Pour wine without removing the cork by using the Coravin Model Two wine system. The durable needle pierces the cork so you can pour, and then the cork reseals when the needle is removed to preserve the remaining wine. This Coravin Model Two wine system comes with two capsules that let you pour up to 30 glasses of wine.

Wine lovers rejoice, at a glass a day.
on October 7, 2017

There are quite a few ways to keep your wine tasting fresh, but this system seems to solve a major sticking point. Once you remove the cork, it tends to start going bad soon after. This allows you to enjoy wine by the pour, without needing to pull the cork. This is great for those who have 1 or 2 glasses of wine a day, or a couple of times a week.
Pros:
-The needle allows you to simply pierce the cork, and is removable, leaving the cork intact. It even re-seals, so there is no fear of the wine tasting bad. The gas fills the bottle, and keeps it fresh.
-Easy to use and clean.
-Keeps wine tasting like a freshly opened bottle of wine, every time. Can't stress this enough. The next couple of days, the wine tasted like we just popped the cork.

Cons: The gas capsules appear to be proprietary. They cost around $20 for a pack of two. We noticed that after about 10-12 glasses of wine, the gas capsule needed to be replaced. This can start to get pricey, but if you love wine, this may not be too much of an issue. Just be prepared to stock up.
Overall, I'm fairly impressed with the concept. It's great if you have a glass a day, but may not be the best for those who go through a bottle in one sitting.

Great picture even for 720p
on September 30, 2017
Posted by: Samrio
from Austin, TX
I was afraid that a 720p projector would lag behind in picture quality. Especially, with 4K beginning to dominate the TV space. However, this projector has a great picture, is lightweight for easy movement, and easy to setup.
We used it for a family movie night, and you don’t find yourself questioning the picture resolution. Just make sure you have a good projector screen, and you’ll be ready to have a family cinema night. Better yet, use it for a game on your Xbox or PS4.
I would recommend this projector for the quality and price. It’s not the newest 4K, but for it’s still HD.

Fast and efficient!
on September 23, 2017
Posted by: Samrio
from Austin, TX
This is likely one of the best routers Linksys has ever produced. It’s easy to setup, and can likely be the only router you need.
The only issue I ran into was interference from a neighbor in my apartment. I don’t have a killer enabled PC that can apparently take advantage of the full power of the router. However, you will likely notice faster load times on video, and pretty smooth online gameplay with a console. I had no lag while playing games on my Xbox or PlayStation online. Online games seem to load a bit snappier.
If you have a house, where WiFi signals aren’t as saturated, you’ll notice the network signal will be pretty great when centrally located; your results may vary.
I love the USB connector, and was easily able to hook up a hard drive to access files throughout. The transfer speeds are pretty phenomenal in network, with two laptops transferring files like butter in-network over an AC connection.
If you don’t need a mesh network product to distribute WiFi over a large area, I’d say this is an easy buy.

Great cordless vacuum!

I haven’t owned, or used, a portable/cordless Vac since the Dustbuster was new. I was a bit shocked at how much these were, and am here to say this is a worthy investment.
Pros:
It’s lightweight, battery is removable, the wand is kinda neat to use, and it seems to handle pet hair like a champ.

Cons:
The dustbin tray was a bit tricky for me at first, but once you figure it out, you don’t have to worry about spilling the contents all over the floor. I wish this had a dock for easier charging, but that’s just a wish. The battery can drain pretty quickly, so be sure to pick the right floor type, and charge the battery when you’re done.

Technology has come a long way since the Dustbuster, and I feel like I just lept forward into a new era of cordless vacuum tech. This is definitely worthy of your attention if you’re in the market for a powerful cordless vac!

This blender is awesome! I couldn’t understand why so many people love Vitamix blenders so much. The price is definitely justified with this machine. It’s made the most consistent smoothies, and never once jammed or slowed down.
The varying levels of speed and the pulse control seem satisfying as you begin blending. It’s also surprisingly easy to clean.
I never thought I’d love a blended, but now that I have this one, I can’t imagine ever spending money on any other blender appliance.

Great sound from a small system
on August 10, 2017
Posted by: Samrio
from Austin, TX
If you’re in the market for a new mini system, and want a bit of nostalgia, pick this one.
It has a cassette player, for all of you who still use them. Playing any audio from any input source sounds clear, and it’s definitely a good addition to an office space or your garage. This would also make a great gift for your college kids dorm room.
For such a smaller system, I was truly impressed with the sound quality. I’d definitely recommend this.

