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.

Def good for sore "mouse" hands
on January 20, 2021
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
Good alternative if you have sore "mouse" hands. It was SUPER easy to setup with the Bluetooth, as it seems like USB ports are more and more rare on laptops. A USB dongle is also included if you need it. The ball is smooth rolling, the clicks are solid and the programming was easy to setup.
It fits nicely under my hand and helps alleviate my wrist and elbow pain from constant computer use. The only thing I would’ve liked would be a softer touch to the surface. It’s just a typical hard plastic; it would be nice to have a neoprene cover or something similar. But maybe that makes it easier to keep clean.
It claims the battery will last 2 years, but I can’t speak to that as I’ve only used it for a few weeks. But overall, I would recommend this for a small mouse space on your desk and if curling your hands around a mouse is giving you pain.

The Blue Pure 411 Auto air purifier takes a simple approach to smart air quality management with an integrated particle sensor, Auto mode setting, and LED air quality display. The ENERGY STAR certified air purifier delivers high performance with one-button control and customizable pre-filter colors in a lightweight, compact package. Independently evaluated and third-party tested for performance as part of the AHAM Verifide® Program for room air cleaners, this air purifier has a Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of 132 for fine smoke particles, 96 for pollen particles, and 107 for dust particles. Recommended for small rooms like nurseries, guest bedrooms, and home offices with a 360° air intake to completely filters room air about every 12.5 minutes (approx. 4.8x an hour at 190 ft²) on the highest speed. The 3-step combination particle + carbon filter works with Blueair's HEPASilent™ filtration technology to remove 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.1 microns, like pollen, pet dander, mold, bacteria, viruses⁰ and more, while an additional layer of activated coconut carbon traps light household odors. The one-touch enabled Auto mode is designed to help you maintain a comfortable and safe home environment. When enabled, the setting automatically adjusts to real-time conditions reported by the integrated particle sensor.

Clean air, quiet & no lights in night mode!
on January 20, 2021
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
Works well. Was super easy to setup - really just plug and go. It has multiple settings like night mode, regular, and boost etc. We put it in the bedroom and left it on "auto", but the little blue light was definitely visible in the middle of the night. Fortunately it has a "night" mode, we changed it to that and perfect for the bedroom.
Very quiet - can not hear it at all, cleans the air, and completely dark with night mode. We have it right next to the laundry basket, but you'd never know the laundry was there!

Great bidet!
on November 15, 2020
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
This bidet works great. Lots of settings to find your perfect "clean." Water temp, seat temp, nozzle positioning, water pressure, etc. are all settable. You can also set a User 1 / User 2 preferences for those as well (think user 1 / user 2 in a car that adjusts the seat etc.)
I like that it has a stainless steel nozzle. I think that will last longer than the plastic nozzles on some other models.
It has a nice modern esthetic curved lid. Note that if your toilet flush handle is on the front of your toilet, this will block the handle when up. Not a huge deal, just fyi.
Only con I noticed was on our other Bio Bidet 6800 it has an "Auto" button that automatically cycles through clean, massage, and dry with 1 touch. This unit you have to manually select each feature (so 3 separate presses if you'd like to go through the full cycle options. If I could only deduct 1/2 a star I would just for that missing feature.
I needed an adapter to make their provided connector work with my plumbing, but it was like a $5 part readily available at local hardware store. Obviously you need a power outlet nearby as well.
Overall very satisfied with it.

Super easy! “Hey Google turn on outdoor lights”
on November 15, 2020
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
Was super quick and easy to setup including linking to Google Home. Took about 5 mins to download the WeMo app, add the plug (scan the barcode on the back of it) and then link it to Google Assistant (search for WeMo).
Now I can just ask Google to turn on the Christmas lights or anything plugged into this outdoor cord. You can also setup a schedule in the app or have it automatically come on at sunset and off at sunrise with just one button click.
Planning to pick up 1 or 2 more of these for our other outdoor outlets.
The only minor quirky thing I ran into was with the app and typing the name of my city for the auto sunset/sunrise feature. I had to type out the whole name of my city vs. just a few letters.

