Great for what it does
on July 12, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
Rug Doctor is available for rent at many hardware and grocery stores.
The one I have looks different. Not boxy, It’s like an upright vac on steroids
I read the instruction booklet thoroughly before using.
My only complaint is it’s so heavy getting it upstairs in a two story home. Also I had to bring it up the stairs to get it inside my condo.
It must have a done a good job as the dirty water container was not clear when I emptied it.
Opened a lot of windows and used it the first time on a sunny but somewhat cool day.
Carpets in the house dried overnight and looked reasonably clean the next day.
Second time I used it on the carpets in my one bedroom condo. I have way too much carpet in there. Only have vinyl flooring in kitchen and where shower/toilet is.
Spilled hot oatmeal where my Chromebox work station is. Cleaned up pretty good at first. But after a full day of drying, stain appeared but wasn’t as visible as before. Office chair left some black marks that didn’t clean up well. Dining room floor carpets did clean up tho. I used Rug Doctor pre-treat stain remover too. Bought it at my local Safeway Food & Drug.
Overall results were acceptable from this well know brand.
But you can only do so much with carpets. Even the pros can’t do more for you.
Just so you know I don’t have any pets.

Provides a Solid Connection for audio use
on June 25, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
Not a whole of things to mention about this neat audio adapter.
Product webpage on Best Buy sez for Apple iPhone 7s and above but box sez iPhone 7 to iPhoneX.
if you like to store your music library on an iPhone and/or stream a music service or listen to podcast while driving or at home, this a great accessory.
My vehicles don’t have 3.5 mm jacks but my Polk Magnify Mini Sound System does.
And I have seen some Bluetooth wireless speakers with AUX ports on the back of them.
There are also a lot of PC’s with a headphone jack. Sound quality might not be that great tho.
I do appreciate the expanded sound options of using a home sound system instead of just relying on using a wireless or corded headset on my mobile phone.
Sometimes it can take a little bit of effort to get Bluetooth going. Wired connections are rock solid in general.
Good accessory to have just in case it’s needed.

Convenient, easy to set up and use.
on June 22, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
This starter kit comes with the hub and three smart A19 light bulbs. A19 means they are white LED bulbs designed for long life and a good level of brightness.
What I immediately noticed is how small the hub is. Very good if space is tight. The hub can be used on a wired internet connection to the back of a LAN port on your wireless router. Or it can be used on home Wi-Fi in wireless mode.
Install the Android or iOS app, create an account, sign in and then follow the instructions on the app to set up the lightning. Make sure firmware is updated by studying the owner manual. And of course the app should be updated from time to time.
If you really like this product, you can buy an Alexa or Google Assistant device so you don’t have to carry or be near your phone. These devices are available in many different form factors and can come integrated into a Bluetooth wireless speaker. Some devices are small enough to fit into a plastic housing frame that plugs into an electrical outlet.
I have one light bulb for my bedroom so I don’t stub my toes on the bed frame when it’s dark.
Have another light bulb in my living room near the center of my one bedroom condo floor plan.
I might install the third light bulb inside the overhead light fixture above my kitchen sink. Not sure if this works well in an enclosed light fixture but willing to give it a try.
Lightning can be set up to go on/off per a schedule on the app. Very good feature for folks who spend days away from home. Brightness level and warmth adjusting also available on the app.
If you live in an area with blackouts, it might be a good idea to buy a backup battery supply.
At any rate this type of automated lightning rocks and I recommend it to anyone who seeks this kind of modern convenience.

Stylish and feature rich
on June 16, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
This is my first time out with an ASUS product.
Used the website to set it up even tho I have the Android app installed.
Noticed an immediate increase of internet speed on my Chromebook which runs on Wireless-AC. Old router was a single band N model. Blue Cave has the latest Wi-Fi features which includes AC.
Had a hard time getting some of my LoT connected devices set up again. The Google stuff was the easiest.
Note my two Geeni Wi-Fi light bulbs and power strip didn’t survive the switch to the new router.
What I need to do next is to hook up my old single band N router to the ASUS Blue Cave and see what happens. It did help get one of my cameras going again.
Firmware check shows I’m up to date.
OG Pixel phone had no issues connecting to both 2.4 GHz and 5.0 bands.
Same with gaming laptop PC and Chromebox. Printing on all PC’s OK as it was before.
Must say this router does have an unusual appearance.
Footprint takes up a bit less space than the conventional shaped router I was using.
I did make sure I have separate SSID’s and passwords for both bands.
Most LoT devices only run on the 2.4 band which sucks so if shopping for new devices, try to get dual band features.
As for security features as they relate to LoT connected devices, only time will tell if I do have added protection against the bad guys.

They work - what more can I say ?
on May 30, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
Quick set up guide and owner’s manual is online, nothing in the box that it came in.
Pretty straight foward to get going.
It found my OG Pixel with no problems.
Listened to Google Play Music free radio station as I always do.
Sound quality just fine. So is the fit.
Love the hook that goes over each ear.
Probably won’t lose any of these earbuds.
Good !
If U use Siri or the Google Assistant, this is the way to go.
Google Assistant worked as intended just so U know. But still have to use phone first to hear any responses.
Assuming U like to use a voice assistant, these earbuds are a great option.
Sorry don’t have more to add.
Hope U have many enjoyable hours using it :-)
I know I will.

