Great new 2 in 1 convertible laptop from Dell
on May 2, 2024
Posted by: Idoc
The Dell Inspiron 16 7640 2-in-1 laptop is new convertible laptop from Dell. It blends versatility, power, and style into one neat package!
Dell calls the case color Ice Blue, but it looks more like a medium metallic grey. The keyboard has matching color keys with blue backlighting, including a new copilot key next to the right alt key for quick access to Copilot. With a double-hinged screen, it can be used as a laptop, tablet or in tent configuration, providing maximum flexibility for work or play.
The laptop features a 16-inch 16:10 FHD+ touchscreen with a max resolution of 1920 x 1200. The Intel Arc Graphics deliver smooth visuals, making it suitable for multimedia and light gaming. An optional active pen is available from Dell if you need it.
The laptop offers a variety of ports, including 2 USB A 3.2 USB A ports, 2 Thunderbolt 4.0 ports, 1 Universal audio jack, 1 HDMI 1.4 port (max resolution 1920x1080 @60Hz), and 1 SD card slot, providing ample connectivity options. The Thunderbolt 4.0 ports both support DisplayPort 2.1 and Power Delivery. You could theoretically connect 3 additional screens with the built in ports.
This laptop is Powered by an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor reaching up to 4.8GHz utilizing 16 cores and 22 threads it can handle most chores easily. The laptop is fitted with 16GB of LPDDR5 memory and is expandable to 32GB this allows plenty of memory for any program. Storage is handled by a fast 1TB Sk hyinx BC901 NVME SSD. Windows 11 Home is included, you may want to upgrade to Windows 11 pro if you need to join a domain at work or need the extra security features.

The backlit keyboard has a great feel and a cool blue glow. The keys have good travel and recoil. There is an integrated fingerprint reader in the power button at the right end of the upper row of keys that supports windows hello, sadly the webcam does not support it. The trackpad is large and has good sensitivity with good feel while clicking.
The laptop has four tuned speakers with audio processing by Dolby Atmos Core and Waves MaxxAudio Pro, delivering an immersive sound experience. I was surprised by the sound from the built in speakers. They are more than adequate for any media streaming and lite gaming. The integrated widescreen FHD webcam with dual digital microphone array and Temporal Noise Reduction ensures clear video calls.
With a 6-cell, 90 WHr high-capacity battery and ExpressCharge capability, the laptop offers outstanding battery life, i got between 6 and 7 hours per charge. The laptop has two charging modes using Standard charge the laptop charges fully charge in 3 hours With ExpressCharge you can charge in a little over 2 hours, from 0 to 80% in 75 minutes and 100% in 135 minutes.
Another cool feature is Intel Unison which allows you to sync your laptop with any phone, regardless of OS and transfer file, photos or video. You will have to download the app to your phone or your tablet to use it.
Advanced features are available due to the Integrated AI NPU that enables features like Windows Studio Effects for background blur and tracking. The NPU has much lower power requirements compared to CPU utilized with traditional processors and graphics cards extending operating time on battery and making the laptop more green. Dolby Vision HDR support ensures vivid colors and deep blacks. To keep everything running Dell includes 1 year of Basic Onsite Service after remote diagnosis with Hardware-Only Support.
Overall, the Dell Inspiron 16 7640 2-in-1 is a powerful and versatile laptop suitable for home users, students, and professionals. The laptop provides excellent connectivity with a variety of ports and WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3.