Great sound, wired/no batteries, a bit warm for me
on November 1, 2020
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
These have very good sound quality. I put them through their paces with various games, a couple movie scenes, and some youtube "headphone" testing videos. If you close your eyes you can really feel the sound move all around you and their high/low range was very good.
I found them to be a bit warm on my ears after a while, a bit bulky, and a little snug for my head. (Maybe I have a big head?) That said it does keep them in place if you move around a lot.
I like that the mic is easy to remove if just using for listening and it is very flexible to position it exactly where you want it to get crisp clean mic audio. There’s volume and mute on the back of the left ear cup. They are both tactile and easy to get used to after you’ve worn them a bit. Since they are wired - no batteries or recharging needed.
The main cord is for plugging directly into a game controller and if you want to use with a PC then you have to add the long cord. Personally I prefer a USB connection for pc headphones – also note that the long pc cord has a splitter ends for separate mic and audio in/outputs. If you are using a laptop that only has 1 dual input/output connector, the long cable will not work.
Overall a good sounding gaming specific headset for the cost.

Easy setup Front/Rear dashcam!
on October 29, 2020
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
Nice compact dashcam that has A LOT of features. It only took me about 45 mins to install it myself in a Toyota Tundra including tucking the power and rear camera cables away under the ceiling edge for a clean installation. It’s small enough too that it’s hidden from my view while driving – mounted it right behind my rear view mirror (see pics).
Pretty much ready to go out of the box and starts recording immediately. If you don’t want to use the app, you don’t need to. Plug it in and go. It starts recording automatically and then if you want the videos, just pop out the Micro SD card and connect to a computer to download. Video looks very good – even at night.
If you do use the app, there are lots of other features. You can set everything up from either the front camera or in the app (emergency call numbers, how long you want the looping recording to be set for, video quality/resolution, you can see the recent recordings right in the app etc.)
I really like that you can just talk it and operate some useful features all hands free. You can tell it to “Lock video” to have it save the currently recording file permanently - like if you see an accident. At night I usually say “Screen Off” and it turns off the display screen so it’s not bright in the car. Ever see something crazy stopped at a light or while driving? Just say “Take Photo” and it snaps a photo – so easy!
It also can even lock the video file automatically if it senses you are in an accident by its g-shock sensor. It can even call an emergency # automatically if you’re in an accident.
Only minor issue I had was updating the firmware. It establishes a WiFi mini network connection to the camera so it was a bit tricky to connect to the camera WiFi, disconnect that WiFi to reconnect to the internet, then reconnect to the camera WiFi to upload the firmware update, but that might have been because I was in my garage during the install and also on my home WiFi on my phone, otherwise it probably would have downloaded the update via cellular data and not been an issue.
Overall, very impressive for the price.

A classy timepiece that does an EKG in 30 sec!
on October 21, 2020
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
This is the smartest and definitely best looking “smart” watch I’ve owned. It’s really amazing all it can do in a slim comfortable form factor that is also easy to read.
Pros:
Does an EKG in 30 seconds!
Does a blood oxygen level scan in 30 seconds!
Tracks steps, workouts, stairs, etc.
Comfortable - seriously the most comfortable smart watch I’ve tried and the easiest to sleep with if you want to wear while sleeping
Long battery life – says up to 30 days, but that depends on if you have all the features enabled like advanced tracking while sleeping. I’ve been getting a little over 2 weeks with everything turned on.
The small digital circle display is surprisingly readable. I normally wear reading glasses and don’t need them to read this display.
Intuitive and easy to use – the little dial works great to quickly switch modes for taking an EKG, checking oxygen level, stop watch, alarms, step tracking, etc.
Auto workout tracking
Waterproof
Ability to swap out the band easily
Very attractive watch – looks like an elegant timepiece and not a square blocky computer
Simple visual circle dial at the bottom to track your activity goal (like 10,000 steps, etc. and is configurable)
Always visible time! It displays the time like a traditional analog watch, so it’s always “on” to see the time
Withings Health Mate app is easy to use to see all your readings and integrates your tracking data with other apps like Fitness Pal, Apple Health, etc.
Cons:
Not really a con for me, but FYI that you can’t customize the display because it’s mostly analog (I think this a benefit for me, but wanted to point it out)
Other observations – I was getting inconclusive blood oxygen readings but then re-read the instructions that recommended wearing it tighter to get better contact and then worked perfectly. I prefer to wear it one band notch looser for all day wear. (I didn’t have to tighten to get accurate EKG readings).
I’m amazed at all that it can do in such a good-looking watch. Been getting lots of compliments!

