Excellent affordable security system
on March 27, 2018
Posted by: charliehustle77
from Virginia
This system is easy to install out of the box. Any amateur DIYer with a little bit of time can put this system up with zero issues. The alarm seems loud enough to scare the normal sketchball off, and if not I'm pretty sure they sell a louder alarm. Kind of weird that they don't include a loud alarm, but I get it. They offer lots of additional add-ons at pretty affordable prices. Key fobs, carbon monoxide sensors, glass break sensors etc.
This is the newer version of the simplisafe alarm and it looks really sharp. There are a few downsides I can think of. You do have to pay for the service, but it's relatively affordable. There may be 1 or 2 cheaper options in the self-install security system. I also wish simplisafe integrated with home automation systems and I wish they had an outside camera. Having a total solution from top to bottom would be ideal but maybe they will eventually come out with this.
Either way, for what you're getting here it seems worth it to me.

Insignia bluetooth alarm clock w/Google Assist
on March 7, 2018
Posted by: charliehustle77
from Virginia
I found this speaker with google assistant useful for exactly what it's made for, an alarm clock. Don't expect to get top dollar speakers out of this little device. We used it for our infant while bathing him. We'd throw on some music to keep him calm and relaxed and then set an alarm on the Insignia just by telling google to do so, since holding up a small squirmy child in the sink with both hands, fooling around with devices isn't an option. The speakers were good enough to keep him happy. Upon turning it up high, you'll find highs and lows missing that would be found in higher tier, more expensive speakers.
We have had the speaker do weird things like we'd be sitting in another room talking and all the sudden google would announce "Playing Fast Car by Tracy Chapman" even though we didn't ask it to do so.. That freaked us out a bit, so we usually turn the mic off now, because it's always listening and that's pretty weird in itself.
If this is the type of thing you're looking for then pick one up. You're not going to throw it outside and have a block party with the neighbors but if you need hands free assistant at an affordable price, this will do just fine.

Great surround bar-ish sound system
on January 19, 2018
Posted by: charliehustle77
from Virginia
First off the way this system is boxed is the way all electronics should b packaged. Open the back of the box and your accessories and everything is right there for you to access. Brackets for wall mounting are included.
I replaced my older Samsung soundbar with this one and the Polk seems to sound much better. Does it sound like a true surround sound? No. I don't think that will ever be accomplished with just a sound bar, but I can feel different levels of depth in the sound thru the Polk...if that makes sense.
The night mode voice adjust on the Polk is good for nights when the baby is in bed and you don't want the sounds of Deadpool bass blaring thru your speakers, but you still need to hear Wade Wilsons jokes. The sub-woofer has a clean bass sound and looks more appealing than the previous model I had. The wireless sub-woofer connected easily with the soundbar. No problems.

The only thing that I don't particularly care for is there is 3 settings. Movie, Sports and Music. While my samsung cheapo soundbar had lots and lots of different options to fine tune the sound you like. Granted, with the samsung I always used the same setting for everything. So is it really that important? I have found that the movie setting works best on this system.
I will eventually be purchasing the 2 rear speakers for this unit, but as of now this soundbar and sub alone are sounding great. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a soundbar that you can add 2 wireless surround speakers to in the future, but isn't too picky about how many sound settings the unit has.

Nice addition to my "Smart Home"
on December 17, 2017
Posted by: charliehustle77

First off, make sure you have a "Hub" to use these. Once you have that you can control many different bulbs thru the app. These bulbs go from dim to daylight bright with the touch of an app. The app allows you to control the bulbs and how they react. You can also use these with Alexa for easy voice control. Really cool item!

Excellent tool for business owners.
on December 17, 2017
Posted by: charliehustle77
from Virginia
This is a great tool to have for business owners and professionals who have a need to edit pdfs, create forms and many other features that you won't be able to get from other downloadable programs online.
Working in the print industry for many years and having to sometimes use subpar software from questionable companies in order to do anything other than print pdf's, this is a very welcome addition to my business.
I have created forms, easily edited pdf's and used many of the other services that are offered with Adobe Pro DC.
I think it is worth the cost and have already included it in my budget for next year. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone in an industry who does not have a pdf editing software. Don't waste your time and money on a product that is inferior. This will do the trick and the cost is small in comparison to what you get.

