Preeminent Protection for Your Loved Ones
on January 18, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
Nest Protect Smart Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Alarm provides the ultimate protection & peace of mind. The intelligent alerts discriminate between steam and smoke. A clear "Heads Up!" pre-alert gently cautions you in situations when close proximity to steam or a little smoke in the kitchen, for example, is about to trigger an alert. You can silence a false alarm using your phone. Multiple units share alerts to all rooms & to your NEST App on your phone, tablet & computer - so you are protected throughout your home!
The "Promise" is a ring of green light that illuminates nightly to let you know everything is good. Walk under NEST at night & the ring glows white, forming a pathlight. During Heads Up, it glows yellow. During an emergency, it glows red.
NEST Protect self-tests, alerting you first by the phone app that it will sound. Everything is tested: sensors / voice / siren. Tests are dated & are sent to your app. A monthly summary even shows the exact date & time of each test.
This is the premiere smoke detector, able to detect CO2 (even produces a completely different sound, for instant identification). NEST Protect senses both fast and slow burning fires.
NO CHIRPS!! This advanced Smoke Alarm eliminates all of the hassles of pesky chirps from low batteries, with super long lasting Lithium Batteries included that last years. Battery alerts are through your App & by voice on the Alarm.
To set-up, simply scan the QR Code on the back of the NEST & follow the voice instructions. Easiest set-up ever!
NEST Protect earns my highest recommendation - no other Smoke / CO2 Alarm even comes close!

Best of the Breed
on January 18, 2018

from Lexington, KY
AVG built a reputable name for many years, offering free Industry-Leading Antivirus Protection. The Ultimate is a Quantum Leap forward in the form of a 1-Year Subscription that includes a stunning array of protection options at extremely reasonable cost.
AVG Ultimate offers Firewall & comprehensive protection from Antivirus, Malware, Ransomware, Spam, Fake Websites, Privacy Protection (for Webcams), Payment Protection & many more. It even offers TuneUp with an updater to maintain the latest app updates.
My favorite feature is the unlimited installs. This is completely unheard of in the industry today. You can protect all of your Mac & PC computers, all iPads & other tablets, even all iPhones or Android phones - no limit. Monitor the protection from one location.
AVG Ultimate 1 Year Subscription is a true bargain. It earns my "Best of the Breed" designation hands down!

The AVANT-GARDE Security Camera
on January 2, 2018
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
INTRODUCTION:
I bought 4) Nest Cam IQ Cameras from Best Buy to replace 4) Drop Cam Pro cameras with annual subscriptions. This was no easy decision, as the Drop Cam Pros were working perfectly. The advanced performance of the new IQ is stunning!! So stunning that I just pre-ordered 6) Outdoor Nest Cam IQ that Best Buy sells discounted in 2-packs to join these Indoor cams.
IMPROVEMENTS OVER PREVIOUS CAMERA:
1- 8K resolution sensor delivers a MUCH sharper image
2- Lower light sensitivity produces a much brighter image in low light
3- Higher quality lens adds to the sharper image
4- Auto Zoom feature is amazing. Camera sees & tracks motion beautifully
5- Facial recognition / Familiar Face Detection works great most of the time. It even recognizes the difference between our 2) orange Tabby cats & identifies the cats by name!
6- Speaker is much more powerful
7- 3) levels of video compression are user settable in the App for each Nest IQ Camera you own. This is extremely useful for cameras that are located a great distance from your WiFi router; increasing the video compression rate on that camera will reduce or eliminate the delay (seen as a spinning wheel with a delay in showing the image on your phone or tablet) in transmitting a clear photo. Cameras located in stronger Wi-Fi signal areas can be set to the highest quality / lowest video compression. This will deliver a video in stunning quality.
8- User adjustable on / off front indicator light is very useful.
9- Ask Amazon Echo Show to "Show me the Deck" (or any room in which it is located) and you instantly receive a live video feed from Nest Cam IQ
10- Select Push notifications for Only People / Motion / Sound / Combination
11- IR is much more powerful with more emitters for a much brighter & therefore offer sharper & clearer night vision
WHAT IS LEFT TO IMPROVE?
The Familiar Face Recognition will occasionally identify my wife or me as a new face if we go by the camera quickly, or are seen through a glass door at an angle that distorts our image. It asks: "Do you know this person?" & "What is their Name?" I type in my wife's or my own name. At that point, the app should combine the picture with the many pictures already captured with the same name identified, but it does not. Unfortunately, it creates a new file with my wife's or my name & the picture just captured. So I have several Familiar Face files with her or my name that cannot be combined. I have already eliminated several files with our same names. Again, facial recognition / familiar face works most of the time & is a great tool.
CONCLUSION:
The Nest Cam IQ Camera is an amazing engineering accomplishment & it easily earns my Highest Recommendation!!