Great Blender + Smoothie Go Cup!
on September 23, 2020
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
Works great for smoothies, salsa, margaritas, or anything you'd like to chop. The six blades that switch directions do the job quickly, produced nice even results and it does it faster then my old blender. I like the pre programmed settings that auto stop when they are done.
Pros:
Sturdy
Heavy duty glass blending jar
Smoothie Go Cup with lid (BPA free)
Pre programmed buttons for Smoothies, Salsa, and Milkshakes plus all the classic Low/Med/High/Pulse options
Everything is dishwasher safe
Cons:
None so far!

So quiet! Perfect for taking notes on calls!
on September 22, 2020
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
I take notes on many conference calls and I’m very conscious of the noise made by my keyboard – I don’t want to have the impression that I’m writing emails while trying to pay attention to calls.
I bought another “quiet” keyboard because the reviews said that it was “very quiet”, which compared to my old one, it was. However, THIS ONE is really almost silent. The keys have a good tactile feel and no “click” noises whatsoever. The keys are where they are expected to be so I’m not over or under reaching for things like backspace, arrow keys, etc.
I can type at the same speed and do not notice any difference in the feel of the keys. It’s very slender and just a bit narrower than my old keyboard which is important to me because I have a pretty small keyboard tray under my desk.
Also, this includes a mouse (which nowadays, most keyboards do). But this mouse is also SILENT. I can barely hear the right or left clicks. I’m not sure if this keyboard USB dongle is considered the “true” Logi Unifying dongle, but when I replaced my old Unifying dongle with the one that came with the keyboard, I immediately connected to both the new keyboard and the new mouse. That’s how easy it should be.
Highly recommend this keyboard if you want a VERY quiet typing experience. And DON’T throw the box away until you retrieve the dongle from the side flap of the box! (see picture – it’s a bit hidden in a fold of the box)

Awesome workout sunglasses with great “Bose” audio
on September 3, 2020
Posted by: ShawnInKB
from Kure Beach, NC
These are perfect sound sunglasses for working out or other outdoor activities with that awesome Bose sound. These are my new "Go To" running outside sunglasses/audio combo in one.
Pros:
Great sound – especially for not actually being in your ear at all.
Since they are not in your ear, you can better hear your surroundings which is great for running, biking, etc and being aware of cars approaching, etc.
Comfortable – at first I thought they were a tad snug with the side arms touching the side of my face, but that actually keeps them in place and were very comfortable on my regular 5K runs.
Perfect for running, biking or other outdoor activity.
Great optics – super clear sunglasses.
3 options for nose pieces for a good fit (the default “2” option was perfect for me).
Long battery life
Easy to use controls – love the tactile button under the right arm to pause, next song, previous song and because they aren’t in your ears – no pressure on your ear drums when you tap it.
Volume controls also very intuitive – just gentle swipe the right sunglasses arm forward (up) or back (down)
They can also be used for calls, but I don't answer a lot of calls while "getting the run in", so haven't tried that feature.
Double tap the side arm and access Siri or Google
Very easy to pair and Bose app is easy to use
Come with a nice protective travel case
Love the simple turn over and set down to turn off feature!
Cons:
You lose a little bit of peripheral visibility just to the left and right of the glasses due to the larger side arms (but with nothing in your ears the ability to hear your surroundings definitely offsets this, plus these larger arms give you the great battery life)
Because they aren’t in your ears, if you “bump up the volume” others that are close to you will definitely hear your music playing. These are made/designed for outside activities though – not for indoors on a treadmill, at your desk, or on a plane etc.

