Solution to Cable Sticking Out the Side of an HDTV
on March 17, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11

Verified Purchase:Yes
AudioQuest 90 degree HDMI Adaptors eliminate the cable sticking out of the side of an HDTV by redirecting it to a right angle. Just be aware there are 2 models: Narrow and Wide. Study your TV or device to see which you need. I use 2 or 3 of these adaptors end to end to point the cable 180 or 270 degrees from the direction it started - and a clean look to the side & behind the TV!
Absolutely NO signal loss on 4K UHD!

Wireless Camera Fills a Security Niche!!

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Arlo Pro Cameras far exceed my expectations! I was at first turned off by the 720P, having 4) DropCam Pro 1080P cameras in my home already. But the Arlo Pro resolution is comparable to the 1080P cams & offers these benefits:
1- it is completely wireless,
2- cloud monitoring is free up to 5) cameras,
3- they are completely portable,
4- their own hub produces a much more robust connection than WiFi Cameras,
5- the auto IR works perfectly,
6- there are silicon skins to protect the exterior & convert to black
7- there are white & black aluminum weather resistant brackets!
8- the cameras are water resistant for outdoor & indoor use
9- 3-month life using the Li-ion built-in battery!
10- Bright, clear images

Competition is Knocking on Alexa's Door...
on February 3, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Google Home offers a more in depth internet research capability, as you would expect, with the Google Search Engine Access. Here is a summary of Pro's & Con's that I observed:
Google Home Pro's:
1- In depth internet search
2- Accessory color scheme available to customize appearance
3- Closest Google Home answers, unlike Amazon Echo, where ALL devices answer that hear you from various rooms
4- Cost advantage. Google Home has a lower price point than Amazon Echo. Cannot compare with Amazon Dot, as it does not have the powerful internal amp & speakers
5- Google Home is more interactive; after answering a question, if you ask a related question, Google Home can continue as though in a conversation
6- Google Account integration is a distinct advantage

5- Google Home is more interactive; after answering a question, if you ask a related question, Google Home can continue as though in a conversation
6- Google Account integration is a distinct advantage
Google Home Con's:
1- Sound is very good, but clearly less bass than Alexa delivers
2- Far fewer Home Automation devices respond to Google Home. Alexa has a huge head start & networks with many devices. Google Home has a lot of catching up to do!
3- Fewer far field microphones (3 compared with Alexis' 7) work fine, but when compared, Alexis wins this point
4- Far fewer "skills" than Amazon Echo. Each device is increasing the number of skills, but Google is behind for now
5- Amazon Prime offers over 1,000,000 free songs to Prime members & holds the advantage for music access for Amazon Prime members
6- Amazon Echo can easily order, review & track Amazon orders - a disadvantage for Google Home

Outstanding Functionality & Convenience!
on February 3, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from LEXINGTON, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Apple AirPods are brilliantly engineered & are unique in so many ways. Audio quality is excellent; tap on the AirPod to access Siri; no wires; insert either or both & you are connected accordingly. Self charge in the case with internal Li-Ion battery; noise cancellation works great!
I can only identify one negative: The strong magnet built in the case that retains the 2) AirPods is so strong, it is very difficult for an individual with large fingers & thumb to grasp the super slick & curved AirPods to remove them! They keep sliding away from your fingers, occasionally lifting up 1/2 inch out of the case, only to be sucked back into the case by the over zealous magnet. There needs to be a release button that would push the AirPods away from the magnet about 1/4". This would make it much easier to lift them out of the case.

Versatile HDMI Cable Direction Change Adaptor

Posted by: gadgetguy11
from LEXINGTON, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Audioquest is designed to eliminate the cable sticking out of the side of an HDTV & redirect it 90 degrees. I bought 2) for each of the 3) inputs I am using, in order to point the cable 180 degrees back toward the center of the TV. Works great, and as you should expect from Audioquest, absolutely no loss or signal degradation.