Lots of fast external storage right on your Desk
on April 22, 2024
Posted by: Idoc
The SanDisk 8 TB desk drive is a compact SSD storage device that remains on your desk and is connected to your computer by USBC or USBA. It has a fast transfer speed, SanDisk claims up to 1,000 MB per second; I got a speed of 280mb/s over USB A 3.1 transferring files to and from the drive using a Windows 11 PC. It can be used as an external backup disk by simply dragging and dropping your files into a folder on the desk drive or with the included Acronis true image for Western digital. With the Acronis you can backup your entire PC or specific files and folders. I love the small form factor and large storage space. I use it primarily to store backups of my photos and videos from my PC and our smartphones. I also use it for video and photo editing project storage workspace as 4k video editing requires quite a lot of space and this 8TB drive has it! The drive can be used on Linux, Mac, Android, IOS, and Windows. The drive comes formatted with Exfat which is compatible with everything but NTFS is recommended if you use Windows only which is how I formated mine.
Fast compact abundant storage is just what I needed thank you SanDisk

Smart Humidifier with large capaciy
on January 31, 2024
Posted by: Idoc
The Levoit Superior 6000S is a smart evaporative humidifier that combines advanced technology with user-friendly features. The design is modern and has wheels so it can be moved around easily. The large capacity is great allowing long running time between fillings and the ability to humidify large spaces.
The six-gallon water tank ensures extended operation without frequent refills, making it suitable for large spaces or whole-house use. This generous capacity reduces the need for constant monitoring and provides continuous relief from dry air. The tank is filled by removing the top section and filling the tank through a circular opening through the wicking frame or removing the frame and filling the tank. Levoit gives you a hose with a fitting for a faucet. I did not like the hose the fitting does not allow fast filling with the water squirting out if you run it in too fast. I found using gallon jugs and pouring the water though the round opening the fastest way to fill the tank. The unit used about 2 gallons a night to humidify my bedroom to 50%.
The unit has washable wicking filters you should clean every 1-3 months, they give you a brush to do this without damaging them. The Levoit Superior 6000S simplifies maintenance, saving on replacement costs and minimizing disposable waste.
The intuitive control panel and mobile app allow users to customize humidity levels, set timers, and create schedules. Smart sensors continuously monitor ambient conditions, ensuring optimal humidity for comfort. The Automatic setting works the best for me, set the Humidity level you want and the unit will raise and lower the fan speed as needed to achieve your humidity target. If you want to minimize the fan noise the dedicated sleep mode minimizes noise levels for a peaceful night's rest. You can even turn the display off if you want complete darkness.
You can use the VeSync app to control your humidifier from your smart phone. Standard functions that duplicate the panel buttons are Turn the humidifier on/off, cycle through fan speed levels, turn Auto Mode on/off, set target humidity level. turn Sleep Mode on/off, turn the display on/off, turn the display lock on/off. Additional functions available only through the app are Manage filter life, Check current humidity levels in the humidifier’s environment and the smart functions Auto home and Auto away. Auto Home Mode to automatically adjusts humidity levels based on the current room temperature. Auto Away Mode automatically adjusts humidity levels based on the current room temperature. You can also aet a timer for 1–24 hours. You can also connect the Humidifier to Alexa or Google Home using the app
In my opinion The Levoit Superior 6000S Smart Evaporative Humidifier is an easy to use solution for humidity control. Its six-gallon capacity, washable elements, and customizable settings make it a great choice for combating dry air and ensuring comfort in your living space. Good bye dry nose, dry eyes and itchy skin!

