Most pointless product from Wasserstein to date!
on December 28, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
This device negates one of the features of the Nest Cam - The removability to charge the device.
Maybe I'm missing something, but why would I want to secure this to my home (assuming outdoor application) and then require a tool to take it down to charge? Maybe other folks have less-power-hungry cams than I do, but I'm charging every other week in my busy areas so adding this chore in the name of security doesn't seem to make sense.
For hard-wired applications, or areas where security is paramount to convenience, it makes sense I guess - I just don't see how there isn't some kind of key-release or something (like a laptop security cable) instead of the allen-wrench tool that is required to unscrew the tether on this. It would be a useful add for situations where takedown charging was never necessary, or pitch positioning wasn't required that the mount doesn't support. It basically locks it into a set position and wouldn't support several of my angle use cases.

A miniature of Wasserstein's Hub Max Stand
on December 28, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
This stand is a perfect miniature version of their stand for the Hub Max - Its perfect for my Home Hub (2nd Gen) device on my nightstand. Really looking forward to the durability and quality I get from my other stand.
It raises the devices about 2 inches and allows for rotational and pitch adjustment of the screen. It holds the device and its cabling securely and provides some cable management for the length of the cord in shorter reach applications.
5/5 stars! Highly recommend! Google should just buy these guys and add these accessories as the official parts!

Cool light towers if you have a stationary setup..
on October 31, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
I got these thinking they would be cool behind my monitor for ambient effects while gaming/watching movies on my ultrawide monitor.
What I hadn't taken into account is that these are stand-based and my monitor is on an articulating arm. This made may layout super critical and added footprint to how I would set these lights up.
I was surprised at how small the stands were - Very small footprint for how tall they are. They installed in seconds and were able to connect to their software experience perfectly on the first try.
The cool thing is that the bars on the towers are reversible, so I was able to plug them in to face the wall, so that the lighting could be ambient and no direct facing the monitor. This setup looks great.
If you're looking for a color system to start with, iCUE seems to have great config options and an ecosystem of products to keep in sync. Highly reccomend the software!

The choice is yours. Whether you prefer making single cups of coffee with *K-Cup pods or full-sized carafes from coffee grounds, the nutribullet Brew Choice Pod + Carafe has the goods to brew both. Just insert your *K-Cup pod or filter, and the machine’s Brew Sense Technology will automatically adjust its display to match, giving you options to brew a 6, 8, or 10oz cup of *K-Cup coffee, or a 6, 9, or 12-cup carafe.

Small footprint, large capacity, flexible brewer!
on October 31, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
The NutriBullet Choice just took the top spot on our countertop as the new primary coffee machine in the house! How did it get there? Here's how:
The product has an excellent small footprint, with water storage behind the carafe, lending it to a slender appearance. The water reservoir is large, but tucked away behind the coffee compartment and carafe, lending to a narrow, but deep overall stature.
The highlighted feature of this system is that it doubles as both a FULL 12-cup coffee maker with NO compromises (and doesn't require those Keurig K-Cup carafe pods to make a full pot!). At the same time, if you're like my wife and I, many days we just need single cup convenience. Gone are the days where a separate pod-maker lined our kitchen counters - Now the NutriBullet Choice is the coffee maker to beat them all!
The system comes with adapter parts to convert into a single-serve maker that works just like the major brands, but is such a simple machine - No complicated mechanics here. Just pop in a pod into the adapter basket above, set the single-cup stand over the pot warmer, and you've got a single-serve unit during the week, or a pot coffee maker on the weekends for those multi-cup Sunday mornings.
Everything worked perfectly. The system recognizes the adapters and changes its single-dial menu options appropriately. It brewed a GREAT cup of coffee in both modes, and brews pretty quickly also.
Only ONE complaint - And it's minor folks... I wish there were some way to keep the extra parts for the single-cup mode stored when not in use - When I make a pot, I don't want to lose that tray and pod adapter set. For now they go in a drawer, but when this thing becomes the RV coffee maker next fall, it might be more of a challenge to keep all of the components organized.
In all I think this hits a sweet spot with many people who want Single-cup convenience, and access to a full 12-cup pot in one maker. Highly reccomended!

