Picked this receiver up on clearance sale for outdoor patio sound system build.
Pros: Works fantastic for our setup. Has dual subwoofer outputs. Easy installation and setup menus.
Cons: Wish it had dual hdmi outputs but for the price I couldn't turn it down. Also wish it didn't have the spring loaded connectors on rear of unit. Would have expected a more robust connector.
Best Buy protection plan even covers the unit from humidity! No brainer purchase.

I read lots of bad reviews on these. I'm happy to respond that mine have been outstanding so far. Zero issues. Great sound. Durable. I wear them when I'm working out and mowing the grass so they are always sweaty/dirty.

This was actually for my wife who had lost her fitbit one. She didn't want to pay $150 for a pedometer so we upgraded to the AppleWatch. She's been really pleased with the cross functionality the watch provides. Battery life is excellent and will last all day. She charges every night along with her iPhone 6 Plus.

The same Apple designers who meticulously craft and refine iPhone also create these cases. The silicone form fits snugly over the volume buttons, Sleep/Wake button, and curves of iPhone 6s Plus or iPhone 6 Plus without adding bulk. The soft microfiber lining on the inside helps protect your iPhone. And on the outside, the silky, soft-touch finish of the silicone exterior feels great in your hand. Choose from 11 bright colors.

This is a follow up case to replace the original one just like it. Original one lasted about 15 months before it delaminated substantially. Wife loves it and uses her phone at work so she is constantly taking it out of her jacket pocket and/or purse to use it.

Running as many as 20 trail cams means you buy AA batteries in large quantities. :)
Duracell has always been a solid consistent performer in all of my electronics. Don't ever recall getting a bad one and I can't say that for any other brand I've used.

Picked this unit up to add ups for our projector mounted in ceiling. Wanted something cheap and replaceable that was also small so I could mount it in attic for easy replacement later on. Batteries die in these things over time.

Need a classroom projector to use with a Smartboard and also show movies on big wall screen . Any suggestions?

Epson models around $500 are perfect for this. Too bright for home theater but work great for presentations and movies thrown on the wall.

How do you submit a rebate request for Epson 5030 bought from best buy. There isn't anything on my receipts

My rebate was through Epson direct. I don't recall seeing any BestBuy rebates on Epson projectors. I think Epson controls pricing floors very strictly and any rebates are done in house. Might check with them.
Fwiw my rebate from them included a free replacement bulb and both the check and the bulb arrived in a couple of weeks after I submitted my paperwork. I was shocked it was processed and returned so quickly.

The NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Router, with breakthrough Tri-Band WiFi 5 delivers multiple bands for homes with many WiFi devices. WiFi speed up to 3.2Gbps and 6 high performance antennas provide maximum speed and range. Smart Connect allows you to game, stream, and download mega-sized files without lags.
 

Less dropped wireless signals

I can only get 1.5 mbps from CenturyLink at our house (I can't seem to get an answer from CL why this is so). I have the combination modem/router from CL. Using my laptop wirelessly in another part of the house, my connection seems to be turned off and on erratically. Buffering is very slow and frequent when I watch movies. Will this router improve my internet situation?
Short answer: Absolutely!!
Like anything in life that comes in a combo your modem/router combo is really good on the modem side and totally sucks on the router side. Get the NetGear router and make sure to have your current router turned off so they aren't interfering. I'm certain you will no longer have any connection issues. For years I fought this with ATT combo modem/routers and constantly had weak signal issues as well as printer connectivity issues. Finally a technician for HP recommended a third party router and since that day no more issues. That was 2010 fwiw. My current home has 24 connected devices to the NetGear Nighthawk and it performs flawlessly. Of the 24 I have an iMac, 2 matchbook pros, 2 iPads, 3 iPhones, 2 printers, 5 directv boxes, a ps3 and several smart tv's connected to it. I'm certain I have left out some but you get the idea. :)

How about DSL

does anyone know how the Nighthawk R8000 on DSL
I can tell you it works fantastically on both UVerse Max Turbo 24mb and HughesNet which is probably slower than your DSL. Coverage area is best on the market for signal strength. You can always got to a cat6 cable from the modem to your router as this can potentially be a choke point for data transfer.

Control up to 8 devices using this Logitech Harmony 650 915-000159 universal remote that is compatible with more than 225,000 devices across more than 5,000 brands for wide-ranging use. One-touch activity buttons simplify option selection.
 

Earlier Version

We have this remote which we bought around 5 years ago. It is glitchy and does not work well to say the least. Looking on all the websites, it seems that this remote is one of the best universals out there. Has anyone had an earlier version of this model and noticed improvements with this one? Could we have just gotten a lemon? I am hesitant to buy the same model since we have had so much trouble with our current one. Thanks!
Definitely return it. I have two of these and they work flawlessly. For the price I can't imagine why anyone would pay more to do the same things.
Could possibly be the setup if you didn't fully complete each method.
The website to setup can be a bit slow to load but once it loads it works pretty quickly through the steps.

Rebate Offer

Is the current Epson mail in rebate offer for a replacement lamp for the 5030UB or 5030UBE valid for a projector purchased at Best Buy?
Yes! I received my replacement lamp about 4 weeks after I submitted the rebated form.

are there projectors that do not need a computer?

While many speakers have a PowerPoint presentation, either on disc or flash drive, sometimes a speaker has a disc or flash drive made on some other program. Do projectors exist with built-in software independent of computer?
Yes. Most presentation style projectors have a usb drive where files can be displayed. You can toggle through the slides using the remote for the projector. Epson makes a great one for around $400 that I use weekly for presentations. Epson VS330 is the model.

How do I set up my cox cable box so I can watch it through my projector?

Is your cox cable box hd? If so run the Hdmi cable that would go to your tv to your projector. If you have a receiver run the Hdmi cable there and then the out Hdmi cable to your projector. Sound is your only variable.

Help in selecting a home theater projector.

Replacing old projector that is approx. 12' from screen. The fixed screen is 48 x84.
What type of a projector by Epson will fit my needs?
We have the Epson 5030ub projector. It has a variable zoom to accommodate different size screens.
We currently have ours hanging from the ceiling about 16 feet away projecting onto a 120" diagonal screen that is approximately 10 feet wide and 6 feet wide.
