I have never given a one star rating to a product before, but I honestly feel painted into a corner with this wallet... I'll tell you why.
First off, I am not a "Crypto Bro". I got a Ledger device a few years ago, deposited like $70, and it's worth maybe $400 now. Yay. But other than that, crypto is a very passive hobby, at best, so take that for what it's worth.
Secondly, the ring itself is kind'a cool. The ceramic is deep, dark, and attractive. But as a wallet? Nope.
OK, I downloaded the app, and setup was pretty simple. Entered basic info, registered the ring, registered the 2 backup cards was pretty simple. Maybe 5 minutes from opening box to having to ready to go... Then everything went south, big time.
OK, I have the app, ring and both cards registered, I should be good to go, right? I went to add funds in the Tangem app, and I flat out couldn't. I tried from multiple platforms using Google Pay and Google Wallet... Nope. Every single time, on every single platform, when I hit the "confirm Order" button, nothing happened, and I mean NOTHING. It would not process the order. Again, this happened several times, and with no less than 6 different platforms.
OK, I'm not going to give up, 'cuz that's not me. OK, cool... I chose the "credit Card" option... Added my card, went to purchase and got the error message "It is highly unlikely the card provider will let you purchase crypto funds." For the record, this card is not some Bank Of Central Juarez, off brand sketch provider, it's Chase. But the same error, multiple times, on multiple platforms...
Am I ready to give up? Nope. Did the same thing with my American Express card, and guess what? Same error. A waste 1.5 hours, and measured frustration.
Looking at the screen-shots, one might ask, "Well sire, you should have paid with your PayPal or Venmo account." NOPE. NEVER. NOT GOIN G TO HAPPEN. I DO NOT and I WILL NOT, EVER, have one of those platforms for ANY financial transactions. I DO NOT trust them. "Well, how about a debit card?", one might ask. Again, same answer... I DO NOT and I WILL NEVER have a debit card. I am cash only, and credit for travel and when credit is the only payment option. Nope.
End of the day, this was a waste of two hours. I have the equivalent of a $60 zirconia ceramic, halfway decent ring, but I have no crypto wallet.
Not cool. Not enjoyable. Actually, the opposite... Left me with a bad taste. I might fiddle with it tomorrow, but honestly, I am not sure if I care enough. I might just shred the cards and keep the ring for when the "fashion" mood strikes.
Sorry, but so far, a waste of my time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

OK, in my house, I have a mixture of Ring camera's and Google Nest cameras. Being a part of this program, I have a, you lot of experience testing many brands of camera's, and in my experience, you truly do get what you pay for. The premium is worth it with the Ring.
My experience with battery camera's is mixed. With some battery camera's, maintaining the battery can feel like a part-time job. The cool feature with these camera's is two-fold: first, the batteries are big, and hold more charge than most. Second, these camera's have two battery slots. So when one goes low, the camera automatically switches to the other battery. Then you can replace the low battery with a previously charged one. Twice the life, half the time managing batteries. Great design.
The mounting options for these cameras are great. You can put them almost anywhere, inside or out, basement, garage, pool, pool house, greenhouse... Pretty much anywhere.
If you don't have the Ring app already, you'll need to get it and get an account. If you do have one, adding the unit is simple.
The picture is great. The light is, well... It's bright enough.
The app offers tons of control, is intuitive, and offers great options.
End of the day, I would reccomend to a friend.

Excellent Spotlight and Camera
on July 7, 2026
Posted by: Posted1
Being a part of this program, I have had the opportunity to use A LOT of camera systems. For me, I have two favorites, with a running tie between Ring and Nest. With my current system being these two, they are both great systems and they do different things very. This Ring Floodlight camera fits right in.
install was pretty straightforward, especially if you have an existing wired mount. I did not. I had to tie into another exterior light's power and run a few feet through the attic. If you have an existing mount and are just repolacing an old light with this, you should really only need a ladder, a couple screwdriver and three wire nuts. For a replacement, you shoukd be able to di it in 15 to 20 minutes.
Once installed, adding it to an existing system is a cinch. Just go into the app, add a new product, and follow the simple instructions. If this is your first foray into Ring, you'll need to download the app first.
One note: In order to get cloud storage and AI, you will need a paid subscription plan with Ring. I already have this for unlimited cameras, so it's straight forward for me. The good news, is the yearly fee is pretty reasonable compared to some competitors.
You will also need the subscription to get the AI event descriptions. I have found the AI to be pretty accurate, and honestly, sometimes, entertaining. For example, we have a large, grey, fluffy cat that roams the neighborhood. Sometimes the AI will see her and say "A racoon is walking near the pathway". But usually, it's pretty spot-on.
As for motion detection, it's honestly maybe TOO good. I had to adjust the motion detection down, and adjust for what it was looking to detect. I don't need to know that bee or a fly came by. But that's not a complaint, that's a compliment.
Video quality is excellent. I have the "Pro" version of this in 4K, and to my eye, the video between the two is a difference without a distinction. Again, a compliment.
The spotlight is also excellent. Compared to the Pro, again, I can't tell a difference.
One thing I do prefer Ring over Google Nest, is the app for Ring is a little more intuitive than the Nest. You have a lot of control and choices for what get's detected, area's to be detected, timing on lights, etcetera.
In all, an excellent choice, and yes, I would reccomend to a friend.

