Wireless Speaker Rocks the House!
on December 5, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought a Definitive Technology W9 to try one out. The sound quality alone impressed me enough, I bought a second one the following week.
The W9 has a lot of punch in the mid bass frequency, due to the dual 5 1/4" drivers. The soft dome tweeters produce clear, natural highs. Dialog is easy to understand because the mids are well balanced.
An unexpected feature is the DTS communication between the W9, the smaller W7, and the W Studio Soundbar. I returned to buy the W Studio Soundbar. The free app allows you to connect all of the W9's, the W7's and the W Studio's you may own, in a whole house music system that is super easy to use. You can connect virtually any online music stream from Sirius XM to Pandora & many others to any W devices, or all W devices at once!
Because I use Apple Airport Express' to convey sound to various rooms throughout the house in an existing network, I plugged an Airport Express into the optical digital input of the W9. The attached photo shows one W9 with the Airport Express sitting on top of the wireless speaker.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the W9! They sound very similar to the discontinued Bowers & Wilkins W7, which I use and also connect via Airport Express because the wireless receiver in the B&W is very weak & constantly drops a signal. I have recently shipped my B&W for service: that cost a lot, and the B&W suffers from software issues, which the Definitive Technology does not. The W9 is the best sounding wireless speaker I have auditioned & purchased to date!

Great Specs; Ultra Slow Performance = Defective?
on October 29, 2016
Posted by: gadgetguy11
The WRT AC3200 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Router has amazing specifications!! Enough to tempt me from my 2) existing Apple Time Capsule 3.0TB Router / Hard Drives. I have over 95) devices connected, so the possibility of boosting speed to an even higher level than at present is appealing.
I connected this router, updated firmware & set it up by the book.
First observation: A lot of great whistles and bells! Every connected device is identified by name, complete with an icon for each device!
Second observation: You can prioritize up to 3) devices, and even hold bandwidth for them!
Third observation: Front panel display is much more intriguing than the 2+ year old Apple TC's. It is very informative.
Fourth observation: USB 2.0 & USB 3.0 jack on the back is super convenient for connecting an external hard drive and a printer.
Fifth observation: Many, many options available on the free Linksys Smart WiFi app! I loaded the app on 2) iPad Pro's & 1) iPhone 6S+. It is a great app, super intuitive & very flexible.
BUT HOW DOES IT PERFORM???
ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!!!!
Apple TC speed via ethernet: 301 Mbps
Apple TC speed via WiFi: 245.99 Mbps at 5' from router
Apple TC speed via WiFi: 245.99 Mbps at 5' from router
WRT AC3200 speed via ethernet: 121.75 Mbps
WRT AC3200 speed via WiFi: 49 Mbps at 5' from router
WRT AC3200 speed via WiFi: 49 Mbps at 5' from router
Worse yet, WRT AC3200 speed dropped to 11 Mbps before disconnecting most of the 95+ devices!
HOW WAS THE EXPERIENCE, SPECIFICALLY?
9) Big A** Haiku Fans (substitute "ss" for the real name of the high tech fan manufacturer), their related wall switches & Haiku Lights would not connect
4) DropCam (Nest) cameras would not connect
50 feet away, a Speed Test could not get enough signal to run a test!
iDevices all went offline, not enough signal to work.
59) HUE Lighting Bulbs connected to 2) Hue hubs would not operate.
4) WINK Relays went offline, and could not connect.
1) Netatmo Welcome Camera with Facial Recognition could not come online.
2) iRobot 980 Vacuums could not come online.
14) Apple Airport Express units used for sound would not connect.

I called the Technical Support Line at Linksys & was helped by Jack for over an hour. We switched off 2.4, then 5, then restored to factory settings. Jack concluded this is a defective piece. Linksys Customer Service is closed on Saturdays, so I must call Monday morning to arrange for an exchange.
The reason why I use 2) Apple TC3.0 Time Capsules at present is: They are at opposite ends of my 3,500 sq. ft. house. They are ethernet connected; one serves as the router; the other to extend the network. This provides the maximum bars of signal strength throughout the house. The specs of the WRT AC3200 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Router suggest it can easily outperform the older Apple routers in the area of speed. I am concerned that one device positioned at either end of my house - as limited my my ethernet connection & periphery devices - will not provide sufficient signal strength throughout the house.
I am not giving up on this Wireless Router, because it has so much potential! I will attempt to swap it out with a replacement unit, and retest. I will submit an update to my test report at that time.

Best LED Bulb!
on June 24, 2016

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!!

How long should the motor last? After cleaning my bottom row, the motor loses power. ♿
If you were having what sounds like the motor losing power after just cleaning the bottom row, I would take it back to where you bought it, and ask for a new unit. This motor should last for years, and I certainly do not see any slow down of the motor each time.

When are they going to release a wireless version? I don't like cables. this sucha nueisance can you fix?
Like you, I preferred the battery version, so I bought a smaller, less powerful, battery operated Waterpik. If you get the opportunity to read my review, you will see that it was completely ineffective and a waste of time. This tool is so powerful, I cannot see them offering a battery powered version because the additional cost would most likely raise it to another hundred dollars over the existing price. So I’m putting up with the cord in the bathroom because the results are phenomenal.

Do you use tooth paste or gel with the water pink sonic 20?
Personally I use the same toothpaste, Colgate or Crest, that are used with my Sonicare toothbrush.

I always put warm water in the part for flossing but the water feels very cold when it goes into my mouth. Does anyone else have that problem?
I noticed the same thing, but since I’ve only owned mine for a week, I am playing with the water temperature. Right now I am using nearly hot water and it does feel better when it first goes in your mouth. I do not think it’s a problem. I actually suspect that the water pic holds a certain amount of water in the pump that naturally would be room temperature, and it takes probably 10 seconds for the new hotter water that you have added to enter the pump. Notice that the temperature in your mouth feels warmer after about 10 seconds? That is my guess on the reason that we feel the water is cold.
One thing I will try is to run the floss 5 to 10 seconds in the sink before putting it in a mouth to see if that warms the water about letting the warmer water fill up the pump.

Does it record movement
Yes, BUT - the cameras respond VERY SLOWLY. In a high performing WiFi area, my cameras take 15 - 20 seconds to respond to movement on a good day. Read my review for detailed reason for this. What you get in return for such slow responding cameras is very long 3-6 month battery life between charges. If you hope to catch a package thief, you will be disappointed. The camera will wake up after the thief has departed. If you hope to catch a thief breaking into your house, this is the ideal system.

I already have a full simplisafe system. Can I purchase this set for the additional parts?
Most likely, you cannot. I have a SimpliSafe system from about 3 years ago. I cannot merge the 2) systems. I can use the same door stitches, but I cannot add the cameras to my old SimpliSafe system.

Do you have tonoay for monthly monitoring
No, but all you get without paying for monitoring is real time viewing without the ability to capture or save video. Please read my review carefully, as I point out that you need the $25 / Month monitoring plan to capture continuous video from the app. This fact is not advertised clearly.
