Fast Apple Device Qi Charging...
on May 25, 2019
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
Way to go Belkin. Another home run in my opinion with the Boost Up Charging Dock.
You can charge your Apple Watch, iPhone (must be Qi capable) and even another item with the USB port located on the back of the Boost Up (although its only 1A)
Placement of your devices on the Boost up is simple and charging starts right away, the watch charger holds your watch in place and the phone area has a little ridge to make sure your phone doesnt slide off the base. And it charges VERY fast, but the way I use it most is to place my phone and my watch on the stand when going to bed, when I wake up all is charged and ready to go.
The phone does get a little hot when charging but thats the case with all Qi chargers and should not be a concern.
I recommend this great all in One Apple charger.

This comes in two models, one with the suction cup and one with the vent mount, if you dont have a suitable vent in your car then get the suction which can work on your window or dash.
The thing that sets these apart in my opinion is the use of a magnet.
I placed the included metal plate on the inside of my phone case. There is sufficient magnet strength to mount my phone with ease. The great thing about it is, you hit the mark every time and just place your phone on the surface and BOOM, you are good to go. For those who use a Qi charger (which I do for my iPhone Xs) have no fear, mine worked perfectly with the metal plate in the case.
Overall a simple and easy way to mount your phone in your car.

Cute Modern Day (Almost) Disposable Camera
on May 3, 2019
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
If you are looking for high quality prints and ability to take pics in almost any situation (lighting etc), this is NOT for you.
If you want something compact, fun, easy to operate that gives instant gratification by printing a pic in an instant then this IS for you.
There is the option to save pics you have taken on an SD card but the image quality just isn’t up to par with what your cell phone can do (and who doesn’t have a cell phone camera now a days?) so I would just recommend using the Cliq because you can have a pic that you take in your hand to hold within seconds.
It’s a little wonky sometimes as you really don’t know how many pics you have left in your camera, I just keep taking pics until I cant take any more then reload. Its also got a selfie mirror on the front for instant selfies.
I have mirror-less SLRs that cost thousands and this obviously doesn’t compare BUT for a compact camera you can take anywhere the Cliq a fun inexpensive choice.
My daughter loves it even though she has an iPhone for most of her pics and has started a collection of the instant shots from the Cliq that she has displayed on her wall in her room.
Good fun for what it is.

Dolby Digital / DTS / Great Sound / Wireless Sub
on May 3, 2019
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
Dolby Digital and DTS with a Wireless Sub in an inexpensive compact package.
If you are looking for a low profile (only 2 inch) soundbar with a wireless sub and quality build then this might be just the ticket. You can place it on a shelf under your TV or install on your wall with Wall Mount Spacers.
Setup is easy, you are able to take advantage of your TV’s ARC HDMI Port for a seamless connection or if your TV has an Optical Out you can connect via the sound bars optical input. Placing the Wireless Subwoofer near the soundbar is all that’s needed to have them pair up, which I found out by accident, but that’s all you need to do. You can also pair up your Bluetooth phone for music listening from your favorite music app.
Once hooked up and up and running the sound you get is full and rich with nice bass. If hooked up through HDMI ARC then the soundbar can be controlled with your TV remote which is a great ARC feature. There is no Bass adjustment however so you cant customize it if you wanted to but that’s a minor issue for some, major for others, the sound is so good though that I don’t miss the adjustment capabilities.
Overall at this price point the DHT-S316 is hard to beat, I definitely recommend it.

An almost perfect portable Bluetooth speaker..
on April 15, 2019
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
Let me start off by saying everything about the Stockwell 2 is top notch. From the packaging to the solid feel of the speaker and the dials etc to the carrying handle.
Charging is easy via the USB-C port and the charging life indicator is easy to read and is a nice graduated line.
Pairing is also easy with the touch of a button.
The sound emanates from the front and back and is “multi-directional” and there are three old school dials (which is a nice touch) on the top for volume, bass and treble respectively.
Once paired here is where the Stockwell 2 really shines.
The sound is fantastic for a speaker this size, Bass is deep, the highs are crisp, the speaker doesn’t sound muddy at all and even at full volume has absolutely no distortion.
The Stockwell 2 is also IPX4 water resistant and the battery lasts just over 20 hours on a full charge.
Ok, so what makes it less than perfect? I for one always look for speakers that I can take a phone call on, more and more are leaving this feature and Marshall with the Stockwell 2 is no exception, there is no ability to make a speakerphone call. Other than that this speaker for the size in my opinion cannot be beat.
Don’t hesitate, for music playback it’s tough to beat. If you need it for phone calls as well, then it’s not for you.

