Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

Picks up major networks and PBS
on February 25, 2017
Posted by: Chuckie
from Port Wentworth, Ga
Verified Purchase:Yes
This antenna pulls in stations up to 40 miles in my area. The most difficult part was getting the antenna placed in the correct area to pick up the stations I wanted. I originally put the antenna in a window thinking the slim thickness of glass would provide the best signal. I was wrong. I pulled out my ladder and moved the antenna into several different positions then scanned the area for new stations. It took about five different locations but I can now pick up all the major networks including PBS. If you get this antenna on sale it is worth the price.

Accurate with syncing idiosyncracies
on September 17, 2016

from Port Wentworth, Ga
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchase this watch because I just wanted an accessory to track my mileage and didn't care about activity tracking nor did I want to carry my phone with me on my runs. Here are my thoughts:
Accuracy: Same accuracy as other GPS units and is dead on with trail markings.
Battery life: Good battery life. My runs usually last an hour and I can get 7 runs in before the battery is pretty low. Relatively slow recharging though.
Syncing: This is where is gets messy. On iOS, I have to make sure that I go in a specific order or it will not give me the sync icon on the watch or it will drop sync. I start with bluetooth off and the app not running. On the watch I go to phone then turn the sync on. On my phone, I then open the TomTom app then go to settings to turn on bluetooth. If I do that in a specific order, it will sync with no issues.
TomTom app: Straight forward with all the basic info. Elevation, pace, splits, time, distance. Auto syncs with new Nike Run Club and Runkeeper. There are more but I do not use them. When you open those apps, the run has already registered.
Hint: If you want to get a notification through the watch at certain intervals time or distance, use the lap mode. Even though I don't run on a track, I set my watch to vibrate at every half mile. You can also set it to vibrate every so many minutes. I like this feature as I know how far I am running without looking down at the watch.
Overall: Nice, inexpensive, accurate, syncing issues.

Bargain battery for Sony A6000
on June 20, 2014
Posted by: Chuckie
from Port Wentworth, Ga
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am able to keep my Sony A6000 going for 300 shots. The compact size allows me to carry multiple batteries without taking up too much space. Battery life is shortened when keeping the camera on in standby or reviewing many pictures. Got three on clearance which allows me keep going for a full day of shooting.

Compact charger with fast recharge
on June 20, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
Compact charger for Sony NP-FW50. It plugs straight into the wall with no extension required. The first 10-15 minutes charges your battery the quickest. Depending upon how depleted the battery, it can bring it back to 50% quickly before slowing down.
