USB-C cable from the Lenovo into the Asus unless I used a USB-C to HDMI dongle (not supplied), leading me to think the supplied USB-C cable may have been at fault.
I had the monitor up and running in less than 15 minutes out of the box. No tools are required to attach the monitor panel to the base, which is replete with the video input options mentioned, all speced to be capable of displaying 4K HDR resolution at 60 fps. In addition, there is a headphone jack (3.5mm) and four USB-A 3.1 ports which operate off the USB-C input, the Asus acting as a hub, also passing along power to connected devices, such as laptops, which need it to recharge batteries.
I was startled to hear audio out of the monitor. The Asus does have speakers which are passable, and they are a convenience to have if outboard speakers are not available.
This is a fine monitor and will serve my needs for some time to come. I am not a gamer or into production graphics or video. I will use the Asus occasionally to touch up photographs and consume media, in addition to its regular office work.

what type of tv has a internal tuner that i don't need converter box [have antenna]
You have to look at the specifications for the set. If it has a tuner, the feature will be listed. Some sets don't have a tuner. My Vizio model does not, and I knew it didn't. I tune my local channels with a TiVo. Silicon Dust makes a variety of boxes that tune both cable and over the air channels. If you have a smart TV, you can simply download an app to stream your local channels from the HD Homerun box.

Simplify device management with this Logitech Harmony Express smart universal remote control. Amazon Alexa is built in, letting you issue voice commands to access entertainment, ask questions and a host of other features. This Logitech Harmony Express smart universal remote control lets you change TV channels, open apps on tablets and tackle numerous other tasks.
Despite numerous requests, I see that both Amazon and Harmony will still not create a remote with number keys. There are apps that you can download for your Amazon Fire TV known as iptv services. But, you can't change channels without number keys!
I am using the Express without a keypad. You speak the channel, and Alexa and Harmony Express pull up the channel, whether you say "Go to Channel 10" or "Go to Fox". But do be advised that I am using a TiVo, where each channel has a specific number.

Enjoy crisp, colorful picture quality with this Full HD HP monitor. The ultrathin bezel on the 27-inch screen provides an expansive viewing area so you can stay productive, and its AMD FreeSync technology reduces input lag and screen tearing. This HP monitor has two HDMI ports for connecting gaming consoles and other devices.
Can this be turned vertically in its stand?
The stand allows the screen to be titled several degrees up and down to suit your viewing angle. It does not allow rotation. To rotate the screen, you would need to rotate the stand, which is not that hard to do because the monitor and stand are relatively light.

How do I connect speakers to this montior
The speakers would be powered from your computer, not this monitor. It has video inputs only.

Is there a removeable screen protector on the monitor from the manufacturer? It appears to have a removeable film, but I'm worried it's supposed to be there and if I remove it then the monitor will be messed up.
There was no film on mine. The screen has a matte surface, not shiny.

I was wonder how big is the system meaning lenth, and is the sound very loud
From the product literature for the SRS-XB41:
Size & Weight
DIMENSIONS (W X H X D)
11 1/2 in x 4 1/8 in x 4 1/4 " (291 mm x 104 mm x 105 mm)
WEIGHT
3 lb 5 oz (1500 g)
I am attaching a picture with a conventional flashlight at the bottom for size comparison. The smaller SRS-XB21 is on the bottom, and the larger SRS-XB41 is on top. I have both. They each put out sound at a loud volume that belies their respective size, but the SB 41 is bigger with punchier bass, and a higher output. It will fill the largest room with loud, clear, detailed sound.

Will this system transmit Bluetooth signal to my hot tub Bluetooth speakers in my backyard?
From the product product specifications: These features allow you to setup multiple SRS-XB21 (or compatible speakers) together in a chain or specify their position individually. You can add up to 100 speakers it says but I have no way of testing that. It is nice to be able to add 2 of them and specify one for left channel and one for right. Here is a quick list of compatible speakers - SRS-XB21, SRS-XB31, SRS-XB41, SRS-XB20, SRS-XB30, SRS-XB40, GTK-XB60, GTK-XB90.
Are your hot tub speakers on this list above? If not, the answer is "no". But the Bluetooth radios on these units have a good range, and they are portable, so you could simply take the Sony to the hot tub.

Can I use my Samsung phone for the bluetooth to play music?
You should be able to do so. That is what the speaker is designed to do. It worked perfectly with my Pixel 2 smartphone.
