This is an excellent, full featured watch! The big thing for everyone is battery life. Yes it does as advertised. Most times it is 2 to 3 days between charges. Occasionally (every three weeks or so) there will be a hiccup with one of the apps (unknown which one in my case) that will eat up more battery than expected and it will last 24 to 30 hours until I have to charge. A shutdown and restart has taken care of this problem for me. This is a computer on your wrist so there is bound to be something once in a while. Full charge takes an hour or so. Being able to change the watch face is nice but not overly important to me although there are so many out there to choose from. Being retired I don't use all the features available the watch provides but it keeps very good track of my sleep habits, steps and O2. I do like the feature that if you have to split your sleep cycle for some reason the watch is able to realize that and give you different readings for each one within the same day. The pulse feature is nice and fairly accurate in my case when checked against another device. The same with the O2. The Zen feature is nice when you need to take a few moments to de-stress a little during these trying times. Alarms are easy to set or change as needed. There are plenty of apps built in to tailor to your schedule and lifestyle. Pricey? Yeah maybe a little compared to other watches available but in my humble opinion this is a full featured device that is worth the extra cost. Having a standard band size allows an individual to find one they are comfortable with is a plus also. There are plenty of exercise routines programmed in to choose from. Messages are clearly displayed and easily scrolled if need be. I would highly recommend this watch if you are looking for one that has a lot of features and apps built in. If you are leaning toward a higher end device with a lot of built in features this is a good choice.

Pros: Inexpensive, reliable, good alternative to 1st party Canon/Nikon flashesCons: Feels a little cheap (plastic-y)Overview:The TT560 from Neewer arrived on time with Prime shipping. It came in a nicely packaged red/black box, and came with a small carrying case and stand.As a Canon shooter that didn't want to spend $500+ for a flash, I shopped around for other alternatives. I initially bought a Yongnuo flash from a local store, but the thing broke under heavy use (it just stopped firing - apparently a common issue with the transistor). I was extremely disappointed when it broke, as it had been working perfectly until then. I thought I was done with third-party flashes, but something told me to pull the trigger on buying a Neewer. I am nothing but pleased with the purchase.Review:This flash is minimalist, bright, easy-to-operate, and overall a good product. It communicates with my hot shoe using Yongnuo triggers perfectly, and fits on a standard light stand as well as on a tripod (using the included base). I've used it on planned shoots with modifiers, and I've used it bouncing off walls for quick snapshots--the thing is a workhorse. I'm not so sure if a professional should trust it as their main line of flashes, but from what I can tell the thing is reliable.The flash feels plastic-y and cheap, but that was okay with me as long as it worked. The battery door, especially, feels like it could break with one small accident. Also, the swiveling head doesn't feel as solid as a Canon flash.That said, it's under forty dollars. There is no doubt in my mind that this flash is worth that. Controlling light in photography is one of the main things that separates the good shots from the great, and this is a great, affordable choice. If you're a beginner or need a second/third/fourth speedlite, I would confidently recommend the Neewer TT560 .

I have issues with falling asleep in total silence - for years I just left the TV on with a movie or TV series DVDs, but that would keep me up and drove my husband up the wall. We thought of buying a sound machine and I looked around a lot, and finally settled on this one. We have no complaints at all.The sound quality and volume levels are perfect, and all of the sounds are extremely relaxing. It sits across the room and we have no issues hearing it - the machine takes over the room at night. The speaker is literally the entire top of the machine. I enjoy that you can let it play all night or set it up on a timer, too (30, 60, 90, 120). The display lights come on for about a minute when you hit any of the buttons, which I love because I hate anything that has extra lights on - I like complete darkness at night. You can set it so they're always on, but it's nice that they don't have to be.The only feature we don't use is the 'Adaptive' feature, which raises the volume to cover outside noises. I think it's a nice feature to have and it works very well, but we just don't need it.The machine is also nice and compact - it sits up on our DVD player, small and out of the way. It plugs into the wall, and it's extremely portable. We were out of town last weekend and we took it to the hotel with us.This machine runs a bit more than others, but I guarantee it's worth every penny. You get what you pay for.**Edited November 28, 2010 - Our machine suddenly stopped working at the end of this past week. We contacted the company directly and they're 2-day shipping us a replacement, and providing us with a UPS prepaid label to return the non-working machine. And they responded on a Saturday, within hours of us contacting them through their website. Talk about customer service!

This is a pretty great lamp. I am someone who is very sensitive about my lighting. I hate overpowering overheads; I can't stand light that is overly warm (yellowish); I get eye strain in heavy shadow. I've done a lot over the years to try and make my lighting true-to-color and good for my eyes (which, at age forty, sometimes strain).This lamp delivers for me in spades. The full bar light makes my entire workspace less shadowed and more visible. The ability to adjust both brightness AND color is just amazing for me, since tint is one of those things I'm bothered by. The one-tap on/off is just fine, and the hold-tap to autoadjust the light is wonderful. So far, I've only once reached up to adjust the light after auto-adjusting. As the light in the room changes throughout a day I routinely re-auto adjust it, but that's expected.Now the cons: it's a big, ungainly lamp in some ways, taking up both more space on the desktop AND in the space overhead. If you're moving up from a basic desk lamp, you may be surprised at how differently it fits your available space. Also, as other reviewers have noted, the base-to-arm assembly is HORRID, a single little screw that comes off the second any lift is applied. Yes, they warn you about it (complete with a sticker on the base, so you don't crush your foot), but a better design would have found a way to make the need for the warning superfluous.Here's the big question, though: is this worth $300? I think that's a question only you can answer. It seems expensive to me (I am thankful mine is a review unit), but it's definitely heads and shoulders above conventional lamps.

