EC Technology iPad Keyboard Case for iPad 2018 6th Generation - iPad Air/iPad 2017 (5th Gen) - iPad Pro 9.7 - iPad Air 2 & 1 Ultra Slim 7 Color Backlit Portable Wireless BT iPad Case Keyboard with Pencil Holder

Got the new 2018 iPad for my birthday and didn’t like the case that I got with it as it was just a plain case that you could spin the iPad in if needed and it just seemed pretty flimsy so I did some research and found this iPad keyboard case from EC Technology and couldn’t be any happier.

It’s a breeze to install the iPad in it and connect to the Bluetooth keyboard (press the Function key + the C key on the keyboard to make the keyboard Bluetooth searchable for 3 minutes for the iPad to find it and select the “ECBK31” device in the Bluetooth settings on the iPad and pair to it when asked) that you are up and running in less than a minute. Once connected I can type away without any problems or lag and all the buttons, functions and features all work flawlessly. You don’t realize how much a keyboard for an iPad makes things so much better. This case also has space/holder for a pencil or Stylus Pen if you use or have one as well.

There are four LED lights on it that indicate the battery level, cap lock, Bluetooth and WIFI status so you always know where you stand on everything with just a glance. There is also a magnetic closure flap that folds over to keep the case closed as well as put the iPad to sleep or wake it up. If that isn’t enough, you can also adjust the keyboard backlight with three levels of brightness and choose between seven different colors. 

 
It does take about 2 hours to fully charge this keyboard and with the backlight on, will last about 5 hours of continuous use or around 100 hours if you turn the backlight off when using the keyboard. Just remember to turn the keyboard off when not in use to save the battery even more. 

Overall, a very nice keyboard case that protects the whole iPad and does what I bought it for. Worth every penny and then some.

Emarth High Power 10-30X50 Zoom Monocular

These monoculars have gotten way better than an older one I have. The construction and materials on this are great. This thing is Nitrogen filled and is water, dust and fog proof. With being IPX7 rated, you can take it in the water with you and it will not only be air and water tight but will float as well.

Love that you can zoom and have multiple choices between 10x zoom to 30x zoom with just a turn of the eyepiece.  The 50mm lens on this also gives you a wide view and a great image using the BAK4 Porro Prism and they give you lens caps to protect both.

This is a little on the big size and weighs a little more than other but it also comes with a 1/4" tripod thread hole on the bottom of the monocular, so you can also use a tripod or monopod if needed. I would actually recommend one if using this for a spotting scope for target practice on the range or where you need it more stationary for a better stable view.

I have an eagles nest I like to stop by and see if they are home and in the nest or if they have given birth at that time of year and this makes it really easy to just pull up and look and check without even getting out of the car.

Overall, love this monocular from Emarth. This is made and built just like there bigger spotting scopes and I love those as well.

AIOZX 8 in 1 Airpods Accessories Set

I bought my children the Airpods for Christmas and they didn’t come with anything but the USB charging cable and case, so when I saw this 8 in 1 accessory set from AIOZX, I jumped on it and bought these to go with the Airpods.

If you have tried the Airpods, they are nice, but these accessories make them better. The silicone case cover fits like a glove and helps protect the case and makes it so much easier to hold on to and handle, the ear hooks help keep them in your ear (yes, they fall out all the time), the anti-lost strap will stop you from losing one of them depending on what you may be doing (don’t think you won’t sometime) and the cleaning brush, well that is just a nice to have and useful when needed. Then you can wrap all that up and put everything in its own carrying case to store or carry all this in or use the carabiner to attach the case to anything you need to carry it around with and never lose it.

For the price, this 8 in 1 set works well, is made with quality material, is well built and just makes my gifts even better. Well worth the money for what you get.

TAOPE Ant+ Bluetooth Bike Speed Cadence Sensor

This bike speed & cadence sensor from Taope is pretty small and easy to install and setup. You do need to be a little careful not to break off the tabs on the sides of the device that you use to attach the rubber band to secure it to your bike. So don’t over stretch it and try and put it on something too big around.

Once installed on your bike, you can connect to about any Bluetooth device, ANT+ device or both at the same time. So this will connect and can be used in about all the riding and excise apps that you may have that track and use this kind of data.

To track your speed, you attach the curved rubber mat to the sensor and then attach the sensor to the axle using the rubber bands to one of wheels that will be moving (or the only one you have for a stationary bike) and to track your cadence you attach the flat rubber mat to the sensor and then attach the sensor to the pedal arm on your bike using the rubber bands.

To switch the mode between these two modes, you have to take the battery out and then put it back in. This will change the mode and the LED light on the sensor will change between blue (cadence mode) and red (speed mode). I do wish there was a software or button on this in order to do this, but it is what it is and not really that big a deal to have to do but I did drop it one star for this.

Overall, this is a very nice sensor and does just as well as the more expensive ones do and well worth the money.

