The Baby Monitor That YOUR Baby Deserves!
on October 29, 2018
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
It comes as no surprise that when I evaluated Baby Monitors, the one by Panasonic tested far superior to the 2nd place finisher. Panasonic has been associated with manufacturing the BEST electronic products for decades+ & this is just another example of excellence.
The motion & sound alerts are awesome! You can choose LED or sound or both types of alert. The monitor can pair up with 3) cameras, providing safety with separate alerts for babies in up to 3) rooms.
The color monitor produces crisp, sharp images, as you would expect from Panasonic.
The lullaby & white noise features add to the versatility & make this one device even more useful. I love the "auto lullaby" feature, where sound will actually trigger the camera to play a lullaby!
The timer option on the monitor further adds convenience.
This Baby Monitor even tracks & alerts you to temperature changes in the baby's room!
Pan, Tilt & Zoom features work as expected. You are in control of the image.
CONCLUSION: This Panasonic Baby Monitor earns 1st Place, Hands Down & is the BEST of the BEST of any I have tested to date. It earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.

Boost Office Productivity with Stream Deck Mini!
on October 29, 2018
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
With 6 configurable one-touch control LCD keys, the Stream Deck Mini adds convenience & power to the desktop. Although it is designed for streamers to add one touch convenience, I find it useful for daily business computer use in my office.
The weighted base keeps it in place & the slope of the top enables effective viewing of the buttons. This is a high quality accessory & is at home on any Mac or PC.
I love how effortlessly (copy / paste) you can install specific icons to each button, move them around and change them at any time.
The smaller size of the Mini is absolutely perfect for standard office desks. The full size Stream Deck requires too much desk space, and 6) programmable buttons is more than adequate to justify this productivity boosting dynamo!
The USB cord was a little short to route it behind my monitor, where the cord would not show, so I simply added a USB extension cable - problem solved.
CONCLUSION: The Stream Deck Mini requires less real estate on your desk than the full sized model & costs less. The 6-button configurable one touch control boosts productivity in any work environment. It earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION & has become the most frequently used accessory (I use it many times / day) in my office.

Logitech G PRO Wireless Optical Gaming Mouse with RGB Lighting

is designed & built to DESTROY the competition, and it CRUSHES all competitors!
I use the G903 on a daily basis. The new PRO feels right at home with Lightspeed 1MS Report Rate & sits on either of my 2) Powerplay energized pads to maintain charge all of the time.
Response time is set by one flush mounted button on the bottom of the mouse.
LED Lighting is the same as G903 (you will not be disappointed).
Side buttons are removable & configurable.
Software is as easy as a free download to personalize control.
Amazingly, there is zero acceleration, smoothing or filtering across the entire DPI range. This means you have not only the fastest speed, but also the most accurate positioning at your hand.
SUMMARY: Look no further than the G PRO Wireless Optical Gaming Mouse to elevate your winning! This mouse easily earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!

A Portable Bluetooth Speaker that truly ROCKS!
on September 24, 2018
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
The LG PK7 Portable Bluetooth Speaker is a large, fairly heavy performer that seriously delivers clear audio at any volume without audible distortion!
I enjoy rocking out to music where bass is not hidden, or does not get lost. This speaker is truly at the head of the class in delivering both powerful bass, and ultra clear high frequencies, which add to the clarity of the music. Meridian Audio provides an adjustable equalization, where you can boost the bass, add clarity, do both or neither. The difference is stunning; I prefer Clarity & Bass Boost always ON.
With up to 22 hours playback, the massive battery, which powers 40 watts of powerful audio, justifies the weight.
IPX5 Water Resistance Rating offers compatibility around the pool with no worries.
The LED Mood Lighting is not overdone or obnoxious. It is actually a very neat addition.
CONCLUSION: The LG PK7 Portable Bluetooth Speaker holds the highly coveted position of the BEST of the BEST Bluetooth speakers. It earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.