Great Monitor for new to Midrange gamer
on January 21, 2024
Posted by: Idoc
The Dell G2524H is a new gaming monitor from dell that brings high quality gaming that will be difficult to beat at this price point. The Monitor mount is Vesa 100 compatible. The included stand is stable and has good height and tilt adjustment range. The monitor can be tilted up or down and rotated left and right compatible and can rotate to a portrait or landscape with the included stand. The monitor has a great modern look with a black bezel and a grey metallic body the stand also follows the same color pattern.
Dell includes all the cables you will need to connect to the display port and a USB A to USB B cable to connect to the monitors built in USB 3.2 gen 1 hub that has 2 ports on the left bottom of the monitor. The USB port closers to the stand supports power charging as well. Dell does not include the HDMI cable probably because the 280HZ refresh rate is only supported on the display port inputs. There are 2 display ports (HDCP 1.4) and one HDMI 2.1 port (HDCP1.4) I was able to run the monitor from my USBC port to one of the display ports and achieved the advertised 280 hz. The monitor does not have speakers.
Resolution is Full HD 1980 x 1080 @280 HZ using a 90 DPI 24.5 inch IPS panel with 1ms response time in extreme mode. The Blacks are really good with great brightness. There monitor does not support HDR. AMD Freesync and Nvidia G-sync are supported. The monitor has great response rate for gaming with little to no ghosting noted during gaming or testing. The monitor even includes four unique overlays to enhance gaming (Night vision for dark scenes, Clear vision for daytime scene detail enhancement Chroma vision that applies a heat map to any game to define game objects from the background and Crosshair to assist aiming). This is a great beginner to midrange gaming and will serve you well. It will also work well as a productivity or media consumption monitor.
In order to get the 280 hz mode you will need to open the monitor menu choose the gaming menu and then overclock settings of 280 hz. You can tweak the image by adjusting the preset mode, the response time the dark stabilizer and turning the vision engine on or off. Although the colors were not great with standard out of box settings, I was able to get excellent colors by using the all the adjustments. The adjustments are made with buttons on the right back of the monitor and a joystick button at the top of the row. I found the controls a little difficult to use at first but you get used to them. One cool thing is you can display the current refresh rate in the upper right corner by turning the frame rate setting on in the gaming menu.

I highly recommend this monitor for the new to mid-range gamer at this price point you get a great monitor with 280 hz refresh rate, bright ips panel with excellent viewing angles. Dell includes a fantastic warranty that will replace the panel even if 1 pixel is defective during the 3 year limited hardware Warranty period, even including Advanced Exchange service with next business shipping. This makes it a winner in my book.

Trezor Model T Secure Crypto wallet with color LCD
on December 30, 2023
Posted by: Idoc
The Trezor Model T is a secure and easy way to store your cryptocurrency. The new Model T from Trezor has a color 1.54-inch color LCD display. This is a great improvement from the Model 1 and light years ahead of the Ledger wallets in both usability and readability. The wallet is X-ray safe making it ok for air travel. It has a USB C connector and and microSD card slot.
Setup is s breeze you download the Trezor desktop suite or use the web suite. Plug in the Trezor wallet after removing the holographic security seal that is placed to ensure no tampering has been done to your wallet before your use. Trezor supplies a USBC to USBA cable to connect this to your computer, you can use a USBC to USBC for your smartphone or tablet. According to Trezor they are working on a new Trezor Suite Mobile app for all mobile operating systems. You then choose simple 12 word passphrase setup or Shamir passphrase with 3 (2 needed to restore) or 5 (3 needed to restore) different passphrase groups generated for even more security. You then choose if the wallet is standard (unprotected) or Hidden (protected) with another password and finally assign your Trezor a Pin. Whew locked up tighter than Fort Knox! If you want even more protection the Model T can use a microSD card to further enhance your security. You will have to use trezorctl and a microSDcard formatted in fat32. You will enable the use of the card after that an encrypted code is stored on the SD card and you will not be able to log into it without first inserting the sd card in the Trezor wallet.The full details are documented on the Trezor website.
You can use the webapp from the Trezor website and chrome browser in Android with full functionality or Trezor Suite lite for Android or IOS which only allows monitoring and receiving crypto. I am not sure if the newest iPhone with a USBC port can use the full webapp.
There are several third party options to extend or add to The functionality and usefulness of the Model T beyond the Trezor suite.
There wallet options compatible with the Trezor Model T, each allowing different features and functionalities. All of these are documented on the Trezor website. I have outlined them in a table below.

I also found that you can connect the new Helium wallet (Black one) to the Trezor Model T to support Helium tokens on the Solana chain.
I have to give the New Trezor Model T a big thumbs up. I found it easier to use than my Ledger wallets with better readability and easier data entry. Third party support expands it usability to almost every token. There are a few coins that Ledger supports natively hopefully Trezor will continue to expand their native support. The Trezor model T is my primary cold wallet now.