Luowice Wireless Security Camera Outdoor 1080P WiFi IP Camera 180 Degree Fisheye Panoramic Surveillance Video CCTV Camera Night Vision 100ft Waterproof

I have multiple cameras setup inside and outside at my house and this camera by Luowice, is one of my best ones. The picture and video on this is 1080P with very crisp colors and clear video during the daytime and the infrared night vision is very nice and I have no problem seeing anything at night as well.

This couldn’t be any easier to setup and use after installing the CamHi app on my phone. Once you install this camera and power it up, the app finds it and allows you to set up your WIFI on it and you are up and running. You could also plug it in using an Ethernet cord if you wish, but I have had no problems with the WIFI and this dropping or lagging.

One thing to think about is this camera software when using the app doesn’t have some of the features others may have. One of those features is the ability to flip the image on the screen, so you need to make sure you install this right side up or your view will be upside down or sideways. The way I needed this installed, mine was upside down, so I had to swap it out with another camera that I could flip the view. Even now I see the view is more up and down and not sideways in the app and I need to move and adjust it again to get it right. Update: I found if you connect to the camera using the web browser, you have all those options and settings and you can do more than thru the app.

The hands free pan to left and right works very well and comes in handy, but as you can see in my video, mine goes up and down and not left to right until I move and adjust the camera again. Not that big a deal but would be nice to know that up front or be able to correct that thru the software or the app. Thus the 4 stars instead of 5. Update: After finding the settings in the web browser, I changed this to a 5 star rating as it does everything I hoped for now and looks great. The video is straight now and pan left to right works perfect now.

Overall, a very nice bullet camera that does what I need it to do. Well worth the money.

Drones for Beginners and Kids – Long Flight Time Bright LED RC Drone Quadcopter Gifts for Boys or Girls, Indoor Helicopter Light Up Toys by Super Joy

Finally, someone made a drone that has a bigger battery and that gives you more than 8 minutes of flight time. This drone from Super Joy comes with a 2000 mAh battery that actually gets about 28 minutes of flight time but does take about 90 minutes to fully charge the battery. That is awesome but now makes me wonder how long will these brushed motors last without being cooled down after 10 minutes of flight time like most drones this size. Time will tell I guess.

This has your standard features like headless mode, flips, one button return to home and 3-speed modes like most toy grade drones these days and they all worked fine when tested.

This drone doesn’t come with a camera, but as a beginner drone, you should be learning to fly and not take videos and pictures, plus with 28 minutes of flight time, you should be enjoying the flying and fun you can have with this drone.

This is a little on the smaller side and works best in little to no wind or flying inside with the winter months coming now as it does get pushed around a little with a moderate wind gust.

The LED lights on the legs and the one headlight on the front of this are very bright and make this easy to see when it’s dark outside and to keep orientation on what is the front and back so you know which way you are flying. The range on this is ok at about 150-200 feet and if you get that far it does start to get harder to see anyway.

Overall, a very fun and smooth flying drone to have and fly. Is actually pretty easy to fly and learn for a beginner in the lowest speed mode or has a little zip for the more experienced in the highest speed mode.

APEMAN Trawo Action Camera 4K WiFi Ultra HD 20MP Underwater Waterproof 40M Camcorder with 170 Degree Ultra-Wide Angle Panasonic Sensor EIS Stabilization Dual 1350 mAh Batteries

I have multiple action cameras that I have bought since these have come out over the last two years and this has to be the best one I have gotten so far. With time, has come better specs and this camera has them with the 20MP photos and the 4K video that you can get from the lens, sensor and EIS stabilization this uses.  

It has all the normal features most of these cameras come with (like slow motion & time lapse) and they all work well so far. There is no remote to control this camera from a distance so you have to use the Yutupro app to connect and control this using WIFI from your phone and that works just as good up to a distance but don’t get too far away or the WIFI will drop and not work.

This does come with two 1350 mAh batteries and they get about an hour and a half depending on if you are using the WIFI or other features. Turning them off will get you closer to two hours of recording for each battery. The batteries do take a couple of hours to fully charge them and they must be charged inside the camera one at a time unless you buy the dual battery charger.

This will hold up to a 128 GB card (not included) and may be needed if you always record in 4K, as 4k do create a pretty big file. I always record in 1080 @ 60fps because not much can play 4k yet, it is a smaller file and easier to transfer and process and I can get more frames per second and I think it makes a better and smoother video.

Amconsure Flickering LED Tea light Candles, Battery Operated Flameless Candles, Dripping Wax LED Tea Lights Decorative for Party/Wedding / Votive Holders, Amber Yellow, Pack of 24

What’s not to like? These flickering tea light candles that look like the wax is dripping down the side of them by Amconsure are great and look pretty real from a distance. These 24 candles come with a battery installed and they give you 25 extra batteries to use when the original ones stop working. I did have two that the original batteries were dead on when received, but with all the extra batteries, no big deal.

I bought these to be used in the centerpieces at my son’s wedding reception and for the price and what I got, well worth it. I only need these to work for about 6 hours, so the 60+ hours they claim is just a bonus in my book.

They look like white short tea light candles but give off that yellow amber glow like a real candle does normally. That along with a natural flicker looks real to me when the lights are turned down and you can really see these glow.
