CONS:
1- The M650L quoted 400-4000 DPI provides accurate cursor positioning for most users. However, moving the mouse very quickly after the mouse sits at rest results in a noticeable lag in the cursor response as it attempts to catch up with the quick hand movement. This will not represent an issue with most users, however. This mouse is not designed for gaming use, where 0 lag is required.

My test computer is a Mac Pro with internal Broadcom Bluetooth Receiver with Low Energy Supported & 2.7 GHz 12-Core Intel Xeon E5 with 64 GB 1866 MHz DDR3 memory located 30" away from the M650L mouse. Your cursor response may differ, depending upon your specific Bluetooth receiver & it's proximity to the mouse.
SUMMARY:
The M650 L is an ideal mouse for most users. Recommended.

Waterpik Sonic-Fusion 2.0 White is the world's first flossing electric toothbrush, now new and improved with up to 2X the bristle tip speed vs. the original Sonic-Fusion. Now you can brush, water floss, or both with the touch of a button! Waterpik water flosser technology is built into the advanced sonic toothbrush to deliver a complete clean in one step. Tested and trusted, Waterpik is the #1 water flosser brand recommended by dental professionals. Sonic-Fusion 2.0 offers 3 cleaning modes: brush, floss, or brush + floss together and 2 toothbrush speed settings, high and low. The sonic toothbrush cleans the surfaces of your teeth while the water flosser in the center of the brush head cleans between teeth and below the gumline where toothbrush bristles can't reach. Waterpik Sonic-Fusion 2.0 combines the power of a sonic toothbrush with the proven effectiveness of a Waterpik water flosser. Switch from brushing to flossing with ease. From the first brand in its class accepted by the American Dental Association (ADA) for safety and effectiveness, Waterpik Sonic-Fusion 2.0 electric toothbrush and water flosser removes up to 99.9% of plaque and is clinically proven up to 50% more effective than string floss for improving gum health and comes with a three-year warranty.

Dental Hygienist at the Convenience of Your Home
on December 30, 2021
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
The Waterpik - Sonic-Fusion 2.0 is an amazing tool that 100% delivers on the advertised flossing and brushing. I honestly was skeptical about the effectiveness of high pressure water breaking up the tartar from my teeth, because they are so close together.
At first I bought a smaller, handheld Waterpik. It filled my mouth with water too quickly and lacked the pressure to remove the tartar. Using it was a pain because I was spewing out so much water but was not achieving clean teeth.
I decided to try this Waterpik - Sonic-Fusion 2.0 to see if it could clean my teeth / gums. The first-time results blew me away!! Very little water but a lot of (completely adjustable) pressure left no doubt that this is a serious dental tool. One glance at the old food bits in the sink that it removed from my mouth is all it took - WOW!!
The clean feeling similar to a visit to the Dental Hygienist immediately follows the in-home cleaning!
In addition to the amazing flossing, this tool includes a sonic electric toothbrush. I already own and love my Sonicare toothbrush but I found this toothbrush/floss tool to be just as effective; so for the same length of time, two minutes, that I normally brush my teeth, I am getting clean teeth and gums, both brushed and flossed.
I have always had extreme difficulty in flossing because of my teeth spacing. They would break the floss every time and it would get stuck between my teeth. I still cannot believe that this tool is so effective at flossing my teeth!
Caution: When moving the wand from my lower mouth to my upper mouth, the first time I was not careful and it blasted the roof of my mouth. That really hurt! Again, this is such a powerful tool that has the ability to seriously keep your teeth and gums clean, so it would only make sense that pointed at the roof of your mouth, it would not feel so good. The power is completely adjustable, but solving this issue is simply a matter of getting used to the water jet and directing it as you move it from bottom to top.
CONCLUSION: Waterpik - Sonic-Fusion 2.0 earns my highest recommendation, without any hesitation.