A natural extension of UR phone
on May 30, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
Came in a handsome square shaped box with a clip stand and charging cable.
I had already installed the Android app but couldn’t finish setup as battery was too low.
Might be able to use the wall charger that came with my OG Pixel phone, as it uses USB-C also.
After charging the device to 85% I mounted it to the included clip stand and then attached it to the top of a coffee cup.
Took three clips and then used OG Pixel phone to cast it to a family room TV. What fun that was !
After a few minutes, I realized I could have used the clip stand to place it on the kitchen table.
There is an optional, small tripod and carrying bag I might purchase to get more out of the Clips.
I do like the option of just saving clips to the device and not being forced to upload to the cloud.
Just so U know I have been using Google Photos since it came out three years ago and don’t mind storing photos and videos on the cloud. By doing this I can use any internet enabled device to look at my content.
I view the Google Clips as a natural extension of my phone and can’t wait to visit a relative with two dogs and use the device at several family gatherings later this year.

AI for Photography is great fun and I look forward to saving those special moments.
I highly recommend this product. And not just for families or people with pets.

Great product from a well know brand
on May 29, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
I have been eyeing a pair of Truly Free Bluetooth Wireless Earbuds since last year.
Have experience with other corded JVC headsets and jumped on this pair.
It paired easily with my OG Pixel phone.
Played some Google Play Music, free radio station, classical music. Sound quality was fine.
Love the way you gently twist them to lock onto your ears, so you don’t lose them.
First time out I used them for two hours with no discomfort experienced.
Did encounter a bit of crackling sound after a while, but it went away in a few minutes.
It was nice to see a handy carrying pouch in the box. Also to find out the product is washable.
Having a bit of neon green lettering helps to find them in the pouch too.
I’m glad I got these and recommend them for anyone looking for a basic Bluetooth wireless earbuds.

Good experience over all
on May 26, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
Impressive looking machine when I took it out of the box. Gray and black looks all business. But requires a bit more attention wiping down the black colored sides after a cleaning.
Love the idea of the included remote w/batteries.And the large dust bin really helps. I can probably use this vac on my condo flooring twice, before having to empty the bin.
Don’t like the idea of making the Samsung Mobile browser the default on my OG Pixel phone. Also the robot vac only supports Wi-Fi 2.4 Ghz band as do other Internet of Things devices. This can play havoc with some routers that do a lot of auto switching such as a high powered gaming router. Be sure to have different SSID’s for each band your router supports. That might do the trick.
Alexa and the Google Assistant is supported. For now I’m sticking with the remote.
Battery was not fully charged so took several hours to prepare for the first run.
Used remote to get it started. Heard this model robot is relatively quiet. It is for the most part but will rev up for extra cleaning. HINT: put on UR earbuds and listen to music while it’s doing it’s thing.
Intelligent mapping is pretty good. Doesn’t seem to bump into things a lot and provides good cleaning coverage IMHO.
So far I’m loving this little guy and will stick with a while.

You can do a lot with this speaker
on May 13, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
I got this Pro Speaker mainly for listening to Google Play Music free radio stations.
First time out I put on classical music. Sounded great but a little light on bass IMHO.
Found two sound controls knobs in back. Set bass all the way up and treble at quarter loud.
Noticed in guide which came in the box, that it can be used with Karoke
This makes a good party option.
Paired speaker using Bluetooth from a Toshiba Chromebook 1. Sound volume controls on top row of the keyboard adjusted sound on the speaker nicely. Also paired with Pixel2 XL and iPhone 6s.
Unit weights about 14 lbs. but has a built in carrying handle on top. A big plus for that.
Will have a relative use an acoustic guitar with unit. Mentioned to her she can use an electric piano keyboard too.
This speaker is a good home entertainment addition for its intended use and recommend it to anyone with the right devices to get the most out of it.

Lots of value for UR $
on April 26, 2018
Posted by: ILUVFREEWIFI
from SF Bay Area
This mainstream gaming laptop comes with the latest 8th generation Intel i5 processor.
Otherwise everything is the same as ones coming with 7th gen. I5 processors.
I prefer a speedy SSD flash storage but U can add a 1T HHD with a cage that Acer can ship to U. Too bad a cage was not included. There's also a door on the bottom of the case to let U add a memory module.
Was surprised to see a free sleeve included in the box. Have a 15.6” sleeve already but it doesn’t fit as it’s too short on the long side.
Power brick beefy looking as is the connector to the PC.
I’m not much of a gamer and just wanted a laptop from Acer, a brand I know and respect. Have one of their Android tablets, a desktop PC monitor and a Chromebook. No problems with any of this kit.
Specs on this new machine better than anything I own so no complaints here.
Port selection excellent as U would expect with a gaming PC.
It took one hour to reach a full charge out of the box.
I swear this laptop PC seems bigger than 15.6” but it’s been six years since I had one this size.
HP Smart was found by Win 10 to print a one page color document to my new HP Officejet 5255.

Battery life doesn’t seem to be much more than 8-½ hours without videos. Not very good.
Also seems the things needed to run Linux on Windows 10 Home is too complicated for newbies to Linux. Even for uBuntu which is on the Windows Store.
Wish the SD Card would go all the way in and be spring loaded. Now it sticks out and can be
easily dislodged if bumped into. Also there’s a lot of light bleed on the backlit keyboard.

Now I can see outdoors at night
By ILUVFREEWIFI from SF Bay Area
I bought this window mount so I can see outdoor at night.
Happy to report it works !!!
Couldn't find any info from the OEM about why it does what it does. Maybe they think mounting the camera outside is better ?
Think I read something on a blog post about reduced glare & reflections and that's why I purchased it.
Please see a photo from the box it came in, to read the most important feature for improved night vision.