Ticket to Freedom
on December 29, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
PRELIMINARY THOUGHTS:
MOHU SUPREME multi-directional antenna is a premium top-of-the-line indoor antenna. MOHU indoor antennas are the highest rated in the industry for a reason. They work consistently & install with no fuss. I connected mine to an LG HDTV, located on the ground floor of a brick house. It took longer to open the box & remove the components than to plug it in my TV. I simply pressed Auto Tune, and the TV found 17 digital channels, all crystal clear.
PROS:
1- Simply plug it in and press auto tune on your HDTV. You have digital TV channels!
2- Powerful 15dB gain.
3- Paper thin! Dimensions: 21.5” x 11.5” x 0.04”.
4- So easy to connect, no instructions are needed; uses a standard 75 ohm F Connector, the standard “TV” screw-on connector.
5- Up to a 65 mile reception.
6- I pick up 17 digital channels in a metropolitan area with a population of approximately 318,000.
7- Works equally well with HDTV & 4K TV.
8- 2) detachable 10’ white premium quality coaxial cables are included with a barrel connector to add them together for 20 feet distance from the TV. This is a great idea, because in my case, 10 feet is more than sufficient, so I did not need to hide the extra 10 feet of cable. Installation is much easier because the cable can be routed neatly after the antenna is placed.
9- In our area, 720P HDTV is broadcast, and it looks exactly the same as cable, with no jitter or interference.
10- No need to aim this antenna; because it is multi directional, you locate it where you prefer, and do not need to place it a certain direction to pul in a signal.
11- One side of the antenna is white; the other is black to blend with any décor.
12- Standard detachable USB 5 Volt power supply to power the amplified antenna. This further simplifies installation; plug it in after all wires are routed & hidden.
CONS:
None.
CONCLUSION:
MOHU offers the ticket to freedom from the cord. For the very modest cost of the MOHU Supreme, once you buy this antenna, there are no monthly charges to watch whatever channels you can receive - whenever you choose. It feels great to cut the cord! HOHU SUPREME multi-directional antenna earns my Highest rating!

Wireless Nirvana
on December 27, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS:
The Logitech G613 is a trend setting keyboard, combining the best tactile feel & no latency connection with uncluttered wireless interface. The G613 offers freedom to sit on the couch & to move around, unrestricted by wires, without compromise!
PROS:
1- Ultra High Performance WIRELESS Gaming Keyboard! Performance is not sacrificed.
2- Keys feel lightning fast & positive: a Gamer's delight.
3- Elegant 2-tone design perfectly compliments my G903 & G703 Gaming Mice & 2) PowerPlay Wireless Charging Systems (see 2 photos).
4- Proven Lightspeed ultra high speed instant connection, same as my G903 & G703 mice. No connection lag.
5- A very well designed, matching cell phone stand is included.
6- Bluetooth connection is onboard, as well as Lightspeed. Easy touch selection on the keyboard enables fast switching from one device to another.
7- Logitech Gaming Software is proven & is easy to use.
8- Up to 18-month battery life, using 2) off-the-shelf Alkaline batteries. Low battery indicators engage at 15% remaining battery life.
9- Romer-G Pro key switches are rated to withstand 70 million keypresses & feature a 1ms response rate.
10- 6 programmable macro G keys are easy to assign, using Logitech Gaming Software. For non gaming applications, assign mouse left-click & right-click for versatility.
11- Built-in rear flip-up keyboard stand.
12- On-Off Switch is easy to access.
13- Stable keyboard weighs 3.2# (with batteries), enhancing confidence.
14- Competitively priced.
15- Works equally well with Mac OS or Windows. Two photos show it on my desk with dual 4K monitors & the Mac Pro.
16- Game Mode toggle switch: Game Mode (slide switch to the right) disables Windows, Function & Menu keys to eliminate possible distraction from tapping the wrong key during games.
17- If you prefer rechargeable batteries, simply provide 2) inexpensive Eneloop or equivalent AA batteries in place of Alkaline.
18- 2-Year Warranty.
19- Perfect compliment to Logitech G devices, such as 903, 703 & PowerPlay.
20- Play / Pause, Stop, Move R, Move L, Volume Up / Down & Mute keys are onboard.
CONS:
1- No Lighting (I do not miss it).
2- Large keyboard (18.8" x 8.5" x 1.3") requires ample space on the desk.
3- Wrist rest is very comfortable, but is not removable.
CONCLUSION:
The Logitech G613 offers Wireless Nirvana! This Gaming Keyboard offers precision feel with no latency in a killer package. At home even in non gaming use, I moved my Logitech Craft high end keyboard off my desk to enjoy the G613 for awhile. The G613 earns my HIGHEST recommendation & holds a permanent spot on my desk - see attached photos!

