Causes issues with USB 3 card reader
on June 5, 2016
Posted by: smohara1986
Verified Purchase:Yes
When I use my USB 3 card reader attached to one of these extension cords, I keep having issues where the card reader keeps getting randomly disconnected when trying to read or write to any card. I have not had issues with my very few other USB 3 devices, but considering the card reader works flawlessly when plugged directly into the computer, but fails on each of the 4 of these cables tells me it's something about the cables.

Great length
on June 5, 2016
Posted by: smohara1986
Verified Purchase:Yes
Due to my setup I'm having to run most everything with these extension cables, and I've not yet had any issues at all. The length is really helpful for the dongles for my bluetooth adapter, wireless keyboard and mouse combo, and my wireless headset.

Appears to work flawlessly
on June 5, 2016
Posted by: smohara1986
Verified Purchase:Yes
It has 2 different lights on it. One to show if it's grounded, and the other to show if it's still protecting your stuff. Unfortunately, until you have a power surge, it's hard to know if it's working, or how well it's working.

Keyboard not backlit
on June 5, 2016
Posted by: smohara1986
Verified Purchase:Yes
The mouse has a colorless laser, so using at night doesn't cause any issue at all. Unfortunately the keyboard is not backlit, but that's the only complaint I have.

It's a monitor riser
on June 5, 2016
Posted by: smohara1986
Verified Purchase:Yes
This raised my monitor a little higher than I had originally wanted, but it now provides usable space under my monitor. Don't put your monitor to close to the edge, or it will roll.

I got tired of using whatever I could find to raise my monitor. With this, it raise my monitor a little higher than I wanted, but it provides usable storage space underneath my monitor now. Just don't put the monitor too close the the edge, or it will roll.

Doesn't fit tall drives
on June 5, 2016
Posted by: smohara1986
Verified Purchase:Yes
This enclosure seems like it'd be decent, it just didn't fit my drive. The box could have been labeled better about which drives this will fit. If you have any drives that are taller than normal, this will not work at all.

It's a copy of Windows, what else can be said

Verified Purchase:Yes
I much prefer to build my own computers, and I typically run Linux. I only bought this because there's some requirements I have where I needed a copy of Windows. The install is quick and easy.

Not an active cable
on May 21, 2016
Posted by: smohara1986
Verified Purchase:Yes
The cable by itself does just what it's supposed to do. The only problem I had was just that for my computer setup I needed either an active adapter or active cable, and this is not.

Decent speakers, just not enough bass
on May 21, 2016
Posted by: smohara1986
Verified Purchase:Yes
I needed some speakers for my computer, and picked these up. They sounded really great, but lacked in the bass. If you don't mind not getting decent bass, then these will work great. If you're like me and just listen to a lot of music and movies, and want to have a little of the bass rumble, then get something with a sub.

does this have a light that shows the keys and the numbers are locked?

There are no lights on the keyboard at all that can be located, not even a power/connection indicator. There is a small light on the mouse, but it only briefly lights up when it makes connection to the computer.

Jawbone UP3 Activity Tracker: With plenty of innovative features, the Jawbone UP3 provides you with a full picture of your health. Advanced sensors measure your resting heart rate, respiration rate, sleep stages and more, and workouts are automatically logged making it easier to track and measure your activity throughout the day.
 

Does Jawbone allow you to track diet and nutrition?

I liked my Bodymedia Fit monitor because I could synch it with my computer, key in what I ate and get calories expended, steps walked, nutrition values, sleep times, heart rate, etc., etc. Does Jawbone have anywhere that you can record/synch, etc.
It does not do so directly thru Jawbone. I'm using it paired with the Under Armor apps to track everything. MapMyFitness, Record, MyFitnessPal, and then I'm pairing it with a Withings scale and app to sync weight as well.