Multiscreen support through USB-C
on November 4, 2023
Posted by: Idoc
The Insignia™ NS-PA5C2HMS23 USB-C to Dual 4K HDMI Adapter is great for Windows, Android or IOS devices that have a USBC port but no HDMI out port to extend your display to two additional monitors or projectors. This adapter allows you to extend or mirror your display through a USB-C port supporting DP alt mode to an HDMI-enabled display with up to 4K resolution at 60 Hz.
I used the adaptor to extend my Microsoft surface go display to an Epson projector to project spooky halloween images to my Windows for Trick or Treaters to enjoy. This worked without a hitch, no drivers to install just plug and play! I had a perfect image and sound as well over HDMI.
The adapter is plug-and-play requiring no additional drivers, however you need to have pretty current drivers for it to work so make sure they are up to date. It is adapter is compatible with Windows 11 & 10, MacOS 10.2, iPad OS 12, and Chrome OS 48 0 2564.82 and Android OS 8.0. The device is well built with braided cable and flexible rubber at each end, It has a cable length of 4.53 inches. The adaptor body is small with a metalic grey shell. The USB-C male input is also encased int the same metalic grey casing and is very solid. The dual HDMI ports are solid and spaced to have the minimum area nessesay for the 2 HDMI cables making the adapter very small and compact. The adapter is USB-IF certified, which means it is officially certified for compatibility across a wide range of devices. I noted no overheating during it's hours long use.
The Insignia USB-C Dual 4K HDMI adaptor is a great accesory for your devices alowing you to extend your display or even project it. It comes with a 1-year limited warranty for both parts and labor.