Reference Standard 4K Ultra Hd Blu-Ray + Streaming
on January 30, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from LEXINGTON, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Panasonic is the Reference Standard 4K Ultra Hd Video Blu-Ray Player of 2017. I bought the lower cost & highly advertised S****** 4K Blu-Ray on Black Friday, not knowing this Panasonic player existed. I found this Panasonic on Bestbuy.com, so I ordered it & returned the lower cost model.
This player weighs about 4 times a much as the other & is clearly designed as a high end machine. The remote is large with easy to read buttons. The front panel display is clear. It gets down to business very quickly; loads & starts the Blu-Ray or DVD in a fraction of the time as it's competition.
Streaming is fantastic & smooth! Amazon Prime works extremely well, is easy to control; pause stops / starts play instantly. Streaming is very similar to the built-in streaming on the latest E Series ULED LG TV's - which is the best I have ever experienced.
Colors & ultra black levels are amazing!!
This Panasonic is truly a Reference Standard Blu-Ray / Streaming Player!!

Solid Fit - Attractive Design - Finicky Ear Pieces
on January 27, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
These sharp looking JBL headphones are designed for active users. They are engineered to stay on your ears during the most aggressive workouts but have very finicky ear pieces, known as: "enhancements", that are frustrating to set up.
Here is a summary of 10) Pro's & Con's:
PRO'S
1- Twistlock design retains headphones securely. Compared with the Apple AirPods, these headphones will not fall off your head during physical exercise & running, even in rain & / or sweating conditions. - Best Feature!
2- Very attractive appearance & design.
3- Good 12" length for connecting cord - if anything, it could be 1/2" longer.
4- Beautiful packaging with magnetic closure.
5- JBL name & reputation.
6- Classy water resistant carry pouch with silicon texture exterior.
7- Heart rate monitor works reliably, but I always wear an Apple Watch Generation 2, so I could have skipped that feature & saved $50.
8- Solid, easy to connect Bluetooth provides 25' range from source.
9- Superior sound isolation - those around you do not hear bits or pieces of your music.
10- Handy cord retaining clip.

9- Superior sound isolation - those around you do not hear bits or pieces of your music.
10- Handy cord retaining clip.
CON'S
1- "Enhancers" (silicon ear pieces) are a pain to install for big fingered people like me. They are a lot of trouble to deal with; there should be a simpler method to insure proper fit to the ear canal. - Worst Feature!
2- Disappointing sound quality, totally dependent upon proper seal with the ear. Primarily high frequencies heard and virtually no bass with Size 7 enhancers. After struggling to try Size 6 in order to possibly hear more bass, I decided to put up with the lack of bass, rather than fiddle any longer & probably tear the enhancers.
3- Compared with Apple AirPods, which do not require fiddling to achieve great sound, these JBL's do require considerable fiddling to get good sound with bass frequencies - and the AirPods sound better.
4- Compared with Apple AirPods, which insert in your ear & automatically connect via Bluetooth, these JBL's require manual pressing & holding the button to connect or disconnect Bluetooth.
5- I feel for $199, the free One year membership to MapMyRun app should be free Lifetime membership.
6- Printed documentation has tiny print, with barely legible font.
7- Compared with the dual microphone Apple AirPods, which serve as noise cancellation, these JBL's pick up the noise around you & make it difficult for the person on the other end to hear & to understand you. I peal them off my ears and take the calls with my iPhone now, so each of us can hear one another. Useless for phone calls except in a very quiet setting.
8- Bluetooth control is a pain, located on the wire itself & nearly midway between the ears with tiny buttons.
9- "Adjust headphones" prompt is annoying as you put the headphones on or take them off.
10- Separate pairing required for sound & for heartbeat monitoring.