Good sounding speaker with connection issues
on November 28, 2017
Posted by: charliehustle77
from Virginia
To start off the sound quality from the blast is top notch. Very clear and a decent but not overpowering amount of bass.
I like the feel of this speaker as well as it is rubberized and feels rugged like you can take it with you to the beach or camping as it is IP67 rated for sound and dust.
The only issue, and it's a pretty big issue, is the connectivity issues I experienced while using the blast. Alexa and my bluetooth automatically just disconnects after a bit of time. I've tried to reconnect thru the app and eventually I have to set the whole thing up again thru the app like a new device. Not something I want to do every time I want to play music or use Alexa.
I'm assuming that this is something that can be corrected thru a software update and is possibly just a glitch. I'm giving it 3 stars because I feel the sound is good and when it's working, Alexa is fun to play around with. I'm also giving this 3 stars with the expectation that the connectivity issues will be fixed with this speaker.
As of this time I would not recommend the blast due to the price and current issues with the speaker. Once the connection issues are hammered out, I would recommend it.

Great sound and quality built headphones.
on October 23, 2017
Posted by: charliehustle77
from Virginia
I have to say, these headphones are officially my go-to headphones and have amazed me so far.
Unboxing and Build Quality: A very attractive box and packaging holds the headphones and the hard shell case which is also very nice. First impressions of the headphones are that the build quality is top notch. The outside of the ear cups feels like it has a rubberized coating on them. The rubberized ear cups that surround the ear are buttery soft and match the feel of the piece that sits on the top of your head. They're easily adjustable for head size and fold flat to lay on your neck when not in use. These feel comfortable sitting on my head, even for long periods. No ear pain or sweat although I didn't exactly try to sweat with them on, they're too nice.
Sound Quality: Another positive for these headphones. To fully unlock the full potential on these headphones you need to download the Headphones Connect app. There you can fine tune all the sounds to your specificity. There is an equalizer that allows you to precisely adjust the sound the way you want it to sound including several presets. There is something on these called clear bass in which you can hear extremely deep bass without distortion.
Noise cancelling: The noise cancelling on these works great allowing you to select the environment you are in at the moment in order to cancel out more or less noise. There are several different features that I don't really understand or haven't figured out yet in the noise cancelling department. They're all a little different and can be accessed by pressing one of the two tactile buttons on the headphones, the other button is the power button.
Controls: Another awesome feature on these headphones are the way they're controlled. You swipe up or down on the outside of the right ear piece for volume control and left and right to skip tracks forward or back. There's also a way to control siri and other voice activated services. One last super cool feature is that you can place your whole hand on the side of the right ear and it will basically turn down the volume on whatever your listening to and allow you to hear outside activities. So when your significant other is talking to you while you're wearing these, you don't have to remove the headphones you just place your hand on the side. While reading about all of this seems kind of gimmicky, it's actually not at all and works much better than other more expensive headphones that I've tried. You're not feeling around for buttons or having to learn where things are, you just swipe. Bluetooth connectivity is also super quick unlike some speakers and headsets that you have to play around with to get it to work.
You've gotta try these out. They are the best headphones I've tried out at this price point. Try out the app and the controls and I guarantee you'll fall in love just like I did.

