Nicely Simple Wet/Dry Shaver
on May 5, 2017
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
Tested it out first day in front of the mirror with just wet skin. Shaved well and didn't irritate my skin overly (just a bit more than a disposable manual razor).
Tested it the second time in the shower, warm wet shave with shave cream. Worked like a charm with no skin irritation what so ever.
Charge seems to last a good long while.
Mission accomplished.

Pretty unique little bluetooth speaker
on April 20, 2017
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
I got about 2.75 hours of music playing out of this on the first charge. Pretty good. It turns on right in pair mode, so it doesn't take long to get it setup. The sound gets fairly loud and stays fairly clear for such a small device. If you have it clipped onto your collar in a fairly normal sound environment, you will not have to have it at full volume to hear the music clearly. I took a couple phone calls on this while I was testing it and it worked well enough, but I wouldn't consider this its strength. Only has the two buttons on it (+ and -), which you use in different combinations of pressing or holding for different lengths of time for the functions. For instance, you have to hold the + key for about 2 seconds to answer an actively incoming phone call, which is the main reason why I wouldn't consider it as a primary handsfree device.

Deep. Loud. And immersive, too. SoundLink Revolve+, the best-performing portable Bluetooth speaker from Bose, delivers true 360° sound for consistent, uniform coverage. Place it in the center of the room to give everyone the same experience. Or set it near a wall so sound radiates and reflects. This wireless speaker is durable, water-resistant and easy to grab and go - with a rechargeable battery that plays up to 16 hours.

Pretty Good Portable Bluetooth Speaker All Weather
on April 6, 2017
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
This is my first Bose Bluetooth Speaker. The battery lasts a long time, it is water resistant (not waterproof!). It sounds very good. Is very easy to connect with the BOSE CONNECT smartphone app. The volume can get quite loud, but at the very high end, it sounds pretty overdriven and distorted. I am happiest with the connection via the APP, makes it very easy to use. There is a NFC connection I used with my Windows Phone (since it doesn't offer the Bose Connect App), this worked well too.

Keep your SoundLink Revolve or Revolve+ Bluetooth speaker charged and ready to go, with the SoundLink Revolve charging dock. It’s a convenient home base for your speaker, and you can play your music while it charges. Just plug the wall charger included with your speaker into the cradle. Available in Black.

Gives Your Revolve or Revolve+ a Happy Home
on April 5, 2017
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
It's a charger and it's a cradle. It does both very well. It uses the charge cord and power adapter that comes with the Revolve speaker system. Bose's customary craftsmanship and attention to detail shows on the design and construction of this premium item.
The Revolve+ has a hefty weight to it. The grooves on this charging cradle and the bottom of the Revolve speakers make sure it fits just the right way to connect the charger plates on each. You can use all the features of the speaker while it is charging on the cradle.

Max mode is about 6 minutes, but very powerful
on March 19, 2017
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
I received this free in exchange for reviewing. For a small portable vacuum, this has powerful suction in MAX mode, but only runs about 6 minutes. Normal mode still does pretty good for the things I used it for (stairs, high corner cobwebs with the attachment, automobiles) and runs between 25 and 30 minutes. It empties easily and quickly right into the trash bin, and has a washable filter. It is fairly light and easy to handle. It does have a floor roller head with typical Dyson ball movement, but I don't really see using it for much floor use, just some light hardwood floor pickup on occasion. This will now be my go to vacuum for automobiles and cobwebs. No need to bring out the Shop Vac unless its a really big messy job. Start cleaning in regular mode, then go back over trouble spots with Max mode if needed.

Very Good Mesh Home Wi-Fi for large homes
on January 15, 2017
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
Pros: The three nodes (one acts as a router, the other two as extenders) will cover very large homes in reliable Wi-Fi without the bandwidth carving of wireless extenders. Up to 6,000 square feet.
Easy to setup with a smartphone/tablet app that uses Bluetooth to talk to the nodes during setup. This process is long, but you only have to do it once.
Uses one network name (SSID) / Password for both 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz and handles switching between the nodes by your Wi-Fi devices seamlessly.
Not much to configure for those who just want reliable Wi-Fi in a large home, and don't care about a lot of technical settings/control.
Automatically updates the firmware if needed at night.
Cons: Can only use the App to configure and setup. No advertised way to use a web browser on computer for settings.
Promised Amazon Alexa voice control is not available at launch
Does not have USB ports on the nodes for printers/hard drives.
Cannot control a lot of optimization of your wifi/LAN due to limited app, i.e. cannot set DNS servers, cannot shift DHCP IP ranges.
Cannot use in Access Point (AP) mode off another established router.
Only two Ethernet ports on each node (one available on node used as router or Parent node) so limited wired connections (can use a separate gigabyte switch wired to one of the two Ethernet ports to add more connections).
As always, the updates from new firmware and App updates in the first 6 months of a Router Product launch will round out its features/useability. Looking forward most to the Amazon Alexa voice control to turn on/off the guest network, and even say out loud what the guest SSID and password is.
Compared to a NETGEAR Orbi system, this is a MESH topology

