Great quality. Faster charging,syncing and longer

Knowing you have a 2 foot syncing/charging cable coming with a $600 phone is a bit disappointing. Finding out the battery on said phone makes having chargers at every location in your home a necessity really highlights the importance of this product. 10 feet for extended range. Fast charge and sync cycles. Great addition to our home.

Best router for the money on the market
on December 12, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
We have almost 25 wireless devices in our home. Obviously it takes a workhorse for our needs and if there are any issues we will quickly find them. Linksys routers that once ruled the market are total garbage. All of them made in the past couple of years since they were spun off. Asus isn't bad but their integration software makes it challenging. Netgear has the best coverage area of all of them and has a great app for connecting and monitoring performance and usage.

Simple to install. Easy to calibrate. Quality components.
One thing to note is if you are using this mount with a drop ceiling like we are in our basement you will need a longer extension tube. These can be purchased at Home Depot for a couple of dollars.

Best projector in it's class hands down
on December 12, 2014
Posted by: cpmi
from novi, mi
Verified Purchase:Yes
My wife and I have built our theatre room backwards compared to most. We had everything including the screen already in place using a cheap projector that I have for work presentations. Theatre quality projectors aren't cheap and we were close to pulling the trigger a couple of times and held off. Finally decided to do it and I can honestly say it was the best thing we have ever done. Mind blowing quality and crispness. 3D capable. Just an all around homerun. Couldn't be more pleased. Picture quality is as good or better than projectors that cost twice as much. We looked and researched for almost two years before finally arriving at this one.

These batteries were replacements for my Viper remote start fobs. Disappointed that the fobs apparently go through batteries quickly but it's a small sacrifice for all of the upside of having the remote start and alarm functions.

Excellent keyboard for hammer hands!
on October 1, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
One thing I have struggled with is finding an iPad keyboard that would allow my hammer hands to type effectively. I had the Logitech metal one that was a clamshell type. iPad snapped down into which was nice and secure. Problem was the edges were really sharp and my hammer hands created issues. I never used it so I ended up giving it away.
This keyboard is absolutely perfect. Backlit keys. Long battery life. Ease of use. Real keys so you know when you have struck one vs the rubber mat types.
An excellent product. Highly recommended for the iPad user who needs to type on their tablet often like me.

Been a linksys user for quite some time with zero issues or complaints. Hope I got the one lemon they have made bc this one was garbage. Easy to setup and operate. Customize.
Locked up and fell off the network every day multiple times for the few days I had it before returning it for the Netgear Nighthawk that was actually cheaper and works fantastically.

nighthawk x6 question
I currently have a suddenlink wireless modem. I wanted to replace the rented modem for something that would also support 3 smart tvs, 4 smart phones, 2 gaming systems, etc. I was told that this nighthawk x6 would replace the modem and have enough power to support everything. As I am getting ready to install it, I realize that I still need the rented modem. Is there another alternative to purchase something that will support all of the devices, or will I need to purchase a modem plus this router?
You will need a modem. This router is an excellent choice.
Lots of options for good modems so you can return the rented one.

can I hook up directv or Fios to a projector
Yes. All that will be needed is an hdmi cable for the video. Most projectors have tiny speakers on them which is where the sound will come from if you run it direct from the tv box. Best bet is to run it through a head unit for the audio and then one hdmi cable to the projector for all of your devices like xbox, ps4, dvd player, etc.

Does the Epson 5030ub come with a full factory warranty or is it the warranty from Best Buy?
Full factory warranty. Best Buy Geek Squad warranty is a no brainer though. When you are spending $2600 on a projector a few hundred bucks for a hassle free warranty through your local store makes so much sense.

Only at Best BuyMount your flat-panel TV to the wall easily with this tilting mount that features a locking mechanism for secure installation and a fingertip tilt that allows for smooth movement and optimal viewing.
Stone Fireplaces
A stone fireplace that is not uniformly straight like a drywall wall would be. Placing a straight edge on the wall, the stone will not touch the straight consistently. However the gaps are less than 1/4". Are there tips on how to mount this tv.
In these mounts there are often spacers for this very purpose. If the mount didn't include them you can go to your local Home Depot and pick some up. Just make sure you have consistent depth and the spacers push the mount far enough away from the stone that the mount isn't hitting stones between the mounting bolts. Otherwise it could potentially bend the mount and make it unsuitable for mounting your tv.

need to replace a Linksys WRT150-N wireless router
We need a new wireless router. have an old Linksys WRT 1550-N router. need something that will handle 3 TV's, 2 laptops and 3 Ipads. was told to get a Linksys EA6900. How easy is it to replace these?
Incredibly easy. Linksys has the best User Interface in my opinion of any of the routers on the market. Very easy to follow instructions. Great smartphone app that allows for easy followup on what devices you are adding, etc.
Highly recommended.

Experience true digital fiber-optic surround sound audio connections with this cable that is designed to connect both standard and high-definition components by sending digital surround sound audio signals through Toslink digital audio (S/PDIF) jacks.
how can i disconnect this cable when i need to.
i jhaven't been able to disconnect cable. i've been pressing on the side of the end of the cable where it connects but haven't been able to disconnect it.
optical audio cables are push in. No buttons or release tabs to remove. the plug aligns with the female receptacle to allow for a very snug fit.
Just carefully pull on the covered end of the cable and it will come out. Don't ever pull out on the cord of any product as always.