Converts iPad Pro 12.9" to Laptop Exquisitely
on December 2, 2021
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
The Brydge - 12.9 MAX+ Wireless Keyboard with Multi-Touch Trackpad for iPad Pro 12.9" converts the iPad Pro to a top performing desktop.
Simply charge the keyboard using a USB-C cable & wall charger, the same as the iPad Pro uses to charge it. Allow about 2.5 hrs to charge it fully.
Press the keyboard power button ON, Press the Bluetooth key to the left of the keyboard power button ON. Now turn on your 12.9" iPad Pro, go to Settings - Bluetooth. Find the Brydge keyboard & select: "pair it" on the iPad. You are connected!
The massive trackpad permits multi-touch movements efficiently. The keyboard is fabricated from aluminum, so it is weighty. It will not tip over like lesser keyboards.
The keyboard features backlit keys with 3 levels of illumination or Off.
The only drawback is the added weight & thickness. The iPad alone weighs about 1.5#. The iPad & keyboard together weigh 3.5# & measure 3/4" thick. If you want a keyboard in order to use your iPad Pro like a MacBook Pro, this is the keyboard for you! If you prefer the light weight, carry around characteristic of the iPad Pro, you should not add this quality keyboard to your collection.
I use both the Apple Smart Folio for lightweight iPad use, and this Brydge keyboard for laptop use. The iPad Pro sticks securely to this keyboard by magnets, just as it also sticks to the Smart Folio. You can interchange the keyboard & the Smart Folio in mere seconds.
This extremely well engineered Brydge Keyboard earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!

25W Powerhouse Provides the Fastest Charge
on December 2, 2021
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
This Anker - PowerPort III 25W PD Fast Wall Charger is the most powerful (25 Watt) compact charger I have ever seen. This mega charger will provide the fastest charge, while maintaining the smallest footprint. It is easily stowed in your pocket or backpack.
The flip-over power prongs eliminate snagging clothes, leaving a smooth surface on all sides. Wall chargers with exposed prongs rip, tear & snag clothes and should always be carried in a separate compartment. This well-designed wall charger (it is Anker, so what else would you expect?) can be thrown next to your most fragile garments with no worries.
Anker protects your purchase with an 18 Month Warranty.
CONCLUSION:
THIS Anker 25 Watt Fast Wall Charger is simply THE BEST OF THE BEST!! It charges my iPhone 13 Pro Max at blazing speed through MagSafe & it earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!!

MagSafe Battery Backup
on December 2, 2021
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
The Anker - MagGo Portable Magnetic 7.5W 5k mAh Battery with Stand for iPhone 12 & 13 MagSafe Compatible Devices is as near a necessity as you will find in keeping your cellphone charged.
Examples: if you forgot to charge your iPhone the night before, the wireless charger didn't line up with the phone, or you are called to a teleconference that goes long. VERY long. So you run dangerously low on juice; this portable battery comes to your rescue!
SPECS:
5,000 mAh capacity
USB-C Input: / Output 5V @ 2.4A
Wireless Output: 5W / 7.5W
Total Output: 12W
Slim 1/2" thick
Lightweight: 0.309#

Rubberized, non slip case
Color: Black
- Includes 2 foot USB-C to USB-C charging cable
- Built-in foldable kick stand. The fold-out stand is very thin, so supporting an iPhone 13 Pro Max is difficult; it bends under the weight.
- This battery will charge the various iPhone models with magnetic charging capability to different amounts, based upon their battery capability. It will top off my iPhone 13 Pro Max, certainly enough to get out of a bind with hours of additional run time. It cannot charge the massive iPhone battery from 0 to full, however.
- Create peace of mind: for whatever reason you find yourself with an undercharged iPhone, simply press the power button to activate the battery, then snap it to the back of your iPhone. You are back in business!
- Protected by Anker 24-Month Warranty
CONCLUSION:
I enthusiastically recommend the Anker MagGo portable battery without reservation!