Good For Some Environment, Not Great For Others
on June 22, 2026
Posted by: Posted1
OK, this is an OK robovac. Over the years, I have had multiple opportunities to test and review several Robovac's from multiple ,anufacturers. End of the day, my experience has been that... Well... They're OK. I can't think of a single robovac that is particulary remarkable or memorable. Most of them are decent at vacuuming, and OK at mapping, but they all do better in static environments. This one is no different.
Set up was pretty simple. Out of the box and ready to go, 15, maybe 20 minutes. As expected. Load the app, pretty simple. Operational in 30 minutes or so. Set it loose and wanted to see how it was as a vacuum/. How was it? It was OK. I will say, this one is advertised as a pet specialty, and it was good. Honestly better than mrectangle ost others. We have a small 20 pond dog, and then we have 3 average size cats. They are all short hair, except one of the cat's is a medium hair. After 3 straight days of running tests in a simple, lightly furnished rectangle room, it learned pretty quickly, and did do a good job on the pet hair. BUt then, the real test...
We have a relatively large house, with 3 wings and 2800 sqaure feet on th emain level, 1500 square feet with a long hallway, an open office, and 3 beds, 2 baths upstairs. It's a pretty straightforward lay out. In the basement, we have another 1500 square feet that has one bedroom, one bath, and the rest a wide-open area with a pool table, a couple coiuches and a couple recliners.
OK, now that we have a the lay-of the land, this vacuum did great upstairs, as long as we kept bedroom doors closed. With the bedroom doors open, not so much. It seemed to get confused (as most vacs do, whe doors are open. As I expected.
Moving to the main floor, I'll say it's this robovac, (or any robovacs, really), our priumary level is just not set up for robovac's... We have two steps down to the den, three sectional sofas, and three seperate sets of French doors. This, and really all robos struggled with not only the size, but the complexity.
Now lets go down to the finished, but mainly wide open basement and it did great, but given the simplicity of the layout, that is what I expected.
End of the day, this operated as expected. A decent robovac FOR THE RIGHT ENVIRONMENTS, but not at all good in larger, more complex environment.
If you have the former, probably a decent choice. If you have the latter, this, or most other's are probably not the best.

Very Cool LITTLE Gaming Keyboard!
on June 17, 2026
Posted by: Posted1
This a very cool LITTLE gaming keyboard!
My first takeaway was how truly small and compact the keyboard. I was concerned it would be difficult to type on (yes, I realize it's a tageted gaming keyboard), but it wasn't. The feel was fanatastic!
The typing feel was great, as was the gaming feel. For gaming, I prefer smaller keyboard. This one is one of my favorites. I have used several gaming keyboards, from ones that cast less than $100, to ones that are over $500. While you generally get what you pay for, I honestly believe this one is near the higher end. It's a high quality keyboard, for a good price.
The lightong on it is pretty cool. As you can see from the pics, you have several patterns you can choose from, from color thesmes that "move", to solid color. Persoanlly, I prefer the solid colors. My 24-year-old US Navy Nuclear Engineer and avid gamer, likes the colors. This unit gives you both.
This keyboard has "Hall effect" keys. Most people who would read this already know what Hall effect is, but for those who don't, Hall effect uses magnets and sensors, and not mechanical contact. The advantages? Keys will last a very long time, they are adjustable, no debounce (huge for hardcore gamers), and a smooth and consistant feel.
Couple oif notes: This is a wired keyboard, and to get full value, download the Corsair app. The app is pretty clean, and easy to use. Not the deepest in the world, but clean, intuitive, and good enough.
In all, this is an excellent keyboard, especially for the price and feature set.
I woulkd reccomend to a friend.

Great doorbell!
I have a combiniation/hybrid system between the Ring ecosystem and the Nest system. They both are great systems in their own regard, but one place where this beats the other, is in the mount for removal and recharging of the bell cam. The nest uses a plate that can be pretty finicky, but this one, is a cinch.
The mounting was simple. Two screws, and then snap it right on. Great!
Already having the Ring ecosystem, adding the doorbell was also simple. Simply go to your devices, hit the blue "+" button, choose your product, name it, and you are good to go.
The camera quality itself is great. Between the two systems, the Ring has slightly better digital zoom. As for motion detection, they are both very good. I do always move the motion detection to the lower end of the range on my battery products. End of the day, I really only care about mammals and package delivery. No need for it to go off when a bee flys by.
The battery life has also been in line with the other system. I chose to mount this one on the garage door, where it wouldn't be constantly triggerd by passing cars and the battery has so far barely budged.
End of the day, great product, whether you already have the Ring system or would like to use this as your base to build around.