Very Easy to use wireless security cameras
on January 11, 2017
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
Wow, this system is impressive.
Pros:
Cameras are 720p I believe and the images look good.
There is a bit of a delay but not bad when view live video and using the 2 way audio to talk back and forth.
Night vision is adequate for about 15 to 20 feet.
You can adjust the sensitivity of the motion detection, and the duration of the recordings once motion is detected.
You can choose push notifications by motion or audio detection on your phone app and/or email.
You can setup/use just about everything the same whether from the computer browser login or the phone apps.
You can activate the siren (which is very loud) on the base station by motion detection or MANUALLY by the computer or phone app.
You can add a USB memory stick or Hard drive to the Base Station to have local recordings of what goes to the Cloud Storage, it will overwrite older videos first as it gets full.
Basic No-subscription Account is for up to 5 cameras and 7 days Cloud Storage.
Battery Life is amazing, have yet to come close to discharging the factory charge the rechargeable batteries came with.
The magnetic mounts that are included work very well and allow you to swivel quite a bit (they are rounded), and should work very well for indoor use.

Cons:
This system as of now does not work with my home automation controller of choice which is Wink. I hope it will in the future. Older Arlo cameras and the direct to Wi-Fi Arlo Qs (no base station) do work with Wink, so there is hope there.
Batteries have to be recharged in the camera via supplied USB charger or with a separately purchased charging station, also doesn't come with any spare batteries.
The excellent magnetic mounts that come with the unit aren't really practical for outside security cameras (too easy to take the camera), but you can purchase separately outdoor screw in mounts that work well.

Notes:
The wireless range allowable from the base station (which you plug into your router/switch/extender with a Ethernet cable) is impressive, but will be affected by the materials the signal is passing through. This system is by NETGEAR and worked flawlessly with my NETGEAR Wi-Fi system, no interference. If you do have some interference (camera images less than ideal or Wi-Fi connection problems on devices nearby) first try to move the base station (tethered with an Ethernet cable) further away from the router or extender its attached to.

A Good Replacement for an older Ninja
on January 2, 2017
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
This blender exceeded my expectations. The auto IQ features are very easy to use, and it comes with all the features needed for blending and light food processing. It has no problem with frozen fruits or ice at all. It cleans up very easy just like the older Ninjas, with a lot of the parts can go straight into the dishwasher if desired. It uses different sized attachments than my old Ninja, so can't reuse any of the cups on the new machine itself. There are a number of wonderful accessories available. I recommend the Coffee and Spice Grinder stainless steel one, its great for grinding coffee, spices, heck even making your own peanut/almond/cashew butter.

A Luxury Level Tooth Brush with an App
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
Three Modes and different intensity levels make this a great toothbrush. I use the deep clean and high intensity and it massages the gums and does a great job on the teeth as well. I've been using electric toothbrushes for a long time and this is the best one I've used, although I have to admit its been about 4 years since I bought my last one before this. The App on a smartphone connects easily to the toothbrush and will give you visual feedback on what you are doing and can keep track of your toothbrush head use and when to replace it. But after using the App for a few times, I haven't bothered with it, the toothbrush itself will let you know if it thinks you are pressing too hard when brushing. For those new to electric toothbrushes or those who really don't like brushing, the app might be just the thing to motivate you to brush your teeth and massage your gums better. A single charge lasted me about 10 days or so.

Excellent Replacement Sonicare heads
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: Loomis1975
from Kennewick, WA
These Replacement heads have a built in indicator for when to replace them, I'm looking forward to trying that feature out. These head's bristles are on the softer side, so may be too soft for those that prefer a harder bristle, but most power toothbrushes are softer by design than manual toothbrushes. They seem to clean well and fit on a variety of sonicare tooth brushes my family owns.

Where’s the fun in winning if you can’t do it your way? With the Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma, next-gen customizability is now. Armed with extra remappable buttons, Razer Chroma RGB, swappable thumbsticks and more, you’ll always be spoiled for choice when it comes to tearing up the competition.
As far as pc compatibility. Is it wired only or Bluetooth? also can I run 2 of them on my PC at once. Like for co op emulators and 2 player games
It is wired only, no batteries.
As far as multiple controllers, I only have the one, can't test 2 of them at once. On my PC right now, I have a Xbox Controller connected via bluetooth and this controller via USB and they are working like normal two controllers for co-op in Humans fall flat. The app for Xbox/PC really only looks like for programming one of them at once. You can rename your controller in the app, so maybe you plug one in, name it, program it, save profile, then unplug, plug the other one in, name it different, program it, save profile. Then plug both in and off you go? Not sure though.

Stream audio while charging your smartphone or tablet with this black Belkin CONNECT USB-C audio and charge adapter. The two ports both support charging and listening for effortless connection. This Belkin CONNECT USB-C audio and charge adapter delivers up to 60W of pass-through power and supports fast charging for compatible devices.
Description and overview both state that it is 46' long. Like as in 46 FEET long. This can't be right. Looks more like 4.6 inches. Anyone want to verify that it doesn't come with a 4.6 foot or 46 foot extension cable.
Answering my own question, tacky I know. the adapter is approximately 5 and a half inches long.