Blazing Speed, Best In Class Performance!
on January 11, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
The Linksys - Velop Tri-Band Whole Home Wi-Fi System (3-pack) is packaged in a beautiful & functional box with magnetic closure - it exudes quality! Each Node is protected individually. Just looking at the box, you expect a premium, esoteric product... & Linksys delivers that & more in spades! The shapely Nodes are beautiful & blend with any decorating style.
Simple set-up via the Linksys iOS or Android App. Within minutes, you are ready to go online.
As shown in attached photo, I have 90 wireless devices utilized over 5,000 sq feet / 3 floors: this is a challenging application for high speed Wi-Fi that includes: connected major appliances; BAS ceiling fans & Haiku Wi-Fi connected lights; Wi-Fi Thermostats; Netatmo Wi-Fi Weather Station; 65 Hue Lights; Connected exterior door locks; Wink Wi-Fi connected devices; connected iDevices, Nest & Arlo cameras; iPads; iPhones & computers. Finally, Streaming from 4) Apple TV's; Nixplay Wi-Fi Photo Frames.
And now the Results:
Velop delivers the fastest Wi-Fi speed I have ever experienced and does so consistently! The attached screen capture shows 349 Mbps Download / 23 Mbps Upload. These are WIRELESS speeds!! I pay for 300 Mbps Download / 30 Mbps Upload & our internet service provider generally delivers 300 - 360 Download & 22 - 32 Upload.
Velop is the only Wi-Fi System I have found to date that actually delivers this sustainable speed and does not randomly disconnect the many devices.
High power Wi-Fi requires a high current source. Each of the 3) square white power supplies produce 12 Volt, 2 Amp output! 24VA (Volt Amps) is the highest output of any router I have tested. Better yet, the cable that plugs into each Velop is perfectly angled at the plug so the wire routs neatly through the cable management feature at the base. Brilliant design!
PRO's:
1- Fastest Wi-Fi Speed
2- Easy approximate 10 minute Set-up per hub
3- Velop Nodes are very attractive & blend with any architecture
4- Robust infrastructure yields dependable performance
5- 24/7 Support
6- 3-Year Warranty
7- Easy to use App with great diagnostics
8- Wire Management at the base is excellent & offers a wire free appearance.
9- Three Velop Nodes establish fast Wi-Fi speed across the house on any floor.
10- Expandable: Add an additional Node any time you prefer.

10- Expandable: Add an additional Node any time you prefer.
CON's:
1- IP Address range cannot be changed from: 192.***. My 2) existing Apple Time Capsule / Routers had IP addresses of 10.***, but they can be set to different ranges. A different IP Address range requires individually resetting a few devices that previously connected to the other range. For example, each Nixplay connected frame had to manually "Forget" the old Wi-Fi name of the previous SSID, then set up the same name with Velop, even though the Wi-Fi name and password are the same. On 13) Apple Airport Express devices, I had to power down each device to reset it from 10.*** to 192.***
2- IPv6 is not supported as of product release. This is surprising, as my three year old Apple Time Capsule / Router supported IPv6.
3- The first unit set up in under 10 minutes; however the remaining two hubs froze at the same exact place midway every time during set-up. After 6 failed attempts, I held each Node horizontally and kept my hand around it. Surprisingly, this procedure resulted in a virtually immediate set-up! Then I set each Node vertically & it continued to work great.
4- Only one Node can connect to the internet via ethernet. The other Nodes connect to the first Node via wireless mesh connection. I would prefer the option of connecting each Node to a wired ethernet connection. Linksys Technical Support indicated this may be added later as a software update. This would prove beneficial because the Nodes must be located fairly close together (my tests showed less than 40 feet apart at most).

CONCLUSION: My search for the "Ideal" Whole Home Wi-Fi System that consistently delivers 300 Mbps over 5,000 square feet with 90 devices ends here!! I am THRILLED with Velop & give it my highest recommendation!! It has proven to be the BEST ROUTER available for 2017!