The one kitchen gadget to replace them all!
on October 29, 2023
Posted by: Idoc
The Ninja Combi All-in-One Multicooker, Oven, & Air Fryer is nothing short of a culinary Swiss army knife. This versatile appliance has truly impressed me. It's a game-changer that brings convenience, efficiency, and deliciousness to our table.
The Ninja Combi has a modern design that will complement any kitchen. It is solidly built looks like it will last a long time. I like the front opening door and the glass window so you can monitor the food while it is cooking. The digital control panel is easy to use with simple navigation to the multitude of cooking functions. Whether you're a seasoned home chef or a kitchen novice, this appliance is user-friendly.
This multifunctional appliance truly lives up to its name. It's an oven, a multicooker and an air fryer all in one. At first glance It’s wide range of cooking modes looks a little daunting. The Combi Cookier Mode: Combi Meals, Combi Crisp, Combi Bake, Steam, Proof, Rice/Pasta and AirFry/Stovetop mode: Air Fry, Bake, Broil, Pizza, Toaster, Searing/Saute, Slow cook and even Sous Vide. After using it a few times it all makes sense. I may retire multiple kitchen gadgets and save valuable counter space. The ovens two modes are controlled by a lever in the upper right front of the oven. It uses a combination of “Hypersteam” and “Cyclonic Air” to cook the food. You do have to allow for the steam so even though it will fit under a cabinet an open counter I think it is better to place it on an open counter to avoid steam damage to your cabinets.
The Ninja Combi delivers consistently excellent results. It heats up quickly, maintaining precise temperatures, which makes cooking consistent each time. The air frying function produces perfectly crispy fries, wings or chicken nuggets. Roasting and baking are also top-notch. The Combi meals are great for busy people or families, you can whip up a whole meal by adding the ingredients and Pressing the Start button. Once you get all your ingredients together Put the starch on the bottom with any liquid and the Protein on the top just follow the temperature settings and time recommendations and you will have a perfectly cooked meal. You can make delicious meals like Baked Mac and Cheese with Broccoli, steak and vegetables or salmon and asparagus. The inspiration guide has a handy table to create your own Combi creation. You can download a full copy of the guide from Ninja. My first foray using the oven was to create a toasted turkey and swiss cheese sandwich with Mayo. I just popped it in the oven set it to air fry and choose Toast, selected medium and Volia after a few minutes I had a perfectly toasted sandwich with the cheese melted perfectly. The next day I used the toast setting to warm up some left-over pizza. The next night I got my Chef hat on! I decided to make a pork tenderloin with baby potatoes, carrots, white onions and celery with a port wine and beef stock and rosemary gravy including the drippings from the tenderloin. I used Combi crisp to cook the roast and then thickened the gravy using the sauté/stovetop setting I had to guess a little on the time for the roast but it turned out great, the best I have ever cooked in fact! I think this oven is going to really elevate my cooking.
When you are cooking a meat alone remember to use liquid in the pan so it does not get dry. You can even cook meat, chicken or fish in under 30 minutes without defrosting following the cooking guides. There are a few recipes to try in the guide you can get the Idea from there and invent your own.
The Ninja Combi can easily handle family-sized meals. It's spacious enough to roast a whole chicken or 5 lb. roast, bake a large pizza, or air fry a batch of wings 12 – 16 depending on the size. The dimensions are 14.92(L) 15.43(W) 13.11(L). For large gatherings, you might find it limiting.
Cleaning is a breeze, thanks to the non-stick pan surfaces that are dishwasher-safe. This makes the post-cooking cleanup much less of a hassle. For deep cleaning you use the steam setting, allowing you to get even the dirtiest oven sparkling clean.
While the Ninja Combi is an investment, its versatility justifies the price. When you consider that it can replace multiple kitchen appliances, the cost becomes much more reasonable. It's a high-quality, long-lasting kitchen companion that will pay off over time.
The Ninja Combi All-in-One Multicooker, Oven, & Air Fryer has made a great addition to my kitchen. Its exceptional versatility, cooking performance, and ease of use make it my go to appliance now. If you're looking to streamline your cooking process and expand your culinary horizons, this appliance is an excellent choice. Whether you're a busy parent, a professional chef, or anyone in between, the Ninja Combi will make you meal preparation a joy.
The Ninja Combi has a modern design that will complement any kitchen. It is solidly built looks like it will last a long time. I like the front opening door and the glass window so you can monitor the food while it is cooking. The digital control panel is easy to use with simple navigation to the multitude of cooking functions. Whether you're a seasoned home chef or a kitchen novice, this appliance is user-friendly.
This multifunctional appliance truly lives up to its name. It's an oven, a multicooker and an air fryer all in one. At first glance It’s wide range of cooking modes looks a little daunting. The Combi Cookier Mode: Combi Meals, Combi Crisp, Combi Bake, Steam, Proof, Rice/Pasta and AirFry/Stovetop mode: Air Fry, Bake, Broil, Pizza, Toaster, Searing/Saute, Slow cook and even Sous Vide. After using it a few times it all makes sense. I may retire multiple kitchen gadgets and save valuable counter space. The ovens two modes are controlled by a lever in the upper right front of the oven. It uses a combination of “Hypersteam” and “Cyclonic Air” to cook the food. You do have to allow for the steam so even though it will fit under a cabinet an open counter I think it is better to place it on an open counter to avoid steam damage to your cabinets.
The Ninja Combi delivers consistently excellent results. It heats up quickly, maintaining precise temperatures, which makes cooking consistent each time. The air frying function produces perfectly crispy fries, wings or chicken nuggets. Roasting and baking are also top-notch. The Combi meals are great for busy people or families, you can whip up a whole meal by adding the ingredients and Pressing the Start button. Once you get all your ingredients together Put the starch on the bottom with any liquid and the Protein on the top just follow the temperature settings and time recommendations and you will have a perfectly cooked meal. You can make delicious meals like Baked Mac and Cheese with Broccoli, steak and vegetables or salmon and asparagus. The inspiration guide has a handy table to create your own Combi creation. You can download a full copy of the guide from Ninja. My first foray using the oven was to create a toasted turkey and swiss cheese sandwich with Mayo. I just popped it in the oven set it to air fry and choose Toast, selected medium and Volia after a few minutes I had a perfectly toasted sandwich with the cheese melted perfectly. The next day I used the toast setting to warm up some left-over pizza. The next night I got my Chef hat on! I decided to make a pork tenderloin with baby potatoes, carrots, white onions and celery with a port wine and beef stock and rosemary gravy including the drippings from the tenderloin. I used Combi crisp to cook the roast and then thickened the gravy using the sauté/stovetop setting I had to guess a little on the time for the roast but it turned out great, the best I have ever cooked in fact! I think this oven is going to really elevate my cooking.
When you are cooking a meat alone remember to use liquid in the pan so it does not get dry. You can even cook meat, chicken or fish in under 30 minutes without defrosting following the cooking guides. There are a few recipes to try in the guide you can get the Idea from there and invent your own.

