My Product Reviews and Thoughts

Tuesday, December 1, 2020

I like these. They are small enough that unless you are on the side of me looking inside my ear, you don’t see them. The top end that is out, it is flesh color and blends in well. These do take a little over an hour to charge and since there are two and you have to charge them separately (not sure why you don’t get two chargers or one charger that does both at the same time) it’s more like two and a half hours total. They do last about 5 days if you use them for about 8 hours a day. But more realistically, you need to charge them about ever other day.

Couple of things on these. One, you need to find the right dome that fits your ear right so they fit right tight in the ear to stop any whistling and to help make the noise cancelling work better and two, you may need to use the adjusting tool to adjust the amplifiers. Once you do these two things if needed, these work well and really boost any sound around you and help you hear better.

HOKEKI Solar Powered LED Outside Spotlights

Bought these to highlight and display a couple of trees in my front yard, so I needed something that was solar since there are no power outlets close to these trees. I placed these lights on the post and inserted them into the ground, but you can also mount this on a wall or other surface if you want to use them more as a floodlight for security or lighting and area. You can also set these to be on high or low when they shine. Depending on how much sun it gets, they last all most all night most of the time, so make sure you have the solar panel facing to where it gets the most sun for the longest amount of time that it can. Even on cloudy days, it charges, just doesn’t last as long. Nice and bright lights that shine about 10-15 feet out.

Yecaye 4 Packs Desk Cable Management J Channel Tray

I know this is for a computer desk or center, but I spent a lot of money on a new TV and TV stand and can’t stand all the cables and cords showing behind it, so I bought this. These are nice, heavy-duty, and work as described. I did follow directions and used 3 pieces of tape on each channel and I did wait for about 24 hours before running the cable and cords thru the tracks. I have to say, it looks 100% better than it did before. It couldn’t have been much easier to set up and install and get the cables and cords in the tracks. One thing, if you do need to trim these to a smaller size, you will need a saw to cut these because of the thickness and odd shape.

Vipoon Digital Instant Read Meat Thermometer

I really like this thermometer and all the extras this one has compared to my old broken one. The magnet on the back is perfect and makes it easy to store on the side of my refrigerator or hang on the side of the grill on a hook. I like that I can program it for the meat type I am cooking and the doneness (inside temperature) I want or can just use it as it and just take a temperature. The screen is big and easy to read and with the color-coding, is very easy to tell where you are in cooking it.

The probe folds in and out with little effort and the whole thing turns off when you close it or it cools down to 45 degrees. If that isn’t enough for you, it has voice prompts and alarms to tell where it is and if it’s reached your preset temperature or not. This also reads the temperature very fast and will display it in a couple of seconds. My last one would slowly just show the temperature going up about 1 degree at a time after the initial showing of the degrees. So, no more burning your hands while waiting for it to show you the true temperature. I lobe a good medium steak, and this makes that so easy to accomplish now.

If you are reading this, then you have neck pain like everyone. Just go ahead and buy this one. It’s easy to charge (about 2 hours) and use and last forever. They recommend you use it for 15 minutes a day, but when my neck hurts, I use it until I feel better. The heat is nice, and you can feel the difference in the modes and intensity. Everyone is different and needs to sit in a different place and way. You will have to move it and play with the settings to find what is best for you, but with the remote that comes with it, changing everything and finding what works is easy to do. The voice prompts work and give you what you need and will tell you when you need to recharge this. It is very lightweight and easy to carry and take with you if you need to as well. I do wish this came with a storage/carrying case for when it’s not in use or I want to take it with me. I don’t want it on my neck all the time. It may feel more like it is shocking you when you turn it up too high, just turn it down until you can feel it, but it doesn’t hurt.

Orfeld 116 Piece Hand Tool Set Kit

I have a garage full of tools but wanted something altogether in a case I could keep inside the house for all those pesky things that pop all the time I need to work on and fix and not have to run outside to my detached garage to get them. This kit has about everything you could need for all the basic stuff that comes up that you must deal with.

The case and tools are well made and should last for the light use I will need them for. I like how everything has its place in the case and stays in place well but comes out without much effort when needed. The case at 13x10x3 inches fits perfectly on top of my refrigerator and under the cabinet above it and is in easy reach when I need it. Great tool kit to have when I need something.

Victure Floodlight Security 1080p Outdoor Camera

These LED lights are great. They are bright, last forever, and reduce my cost to use them. This floodlight from Victure is no different. It took less than 10 minutes to hook up and replace my old flood light. It works great. Comes on with motion. Records what it sees when it happens and sends me a notification thru the app so I can look and see if it's something I need to deal with or not. This is great while I am at work to see who is pulling in my driveway while I am not home.

Since the SD card (8GB min thru 128GB max) gets put in the camera itself, all the videos get recorded on that, and then I can watch them thru the app when needed. You don’t need to pay for a monthly subscription to use this camera.

Now for the flood light itself. You can also control how it works as well thru the app. You can have it come on only when it sees motion and stay on for a set length of time or you can have it on all the time on a schedule like I do. The camera will still record when it sees motion.

Overall, a great two in one floodlight and camera system that just works and helps protect my home and give me a little more peace of mind.
