Never thought a glass Mouse Pad would be so great!
on June 14, 2023
Posted by: JoeBlow25
I have only ever used fabric mouse pads in my life up to this point. Glass would have been the last material I would have ever thought would make the best mouse pad I have ever owned. I guess for the price, it better be the best mousepad you can get.
This mat is marketed to gamers, and for good reason. My mouse glides across this thing effortlessly, I had to slow down some of the mouse settings to get this to work at a speed I'm used to since I'm unintentionally moving the mouse faster across the mat's extremely smooth surface. Tracking is very precise as well once you adapt to the smooth surface. Even though working surface is incredibly smooth, the back is rubberized anti-slip, so the pad stays in place on your desk. I find cloth mats do move a bit under normal use, the the effective anti-slip on the back is welcome.
For non-gamers, this is also a great mat, looks very premium and professional and is very comfortable to use in an office productivity scenario. Any kind of graphic design work would likely also benefit from the fast, smooth and precise tracking that this glass mat provides.
I definitely switching to this from my cloth mat and have no regrets. Just make sure you have the desk real estate for it, about 16x18"

Super Solid Filing Cabinet That Looks Nice!
on January 31, 2023
Posted by: JoeBlow25
This 2 drawer filing cabinet is very sturdy with plenty of space for its size. The nice thing about this piece is that it looks like a piece of normal home furniture and could easily be mistaken for an end table or side table. The modern yet rustic styling is also very popular right now.
The small size is perfect for even a small home office, but the 2 roomy drawers still provide lots of storage space.
Assembly is easy, however the unopened carton is heavy and may need 2 people to move until you open it and take out the pieces. All hardware is marked and instructions are clear. Materials provided are good quality for this price point, and the heavy construction confirms that.
Each drawer includes rails for hanging file folders, A4 and legal sized and a safety feature is included so that only 1 drawer can open at a time to prevent the cabinet from falling forward.
The cabinet also does not have a lock for the drawers, but since this is obviously intended for home use, I am not sure this is really an issue.
Overall, very happy with this unit, will help me get my files out of boxes and way more organized.

Urban Backpack with fully padded 17.3" laptop compartment. Internal iPad or tablet pocket. Quick access pocket. Front zip-down organizer section. Side accessory pockets. Padded carry handle. Padded backpack straps. Back slip pocket slides over luggage handle. Back zipper pocket.
Posted by: JoeBlow25
This is a very nice professional looking laptop backpack. It's organized as follows:
1. Large zippered slim rear pocket for a laptop upto 17.3".
2. Small zippered pocket at the bottom left of the back side - this is kind of a "hidden" pocket for discreet storage.
3. 2 small zippered side pocket on the left and right sides, good size for small accessories (cables, chargers, batteries, etc...)
4. Very large zippered main pocket - this is my only gripe with the backpack. This is the largest storage area in the whole backpack, but it has very little in the way of organization, just large slim internal pocket for a tablet. Otherwise, it is just a large compartment. My guess is the thinking is that people will put books, folders, etc... in here. I normally don't travel with too many of these types of things, so would have preferred more dividers/pockets in here to better organize things.
5. Medium size zippered pocket on the top front of the backpack.
6. Small size zippered pocket on the top front of the backpack.
7. Large zippered pocket on the bottom front of the backpack, this pocket has dividers/pockets for pens, business cards, etc..

Overall, lots of storage, and most of it is well organized. Backpack is styled well for business travelers as well as students, so a good choice for anyone.

Dominate in style with the powerful 1TB WD_BLACK P40 Game Drive SSD. The downloadable WD_BLACK dashboard gives you full control over the LED light display for a personalized experience every time you play (Windows® only). This high-performance SSD storage features blazing speeds in a compact and shock-resistant design, making it easy to take with you anywhere.
Posted by: JoeBlow25
This is the fastest external SSD I've used to date, and also the smallest.
This is basically a high performance WD black internal NVMe SSD in a really slick external case. The drive feels light, but still rugged in the hand. RGB lighting on the case is a nice touch as well. The size makes it easy to carry in a pants pocket, or small pocket in a backpack.
Includes both USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A cables, so you are covered for older and newer ports.
Benchmarks on my PC show ~1000 MB/s read/write, but my PC doesn't support the latest USB 3.2 2x2 that this drive supports, so I expect speeds on a newer machine to be even faster. That being said, the ~1000 MB/S is the fastest I have ever seen on my PC for any external device.
I did try installing a game on the drive and played and did not experience any noticeable lag compared to when playing on on internal SSD. So this drive definitely performs the job it's advertised to.
To top it all off, the drive comes with a 5-year warranty, this means WD has made these drives to last. Easy choice if you want as superfast external drive for games or anything else.

