Tenergy 900W/1500W PTC Ceramic Heater w/ Auto Shut Off, Portable Space Heaters with Adjustable Thermostat for Home Bedroom, Personal Desk Heaters for Office Review

The Tenergy is pretty impressive for such a small ceramic heater. Like all ceramic heaters, there isn’t any wait once turned on for heat to start coming out of this thing. The base of this is made from a hard plastic that makes it light and very portable and a metal grill over the heating elements.

The controls are all on one side and are easy to see, use and very simplistic and self-explaining. You have the thermostat knob and the fan only, low (900w) or high (1500w) heat knob and that’s it.

The face of this does only tilt up 15 degrees, so the heat doesn’t hit the top of the base that it is housed in and this works unless you place this on the ground and want the heat to hit you in the face, then it doesn’t tilt up enough unless you move it further away from you. Put it on a table next to you and this isn’t an issue at all.

The thermostat on this works very well and will turn off/on the heater to maintain the room temperature where set and there is a safety feature that will shut off the heater if it gets too hot during use. I know it is room dependent, but I do wish they had temperature readings on the thermostat knob so I had an idea of the temperature I might get when set there instead of guessing and adjusting until I find what I like. It will shut off when you pass the current temperature of the room, so you can go up or down from there to set your desired temperature.

For such a small heater (10.6wx9.8hx5.3d), this does really put out a good deal of heat in an average size room. I tested this in my living room that is 15dx23wx9h and I actually had to turn the thermostat down when it started to get too hot in the room. It’s not quit winter here yet, but still pretty impressive for this room size.

Overall, a great ceramic heater that is very portable, easy to use and operate and should work anywhere you may need it to. With the build quality of this and the simple knobs, this should last a long time and a few winters.

Tenergy T20 Bluetooth Headphones

The Tenergy Bluetooth 4.1 Headphones come in a very nice and professional looking box with a magnetic flip top with a picture of the headphones, armband and specs on the headphones on the front and back of the box. In the box are the headphones in a carrying case, Mini USB charging cord, extra ear buds and instructions.

After getting these out of the box, I wasn’t disappointed. These are made with a pretty solid rubberized plastic body and shouldn’t break with normal wear and tear and shouldn’t have a problem with sweat while you are working out. This also comes with a hard case to carry these around with, which is a great feature because I hate having to find a place to store the extra ear buds and USB cord, let alone the headphones.

I was excited to try these out and they turned on and worked right out the box without charging them. Used them for about an hour or so and then it took about an hour and a half to charge them the first time. The charging cord (mini) is really short, so I used my own. There is a LED light on the side of the right ear piece that turns red during charging and blue when completed. This light also flashes blue/red when in pairing mode. 

There are two buttons on the top of the right ear piece. The volume up (next track) and the volume down (last track). The on/off button is on the side and is a bright red bar that is easy to find and push. The mini charging port is on the side of this ear piece as well.

These headphones have voice, so they talk to you and tell you when they are powered on/off and when paired. This didn’t take long to pair with my phone and I didn’t have to scan for it multiple times before it showed on my phone to pair with it. Once paired, it connects automatically now when I turn them on. Couldn’t be any easier.

The ear pieces are surprising nice and fit in my ear really well and are comfortable to wear for hours while I am at work. Lasted my full 8 hours at work without recharging them. There are extra ear pieces if you need to find the right size for you. The wings that are built into these, go around your ears to help hold them on. These are bendable and fit around your ears pretty easily compared to alot that are hard and can’t be moved.  

I had no problem with the Bluetooth dropping or getting choppy when wearing these when I got ten to fifteen feet away from my phone and the sound, even at full volume, sound great. The volume at max is loud enough I did have to turn it down a little not to hurt my ears.

I have an equalizer app on my phone that I can tweak the sound with, but the bass and overall sound on these are superb out of the box, I didn’t need to do that. I have these for listening to music, but the wife did call me one time while I had these in and I had no problem hearing her or her hearing me. There is a built-in mic on these. These are noise cancelling but are not a high-end headphone, so they are ok but they do allow some noise leakage at lower volumes.

The armband is a nice touch and really does help when working out or running. It’s your typical phone armband and comes with a strap on the back to wrap it around and tighten on your arm. It feels pretty comfortable and stayed in place when I used it. The clear front makes it easy to see and use your phone when needed.

These are a really nice somewhat cheap sports earphones and would be great for anyone looking for a Bluetooth headset. Pricing and technology has gotten so much better now.