Best fitting case / issue with power button crack
By ShawnInKB from Pottstown, PA
Overall a great case as long as it holds up! 1st one got a crack at the power button within 2 weeks. The plastic there is just too small/not sturdy enough and I barely used it. You almost never even use the power button because it automatically comes on and off when you open and close the case. Lots of others had this same problem. On my 2nd one - 2 weeks in (so far so good, but being really gentle with it just in case.)
Otherwise a great case. Good viewing angle, great form factor, super light so it doesn't bulk up your iPad air. Keyboard takes some getting used to and keys are in weird places, but much better for typing than the on screen keyboard. Nice slim package, lets you type better, easy access to the camera, power, and charging port. Good viewing angle. Note the only slimmer full case was the OEM Appple iPad full case which I tried 1st, but it was worthless. The only viewing angles on that one were basically flat and 90 degrees so not usuable at all. Go with this one instead and careful with the area of plastic by the power button.
2nd one cracked also at the power button!!!
February 11, 2014
A few days after I wrote this review, the 2nd case broke in the exact same spot at the power button. Again, never even used the power button as it isn't needed. Serious design flaw. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

I actually have 3 questions. Is this device gfi protected? Can I control each outlet separately? I’ve yet to see a straight answer on that question What are the current and temperature ratings for the device?

No it is not GFCI, but most places require outdoor outlets to be on a GFCI in that circuit so should be covered by your GFCI outlets. No, it turns both plugs on/off simultaneously. Not sure on it's temperature rating. Didn't see any details on that in the manual.- only that it is IP44 rated.

Meet Talk GO, JLab’s compact, lightweight, and portable USB microphone. With 2 studio-quality condensers and a generous resolution of 96kHz/24BIT, this is a great entry level microphone for all around use with high performance. The Talk GO has 2 directional pattern modes to choose from and has volume and mute controls, making it great for calls, podcasts, gaming, ASMR and voiceovers using its two directional pattern modes.
 

Does it use an aux cord

It is USB connection only for connecting to your PC/Mac. There is a 3.5 aux jack on the bottom of the mic for connecting a 3.5mm headset for listening if desired. Instead I just use the output of my PC speakers to hear others on my meetings/web calls.

Cut The Cord with AirTV Player. Stream movies, TV, music and other content using a wide range of apps, including Netflix, SlingTV, Google Play and many more from the Google Play Store all with AirTV Player. AirTV’s streaming platform integrates local over-the-air (OTA) programming with your streaming services. The AirTV Adapter and an OTA antenna provide local channels like ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX, without a monthly cable bill.
 

I’m confused. How/ where does it get ota channels? Is there an antenna that comes with it? Similar to the digital antenna I use now for local channels? Or does it get the local ota channels and stream to device via the internet?

If you have an OTA antenna already you will be all set. Just unscrew the OTA coax cable from your TV and connect it to the OTA AirTV adapter (included with this item.) Then it will show the locals right in the AirTV/SlingTV same guide.

Apartment use. Currently have a TimeWarner modem router and an extender in living room. parts of living room are slow and gaps. will these replace the modem router and will range be better?

I would say yes. Our speeds tripled in the areas of our home that were slower (3rd floor and basement) from 20-27mbps to 63mbps.

I have a house built in 1930 and it is 1000 sq. ft. up and 1000 sq. ft. basement. I have 2 wifi extenders because of the solid brick and plaster walls to pick up better signal in dead areas. I currently have a Netgear 55 router. Would this work better?

I would say yes based on my results. Before I installed the Orbi I ran 5 separate speed tests on my laptop in various parts of our home. (3 story house - 2700 sq. ft).

I ran tests from each floor on my existing router (TP Link WR1043ND - a 300Mbps Wireless N Gigabit Router). Speeds averaged 43.76Mbps down and 4.35Mbps upload.

After I installed the Orbi, I re-ran the same speed tests in the same locations and speeds now average 62.83Mbps down and 5.80Mbps upload. Significantly faster!

The 2 spots in the house - top floor and basement both went from 28.56Mbps and 21.72 to 64.33 and 63.46 - so much better coverage and the Orbi's base + satellite coverage now provides equal coverage thoughout the entire home.