I am not a professional photographer, but I am a bit of a photography enthusiast. I mostly focused on still images mainly because handheld video is never easy to get right.
So this is the first gimbal I have ever used and I must say I am very impressed. Video while moving is super steady and the ability to track targets is incredibly useful. Still coming up with different ways to use this feature as it opens up so many possibilities.
In the box you get the gimbal, phone clip and tripod and charging cable
Out of the box, set up is easy and intuitive - scan a QR code and download an app, pair the gimbal with Bluetooth. The app offers lots of training for newbies like myself via tutorial videos. And you pick up a lot just by experimenting with the different features.
Physical controls are in easy to use places, and the wheel for zoom and button for swapping between stills and video are very useful. The gimbal is well balanced and ergonomically designed.
This is an easy device to recommend to anyone wanting to take their cell phone videos to the next level.

Don’t let your phone battery die as you go throughout your day. The Insignia NS-MW320C1W22 20W USB-C Compact Wall Charger for iPhone has a high, 20-watt output to quickly charge your iPhone, tablet, smartwatch and more. Its compact and durable body with a foldable plug easily fits into a purse or pocket, ready for when you need it. A simple white design pairs well with your other accessories. Keep your iPhone working as hard as you do with this fast, easy-to-carry charger.
Posted by: JoeBlow25
This is a USB-C charger, no bells or whistles. 20W means your phone charges fast, larger devices will also charge in a decent amount of time. Works with any USB-C device and many others including Apple etc.. with the appropriate cable.
The nicest thing about this charger is the size, very compact, no need to worry about it covering extra socket in your wall or power strip.
The fold away prongs are also nice for travel to keep it compact and prevent getting tangled with charging cables, etc.. Another nice travel feature is this this works with 240V, so with the correct prong adapter, you can use this anywhere you travel.
Charging performance is great, charged my 5000 mAh phone in a little over an hour to ~95% from almost empty.
USB-C devices are becoming ubiquitous now, so you will never be able to have enough USB-C chargers around for all the different places you may need to charge a device. This is a great deal for a compact and very fast charger that can work anywhere. This is an easy choice.

This Oral-B Pro 6000 electric toothbrush with Bluetooth allows the brush to connect with your smartphone to give you real-time feedback on your brushing habits. The advanced design of the CrossAction toothbrush head surrounds each tooth with bristles angled at 16 degrees, and 3D cleaning action oscillates, rotates, and pulsates to break up and remove more plaque. The pressure sensor lights up, if you brush too hard to prevent harmful over-brushing and there are 5 modes and a timer to help you brush for a dentist-recommended time.

Great electric toothbrush, bluetooth is not useful
on September 15, 2022
Posted by: JoeBlow25
This toothbrush is great. Best improvement over previous versions is much longer battery life, can go an entire week brushing twice daily on one charge. The overall aethetic is also improved with a sleeker look and nice lighting pattern when powering on or off.
Included travel case is also great, since the battery life is so good, there is no need to bring the charger with you for shorter trips.
Bluetooth and app are nice, but after you use them once or twice, you probably won't again. I'm not sure how many people need to track the brushing habits on their phone.
Once you start brushing, the brush movement pauses briefly every 30 seconds prompting you to move to a different quadrant of your mouth, and pauses for a longer time after 2 minutes to tell you you are done.
Another improvement in this model is the different brushing modes, I only use the tongue massage for a few seconds at the end of my 2 minute normal brush.
Brush heads are not too expensive to replace compared to similar models out there, so overall this is about as good an electric toothbrush as you can get.

