Gets the job done
on November 21, 2014

from Phoenix, AZ
I bought these connectors because I wanted to connect the coaxial cable from my satelite dish to my new on roof antenna because I "cut the cord" with my satelite carrier. The connectors worked as described. I've had them up for about 3 months now and they have not gone bad from the rain storms and I have not lost any television reception.
If you're looking to connect two coaxial cables then go ahead and spend $5 and get these connectors.

Excellent e-reader
on November 16, 2014
Posted by: Cooper25
from Phoenix, AZ
I am a big fan of e-readers. I prefer the e-ink screens over tablet screen when reading books. I decided to pick up the new Kindle Voyage. Here are my thoughts.
First, the Kindle is much sleeker and lighter than the Paperwhite model. It's very easy to hold for a long length of time without getting tired.
Secondly, the addition of the page turn buttons is a welcomed addition. The buttons make it so easy to hold the Kindle with one hand and turn pages.
Lastly the screen. I marked off a star because I had to return my first Voyage directly to Amazon because the top half of the screen had a yellow tint to it that was very distracting while reading. The replacement Kindle Voyage that I received had a perfect screen and the 300 ppi looks amazing. That being said, Amazon needs to really focus on quality control because I've read that the yellow tint on the screen is a common issue. If you're spending $200 for an e-reader, then the screen should be perfect. Especially since this is the 3rd generation of the lighted screens for the e-readers.
If you're an avid reader, then the Kindle Voyage would be a worthy upgrade to make. If you're a casual reader who has a Paperwhite, you're probably okay with what you have.

Great New iPad
on October 26, 2014
Posted by: Cooper25
from Phoenix, AZ
This is a great new iPad. It's noticeably thinner than the previous model iPad Air 1. One of the sacrafices of making this model thinner was the removal of the mute/screen lock switch. The touch id is a nice addiition as well as including 2 GB of RAM. Lastly the screen is now compressed completely against the glass of the iPad, so even though the resolution is the same as the previous iPad air, this model's resolution looks better.
If you own an iPad Air, I don't know if there's enough to justify upgrading unless you need the extra RAM. If you own an iPad 4 or earlier, the iPad Air 2 is definitely worth upgrading to.

Great DVR Option for Cord Cutters
on October 22, 2014
Posted by: Cooper25
from Phoenix, AZ
I've had this Tivo DVR for a little over a month now and I am very impressed with the service and the device. The navigation is easy to use. You can set you DVR to record "Season Passes" which means your DVR will record all shows from the series that you select. If you're a cord cutter and want a DVR option, you cannot beat the $50 price tag and service that TIVO provides.

You are Talion, Ranger of the Black Gate. For what seems like eons, you have guarded the entrance to Mordor, keeping watch over Sauron's undisturbed dwelling place with relative uneventfulness. But in the blink of an eye, everything you hold dear is snatched from your grasp. Your family, your friends — even your very life is taken from you in one fell swoop that leaves your soul desolate and filled with an eternal rage. Resurrected by an unforgiving spirit, you have one purpose to your life, one thing that keeps your heart pumping and your mind from giving in to the relentless grief — vengeance. Prepare yourself to embark on a dogged vendetta that calls upon you to fight your way through Mordor and uncover the truth of the spirit who compels you. This epic tale of revenge and redemption transforms you into the most feared force in the land — the Shadow of Mordor.Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor delivers a dynamic game environment where the player orchestrates their personal plan of vengeance as they bend Mordor to their will. The game begins on the night of Sauron's return to Mordor, as his Black Captains brutally execute the Rangers of the Black Gate. Players become Talion, a ranger who loses his family and everything he holds dear, only to be returned from death by a mysterious Spirit of vengeance. Based on the player's actions with the in-game Nemesis System, every enemy encountered is distinct and can evolve to become a personal archenemy through the course of the game. As Talion's personal vendetta unfolds, players uncover the mystery of the Spirit that compels him, discover the origin of the Rings of Power and confront the ultimate nemesis.

Great Game
on October 18, 2014
Posted by: Cooper25
from Phoenix, AZ
Such a fun game. If you like the Batman Arkham games or Assassin's Creed, then this game game with be right up your alley. I really enjoyed the fact that if you lose a fight, then the enemy becomes stronger. So there is an acutal penalty for "dying." Only downside for me is that once you beat the game there's not a lot of replay value unless you're going for a platinum trophy. I would highly recommend.

Excellent Outdoor Antenna
on August 29, 2014
Posted by: Cooper25
from Phoenix, AZ
I finally decided to cut the cord. After looking at multiple reviews for Antennas, i decided to purchase this model. I'm about 35 miles away from the broadcast towers so I needed an antenna with a 50 mile reception radius. So far, this antenna has worked better than I expected. I've had guests over to watch football on CBS and my guests were stunned when I told them that I was running exclusively off of an antenna. The picture quality is that good. If you're looking for a an easy to use outdoor antenna, do not hesitate to purchase this one.

Great Cover
on November 29, 2013
Posted by: Cooper25
For me, this is the best option available for the iPad Air. The iPad Air is so thin and this helps keep that slim and light feel. If you want coverage for the back, then get something else.

Great Gaming System
on November 17, 2013
Posted by: Cooper25
from Phoenix, AZ
I picked up this gaming system on Friday and have put a solid 8 hours into it. So far, the menu is a much better layout than the PS3. Much easier to navigate. Also, the system runs really smooth. I haven't noticed any choppiness in any of the games I got. The Dualshock 4 feels nice in your hand. The system looks nice in your entertainment center.
My only complaint so far is that the PS4 should come with 1TB of memory as the standard. The 500 GB HD that comes with system only can hold about 12 games. I purchased the Seagate Momentus 1 TB HD, which has worked fine.
If you want a next-gen gaming system, don't hesitate to get this one. Just expect to drop an extra $100 on an internal HD.

Necessary upgrade for PS4
on November 17, 2013
Posted by: Cooper25
from Phoenix, AZ
If you're planning on buying a PS4, you might as well expect to spend another $100 and buy this hard drive. The 500 GB HD on PS4 only holds about 12 games, so unless you want to start deleting saves, then buy this. I've installed this Seagate HD and it works fine with my PS4.

Amazing Sound Cancelation
on November 10, 2013
Posted by: Cooper25
from Phoenix, AZ
How Often Used:3-5 times a week
I purchased these about a month ago and have used them about 25 times. I don't know if I can ever go back to other in-ear headphones again now.
The sound quality is great, but the best feature in the noise canceling. It seems as if everything around you just disappears when you turn it on. I also use my cell phone at work a lot so having a microphone attached to the cord is a big plus for me.
One complaint that I have is that the power source on the cord for the noise canceling is in an awkward place and can get in the way. Other than that, the product is great.
Highly recommended.

The one-button control and smaller, lighter design make the GoPro Hero session a versatile camera for your adventures.

Does this still come with the standard and low profile mounts as well as all the other things that came in the original Hero 4 session box or did they exclude accessories to counter the price drop?

Mine only came with the standard frame. The low profile frame has to bought separately.

Does anyone know if the battery can be removed for a backup battery in case the built in runs out?

No it only has the internal battery. I bought a portable charger to charge the GoPro in-between usage.

No, it comes with the frame. All accessories have to be purchase separately. Luckily plenty of companies make knock-off generics that are super cheaper.

I have had this antennae installed for last year, worked great. Recommended to family and friends. Yesterday abruptly lost all reception. What caused this? Nothing changed with my set up. Has this happened to anyone else? What is the best resolution? Thanks in advance.
Maybe try switching out the coax cable. I don't know why the antenna would stop unless something broke off.
