Best LED Bulb!
on June 24, 2016
Posted by: gadgetguy11

Verified Purchase:Yes
I installed a BAS Ceiling Fan with light kit in my bathroom. (I cannot list the name because Best Buy thinks it is profanity). Unfortunately, wiring from the overhead fixture is tied to the vanity light. The ceiling fan is a smart, connected product that needs to stay energized all of the time. I solved this by installing 6) HUE bulbs in the vanity fixture & programmed them to this wireless wall switch. This allows touch control of the vanity light, while the smart fan / light kit sense motion & come on automatically.
The programmable light switch looks like a wired switch, works just as reliably & is easy to program. Highest recommendation!

Hue Go Offers Versatility in Contemporary Lighting
on March 4, 2016
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from LEXINGTON, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Hue Go is one of my favorite lights in the Hue collection. I use them as a "sphere of color". I sit one on each boring looking AirPlay speaker, plug it in, and select a color for the mood desired in that room. this is my 5th Hue Go. It sits on top of a large, ugly, boring Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). Hue Go has feet, just for this use, so you look at the flat edge of color. Timers are set for automatic on/off color change throughout the day.
Another added benefit is, because it is also battery powered, should the power go off, grab one and go - you have a light for several hours without searching for a flashlight.
Most will probably use this light as a rechargeable carry around mood light. We don't. They each stay in a fixed location. For us, it is the "color ambiance" that they provide that is so cool!

HUE Lightstrip Plus Brings Music Every Hour!
on January 29, 2016
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from LEXINGTON, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
As an early HUE adopter, I started with each bulb variety & the original Lightstrips. This updated Lightstrip is 10X brighter than the original!
I have an unusual use for my first 2) Lightstrip Plus: I bought a wall clock that plays music with the internal Clarion System. The light sensor in this clock will not allow the sound to play, because it thinks our Family Room is too dark so it keeps it silenced! So I installed 2) strips on the back of 2) contemporary Pole Lights, so the lights are not seen from the room. They flood the walls with light, and the clock chimes beautiful music every hour! I use the HUE Alarm function to turn the Lightstrip Plus off during the night, and anytime I want silence.
They are a wonderful product and work better than I could have imagined, based on comparisons with the original Lightstrip!!

Clean narrow and awkward areas with this Dyson Flexi crevice tool. It has a stiff nylon brush to loosen debris, letting you vacuum up even ground-in dirt. The extendable rubber section of this Dyson Flexi crevice tool is strong enough to hold up to steady use and flexible enough to bend into hard-to-reach areas.

Flexible, long reaching Dyson Pick-Up Tool
on October 19, 2015
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from LEXINGTON, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
This extra long, extendable pick-up tool works with the battery powered Dyson vacs, as well as the upright and the canister models. It is completely different from the tool that is included with Animal. It extends out if you choose, and reaches 3 times further than the stock model. It is thinner, and the flexible element is rubber, so it bends around corners.
I find it extremely useful, and bought 3 so one is onboard with the canister model, and two snap on the holder for 2) battery Dyson stick vacs for easy access.
Highly recommend!!

A "Must Have" Addition to any Hue Light Set-up!
on August 8, 2014
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from LEXINGTON, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
Hue is an outstanding light system. However,here are frequent times when you want to turn the lights on or off without using your iPhone or iPad. Enter Hue Tap! Using kinetic energy, now a simple press, and Hue is on or off! This is a necessary addition to any Hue Lighting set-up.
The kinetic energy design is a first, and is appropriate, considering Hue is an energy saving LED light system. Hue Tap can sit on a table, mount on a wall, so the versatility is excellent.
If I could change anything, I would add the ability to change color on the fly directly from Tap, but you have the ability to control light scenes, which work well.

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.

Safeguard your home with this Arlo security camera system. Its 4K resolution provides maximum clarity so you don't miss a single detail, and a siren is integrated so you can fend off intruders either remotely or while at home. This Arlo security camera system is weather-resistant, so it's functional rain or shine.
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.

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!

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!