 The LED atmosphere speakers by Gspinrad, (try saying that one) is a really nice quality set of outdoor speakers that have a fake LED flame. The quality of the materials and the flames are great, but the speakers are only good. You really can’t expect much considering the size of the speakers. Here are some of the things I’ve learned while owning it and things to consider before buying.I. Quality – The overall quality of the materials used that you can see and touch are really nice for this kind of product. I would guess it should last a long time assuming the electronics survive.II. Flames – I really like the look of the flames and I’m usually not a LED flame kind of person. They create a nice feel and atmosphere in the area they’re in. You can also just have the light be on, instead of the flames. (See my video for a demo)III. Speakers – The speakers aren’t that good honestly, but you need to have realistic expectations for this size speaker. They are small and therefor can only produce so much. They are at least decent for the size and connect though Bluetooth.IV. Waterproof – It’s only rained a few times and they are still working great.V. Versatility – I actually use these inside the house too and love the inside/outside versatility they offer. They look great in either location.Overall, I’m completely enjoying these speakers/lights and have definitely recommended them to some of my friends. Unless you are mainly going for the speaker part and want really loud quality sound, this is a great set worth your attention.If you’d find it helpful to see an up-close visual inspection of this product, I recommend you watch my included video in full screen.You can trust that my reviews are always my honest opinion that attempts to provide you with helpful insight that I wish I had before I chose this product. Hopefully it was helpful.

This is a tough one to write because we always judge a product on how much money we spend - which makes sense. But if I were to take out the cost variable I’d say these are definitely top of the line, the materials and design alone make this a stunning product. It’s weighty but as light as feather while providing a close to “purist” sound quality. Phone calls are utterly insane, blocking out all exterior noise while keeping the receiver crisp and clear but not to the point where like most headsets make you feel like you’re in a vacuum and have you end up talking louder than you should be. The 700’s mic and intake of exterior sounds blend perfectly to make it appear the person is right next to you in the room. The Bluetooth component is a nice touch. Being able to connect to two devices at the same time by toggling back and forth with the app on your phone is brilliant. Wrapping this up, my only complaint about these is that they’re not that comfortable, short term sure, but movies or video games they start to pull down on the top of your head causing a dull headache. Maybe I’m sensitive though? But I recall my friend’s QC-35’s on long flights never having this affect. Ok so money?, Tying in the hundreds of dollars I spent, I can’t say they’re 100% worth it, but I also can’t see myself buying any other product that’s in a lower tier. If I was patient I’d wait for the Sony MX-4’s to see what they have in store, especially based on comfort. But wanted ANC straight away, and I’ll say I’ve been really enjoying them, they block out most sounds and oddly not others, which I know there’s a science about and makes total sense. For now it completely blocks my upstairs neighbors out and that’s all that matters.

Update: The Lock works great. The app and company aren't as great, but are better than I thought. It's worth it now. Updated from 2 to 5 stars.- Lock: You can set up your own codes, lock or unlock the door with your phone, and get notifications when someone uses a code to open the door. Remote unlock works, but by default it's disabled in the app settings. You have to enable it while connected with a Bluetooth connection to the lock. Once enabled though, you can unlock the door from anywhere in the world if you have a Wi-Fi or data connection where you're at. Big win.- Company: I reached out to the company to try to resolve issues via the email address they provide in the app. It doesn't work. It bounced back three times. However, I left a poor review in Amazon the first time and after a few weeks they contacted me! They wanted to work it out or refund my money, and didn't even mention returning the lock, which I was very pleased with. I didn't want a refund, I just wanted the lock to work, and with their help through a few emails I was able to resolve all issues. This is a big deal to me.- App: The app throws error messages or gives user hints that don't really make sense. Sometimes they don't even fit in the space provided and are cut off. It seems they were written in Chinese and translated to English. Based on the response from the company, though, my hope is they will iron this out in some update at some point soon. The app also didn't seem to let me share access to the lock and remote control functions with my wife's phone, but we were finally able to fix that with an admin account by using the same email address and phone number combination on the invitation as on her account with TTLock.

UPDATE:I've installed this deadlock at my garage rear door in the summer and look like doing gardening resulting most of the time to a bit of dust or humidity (water or sweat) on my finger and that explain my bad result with the fingerprint reader. Now I realized using it with clean fingers it work good 9/10 times (when failed I retry with better positioning and it work the 2nd time).With the fingerprint working most of the time I then have to use very few times the keypad that mean the little time to wait to wake up the keypad is I found annoying is not the case anymore as using the keypad in rare occasion (dusty or wet fingers).That mean for a front door use with 99% with clean hands this lock should work fine!I pass my review from 3* to 4*. Why not 5*? Because it was a pain making the hole bigger from my old deadbolt to the bigger hole required by this one in my steel door! An adventure not easy for everyone. I can't say which deadbolt hole is not standard or most common, my old one or this lock... Then if you have a steel door who will make it way more difficult to make a bigger hole it will worth the value you unscrew your actual one to check the size of the hole to check if it's the same size as this one require. 2.13in diam. hole.---------------------------------------------The fingerprint reader is not working 99% of the time. Most of the time it says "operation failed". Got it work 1 time in 20 attempt. Have to touch some times to wake-up the keypad to enter a code...a bit annoying but it work that way. The RF card work well. As I had a steel door and the existing hole was smaller than this one requirement. Then it was not really easy to install for me... Take that in perspective if you have a steel door and already a deadbolt lock.. A hole saw is useless if there's already a big hole... Had to make the hole bigger with an oscillating tool saw and that was a challenge in a steel door.