Convenient Charging for Nest-Centric Homes
on October 31, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
Wasserstein can always be relied on to produce products that really augment/improve the Google Home/Nest device experience. Their products are well constructed, and are always an exact fit for their Google counterparts. The Dual Charging Station for Nest Cam Battery is no exception!
The product magnetically attaches to the cameras for a secure fit, and can fully charge two cameras simultaneously with the supplied AC adapters. This makes a HUGE different for those of us with 3-4 cameras that always seem to need a fresh charge. This product has become an indispensible part of my home office.
The packaging is reliably minimalist and small - And the charger (sans cameras attached) has a VERY small footprint. I applaud Wasserstein for using USB Type C on the product so that in the event of cord damage, one can easily be replaced on the open market (this is a future Google has tried to help drive, but these cameras were their first departure from it for a while... Its nice to see Wasserstein giving me a way to use these cameras with a Type-C standard charger if needed.
Overall I HIGHLY reccomend this to anyone with more than 1 battery cam, and BEHOOVE those of you with more than 3 to pick one of these up. You're going to need it!

The indoor Nest Cam knows the difference between a person, pet, and vehicle, and alerts you about the things that matter to you, instead of the things that don't. 24/7 live view shows you what’s happening from anywhere.* With 3 hours of free event video history, you can go back and see what you missed. And it comes in different colors to fit your style. The indoor Nest Camera requires the Google Home app and a Google Account – it’s not compatible with the Nest app or the home.nest.com site.

Great wired solution for indoor use cases
on October 15, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
I've been a user of Nest's cameras for a few months and added the wired cam when it became available.
The camera is smaller than the battery powered cameras, but has a nice heavy base that can either sit on a shelf or be mounted with screws to a wall or ceiling for LOTS of mounting and location potential - It also includes an extra-long cord to make connecting to available power easy.
The camera behaves and works just like its already released Nest Cam counterparts. It configured simply in the Google Home app (the Nest app doesn't work with any of these newer cameras) and responded quickly when accessed from motion alert notifications.
For those concerned with privacy, options are available to only have the camera record when you're away from home, or to only record video (since audio recordings inside your home COULD be a privacy nightmare. Google gives you these choices from the initial setup process and additional tweaks to notifications and trigger rules can be found once set up in the app.
Recording retrieval was just like the other Nest Cams as well, but this interface is different for the newer devices than it is for legacy Nest cameras and doorbells and I honestly prefer to Google Home interface of the older cameras to that of the newer. The timeline is unintuitive and slower to search/scroll through that the old "event history" pages.
This Nest Wired Cam was added to a Google Home full of existing indoor and outdoor devices, and was a flawless/smooth installation. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a wired indoor camera solution (though I believe it also works outdoors) and wants a compact but sturdy solution that integrates SEAMLESSLY with Google Home.

Fantastic small massaging ball
on October 5, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
The ball is my new go-to for lighter massage and smaller area coverage. It provides a good medium vibration and is just small enough to work just about anywhere and be used well in the hand.
The battery access is quite simple also - The ball "twists" and then can be opened in half and the batteries are able to be changed from the center of the device.
The ball holds together well, and seems made of VERY durable material, but I've not tested its water/moisture resistance. With the device able to be fully opened, I would be wary of using excessive oils or water-based lubricants on the device, as the seal doesn't seem to be totally fluid-tight.
This is a great massager for the cost, that seems to be well constructed of durable materials. I'd highly recommend.