The Pinnacle of Wifi Routers
on October 22, 2023
Posted by: Idoc
The new Orbi 970 series WIFI Mesh router and satellite sets allow the fastest WIFI speeds available. These units are hefty weighing 3.6lb each They come in white or black and are very stylish. I have the white with brushed metal trim in the 3 pack configuration. The Main router serves as the base it has a 10ghz wan port, 10 Gbps backhaul port and four 2.5 Gbps ports. You can aggregate the 10 gbps wan and the 10 gbps ethernet to allow the router to provide maximum thruput from your ISP. This allows you to use your super high-speed WiFi or even wired connections. WiFi 7 is blazingly fast 2.4x faster than WiFi 6. If you want the fastest speeds, you can run hardwire backhaul between the main router and the satellites. The new antenna design gives better coverage with Negear. The WiFi uses 6ghz, 5ghz and 2.4ghz bands to achieve the best coverage and speeds wherever you are in your home or business. The Wifi is backwards compatible with older devices.
The setup is easy with the new Android App (also available for IOS), I did have a glitch adding the satellites after the firmware updated it would not reconnect to the base but restarting the app the install proceeded as normal using the password, I set up initially to reconnect. After the setup was complete including the year of free Netgear Armor by Bitdefender monitoring the Orbi network has worked flawlessly. Your Armor subscription includes installs of Bitdefender on your devices if you choose to use It to protect you even when you use other networks. I use this in a business environment with many computers and wireless devices connecting including streaming TV all running at full Wifi speed. Netgear claims you can connect 200 devices to these routers. You can set up 3 networks, your main WiFi, guest WiFi and IOT network. The default settings will work fine for most environments but there are extensive advanced options if you need specific settings. The options available are extensive and very well documented in the user manuals.
The New Netgear Orbi 970 are the pinnacle of Wifi routers in my opinion they provide all the speed you need for any application, gaming and 8k and beyond streaming. These routers are futureproofed with 10 gbps ports with the port aggregation feature and 2.5 gbps ports for highspeed wired connections. If you want the best this is worth the investment.

