Nice LED strip if you can find it on sale
on June 29, 2018
Posted by: Bill
from Clarksburg MD
Verified Purchase:Yes
Was looking to buy an LED strip for my kitchen and saw this on deal of the day so I grabbed it up. Installed it about a week ago and still loving it. Install was easy. Double side tape sticks under the cabinet without any issues (so far). They have 8 bright settings. I use the brightest as a night light. There's also about 20 different colors you can choose from. I change it depending on the mood. It's low profile so you don't see it after install and I have it plugged into a usb outlet that I installed. Instructions say you can cut it down if need to but I used all 4 feet that I bought.

Small and Portable

Verified Purchase:Yes
Got this to charge my phone at work when I'm not near my car. Small size fits in my pocket. Nothing really special to rave about. Its a portable charger. Gives me almost a full charge but I'll take it due to its small size.

Good surviellance camera
on June 21, 2018
Posted by: Bill
from Clarksburg MD
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this 3 pack camera for my vacation. I like that it is wireless with the option of using constant power but if you do use constant power then you lose the weatherproof ability. The cameras were bigger than what I thought they would be looking at the picture. The mounts that came with them are OK. Can't comment on battery life but at 720p, you get the estimated 2 years if you're not getting lots of motion. At 1080 it is less. Picture is good and clear. The IR is pretty bright washing out some of the picture at night. I lowered my setting. Installation and set up was easy and fast. Notifications are slow. They aren't sent until the video clip has stopped recording as opposed to being notified when it senses motion. Overall, I am pleased with them.

Good dehumidifier
on June 3, 2018
Posted by: Bill
from Clarksburg MD
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this after seeing reviews online. It was the top pick for 2017 according to some websites. The white clean look makes the unit look very modern. The carry handle and wheels make it easy to move around. There is a very small window to let you see how full the bucket it. There's also a white light that blinks when the bucket is full and needs to be empty. The unit makes less noise then my old unit that this one replaced. This 70 pint dehumidified my house very quickly. Overall I am satisfied with it. Don't know yet about reliability. The only downside I find is the bucket isn't as big as my old unit. I have to empty the bucket about 3 times a day in my house compared to just twice with my old unit.

Plug in a pair of USB devices for easy charging with these Dynex USB outlets. Each USB port can handle up to 2.4 amps so it can charge at a sedate pace, and it’s hardwired into your power system so you always have a slot spare. These Dynex USB outlets include mounting screws and wall plates.

Great upgrade

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this to replace an outlet in my bedroom. Install was easy and fast. Took me about 5 minutes with my knowledge and tools. Works very well. Wanted to de-clutter some of my outlets. A downside is depending on the size of the plug you have, it may block the usb port partially where you can't plug it in.

Great second charger
on April 28, 2018
Posted by: Bill
from Clarksburg MD
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this as a second/travel charger. First, the price was good. At $25, this was cheaper then any of the chargers I saw anywhere else. Second, the wire is longer. Which is better then the one that came with my watch. This one is 4ft vs the apple one which is 3ft. Third, this one is bigger then the stock apple charger. This is not an issue with my since I do no use any stands. Anyone who uses a watch stand to charge may find this will not fit. Lastly, This works with the series 3 watch. The description says for the 1 and 2 but I use it for my 3. And a side note, it seems it charges faster. Not 100% sure since I haven't timed the charging time.

I already have these cameras but I am having a problem with batteries going to fast , is there a way to plug these in?

Yes, if you remove the rubber cover in the back, it will expose the micro usb port. But you will lose the weatherproof feature and cannot install it outside.

If I purchase the Google home mini would it work in Italy ?

yes but it won't work in Italian (yet?) and location specific stuff may not work. And you may not get any support since its not sold in Italy.