Easy Setup, Clear Picture, Awesome Features
on July 26, 2017
Posted by: Samrio
from Austin, TX
Let me just start out by saying that I currently own two Nestcams, the old Dropcam Pro, and some Yi Cameras. I've used all of these for various purposes, but am most impressed by the Circle 2.
Pro's:
1. Setup was easy. Once you install the app on your device (iOS for me), you're immediately aware that your device has been discovered. You hear an audible tone from the Camera, and the setup begins almost immediately. No messy scanning of a barcode, or plugging into a computer here. If you use any of the Logitech products that are accompanied by a login (I use Harmony remotes), you'll be able to login fairly quickly. The entire setup process took me less than 5 minutes. The longest I had to wait was the firmware download and install, but that was painless.

The longest I had to wait was the firmware download and install, but that was painless.
2. No hub required. There are a few competing products that require a Hub to properly work. The downside to this is the lack of range when you place camera's on the exterior of your home. This one doesn't, so you can setup as many as you need, and as long as you have a great wifi signal, it will provide a strong connection. I'd recommend a mesh wireless system if you're placing them on your exterior walls. This allows for a more convenient placement option if your neighborhood is saturated with networks. I use an eero network, and it immediately connected without the hassle of trying to figure out what eero "node" to connect to.
3. 24 hours of FREE cloud recording. The others will only offer you local storage (which is pointless if the camera is stolen), or a quick 30 second clip. This one allows for a day's worth of video, and a daily brief you can view. It's a quick time lapse of all the activity that happened within view of the camera, and is pretty neat. I was able to see what my dogs did all day (mostly jumping on or off the couch). They do offer other cloud options, but they aren't required to use the device.
4. Flexibility. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to have to decide whether you purchase an indoor or outdoor camera for your security needs. This one is water resistant (or proof) so it offers you the ability to put it almost anywhere (so long as you have power and Wifi). It comes with a standard wall mount and stand, but Logitech offers additionally accessories to stick it to a window, or on a wall plug. Your applications for this are no longer tethered to a wire (if you don't want it to) with the rechargeable battery (separate purchase or buy the wireless version). The cord that comes with the wired version is also pretty long, so it's easy to find a plug if you need one. The camera itself is designed to be plugged into the appropriate base for your application (ie use it on the wired stand, or attach the battery accessory).
5. App experience. Where others have failed, this one makes up for. You can customize the level of alerts you receive, and can even filter "people" vs other. This has worked pretty well. I'm not sure how it works on the backend, but so far it's only displayed alerts for actual folks walking by. Doesn't go off when my dogs are, unless I set that option in the settings. The app is super easy to use. You can even choose what resolution your view the camera in. This is great if you don't have access to wifi while you're away from home. I have it set to 1080P, and am ashamed that I settled for other lower quality resolution options from other cameras.
6. Integration options: You can pair this to your Amazon Echo and command Alexa to start a recording. If you have the new Echo Show (the one with the screen), you can use it to view your live feed. Simply use the Alexa App to enable to skill, and you're up in a matter of a minute. This is an option not available from other cameras.
Cons:
Not really a con: The additional cost to take advantage of the additional cloud storage for longer recording time. There is also some added cost if you want the various mounts, but
Logitech makes this optional vs required when making the purchase decision. So if you buy the wired version, you can always buy the appropriate battery pack to make it wireless.
This allows you to purchase the camera you think best fits your needs, and simply by the appropriate mount attachment should things change.

Summary:
The Logitech Circle 2 camera is an easy buy. It offers the flexibility lacking from others, and is a great value overall. Due to the ease of use, picture quality, and the flexibility of application (indoor or outdoor), I'd highly recommend this as your next camera purchase. I'll be buying some more of these and getting rid of the others. Logitech got this Circle right.

Decent Earbuds, lacking in speaker mode
on July 12, 2017
Posted by: Samrio
from Austin, TX
The horseshoe shaped design feels comfortable around your neck, without feeling heavy. The built in speakers are great for light listening, in a quiet environment, but aren't ideal for walking down the street with traffic, or in a busy office space. You'll find that the sound, even when turned up all the way, is drowned out by surrounding environmental noise. However, the surround effect (DTS) is pretty neat. You'll likely feel the surround sound effect, similar to the ones you find in a TV sets built in speaker configuration. The ear buds, on the other had, are great. They feel full of bass (not overwhelming) and the sound is pretty clear. Aside from the Apple Wireless buds, these are pretty great! It's also a great feature that the ear buds retract, with a simple pull. Don't pull too hard though, as I'm sure they'll break. However, it's nice to get the fit right, so you don't have a bunch of bulky cable around your neck. You can also use the built buttons to activate Siri on an iPhone (the inner left button) and the right button inner button controlled play/pause. It has volume and skip buttons on the exterior, and work great.
They didn't take a long to charge either, but I would recommend plugging them in as soon as you open them for the first time. Overall, I'm fairly impressed with them as wireless earbuds, not so much as a personal speaker. As a result, you'll probably find some better wireless ear buds, at a lower cost, that aren't as bulky. If you want a personal speaker, this would make an excellent purchase!