ELEGANT UNTETHERED SECURITY + FREE CLOUD STORAGE
on December 21, 2016
Posted by: gadgetguy11
Arlo Pro by NETGEAR offers an elegant, truly wireless solution to security. The 2) High Definition 720P cameras included with the base in this package are each powered by a removable, rechargeable Li-ion battery. Picture quality is excellent & each camera can be located quite a distance from the included hub. I cannot find a weak point within my 5,000 sq foot house - including outside on the porch or on the deck.
Each camera includes a powerful magnetic wall mount, adjustable to view at any angle. One power adaptor & cable is included to charge a camera / battery when needed. With typical use, the battery is estimated to keep it's charge for several months!
These cameras are super easy to set up! Basically load the app on your phone / iPad, plug in the base & press a button!
The motion sensitivity is amazing! I set a camera on the front porch, parallel with the street, which is about 60 feet from the house. Each passing car triggered an email alert. Playing the captured video back, you could easily see the car color, make & model - and immediately recognize which neighbor was driving by!
I own 4) competitive 1080P security cameras for which I pay $250 / year to monitor the 4) with a 10-day Cloud storage. While they deliver a slightly more detailed picture, they each must be plugged in to the wall to operate & if you lose power, you lose the picture. On the other hand, these Arlo Pro cameras are very close in resolution to those 1080P cameras, feature automatic built-in IR emitters for night vision up to 25 feet away, are self-powered by an internal battery for true security, and feature a very easy to use App.
A HUGE money saving benefit with Arlo Pro is FREE 7-Day CLOUD STORAGE for up to 5 cameras!! Once you buy the cameras, you are set & do not have any additional costs for monitoring!
My uses include:
1- Front Door Cam
2- Front Door Side Profile View Cam
3- Deck Cam
4- Patio Cam
5a- The 5th camera will serve as a portable, carry around camera for short term, temporary use. When I smoke meat, vegetables or cheese in the Big Green Egg, I can sit this camera in front of the optional digital temperature controller to read smoker set point & actual temp reading anywhere, using the Arlo app, with multiple users.
5b- When we are away, place the 5th portable camera in the cat tree to keep track of our kitties' antics.

Can you use this to scan documents and save them to PDF?
YES! It creates PDF's directly, or JPEGS, or scans to files, desktop, or printer. There are MANY options!
The Epson - WorkForce ES-500W II Wireless Duplex Desktop Document Scanner is my favorite appliance in my Home Office. It has a very small footprint (6.6" Wide) & blends with any office decor.
I was shocked on my first scan by the speed & resolution of the image! The paper zoomed through the scanner, producing a beautiful image of BOTH SIDES of the paper!
There are many options: Scan to Print, to Desktop, to Dropbox, to Email, just to name a few. Scan JPEG, PDF, and many other options.
Load up to 50 pages at once & work as it scans both sides simultaneously at up to 35 copies / minute (black) or slightly slower for color. I set my DPI to 300. It came default at 200 DPI & will go as high as 1200 DPI.
I elected to connect this scanner wirelessly using WIFI, rather than USB. The Wireless Networking capability is amazing! Equally simple to connect on both my Windows 10 & my MacOS 10.14.6 without using USB. I can access it from another computer in the house over 50 feet away using WIFI.
It is QUIET! You can have a Zoom Meeting while this Scanner is working without conflict. Easy to identify LED's show connectivity on the front panel. Please see 6) photos I posted that show this scanner in use on my desk.
CONCLUSION: The Epson WorkForce ES-500W II is the BEST Office Scanner I have ever owned & I have owned virtually every brand in existence. It is my favorite appliance in my office & I recommend it without reservation!

Is this scanner easy to use with a Mac?
YES!! I use it with a Mac Pro running MacOS 10.14.6 and my wife uses Windows 10. This is the first scanner I have ever owned that honestly is equally as easy to connect on MacOS as it is on Windows 10. I LOVE IT!!