Convection Magic!
on December 23, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
The De’Longhi Livenza Oven is an amazing appliance! It is a high performance convection oven & replaces the microwave for quick heating in many situations. We tested it against our Professional $3,500 "Trivection Oven", a 30" built-in oven with Convection / Standard Cooking & Microwave assist. Read on for the results...
LIKES:
1- The trusted De’Longhi name makes a premium quality & safety statement.
2- Safety stabs on the back of the oven cabinet press against the back wall & maintain proper spacing to the wall, assuring a safe distance for proper heat flow behind the oven.
3- Very attractive design.
4- Heavy Duty 16-gauge electric cord shows the engineering attention to detail applied throughout this quality appliance & features a space saving 90 degree turn at the appliance.
5- Ideal size for a 2nd oven.
6- Includes a number of accessories.
7- Stainless steel exterior on sides & top show a professional look.
8- Beautiful, colorful electronic display.
9- Well packaged from De'longhi for safe arrival.
10- Double walled glass door retains heat & improves efficiency.
11- All included pans are non-stick.
12- Quiet!
13- Highly energy efficient.
14- Easy to clean. The catch tray below the heating element is dishwasher safe.
15- Four positions for the cooking rack.
16- Interior light is bright & really shows what is cooking.
17- Uniform heating.
18- Very simple to use, with an intuitive design.
19- Toast has it's own function: Place bread on the tray, select "toast" & the number of pieces you're toasting; press start.
20- "Keep Warm" function serves as a warming drawer.
DISLIKES:
1- Polished chrome should NOT be on the center of handle – it looks great but makes cleaning finger prints more labor intensive than brushed stainless.
2- Accessories are not listed, yet are needed; for example, you need a second rack to cook 2) pizzas. The second rack is sold separately & is not included with this oven.
CONCLUSION:
Check out the Basa with Mediterranean seasonings in the attached photos!! This oven baked this fish perfectly! Next, we convection baked 3) batches of cookies in this oven & in our $3,500 professional "Trivection Oven". Same Batch. Same cookies. Same Fabulous results! Both ovens produced cookies with identical texture & flavor!
This De’Longhi Livenza Oven is a highly useful appliance & earned my Highest 5 Star Recommendation!

Google Home Mini is a smart speaker powered by the Google Assistant, so you can ask it questions and tell it to do things. Just start with "Ok Google" to enjoy your entertainment, get answers from Google, tackle your day, and control your smart home. Google Home Mini works on its own or you can have a few around the house, giving you the power of Google anywhere."

Mini Minimalism
on December 15, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
Google Home Mini is a versatile miniature rendition of Google Home with a smaller, yet surprisingly good sounding speaker. Similar to it's larger sibling, simply call out "OK Google" or "Hey Google" and speak your request.
The strong suit, not surprising, for this Google assistant, is to address a question that can be answered by Google search engine. That is where it really shines & blows away it's competition. For this reason I recommend owning at least one of these or one of the full sized Google Home, if you prefer.
If you already own a competitive virtual assistant, I recommend you buy this Google Home Mini. Owning both one or more Google Home Mini's and a competitive assistant make perfect sense. Each has a specialty and can do specific tasks better than the other. Owning BOTH offers you the best of both worlds.
In addition to voice controls (that I prefer), tap the top to pause or resume music playback, and you can tap and hold to activate the Assistant. To adjust the volume, you tap the sides of the device. Or best yet, simply SPEAK your command!
I recommend the Google Home Mini!