Reliable Security System; Slow to Respond Cameras
on December 2, 2021
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
The SimpliSafe - Outdoor Camera Home Security System is a well thought-out package designed to fill the needs of most homeowners, whether technically inclined or not. Installation is easy; simply follow the instructions and you will connect the cameras & door switches in no time.
The cameras are designed to use minimal battery power, and they achieve that objective. The included Li-ion camera batteries last 3-6 months after each charge, and the charge only takes 5-6 hours. However, the cameras are the slowest to respond of any wireless security system I have tested. In order to achieve such long battery life, when you select Live View, the SimpliSafe system has to activate the camera, then initiate Live View. This requires 15-20 seconds. I have strong WiFi around my camera installations; if your WiFi is weak at the cameras, expect additional delay.
The SimpliSafe system is a time tested, rugged system. If you choose to have it professionally monitored, it MUST be monitored exclusively by SimpliSafe. Be aware that monitoring which allows you to check security videos in the app costs $25 / month; pay less ($15 / Month) to get very basic monitoring without continuous monitoring ability; you will most likely select the $25 / month plan to monitor your home properly. This fact is not made clear in their advertising.
CONCLUSION:
This package is the most economical way to purchase multiple Simple-Safe cameras, the Hub & door sensors. The equipment is quality built; the cameras are water proof. Installation is the easiest of any system I have tested, However, the slow response to detect & send a motion alert render the cameras virtually useless if you are trying to catch someone stealing a package from your front porch. If that is your objective, I would look elsewhere for a different system & would expect shorter camera battery life that results from prioritizing faster response time over battery life.
If you are looking for protection from a burglar breaking into your home, not a snatch & grab package thief, this is an ideal system & you will be well pleased with the peace of mind that comes from having a quality, time-tested security system.

Beautifully Designed, Silent Mist Generator
on November 15, 2021
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
The Pure Enrichment - MistAir Silver 0.4 Gal. Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier is an outstanding performer. The first thing you notice is the beautiful shape & small 9.5" X 9.5" X 7" footprint. It easily fits in the bathroom sink for an effortless fill. The power supply unplugs from the humidifier, so there are no issues of unplugging it from the wall, or dragging the cord around. Modern touch switch selects Low / High output.
There is a cool blue light, which can be turned off if you prefer. The instructions state that it is ideal for a 250 square foot room. It works great in our bedroom, so it performs as claimed.
There is virtually no sound from this humidifier, whatsoever, this is surprising, especially considering the powerful output! It operates up to 12 hours after a fill on High, or up to 25 Hrs after a fill on Low. When the water level is low, it shuts off automatically.
Waking up in this forced air furnace weather without sinus issues & a dry throat is the benefit that this little beauty brings to your life!
The manufacturer includes a 5 Year Warranty on this product. Without reservation, it earns my highest recommendation!

The Beurer - Infrared Heat Lamp is an amazing medical device that performs even better than advertised! This tool transforms joint pain by flooding the body with soothing infrared heat. It is a highly adjustable machine that allows placement on a desk, on the floor, or a nearby stand or table with the shade adjustable from 0 to 50 degrees.

My wife suffers from a lack of circulation in her legs. This Beurer Infrared Heat Lamp is the perfect tool to address this issue.

1- 100% UV blocker

2- Lightweight construction may be best suited as a travel mirror rather than a permanently located mirror, as it is so light, any bump sends it across the counter.

Attractive Remote with Disappointing Design
on October 31, 2021
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
The Philips 4 Device Remote Control is a Bluetooth Programmable device designed to simplify operation by combining up to 4) remotes.
Infrared works well; however my gear is located in a closet, so I would need an IR repeater to control the gear using this remote. This remote claims to be able to control Apple TV, but perhaps since mine is located in a closet approximately 19 feet from the viewer, the remote could not control the Apple TV.
I love the bright white illuminated buttons! This is the best feature of this remote. Their rubberized feel is ideal.
Button placement is the worst of any remote I own. Compare this to Amazon Fire Stick remote with it's perfectly located buttons, or LG remote that is included with their OLED TV's. Those buttons are similarly located to Samsung TV's; they just make sense. If Philips had designed this remote using LG or Samsung TV remote button placement & used similar positions for Volume & Channel & especially Back button, this remote would be much more usable.
The Find-it feature included with the MyTouch Smart Remote Control app is a good tool to prevent losing this remote.
SUMMARY: While this remote feels good in my hand, I prefer using separate remotes with button placement that makes sense. Not recommended.