Impressive Performance, small form factor
on July 6, 2017
Posted by: Samrio
from Austin, TX
I had no idea how well this little laptop would work, and I was surprised at just how thin, light, and powerful this XPS is.
It comes with a lot of specs to rival the newest Macbooks with the m3 processor, but packs more punch. When you first power it on, you'll marvel at the clear screen, and are promptly on your way to setup and updating. I recommend doing all the updates to fully enjoy it's performance.
I installed World of Warcraft, a popular MMO, to see how well the Intel 615 graphics could handle it. It's not going to be the most visually appealing experience, in terms of graphics settings. However, on the lowest graphic setting, it's quite easy to play and forget you're on a basic graphic setting. Framerate ranged from 30 fps in a highly populated area, up to around 80 fps when in a cave with little in the background.
You're probably wondering how I played the game, given that the laptop doesn't have a standard USB port. Thankfully, Dell thought of that too, and included a USB C to USB 3 dongle. You can connect it to the port labeled as a Display Port (also a USB C port) on the opposite side of the USB port used for charging. Using the dongle, I was able to plug in any number of USB devices (mouse included).
Like any laptop running under pressure, it does get a little warm, but not as warm as the larger laptops. So you won't need to worry about burning with this on your lap. It boots up quickly, and in tablet mode, you'll be impressed with how great the response is to drawing, writing, or doing markups on a document. I haven't used a "convertible" laptop before, but this one has won me over. The only issue I ran into, was using the finger print sensor. Most of the time, I found myself having to type my PIN to login. Once I ran the fingerprint setup again, it was much more responsive. Just be prepared to re do the setup if your finger print isn't detected properly.
Overall, I'm really impressed with this laptop, and I love how easily it tackles every work tasks (used the office suite), web browsing, moving playing, and casual gaming with ease. If you're wondering, "should I buy this or the Macbook?" Just go ahead and buy this. You get a lot more for the money.

Easy pairing, but use your own earbuds.
on July 1, 2017
Posted by: Samrio
from Austin, TX
This is a great Bluetooth accessory, especially if you already have some great wires headphones. The included ear buds work great for adults, but found them difficult for my 11 yr old to get in his ears (regardless of bud size attachments). Ultimately, it connected easily. Just note, the included instructions aren’t super clear on pairing mode. They make it seem that when you turn them on, they are in pair mode. You actually need to keep holding the play button until it’s blinking blue and red. When you power them on, they just blink blue and white. Once that’s done, you’ll see them pop up right away as “Jlab Gravity.” Overall, a pretty decent accessory, but the included ear buds aren’t the best audio quality around.

This is not a laptop. It’s so much more. Meet Combo Touch, the keyboard case with trackpad that enables new levels of versatility with iPad Pro. Navigate and work in apps like never before with a new click-anywhere trackpad — our largest ever* — that gives you more space and allows for Multi-Touch trackpad gestures. SMART CONNECTOR technology helps to deliver an incredibly responsive trackpad experience and also makes powering and pairing the keyboard instant. Type comfortably for hours with laptop-like backlit keys that automatically adjust to your environment. You can always see what you're typing thanks to 16 levels of brightness. Enjoy convenient access to volume controls and more with a full row of iPadOS shortcut keys. The iPad Pro meets its aesthetic match with a slim, sleek design — the thinnest keyboard case we've ever designed with a trackpad.* The elegant woven outer fabric feels as great as it looks and the case is molded to fit your iPad Pro, protecting the front, back, and corners from scrapes and bumps. Your iPad Pro is held securely in place so you can have peace of mind that it won’t slip out and focus on what matters most — getting things done. *Compared to Logitech keyboard cases with trackpad released in 2020.

Having both the Gen 4 and Gen 5 iPad Pro 12.9, I can confirm this works on both.

Can they work independently? Is there a microphone in each piece so you can just switch between the 2 to gain the most amount of battery time?
Yes, they can work independently. However, the battery time was approx 5 to 6 hours with non-stop noise cancelling use before I had to charge them. Even so, about 10 minutes in the case gave me another 1 to 2 hours of use without issue.

I can’t understand why it can’t be connected to Ps4. Any idea out here?
This is actually a limitation from Sony Computer Entertainment, in regards to the PlayStation 4. They only allow pairing of officially PlayStation licensed headphones designed for use on the console. Even though these were designed by Sony, they weren't designed for use with the console. There are various 3rd party dongles you can purchase to use unsupported bluetooth headphones, if this is what you're trying to do.

You can use either speaker mode, or ear bud mode. There is a toggle button on the device to select either sound option. If you're in ear bud mode, it shuts the speaker off. You just wear it the same way, no need to re-adjust the way it's sitting for speaker mode.