Irresistible Real Moving Prey Simulator
on December 15, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am generally one who researches product reviews but when I went to Best Buy to pick up the new Nest IQ Cam, I saw this Petcube Play & bought it on the spot as an impulse - what pet would not deserve such an innovative cat toy!
I returned it the next day, because it appeared to have a problem. When the 2nd one had the same problem, I called the manufacturer, who offers 24/7 live help!! I was pleasantly surprised by the clear speaking, super helpful, intelligent technical support they offered.
Here is what to watch for, if you buy it: Petcube moves the laser around and chases the cat, then stops and rests. The original rest time was an hour. Nowhere in the instructions do they mention a wait time. So it appeared to be defective. They pushed a firmware update for me that is now a standard update. It reduced the rest time to about 15 minutes. That is ideal.
Our 3) rescued cats sit by the cube, waiting for it to come on. They have to move after 15 minutes of rest time to wake it up. They go crazy & pounce on the laser. Petcube sends a clear video to your free app each time there is movement. You can clearly see your cat's antics chasing the red laser "prey"!
This is one of the best cat toys we have ever bought!! Voted #1 by our 3) cats by spending the most time chasing & waiting for it! Petcube earns my HIGHEST recommendation!!

Rich Color HUE Bulb for Candelabra Base
on December 8, 2017
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
In order to use HUE in as many rooms (and outdoors) as possible, I changed several light fixtures that had Candelabra sockets to fixtures with the older Medium Base sockets. That enabled me to use HUE bulbs, which were previously only available in the larger size base. Now HUE is also available in the Candelabra base!
They are pricey, but these are the smartest & the brightest LED lights available today in this small base. They are bright & the colors are the same as with the "full size" Medium Base HUE bulbs.
Lumens: 450
Average Life (hours): 25,000
Shape: E12 Candelabra
Energy used: 6-Watt
Lumens per watt: 80-Watt
Watt Equivalence: 40 Watt
These Generation 3 bulbs produce rich multicolor light just like existing Medium Base HUE bulbs & work with the same software & app as the other HUE bulbs & Light Strips.
These bulbs, like all HUE products, easily earn my 5-Star Rating!

Can i use them on a vacant lot? No power and no wifi, so can I get a data plan for them? I have verizon?

You can only use them in a vacant lot if they can reach the Hub that comes with them. The Hub connects to the internet via an Ethernet cable (included). So you would need the Hub plugged into the Internet to wirelessly reach the camera.

Can you pair Arlo pro 2 cameras with this system as well? We have 2 arlo pro 2 cameras we would like to utilize on the new system if possible.

YES! I paired 5) of my Arlo Pro 2 Cameras with one new Ultra Camera. All must use the new Smart Hub. The new Smart Hub included with the Ultra Cam will work beautifully with Pro 2. However, the Ultra cam will not work with your old hub.

Thank You!

How long do the rechargeable batteries last?

The rechargeable batteries last YEARS. I owned my previous Arlo Pro & Pro 2 cameras for 5 years & the built-in rechargeable batteries charge as good as new.

Will the base link up to wifi or does it have to be wired?

The base must connect to your internet using an included Ethernet cable. Simply plug it into your router and you are connected! It does not have Wireless connection

Thank you!

Can you use RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES IN THE CAMERAS? I HAVE SEEN THAT SOME PEOPLE SAY YES AND SOME SAY NO. IF NO, WHAT IS THE REASON?

The Ultra includes an outstanding Li-iON Rechargeable Battery. No other rechargeable battery will fit inside this battery chamber! Use the included rechargeable battery only & you will love it!

Thank you!

We purchased 2 VueZone zone base stations and 2 cameras not so long ago. Then they shut down the cloud!! Are they compatible?? Is it possible that netgear do a trade in or discount?? Perfectly good cameras going to waste... Can we do a deal??

I am sorry, the Ultra is not compatible with VueZone. There are others who may want to buy these cameras for a good deal from you, due to the future obsolescence. You might consider listing them for sale privately.

Be assured that Arlo is the undisputed leader in residential Security. They are financially well positioned to maintain their long term status in the Security Marketplace. You will be making a great decision by stopping up to the Arlo Ultra!

Thank You!