AWESOME 7.1 channel glasses friendly headset
on April 5, 2019
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
When unboxing these gaming headphones you can tell that Turtle Beach has truly stepped up its game with these premium headphones.
To set up you need to hook up the hub, the Mini USB cable (plugs into the Xbox for power), the 3.5mm cable, and the detachable microphone. Setup is easy after that and finding the right adjustment is now a breeze with the mobile app that connects to the SuperAmp via Bluetooth, a much better approach than onboard adjustments that you cannot access easily like on previous models.
You never have to leave a game or take the headset off to make any adjustments.
The DTS-X sound is fantastic and the headset sits comfortably on the head, never once was I uncomfortable, nor did my ears get hot as sometimes happens with over the ear headphones and mic placement was in the perfect spot for me. Most importantly I wear glasses and they did not interfere with my glasses at all which is a great plus.
If you are looking for a true gamers headset you can’t go wrong with this one.

The Belkin 5 W Qi Charger does what it is supposed to to which is charge your Qi enabled devices quickly. We have various iPhones in our household and this worked flawlessly with all of them. It even charges with a case on the phone as long as you place the phone properly on the charging pad.
I definitely recommend this to anyone needing a quick Qi charger.

Great shoice for an electric shaver
on January 4, 2019
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
I have been using electric shavers for over 20 years, and the pinnacle of shavers in my opinion has always been Norelco and now Philips Norelco.
I have been using electric shavers for so long that I forget it takes some getting used to for folks that are new to using them, but whether you are a veteran electric shaver user or a noob, you cant go wrong with the 6900.
Its quiet, the charge lasts a long time and you can use both wet and dry (I always use dry) and you can keep it clean by just running under some water.
The shave is close, and you can just pop off the three heads and pop on the trimmer attachment to trim your beard to 5 different length settings if you so choose.
The 6900 comes with a charging base and a carrying case for travel and is very light.
The 6900 will give you a high quality shave in a light versatile package, you wont be disappointed.

If you are in the market for a Dash Cam with great

Setup is a breeze and you will be up and running within minutes of taking the V2 out of the box.
Included is a suction cup mount or one with an adhesive mount to securely mount your Dash Cam to your windshield.
Included is a suction cup mount or one with an adhesive mount to securely mount your Dash Cam to your windshield.
The V2 has dual cameras, that will video in 1080P both in the car and outside, which is a cool feature, one that would really come in handy if you are an Uber or Lyft driver to record what’s happening inside your car (with sound) and outside. Its handy but don’t know what use I will get out of this.
The main reason to get this is to record what’s happening outside in front of your vehicle and this does a fantastic job of it. If you don’t have a need to record the interior of your car you can even record in 2160P which is a stellar picture on the V2.
Using the menu is a bit clunky and takes a little getting used to but once you do, using the V2 is a breeze.
The V2 can detect if you have been in an accident with the built in G sensor and it will lock the video to make sure you can review later. There is also an optional GPS sensor (purchased separately) to use with the V2 so it will record where you are at all times.
I would recommend getting an extreme or other heavy duty micro sd card to stand up to the harsh temperature conditions within a car.
Overall, the V2 is a great choice and will fit your needs if you need a high quality dash cam.

Not the best implementation of a smart bulb
on November 30, 2018
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
First off unless you are invested in the Google eco system these are not for you…you will need to have a Google Home Mini to operate these. The idea is a good one, different settings for your sleep and wake patterns and they are easy to dim or brighten with the Google Home app…again and good idea if it worked.
Connecting the bulbs took a little while to accomplish and they lost connection a couple of times. The weird thing is these are not Wifi but Bluetooth driven and that connection seems problematic.
Perhaps these are all functions that would allow better flexibility if there was an option to also utilize a Wink Hub which can do all the things the Google Home app can do but they are not WiFi bulbs which is probably the reason why these are not Zigbee, Wink or some other universal home automation platform.
Not much more to say about these except don’t get them in my opinion…I would have expected more from GE.
