Using these on an Xbox Series X for COD. The sound is excellent and the microphone works. I just wish it could be moved
closer to my mouth so I didn’t have to talk too loudly so the other people
could hear me over the game sometimes. The headset is soft and feels great on
my head but is a little snug but not bothersome. It’s always nice to have an
inline controller to mute it or change the volume of the sound as I am playing.
Overall, a decent headset that does what I bought it for.

Didn’t think I
needed a webcam before, but now with doctor visits being done online, I needed
one now. I happen to stumble across this one and figured I needed both a
webcam and microphone, anyway, get this with both plus a ring light.
All three work
well on this. The video is clear and crisp, the ring light makes you stand out and be seen even in a dark room, and the microphone makes me sound good with no
lag, muffled sounds, or feedback.
Its also very
easy to set up and start using that even a computer challenged person will have
no issues using this. Just plug it into a USB port on your PC and Windows just
finds it and installs it and you are up and running.
It does have a
clip for a laptop or monitor or it has a mini tripod you can put it on and use
it as a standalone webcam if you like. Love to have options.
The ring light
is touch controlled and has three settings which are cool and very easy to use
and change when and if needed. You can always find the right setting for your
situation.

These are
always fun to play with when you around water and shoot way further than you
would think. They are easy enough to use that my 2-year old grandson has no
problems using them. He loves the little animals on the top of each one of
them. Made from foam, so they float in the water and don’t hurt if you get hit
with one either. They are just over a foot long, so small enough to throw in
the beach bag and take with you.

This was my
next purchase in my plan to move from gas to electric on all my tools now that
I am getting older. Once I couldn’t get my gas blower to start this year, it
was time for the change. Being the same size as my old one at 24-inches but a
little smaller in length with no engine, it fits in my garage a little better.
This is so much easier to set up, get running, and use than a gas one. With no
old gas, oil, spark plug, choke and flooding the engine to worry about.
It does take a couple of hours to charge this massive 80v battery, but it lasts the whole time
it takes me to do my 140-foot driveway that is oversized with room for 4 cars
in front of the garage. Yes, it does need to recharge before I could do my
neighbor's driveways or they borrow it, but mine is done.
I love that all
the controls are on the top panel, easy to see and operate when needed. It is
so easy now to move the chute to the side I need with a push of a button
instead of having to manually crank it. I never used the reverse on my old one
since the control was down below the top panel and it was just as easy to pull
it backward.
I never
realized how nice it is to have an LED light on a snowblower until you have
one. Doing snow before or after work when it isn’t light out, can be a little
challenging at times, but this LED light is bright and does help me see what I
am doing and where I am going.
The wheels
maybe the only thing you need to maintain with keeping enough air pressure in
them, but they work great and go thru the snow with no issues. Make sure you
adjust the height of the plates on the sides of the chute to get it to the right
height before you start using it. Being flat on the ground maybe a little too
low depending on the area you are trying to clear.
So far, I am
not disappointed in this purchase and well worth the money.

I wasn’t sure
if 6000 lumens would be enough to see to the back of my 1-acre yard, I was
wrong. This light is super bright and lights up the backyard with no issue. It
is all plastic, but still has a little weight at a pound and a half with the
10k rechargeable battery in it that can be a power bank to charge your other
devices if needed as well. The sidelight is nice, works well, and would come in
handy if you need it, say off the side of a road if you were broke down or as a
work light to see something you are working on. I do like the mini tripod that
comes with this as well as I can tilt this up, point where I need it, and I don’t
need to hold it.

Nice looking fan that works well and comes with 2 LED light bulbs. One of the easiest to
install light covers I have seen on a ceiling fan. Like most fan installs, it
does take a little bit of prep work to put it all together before installing it but once done, the install takes minutes. I am replacing my old fan that the
chains stopped working so I can’t change the speed or turn the light off
anymore, so it was time. This new fan is quieter than my old fan and puts out
more wind. The chains on it are extra-long as well and very easy to reach and
pull.

This is a great
little fire pit table. The black powder-coated steel looks great with my black
Trex patio furniture and looks like it was made and included in the set. This
looks and feels well-built, is easy to set up, install, and get up and running.
You do need to provide your own propane tank, which is no problem for me with
the extra tanks I have.
There is only
one knob on this is used to control the gas and the height of the flame
that comes out. They also include the lava rocks that get put on top and help
create heat from the flames. There are four rubber feet on the bottom that help
stop this from sliding around my deck and help it stay in place. There are two shelves
that go on each side that can be used to place things on and help you keep you
distance from the fire.
I like this small
round table as it fits between the two chairs I have and doesn’t take a lot of
space up doing it. I have a patio heater, but this is closer to the ground,
heats better and can be used for other things like making smores if needed as
well.