Amazing color and clarity even in a well lit room.
on October 18, 2017
Posted by: charliehustle77

First time projector owner here. I'm primarily using it for displaying powerpoint presentations at work and possibly displaying items on a large wall in a well lit church
Being a first time projector owner, I followed all the instructions in the quick start guide and had it up and running in no time. I first tried this out in a well lit house in the middle of a bright day on just my wall. I was amazed to see the deep colors and the clarity of images this projector produces in an extremely well lit room. I couldn't wait to get it to work and try it out, where it has performed great so far in our dimly lit conference room.
Things I like about this projector are the multiple input connections including 2 hdmi and a wi-fi adapter, size of the projector and bag is smaller than expected and light, remote which allows zooming without having to use your laptop, ridiculously easy setup and extremely bright and crisp image quality.
The projector does get hot so make sure you have space around it so it can breathe. Other than that I can't think of anything that would dissuade me from buying this projector for my business or church setting.

As always, Bose delivers!
on October 10, 2017
Posted by: charliehustle77

The SoundSport Free is another excellent product from Bose. These fit perfectly in my ears and although they feel a bit clunky and big while in your ears, they haven't fallen out at all and have fit snugly while working out or wearing them. There are 3 different size of rubberized pieces that should accommodate most sized ears.
Sound quality is what you have come to expect from Bose, excellent. I feel as though it's perfectly balanced with maybe slightly more bass than needed, but I enjoy more bass in my music so that works for me.
The battery on these is said to last 5 hours of use but these come with a small charging container that when not plugged in gives you 2 additional full charges. That's pretty awesome. The charging case is kind of tricky to open, I have to use a decent amount of pressure and both hands to get it open. It would've been cool to have some type of spring loaded device, but I can't complain. There is a magnet inside the charging case that pulls and holds the earbuds in their charging position while they're in there.
Pairing was easy as usual and I would highly suggest you download the Bose connect app. It helps with pairing and you can rename your device if you'd like. The coolest thing about the app is the 'Find my Buds' app which shows the last location that you used your earbuds, both left and right. Mine gave me a perfect location of my townhouse but since someone lives below us, it showed their address. Either way this will give you a pretty precise idea of the last place you used your earbuds.
If you have issues with another company's earbuds sliding out of your ears while working out or the quality doesn't feel quite where it needs to be, but these. They're quality buds and well worth the money.

Sturdy design, great performance.

Wow.15-1HT by Acer is an exceptional little chromebook.
Build quality on the outside is brushed aluminum and the bottom feels like a rubberized material. Super nice, thin and it's very lightweight. You're working with 2 USB3.0 ports, a headphone jack, a micro SD slot and 2 USB Type C ports on the left and right which can be used to charge the chromebook. It also has bluetooth and a camera that is decent quality. Battery life is said to be around 12 hours on a charge which takes around 3 hours for a complete charge, I haven't used it for 12 hours yet, but battery life is seemingly very good for the limited time I've used it.
The screen is a IPS multi touch lcd panel at 1920x1080. It feels silky smooth when using the touch screen.. Colors and graphics in videos and movies actually look great on this! The keyboard is backlit, but not overpowering like a gaming laptop. 2 nice size speakers sit on the left and right of the keyboard delivering a nice quality upward facing sound for a machine so small.
For someone that uses most google software products, the chromebook is a pleasure to use and the touchscreen is an excellent add on. The google software on it is extremely easy to use and would even be good for a younger person or a person who is not so tech savvy. I would definitely recommend this little chromebook to anyone!

Minimize movement and maximize comfort with ERGO M575—a wireless trackball with sculpted ergonomic shape. With no need to move your arm around to move the cursor, your hand and arm stay relaxed. Remarkably smooth and responsive cursor control works perfectly on any surface. Connect simply via Bluetooth Low Energy or the included USB receiver with a 33 ft (10 m) range.
hi, the M575 has only been available on Logitech's site in graphite and off-white colors. Guess best buy is having it now... is this "black" color really black? or is it the same graphite-gray that logitech sells on their site?
The part number on the black M575 from Best Buy does not match the part number for the graphite version from Logitech. I would guess they are not the same.

How comfortable are they? Do they feel like they're going to fall out with rigorous exercise (running) or do they have a secure fit a majority of the time?
These fell out of my ears while I was doing nothing. They don't feel secure. The sound on these are great but working out and exercising with these on will probably not be a good idea.
