LED Tactical Powerful Flashlight by Relybo

 

The LED flashlight is great. It is well built, will take a beating, and will keep working. It couldn’t be any easier to use and with the adjustable light, you can see everything you need to see either close or far away. The rechargeable 18650 mAh battery does take some time to fully charge, but if you are like me, I have multiple ones already charged and these last forever or it comes with an adapter that will hold 3 AAA batteries to use this if needed. It will only last for about 4 hours of continuous use, but I never use a flashlight for that long anyway. Love that it comes with a storage/carrying case and with all the extras. You can change this about anyplace you need to know. I do wish they would switch to a USB-C charging port, but the micro USB does work and I am sure you have many of those cables lying around you can use if needed?

Victure AC920 4K 60FPS Touch Screen Action Camera with 8X Zoom

 

First off, The AC920 action camera needs to use a U3 high-speed micro SD card (64-128GB) and the SD card is not included, and you must buy one. The lower cards are not fast enough to keep up and give you a great video at 4k @60 fps. Second, format the SD card inside the camera itself before using it. These two things will save you later.

 This camera does come with an external microphone which gives you better audio than just using the built-in microphone, but neither helps with having the waterproof case on. The best you can hope for there is low muffled audio like all action cameras have. This also comes with a remote that can activate the video and photos while you are away from the camera if needed. It also comes with all the standard features of today’s action cameras, like slow/fast mode, photo burst, time-lapse, loop recording, etc.., but this one also has 8x zoom that really works well if needed.

 With the waterproof case on, this is rated up to 130 feet in depth which is way deeper than most people will go, but you have the option if you need it. The touch screen works great and is easy to use, follow, see, and change the menu setting when needed. You can also review your video and photos on it but they look much better on a bigger screen.

 The video and photos on this are great at any resolution but at 4k, are excellent. I have not seen any lag or jerking in the video and the stabilization in the camera seems to help the shake, jello, and blur as well. I normally just shoot in 1080p @ 120fps because I get small file sizes and can record more longer that way and is just easier to work with post-processing my videos.

 With two 1350mAh batteries with each lasting about an hour, you do get a lot of videos time out of this and you can charge them on the go using a battery back if needed and this comes with a lot of camera accessories (clips and mounts) that help get you started or everything works with any other accessories you may already have from other cameras.

 This has become my new go-to action camera using it for birthday parties to my YouTube videos. Just a great overall easy camera to use that takes great videos when I need it.

Sound Bar for TV/PC Audio Soundbar with Built-in Subwoofer 16.9 Inch Portable Surround Sound System Home Theater Bluetooth 5.0 Wired & Wireless 2 X 10W 2.0 CH Outdoor Stereo Speaker for Phones/Tablets by Youxin

 

This is perfect for replacing my 25-year old PC speakers. This fits perfectly in front and below my computer monitor. This looks and feels well-built and has some weight that makes it feel like I actually bought something. It was very easy to hook up and get running as it knows what is plugged in and how it is connected, so it just plays right to start with.

 It does have a 2200mAh rechargeable battery in it that takes about 3 hours to charge (2 with a 65w charger) and lasts about 6 hours depending on how you keep the volume. So about 4.5 hours may be on medium to medium high volume running on the battery or you can plug it in like I do, and it will never run out of power.

 The remote works and comes in handy but some of the buttons do only work if you are in TF mode and playing music from an SD card. The 3 different modes help to depend on what you are playing and the sound you are looking for as it does change the equalizer on this and give you a different sound out of it. You could also use an equalizer app on your device and adjust it that way as well.    

 Overall, for me using this as a PC speaker, it works well for what I use it for. I can also unplug it and take it outside or take it with me if needed. It’s not going to rock a room or house, but it does give you a nice sound that is well worth listening to compared to your phone speaker.

UeeVii Digital Picture Frame 10.1 Inch Digital Picture Frame

 

This is a fun 10-inch picture frame and perfect for grandparents or anyone else that may not get to see all the other people in their lives as often as you would like. Once you add some friends and family to the Frameo app and they do as well, they can send you photos or small videos that just show up on this picture frame (so be careful who you add, lol). My wife gets so excited when she sees a notice on the screen that we got new pictures and can’t wait to see them come up on the screen. It’s like Christmas on those days. The screen quality is excellent, and all the photos and videos look great, well depending on who took them but that isn’t the screens fault.