I am all about my
electronics and upgrading to newer devices and I thought I would give this a
try instead of using a wireless mouse while I am working from home.
This is about
the same size as my current metal mouse pad, so that is a plus. My fingers
slide across the touchpad easily, with no issues, and the finger gestures all
work as expected. The mouse pointer on the screen moves with no lag on my
Windows 10 machine and installed with just plugging it into the USB port on my docking
station with no drivers to install.
This does show
up as a touchpad in Windows and has all the settings to go along with it. Almost
the whole touchpad is usable and the rubber feet on the bottom keep it in place
when being used.
Depending on
your setup, the micro USB cable that is included, maybe a little short and you
may need to supply your own. It works fine on my laptop and docking station but
is way too short to use on my desktop underneath my computer center.

My garage got
broken into and all my tools stolen, so I bought this because the drill set was
included, and it has a little of everything to get you started. The drill is
nice as well. It is lightweight, has variable speed, and easy to operate but
has the power I need when using it. It does take around an hour to charge it
and seems to hold a charge well. I don’t use it all the time and it has a
charge weeks later when I need it. I love these cordless tools.

First off, this
is a manual snake and not automated. The crank on the back does not make the coil
wire come in or out or adjust the length of the coil, it only turns it. You
have to pull the coil out with your hands (thus the gloves they give you) until
you feel it hit something and there is some resistance on you pushing it in,
lock it in place and then crank the handle by hand or with a drill, to get the
spring on the end to drill into the clog, so you can pull it out. It is amazing
what this could pull out of your pipes and it will not smell good at all.
It is all
plastic but has some weight and feels like you bought something. Seems to work
easy and fine and does the job. It’s another one of the tools you don’t think
about until you need one. If you have some easy and simple clogs, this could
save you some time and money.

This is
awesome. A 2-in-1 alarm clock and white noise machine. This is my new travel
clock. Small enough to pack, but the clock face is big enough to be easily read
and loud enough to wake me up. The buttons on top are easy enough to find and
push and comes with a lot of options and settings if you want or need them. I
love the fan sound. Helps stop those hotel sounds or the dead quiet in your
room late at night and helps me sleep better. The battery backup is also nice in case the power goes out. I cannot be late for work when out of town.

This is a fun
little printer and fits in your pocket. Easy to find and connect thru Bluetooth
to your phone or tablet. Download the app and just print away. I looked and
replacement paper isn’t expensive, and you don’t need ink, the best of two
worlds. I am kind of impressed with the speed at which this prints. It’s not a
color printer, but everything looks decent. It does take a couple of hours to
fully charge this, but then it is fully portable and lasts a while before
needing to be charged again. It does use a Micro USB charging cable so you can charge
it with a power bank if needed as well.

Nice outdoor
dual plug. It comes with an app to control it or can be controlled thru Alexa
or Google. Its waterproof and can handle all weather conditions. Looks and
feels well built. This plug will also allow you to dim the lights that are
connected to it or have them automatically turn on or off at a set time. This
is fast and easy to install but both plugs are controlled together and not
separately. They do make another plug if you need to control each plug on its
own. This makes controlling my holiday displays so much easier.

This is a nice
door lock and looks and feels well built. I love to have options, so having
four ways to open this if needed is great. It will also allow me to let my adult
children have access to my home when they happen to stop over, and I am not
home.
Whether you
installed a deadbolt before or not, this doesn’t take 10 minutes to install and
get working. Does takes a little bit to enter and save your figure prints and select
a code to use, but once done, this should be good for another year when you may
have to replace the batteries. I have extra CR123A batteries from another
device I had and was wondering what I would use them for, now I know.
Doesn’t matter
That way you open this, it seems fast, fluent, and without lag. Just make sure
your deadbolt was installed with enough room that it locks and unlocks without
much effort. You will wear the batteries down on any smart lock if the motor on
it has to work too hard to lock or unlock the door or it will fail and not
open or close.
I am liking
this so far and I am now looking at getting the smart hub to go with it so I
can control it with Alexa as well.