Decent headset, for what it is.
This is not my first foray into the BlueParrott family line. Just for reference, BlueParrott is a sister company to Jabra. Jabra also has some good products that I have previously used and reviewed.
This BlueParrott - Pro B350 Wireless Bluetooth Mono offers good utility, with great noise-cancelling microphone, and mono audio. This is not designed for music, it's designed for utility. Having the audio enter in only one ear allows for the other audio channel to be aware of surrounding auditory cues, (sirens, horns, radio chatter, etcetera), and that is a huge advantage for those who drive alot.
Set up was as expected. Download the app, (I already had it), pair the unit, and you are good to go.
The controls on the side are good. My experience is that all too often, the controls can be "too cute by half". In this case, they are fairlu intuitive, and tactile feedback is understandable and accurate.
In several conversations with my wife, friends and employees, the sound quality to them was great. And I had no problems understanding and hearing them.
Quality was good for consumer grade, as was comfort level.
In all, a good choice, for a good price. I would reccomend to a friend.

Decnt Printer, HORRIBLE Subscription Plans!
on June 3, 2026
Posted by: Posted1
I mean... It's a printer. And it does what printers do. Yay.
The good? Well, like I said, it's a printer. It prints. And it prints fast enough for any home, and / or home-office, printer. Great. Can't really give more than 4 stars, for a printer doing what a printer is supposed to do, print. Great. So why did I give it a three star rating instead of four? Read on, and I'll explain later.
The setup was as expected. Load paper, load ink, scan QR, follow instructions for WiFi, test page...
Here is where it loses a star. I DO NOT RECOMMEND signing up for the "HP Instant Ink". A monthly SUBSCRIPTION FOR PRINTER INK?!?!?! NO. HP has been pushing HARD for the "subscription model" for YEARS. I am NOT paying a monthly fee to print a few pages every few months. Nope.
The other caveat, HP uses chips in their cartridges to try to farce you to use HP ink cartridges. Non-HP cartridges MAY not work. Is that the case with every non-HP cartridges? I don't know, and I'm not going to spend $60 to find out.
End of the day, decent printer, but HP tries to force you into a subscription, AND force you to use their more expensive cartridges. NOT cool.
Black and white, printing is quick, clean, and clear. Color printing, is again, fine. It's not photograph quality, but it's not supposed to be. So again, fine.
Setup was as expected. It's a printer
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Solid Choice For Your Office / Home-Office
on May 14, 2026
Posted by: Posted1
Decent secondary or primary office... In my case, I am using it as a secondary monitor in my home office. I primarily use this (and my primary) monitor for boring, lame, office stuff. Think E-mail, Internet, word processing documents, spreadsheets etcetera... And of course, the occasional vide that my buddies might send me, or a sill X link. I am not using this (or my other primary monitor), for any gaming. That said, this machine does have a 144Hz (144 times per second), refresh rate. Pretty decent for a non-gaming monitor. It seves my purpose well.
The build quality is Typical Dell consumer grade. It has a solid buiold quality and is realtively attractive (for what that's worth) for a home-office monitor.
For inputs, it has two (2) HDMI 1.4 ports. Certainly enough for any office/home-office. The viewing angle is listed at 178 degrees, for a nice, wide, viewing angle. This is noce when I have a static document for reference on this machine while working from it on my main monitor.
The resolution is a strong Full HD (1920x1080). Certainly more than enough for your office environment.
End of the day, a great choice at a fair price, and if reputation holds true, it's a typical high-quality Dell. I expect it tpo operate n my desk untill the foreseeable future. Solid choice.

Great monitor! But most definitely better for a gaming environment, than a pure office environment...
Let me start by saying, I am not going to get into any of the particular specifications of this device, as they are readily available from the Best buy site, the manufacturers site, and from my peers reviews here. What I will comment on, is the user experience...
My son is a 24 year-old U.S. Navy Nuclear Engineer, and an avid gamer. I bring this up because it is a testament to his over-all ability focus, and find details (or lack thereof), that a simple 55 year-old man may no longer have the physical ability to experience, or differentiate. Why is this important? Well, this is designed, marketed and sold as a "gaming monitor". I was fortunate enough to have him on leave and home for a couple weeks as we tested this out.
To test, we played several games, each one at a time, through this monitor, and then back-to-back on a similar, but non-gamin monitor. To my eye, there was a difference without a distinction between the two monitors. This may have been somewhat "brighter" in movement to my eye, but old eye's lie. To him, he said there was a distinct difference in clarity and "speed" of refreshment in display. Why does this matter? Well, if I am using this as a word or number-cruncher. it's just fine. But so are most monitors. But if you are using this as a gaming machine, where clarity of detail, and refresh rate of viewed information, this is a considerably better choice. That is especially true if you have the advantage of being as mentally acute as a Navy Nuke, but also the joy of having 24-year-old eyes...
If however, you are a 55 year-old dude, with the joy of youth in the rearview mirror, this is a great monitor, but the perceived value may not have the same impact on you as it once did.
End of the day, this is a gaming monitor, and it serves that purpose well. It also serves an INternet cruiser, word processing, number-crunching platform just as well. If you are a gamer and looki g for a highly accurate platform at a reasonable price, you can't go wrong. I would reccomend to a friend.

I'm not sure I understand the question. You should be able to plug the USB into your PC, turn your mouse to the "on" position and have it operate no problems.