 With 16 GB of internal storage, this will hold a lot of pictures and I added a 16 GB SD card to it as well for more storage and to allow me to do backups and save the photos so I have them if I need them or if something happens to the frame for some reason. Do NOT unplug this frame or lose power before shutting this down or it can mess up the android system that runs this or any frame like this. I had another one like this one that got unplugged and then wouldn’t start up again and I had to return it and then got this one.

 This touchscreen frame works well and is easy to set up and work with and flips thru all the pictures or videos with sound (I turn the sound off) on it throughout the day and you can schedule the sleep mode at night if you wish so the screen can go black and not display pictures overnight or whenever you decide. You can move and crop the pictures to fit the screen better if you want as well or rotate the screen to display it in portrait or landscape mode. You can even mount this on the wall if you like if the power cord can reach a plug and be plugged in. You can use this without WIFI to just display pictures from the SD card, but then no one would be able to send you pictures and add to them that way.

Aioze G25 Invisible Hearing Aids for Seniors Rechargeable with Noise Cancelling

 

Bought these for my 85-year old father-in-law who has been complaining when we go out to eat that he isn’t involved in any of the conversations because he just can’t hear anyone anymore. When these first arrived, I charged them, does take a couple of hours to fully charge them, but will last for about 10 days of using them for about 8 hours a day. I tried these out before giving them to my father-in-law and was surprised how well they worked. I thought about keeping them for myself so I can lower the volume on my TV and get the wife to stop telling me to turn it down.     

 The buttons on the side of these are easy to feel and use and it does help to flip thru the different modes when you are in different environments to see which one works best for that situation. Depending on your ear size, I can see the ear the piece could possibly be a little big or long for some people and I am not sure can be adjusted with the rest of it that hooks over the top of the ear, but I am guessing should work for most people?

 Now, next time we are out to dinner with my father-in-law, we will see if he talks more or turns the hearing aids off, so he doesn’t have to listen to us anymore? LOL

Meterk 20v Electric Cordless Leaf Blower

 

I am tired of mixing gas and oil and trying to keep my gas blower running. I am tired of having to tug and pull an extension cord around my yard, so I finally am trying a battery-powered blower to do my light daily chores and so far, I like it. This is lightweight being under 4-pounds but blows hard enough I have no problems doing leaves with it. I mainly bought this for the driveway and deck to help keep it clear of leaves and debris and I couldn’t be happier. The storage bag is great and holds everything until I need it again. I plug this in while I cut the grass and it is charged and ready to go when I and done and blows everything I need to blow, way before the batter starts to die. Just remember, these types of batteries don’t like to be plugged in 24/7 and to only plug it in until charged and then unplug it until next time or the battery capacity does start to diminish and starts dying sooner and not holding a charge. This will not replace my gas or plugged in leaf blower when I need to do my acre of land, but it has its place for smaller, lighter jobs that I have.

Voger 360°View WiFi Home Security Camera

 

This camera has all the standard functions that all most all security cameras come with nowadays, but this one can pan almost 360 degrees around, tilt up and down 110 degrees, and zoom if you need to get a closer look. This also requires an SD card if you want to record any video and you must supply that. It will hold up to a 64GB card and I would get a class 10 just so it is fast enough to record the full HD video when you need it. You could just use this to view this camera on screen, but that would defeat the purpose of a security camera.

 This is easy to install and setup using either the TuyaSmart app or the Smart Life app that I already use for other cameras. Just hit the add camera button in the app, scan the barcode and the camera gets added to the app and you are up and running. Once added, you can go into the settings and change things like date/time, motion detection, and notifications.

 Then you can view what the camera sees remotely from anywhere in the world and get notifications when motion is detected. You can also turn on that the camera will follow the motion when it sees it. That is cool but if the sensitivity is set too high, you could be following a leaf or something blowing down the street, and then your camera is pointing in the wrong spot most likely.  

 Overall, a very nice camera with a great video day or night that you can move it needed. The movement is a little jerky at times depending on how you move it, but it does move, and work as-is.