Make a smart solution to upgrade your home security to IndoorCam Mini. Never second-guess what you see in clear 2K resolution, and give yourself control with pan and tilt functions to monitor your home’s most vital areas. IndoorCam Mini features On-Device AI Human Detection, a technology that identifies humans in the frame and only sends you the notifications that matter. After returning home, you can turn on Home Privacy Mode, which turns off the camera and rotates it to your preferred privacy angle. Best of all, there’s no monthly fee after your purchase.

This is a great indoor camera as long as you have a place you can plug it into that is inconspicuous. Great features for a camera at this very reasonable price point include:
-2K video, crisp and clear!
-Night vision video works pretty decent, not color of course, but still good.
-360 pan/tilt is an awesome feature and enables motion tracking and allows for covering a large area.
-Since this is an indoor cam, the privacy mode is essential, so you can set it up to only operate when you want it to and point away when you don't.
-As with all Eufy cameras - no subscription fees, one time cost for camera and thats it!

The SoloCam Solar Spotlight Cam is the latest in cutting-edge eufy Security battery cameras with an integrated solar panel. With the built-in 13,400mAh battery and integrated solar panel, just a few hours of direct sunlight each day is enough to extend the battery life to near-infinite power. When motion is detected at night, the 600-Lumen spotlight will automatically turn on, which will not only help the color night vision, but will also scare off intruders. When it comes to security, the key is in the details. Consumers can see exactly what is happening around their home in crisp 2K clarity, detect humans that come into frame, and filter out false alerts with the built-in local AI technology. There is 8GB eMMC of 60 days free local storage and there’s no monthly fee after your purchase.

The biggest draw of this camera over others is definitely the integrated solar panel which charges the internal battery, so as long as you have a reasonable amount of sunlight, you should never need to take this camera down to charge!
Other features that Eufy has generally nailed on all of its cameras:
-Video Quality - 2K video is crisp and clear
-Spotlight is great for getting color video at night for action reasonably close to the camera
-Night vision is also good when spotlight is not used.
-No subscription fees, fully local storage!
-Motion/person detection works well with lots of customization options
-Video Quality - 2K video is crisp and clear
-Spotlight is great for getting color video at night for action reasonably close to the camera
-Night vision is also good when spotlight is not used.

-Motion/person detection works well with lots of customization options
Overall, another great camera from Eufy!

The new Philips Sonicare Power Flosser creates an X-shaped stream of water that reaches deep between teeth for a gentle, thorough clean. This X-shaped water stream, known as Quad-Stream technology, covers more surface area for a faster, deeper clean versus manual floss. Because of Quad-Steam technology, Philips Sonicare Power Flosser enables you to improve your gum health by 50% in just 1 minute per day!

My first experience with a power flosser. I have been using an electric toothbrush for a few years now and when I started using that I definitely noticed my teeth felt cleaner after brushing compared to a normal toothbrush. The power flosser takes this even further. Now even between my teeth I have that clean just from the dentist feeling. This definitely feels like it does a better job than manual flossing and my dentist actually recommended a power flosser as well.

Nest Connect extends your home network for the Nest Secure alarm system. It will make sure motion sensors and alarms are connected and operational, even for larger homes.
Do it extend range for camera
No, this only extends the range of devices that connect to the nest guard. The cameras connect over Wi Fi and not directly to the nest guard.

Will these head phones need to be connected tot he phone to use the noise cancelling function or can they operate as noise cancelling headphones whithout having to be connected to anything?
They will cancel noise whether or not they are connected to anything as long as they haven't run out of battery.

Hi, I just read that these headphones should be charged thru a booted computer. Does that mean I can’t use a wall charger for this? I’m a frequent traveler and I don’t always a laptop or pc around. Can I not just plug it in thru a wall adapter?
You can use a wall charger to charge. This is how I charge mine.

Can these headphones work as noise cancelling without having to be connected to the phone (like the Bose)?
Yes, noise cancelling turns on whether or not Bluetooth is connected. It turns on by default when you power on the headphones and there is a button to toggle it on/off.

Let’s say the battery dies and I connect with a wire. Will noise cancelling work? I know Bose QC35 will provide a sound but no noise cancelling on that case. What about Sony?
Noise cancelling requires power, so I would imaging the noise cancelling turns of as well.

Does the quick attention mode turn on when you rest your head against the the side of the airplane or headrest ? If so, can this feature be turned off ?
No, it seems to need your hand (or something conductive - similar to a touch screen).