The Beurer BR60 Insect Bite Healer uses natural heat to dissolve saliva, venom, and other irritants caused by insect bites. Direct heat application via a ceramic hot plate acceleratres the body's natural healing response to reduce itching and swelling, chemical-free. There is a 6 second application time for regular use, or a short 3 second treatment for sensitive skin. For best results, use immediately after insect bites. Suitable to soothe all types of insects bites like mosquito, spider, bee, chigger, flea, bed bug, wasp, ants, etc. For adults and kids ages 12+ with adult supervision.

Nice little soother for bug bites!
on October 5, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
My daughter now calls this thing "The bug bite gun"...
We received the Beurer Insect Bite Healer just days before my youngest daughter (7) had an unfortunate run-in with a wasp. She was stung in the hand, and we thought it a perfect opportunity to try out the insect bite healer.
For those of you unfamiliar with "insect bite healers", its a small device that provides warm compress to the affected area, somewhat forcing any venoms from the bite, and helping sooth pain or itching resulting from the bite.
The device worked really well, running on two AAA batteries, providing a warming comfort and alleviating the burn from the wasp bite. It didn't completely remove the pain, but reduced it significantly, and the bite did heal quickly.
My daughter was so impressed and distracted by its use that she now asks if we have the "bug bite gun" whenever she plays outside and fears the wrath of other bees/wasps. Very cute.
All in all it worked great when needed and is a great compact device that you can take anywhere to give comfort when bites happen.

Trouble-free printing without subscriptions!
on September 23, 2021
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Lebanon, OH
For the past several year’s I’ve subscribed to the idea that printing in the home would reduce to an almost non-existent level, and that the subscription-based ink services attached to other brand’s print products were they way to go.
Around that same time, EPSON introduced the EcoTank system. The key advantage here is that the ET series printers don’t require a recurring subscription but carry a MASSIVE amount of low-priced ink, bringing them into the same economic position as their pay-to-print counterparts.
There’s just one difference: While the total cost of ownership (or TCO) is roughly the same, if you print photos or do a good deal of printing, the EcoTank model suits your home better. That diminishing demand on print in my house? It’s never come to fruition. We were struggling to keep our printing under 50pages/month, especially with the kids home from school last year and the Mrs and I both working from home, not to mention that photo projects usually drained the installed ink from our system and required a lengthy wait to resume the project while we awaited our next shipment.
The ET-4850 is one of the higher-end EcoTank models, boasting a large paper tray, auto-document feeder, and a good scanner. It handles two-sided printing with ease, and has a smaller footprint than most other printers with its feature set.
Prints are fast in both B&W and color, and printing is relatively quiet, though the start of a job is as loud as any other inkjet.
These EcoTank printers have another advantage that I haven’t utilized. It’s apparently easy to swap the stock ink for Dye Sublimation ink for making T-shirt transfers and other crafts. There are lots of guidance online for this, but please be advised that EPSON only supports (and warranties) the device with its own ink.
In the end I’m telling friends and family that print a significant amount (or do ANY photo work) to switch to tank-based solutions, I’m glad I did.

Is this a good printer for sublimation?

Check with your dye manufacturer if they have sublimation dye for the 4850s yet, or compatible with the EPSON 502 ink. That’s the set these take.

Is this a short throw projector?

Not based on short-throw definitions. I was able to use this 7-9 feet from the wall/screen with good image quality, focus sharpness, and brightness, but getting closer would yield focal limits and a really small net screen.

The Brydge 12.3 Pro+ wireless keyboard with touchpad matches the quality and functionality of the Surface Pro 4,5,6, and 7 seamlessly. Designed to meet the standards set by Microsoft, the Brydge 12.3 Pro+ features a precision touchpad, adjustable viewing angles and 3-level backlit keys, bringing a laptop-like experience to your Surface Pro.
 

Is the keyboard's bluetooth 5.0 backwards compatible with a bluetooth 4.0 device (ex. a Surface Pro 3)?

Its only dimensionally-compatible with the Surface Pro 4 and higher. I don't think its a Bluetooth stack limitation as much as the physical dimensions for the SP3 are thicker, so the clasps won't work, but I think the SP3 might have had other functional limits working with this newer version.