Strong backup with many options
on September 17, 2018
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
APC has earned the coveted leader in the market position in Uninterruptible Power Supplies for computer systems. The Back-UPS Pro 1350 is a strong performer toward the high end of the APC product line.
It features 6 outlets protected from surges and power outages, and 4 outlets offering just surge protection. It also has 2) USB jacks to protect USB from surges.
The display provides voltage, current, wattage, remaining time and much more.
The display times out but can be left on by pressing a button and holding it. Unfortunately the display produces an annoying high pitched whine, an oscillating sound, so I chose to leave the display off.
SUMMARY: This is a robust, excellent performer and provides excellent protection against power surges. Highly recommended.

Philips HUE Goes Outdoors!
on July 24, 2018
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
I am an early adopter of Philips HUE Smart Bulbs. This new outdoor spot light base kit, Lily, provides the identical millions of color, same as the indoor HUE Bulbs.
The vast majority of users will already own indoor HUE Bulbs, and consequently own a HUE Hub. A Hub is required, but is not included.
Build quality is superb; metal fixtures with optional metal stakes if mounting stakes are desired. Completely weatherproof, these are truly amazing lights!
The cords are durable and are very long. The brightness of the Bulbs is fantastic! The bulbs are rated at 25,000 hours, which is incredible. The individual bulbs cannot be changed, however. You simply replace the unit. I have yet to have the first HUE Bulb fail, and I have over 100 bulbs in daily use through 2) Hubs.
CONCLUSION: This is the perfect product for the many Philips HUE customers. Beautify your landscape and stand out with 16 million colors that blend with your indoor HUE. They use the same voice control, timers and scenes as all other HUE. Lily earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!

Lightning to 3.5MM Audio Connector - Simple
on July 12, 2018
Posted by: gadgetguy11
from Lexington, KY
This Belkin cable is well made & has the feel & thickness of Apple cables. The function of this cable is to connect the iPhone (which no longer has a 3.5mm jack) directly to a speaker or to a vehicle sound system.
Audio quality is not limited by this cable, so you can expect a wider audio frequency response & improved dynamic range, than when compared with wireless Bluetooth connection.
This cable solves a connection issue that until now required a wireless connection. This Belkin cable earned a high recommendation if you need to connect your phone to a speaker or to a vehicle sound system.

Make your home an internet haven with this versatile Linksys Velop wireless Wi-Fi system. Three identical tri-band dual-stream AC2200 routers, each equipped with a quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 processor, deliver lightning-fast internet. Equipped with Bluetooth 4.0/LE, this Linksys Velop wireless Wi-Fi system is simple to set up and pairs easily with computers, tablets and smart devices.
I don't think the following statement is correct "Each access point provides a maximum data transfer speed of up to 6600 Mbps" I think collectively all the routers/access points have that much throughput but not an individual one.
You are exactly correct. 6600 Mbps is a misrepresentation by 3 X 2200 Mbps. I personally saw a max speed of 348Mbps. Please read my review; this router is incompatible with select devices, including BAS Fans & Lights, as well as DropCam Pro (Nest Cam).

This AudioQuest HDMI90W wide HDMI adapter combines a right-angle design with a short body for a space-saving solution to HDMI connectivity in your system.
what is the difference between the 'narrow' and 'wide' versions of the 90 HDMI adapter?
Use wide to redirect a cable from an LG or SONY TV - note whether the narrow or wide side is in the bend. If you pick narrow in that case, it will direct your cable the wrong way.
I use 2 at a time X 3 cables to redirect cable180 degrees.

Control most electric devices through voice activation, or schedule a ride with Uber and order a pizza. The Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device turns any home into a smart home with the Alexa app on a smartphone or tablet.
Do I need to purchase the extra warranty?
You do not have to buy an extra warranty, but I chose to, because the cost was so low, & these devices are used frequently. The warranty is a bargain.