Safeguard your home or business with this 4-pack of motion-activated NETGEAR Arlo Smart Home VMS3430-100NAS security cameras, which enables you to capture 720p video footage both during the day and at night.
How do you charge the cameras?
An included magnetic cord with USB is used to charge the battery. Simply place it on the bottom of the Ultra Camera & it sticks & electrically connects to the camera. You have the option of keeping power on the battery during use, if a wall outlet is handy.
Thank you!

I have an Eero wireless router with 3 satellite ports. It works well in my 2 story home. Do the cameras need to be 50 to 100 ft from the base or from the Eero satellite port?
The cameras must directly interact with the Base. The "Smart" features are actually in the Base. I am finding much greater distance than the quoted distance of the Ultra camera rom the Base. The base plugs into the router via Ethernet, so the Wireless Router distance to the camera does not matter.
Thank you!

How long do batteries last on the cameras
The answer totally depends on the amount of motion the camera sees. In a quiet environment, I saw nearly 2 months of battery life. In a high motion environment, I had to charge it about once / week. By motion, I mean a dog or a person alerting the camera to motion.

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 have 5) Arlo Pro 2 Cameras & they work beautifully with the new Smart Base that is included with the new Arlo Ultra. Yours will work beautifully!
However, you cannot pair the new Ultra Camera with the old base you used with your Arlo Pro 2 Cameras. You will no longer need or would want to use that old base. This new one is far superior.

Create custom climate control settings in each room of your home with this pack of three Google Nest temperature sensors. Each sensor communicates directly with your Nest thermostat (not included) to keep your bedroom, living room or nursery at the perfect setting. These sensors work on the wall or on a shelf for convenient setup. With their low-profile design, these Google Nest temperature sensors blend seamlessly with your room's decor.
What is the difference in using these vs. buying a few thermostats for my home? Do I only need one thermostat for my home and then allow these to control the temperature in each zone?
These allow one thermostat to be temperature controlled from any room in the house with this sensor. Plus, the Nest App will show the actual room temp at every room where you placed a sensor.
By contrast, if you bought a few thermostats for your house, and tried to pull the wires from your HVAC to each thermostat, you would still need manual switches to go from 1 to 2 to 3, for example, because only 1 thermostat can connect to 1 HVAC at a time. That would be a nightmare.

These sensors work on the wall or on a shelf for convenient setup. With their low-profile design, these Google Nest temperature sensors blend seamlessly with your room's decor.
The product page shows that a $25 rebate is available to purchasers in Cape Cod. The MA-saves website shows no option to get such a rebate. Which is correct ??
The rebate would be through your utility company. I would recommend calling your local utility company in Cape Cod & ask them to send you the rebate form.

With Fast Fuel, a 5-minute charge gives you 1 hour of playback. Sweat and water resistance provides trusted durability and dual-driver acoustics deliver dynamic sound to power your workout.
Why it is not able to connect to my laptop? It works well with the iphone.
The headphones may be automatically connecting to your iPhone, retaining that connection, and if so, cannot connect to your laptop if it is nearby, as Bluetooth can connect to only one source at a time.
Power your iPhone off as a test, or, if you prefer, simply swipe up the screen from the bottom & select Bluetooth OFF.
Then go to settings on your laptop - Bluetooth - make visible. Press & hold the headphone power button on. Look for the headphones on your laptop Bluetooth list. It should be there now. Click on the WH-CH700N.
Power your iPhone back on, or restore Bluetooth, which you previously turned off.

Can you activate Google Assistant with the mic like you can Siri? I didn't see it listed as a feature.
Great Question!!
You can activate an assistant with the WH-CH700N the same as you can with the iOS Home button.
If you can activate Google Assistant by pressing the Home Button & speaking into the phone, then you can activate Google Assistant with the WH-CH700N.
However, if you press the Home Button & it only brings up Siri, that is the same result to expect from WH-CH700N.
Go to Settings - Accessibility - Home Button - Voice Control. If you can get Google Assistant to open, then the answer to your question is YES.
I tried, but was unable to get the phone to open Google Assistant by voice.