Lightweight with Comfort and Premium sound
on September 28, 2023
Posted by: Idoc
The Technics EAH-A800 are great new headphones that combine style, comfort, and outstanding sound quality all in a 10.5oz package. As an audio enthusiast, I had high expectations for these headphones, and they were simply exceptional.
The first thing that caught my attention when I unboxed the EAH-A800 was their beautiful clean modern look. The brushed metal accents and smoothly rotating well padded ear cups are some of the premium features that stand out. The build quality is exceptional, with sturdy yet lightweight construction. The band and ear cup swivels look and feel extremely durable and capable of withstanding daily use. The conservative Technics branding is welcome. Technics includes a beautiful hard case that holds the headphones and accessories A USB A to USB C charging cable, a mini 3.5mm RCA input cable and an airline dual mini 3.5mm RCA adapter.
The PEEK/Polyurethane ear cushions are soft with just the right amount of firmness to provide an excellent seal without exerting too much pressure on the head or ears. The headband is adjustable and well-padded providing a secure and comfortable fit for different head sizes. I found that I could wear these headphones for hours without any discomfort.
The EAH-A800 delivers on sound, the Technics reputation for Audio shines through here. The 3-Layer Diaphragm 40mm driver dynamic drivers faithfully reproduce audio, allowing you to pick up subtle nuances in your music or movies. The bass is deep and impactful without overpowering the midrange and highs. The profile is adjustable in the Technics audio connect app. The Audio is 96 kHz/24 bit LDAC when connected by Bluetooth. These headphones have exceedingly well-balanced expansive sound, making these headphones great with all types of music.
The EAH-A800 features active noise-canceling (ANC) technology, which effectively reduces ambient noise, I found this very effective. Whether you're in a noisy office or on an airplane, the ANC on these headphones is quite impressive and makes a noticeable difference in sound quality when enabled. You can adjust the ANC level in the app. There is initial setup then manual adjustment is possible. There are 8 mics to help with wind noise reduction, superior call quality is provided by 4 Mic Beamforming and Noise Suppression Technology to clearly convey your voice to the listener. The electronics in the headphones combine Dual Hybrid feedforward & feedback noise canceling with analog & digital processing for immersive listening. You have two modes that let ambient sound in Transparent mode comprehensively captures voices and other surrounding sounds and Attention mode that reduces unwanted external noise to make it easier to hear people’s voices. You can also turn off ANC. The Technics audio connect app lets you set the touch control to switch between ANC and your selected ambient sound mode.
These headphones support Bluetooth 5.2, ensuring a stable and fast connection to your devices. With Multipoint connectivity you can connect to 2 devices at the same time. This headphone has Alexa Built in so you can select music, adjust the volume, and make phone calls, with your voice. The battery life is respectable, offering 40(LDAC, NC on) to 60 (ACC, NC off) hours of playback time on a single charge. It takes 3 hours for a full charge and 10 min for a “quick charge”. The inclusion of a USB-C port for charging is great. Now I can use my smartphone charger to charge it. The headphones will auto power off after a period of silence you set in the app or can be set to stay on which is the default. I recommend turning on the auto power off during the headphone setup.

The Technics EAH-A800 headphones combines style, comfort, and exceptional sound quality. I feel the investment is well worth it for audiophiles and anyone who values top-notch audio performance and comfort. Whether you're using them for music, movies, or gaming, the EAH-A800 headphones will elevate your audio experience to a whole new level. Technics has truly delivered an outstanding product with these headphones; I highly recommend them to anyone seeking the best in audio quality and style.

What are installation instructions & wiring requirements?
You have to have a "C" power wire. You essentially mark each wire connected to your old thermostat with little labels provided then push them into the terminals on the Honeywell themostat. It is a good idea to take a picture with your smart phone or camera. Some systems require a jumper this is described in the manual. If you get stuck you send pics of your current wiring to Honeywell support and then call them, they will walk you through a solution.

Listen to your playlist in peace with these Sony headphones. They have a 40mm dome driver to deliver the full depth of audio, and the noise cancelling feature minimizes outside disturbances for a better listening experience. These Sony headphones have a battery life of up to 30 hours for extended jam sessions.
Do these headphones have the same cracking problem that the last version had! I am planning to buy them soon and I want them to last for the price. Thank you.
I have not noticed any crackling while listening. I did notice a crackle when running my fingers over the power button once or twice.

Keep your media and documents with you while you're on the go with this SanDisk SDCZ60-064G-A46 64GB flash drive that features SanDisk SecureAccess software to keep your files protected.
Can you use this drive to do Windows Updates if your laptop is low on memory ?
Thank's !
There is a way to point your your documenst, pictures , videos to any drive, windows will move the files there and future files will be saved there. While this can be done I do not reccomend it with removable USB flash drives ves permanently. You can temporarily move the file for update then maybe move them back. If you are low on space consider a hard-disk upgrade. ?? A good time to consider an SSD it will speed up most modern computers as well as extend operating time on battery.