You must love
anything cordless. I have an impact wrench for my air tank, but having to fill
the tank, plug the hoses and wrench in and drag it out to where I need it is
slow and a pain. I was worried that this wouldn’t have the power to remove the tire
nuts that were put on with an impact wrench at the car dealers, but it had no
problems getting it off and back on.
The 21v battery
has plenty of power and seems to last before needing to recharge it. It can
quickly charge in about an hour, but if you want a full, lasting charge, it will
take 3-4 hours to fully charge the 4000 mAh battery on it. You do have to
remove the battery from the wrench to charge it as the plug port is on the top
part of the battery. Would have been nice to just leave on and charge it?
The sockets and
drill accessories that come with this are made and built well and feel like
they should last. It is a little tricky to get the sockets on with the friction
ring, but they do go on, stay on, and work. It also comes with a metal pin and
rubber O-ring that can be used to help hold the socket on the anvil if needed
as well. It slides through the hole in both and kept in place with the rubber
O-ring. It is not shown in the photos or listed as being in the box, but they
are included.
It does have
three modes for speed (2 forward, 1 reverse) but I think I would just leave it
in the high speed for most of my jobs. It’s just a push of a button to change
the mode if needed, so not that big a deal.
I hope not to
have to use it, but this also comes with a 5-year limited warranty. Not sure
but the limits are, but for 5-years, is great.

This is a
decent power strip with surge protection. None of these surge protectors truly
protect all your equipment from the main strike (you need a whole house surge protector
for that), so I use these more for my small stuff around my tables. To charge
my phones, tablets, and other small stuff like that and to plug my lights in.
My 100-year old house has limited plugs and wasn’t designed for the 21st century and all my electronics, so I have power strips and multiplug wall
adapters everywhere.
I do like the
four USB ports on this, as everything nowadays doesn’t come with a wall adapter.
The layout and design of this were nicely thought out with the extra spacing
between the plugs and works well with any oversize plug or power brick. The six-foot power cord on this has a right-angle plug on the end that helps not block the
other plugin from the wall as well.
I would say the look and feel of this would be
in the middle. I have other ones that look and feel much cheaper than this one,
weigh less, and look like plastic, but I have others that are high-end, cost a lot more that look and feel a lot better. But in the end, if they supply
power without any issue, then they work and do what I bought them for.

I don’t use my
KitchenAid mixer or make pasta all the time, but if I have free time or am just
out of the dry pasta I need for a dish, I pull this out now and it makes
everything so much easier. For a fast turn- around, make a 4-ingredient dough,
put it thru this roller to smooth it out and get the right thickness and cut
into spaghetti or Fettuccine if needed.
It is all metal,
well-built, and installs in seconds. The adjusting knob on the front of it is
easy to pull out, turn, and adjust. I would suggest you start off on 1 or 2 and
then go higher (make the dough thinner) as you do more passes thru this roller
instead of trying to do it all on one pass.
The lid on it
opens and allows you to get inside it and clean it when done. If your dough was
a little too moist when putting it thru the roller/cutter, let it dry in the
machine first a little before trying to clean it, so it brushes out easier. They
do include two cleaning brushes that help with the cleaning as well. Do not
immerse this in water to clean it.
This isn’t too
big 10x7x3 in size and sits in my cabinet without issue until I need it.

Went with the 2.3-inch
numbers to make it easier to see from a distance. This is a good size at about
15 long and 5 inches tall. You can see the numbers from across the room with no
issues. It is built well, bright, and easy to operate with the included remote.
This does need to be plugged into an outlet to get power and you need 2 AAA batteries
for the remote, that is not included.
You can sit
this on a desk, ledge, or shelf but it also comes with mounting hardware if you
want to mount this on a wall. Not that hard either with the wall screws
included.
The remote
allows you to easily program your settings you want and it will remember the
settings when you turn it off, so you don’t have to do it again unless you need
to change what you are doing.
I am using this
for working out for the cycle/rest part of it but leave it on as well to use it
as a clock the rest of the time. It has other functions as well that I
currently don’t use as a stopwatch, up/down count, time intervals, and a one
key Tabata setting and it is nice to have options in case I need them in the
future.
So far it seems
to keep the real-time well and works great for my timing my work outs.

My two-year-old
grandson loves to swing a baseball bat or a golf club, so I bought him this to
give him something he can play and practice with. He is still working on his
timing and hitting the ball when it gets thrown up in the air, but the is
having fun doing it.
Everything is
made of plastic and is light. If you use this as a tee and hit it off the top
or if they hit the tee when swinging and it hits a wall, the red piece that the
ball sits on, will break off, but still works putting the ball on the piece
below it. I know the bat is plastic, but it is still hard and going at a fast
pace.
The bat is nice
and easy to carry and store with the way it telescopes. Everything is small
enough and light enough, my grandson has no problem with moving this and
playing with it on his own.
The three balls
it comes with are plenty, as is gives him enough to try and hit, but not too
many he won’t go pick them all up when he is done.
Money well
spent just to see the smile on his face when he is playing with it.

My old LG monitor
one day just started showing a single vertical blue line just right of center
on it. The monitor still works great but that line sure is annoying and makes
me think that is the edge of the screen all day long as I am on it, so I bought
this one to replace it.
This in a great
full HD 24-inch budget monitor with an HDMI and VGA connection so you have
options when connecting it. It also has a refresh rate as high as 75Hz, but you
do need to change your display settings and pick that if that is what you want
to use. Don’t return this because it defaults to 50 or 60Hz on you.
Videos and
games are smooth and don’t lag at all on 75Hz and the viewing angle is great if
you are off to one side or the other. I love that it has three micro edged bezels
on this. You almost can’t see them when using this and they just blend in with
the screen.
This monitor
does tilt up and down a little but will not rotate in portrait mode if needed. The
on/off and set up buttons are on the bottom right side of the bezel and easy to
find, push, and use when needed.

This is a decent mini projector that with its 4000 lux, is very bright and should work
well in a somewhat bright room if needed. I like how small this one is as it needs
to be hidden when I use it to display my AtmosFX holiday displays or take up
less space when sitting on a table when I want to use it for shows or a movie. I
bought a 100-inch projector screen for the outside and needed something small and portable and this one meets my needs. It will also project to a 100-inch
screen from only 10 feet back as well.
It has multiple
input ports, so you have options when needing to connect a device up to it. They
also throw in an HDMI and AV cable, so you have about everything you could need
to get started right out of the box. Depending on what you are trying to hook up
to this, you may need an adapter to convert it from one input to another.
The speaker is great
and works well, but if you need more or just want it louder, there is a 3.5 mm
audio port on this, so you could connect a Bluetooth speaker or another device up
to it if needed. This also comes with a remote control to operate it and go
thru the menus that come up for the settings. Very easy to set up, use, and
operate.
Overall, The video (@1080p) looks great and the sound is just as good. The menus and operating
are easy to understand and follow and intuitive. Works very well for what I
bought it for.

This is a cool
little device to have if you are traveling and staying at an Airbnb or hotel
with the scary stories of hidden bugs found in these places lately.
Most commercial
hidden devices that are most used fall in the 10 MHz to 8 MHz range and this G4
Pro is looking for anything between 1 MHz and 6.5 GHz, so these are all covered
and will be found if near you. It will not find anything above 6.5 MHz frequency,
but devices like those are very high end and expensive and above most common
user’s budgets.
The best way to
use this is to turn off anything that puts out a frequency that you are aware
of like your cell phone, computer, any loT devices, cameras, etc. before
scanning the room with this. That maybe hard to do in a hotel and you could get
some false positives, say at a wall where there could be a router or someone’s
laptop in the other room next to yours.
The G4 Pro has
a setting to scan for WiFi or Broadband and you should scan for both. Things
like your phone (3G/4G/LTE), GPS tracker sim cards (2G) would use the Broadband
and your router would use the Wifi. These are a good way to test this and make
sure it is working. The signal strength LED lights on the side will help you
narrow it down to where the signal is coming from as the more the lights, the closer you are to it.
The red laser
light on this will help detect and camera lens that maybe hidden. If you make
the room dark and shine this light around, any camera lens will reflect the
light back at you. You would be surprised how much it really stands out to you.
Almost like a sparkle or twinkling star.
This does have
a 300 mAh rechargeable battery in it and with the USB-C charging port on it, takes
about an hour to fast charge it and will last about 25 hours of usage.

This is a sharp
little knife both in looks and blade sharpness. This jet-black knife looks very
cool. It is small, sleek, slim, and fits either on my key chain or in my pocket
with no problems. I always carry a small pocketknife and this one, I don’t even
feel most of the time when reaching in my pocket for something else.
The logos on
the blade and handle, make it look a little bit better and stands out against
the black color of this knife. It does have a thick piece of metal for the
blade locking mechanism and holds the blade in place when open, but is easy
enough to push to the side, when you want to close the blade.
It does have
both a top flipper to open the blade that doubles as a regular flat head
screwdriver if needed, but it is not spring-assisted, and a side thumb flipper.
I usually use a combination of both to open this blade as one by themselves
doesn’t open the blade totally on its own most of the time.
I do really
like this knife and it has become my new daily pocketknife I carry around every
day.
