See my video for more information. Mine arrived with a defective part, but thankfully I have a few of these and got it working pretty quickly. Please watch my video review and comment below if you have any questions. Assuming yours arrives without defect, $21 (at the time of this review) is a great price for 32 feet of LED light strip. I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review.

This light comes with a power cord if you want to plug it in or if it's not getting enough sun. It also comes with two methods of installation - a flat base that can be screwed into or otherwise connected to a flat surface, and a ground stake if you have a yard. There are pivot points above the stake connector and one on the solar panel so you can angle it toward the sunlight. There are no settings to speak of, which is the only complaint I might have about this light. You click the button on and it turns on when it's dark then charges during the day. It's not incredibly bright, which is probably good as it's shining toward our windows. I'm looking forward to actually having a light display this Christmas season.

These are probably the best Bluetooth wireless earbuds I have tried. They fit perfectly with the default ear piece and they sound great. The biggest plus of the Alterola is the battery meter on the case - it's reminiscent of the old battery meter Apple used to put on their laptops, and it's much appreciated to be able to see when you're in need of a charge and how long you can go without charging the case. The case itself is nice and has a great little magnetic 'click' when closing. The earbuds are pretty easy to pair with a device and once I initially paired them with my phone I haven't had to reset up the connection. One of the oddities of these earbuds is the power button - both earbuds have buttons on them, but both must be powered on individually. I guess you could call this a feature if you only wanted to the use right earbud and wanted to leave the left one off, but it's a bit odd. Conversely, if you power off just one earbud, the other will follow. It's a little bit of an inconsistent design - not enough to knock off a star, but worth noting. Overall, I'm really impressed with these earbuds and have taken to wearing them regularly. Get your own at http://a.co/dmLH0aW

2-year-old Leighton is taking the "stockings" a little too literally. So cute!

Get your own! https://amzn.com/B01IEVLGK4 When I saw the product description of being a "3 in 1", I was really assuming this would be one pinch phone holder that came with three different mounting arms - suction, dash, and vent. I was not expecting three COMPLETE cell phone holders. This is not a 3-in-1 product, this is 3 products in 1 box. I don't know why anyone would need three car phone mounts, unless you had three cars, but the great thing about this product is you have options. Some cell phone holders just don't work well in some cars - my vehicle only has one okay place to put a vent holder, a couple places for a windshield suction mount, but the dash mount might not work very well. My wife's vehicle has great placement for all three, but unlike my vehicle, she can't shut off her air vents individually so the phone will always be getting cold or hot air blown directly on the back of it with the vent mount. Z-Edge quality is always top-notch quality and these are no exception. These are easily the best most sturdy pinch mounts I have ever used. The window suction mount is incredibly strong and the dash mount is near perfection. The only negative about the vent mount is it covers an air vent - you really can't go wrong with any of these mounts. If you have two or three vehicles in need of cell phone mounts, this is a great way to go. If you have a car without Bluetooth capability with an Aux jack, check out something like the Maceton Aluminum Wireless Bluetooth 4.1 Receiver (https://amzn.com/B01IDEZ3YW) and you have yourself an incredible combination of safety and usability for having your cell phone in your vehicle. I was provided this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review, which I have provided.

The MOMAX LED Desk Lamp with 10W Wireless Charger is one of the best additions for your home office or bedroom.

I was 100% prepared to be let down by this mini drone, but my expectations have been MORE than exceeded. I'm shocked by all the flight options there are (even though they take a while to get the hang of) and how easy it is to control right out of the box. Very cool - and the LED lights are a plus! It comes with regular AA batteries for the remote control and two rechargeable batteries for the drone itself. The charger is a simple USB plug that you can plug the batteries in to in order to charge - really easy to figure out. There are simple flight options - one joystick controls the height, the other banks - and more advanced options - hold in the right top trigger to do a rise and flip - as well as incremental adjustments using some of the many small buttons on the controller face. It'd be nice if they were labeled better, but it's a small enough controller you will learn it by feel. All in all, I'm really impressed at what I got for the cost. I've had other "mini quadricopters" that did not last a day, and so far we've had a lot of fun playing with this. Still a bit too complicated for the 4-year-old to control, but both her and the 1-year-old love to watch it fly.

This wireless Bluetooth speaker has some pretty great sound. It's nice and small, not too heavy, comes with a little carabiner clip as well as an AUX headphone cable and micro USB charge cable.

Like it or not, we live in a digital word full of services, and all those services need accounts, and all those accounts need passwords. I can be annoying to have to create new passwords for every service, but you also need to be secure - is it even possible to be secure and remember all those passwords? Yes. Yes it is.

Have you ever seen an advertisement for a "flickering flame light" that promised to "look like real flames" and been skeptical? I was once, too. Then I purchased my first solar flickering flame light - that was in 2018 and I've expanded my flickering LED flame light collection since. I don't get commission from anything in this video, just trying to pass along useful information.

I really like this water bottle - it feels great in the hand and has a couple nice features like a button lock on the lid and the measurement ticks on the back of the bottle for if you forget how much liquid your bottle holds. The color is nice and bright, the grip in the middle of the bottle is nice and rubbery - there simply is not much to complain about. The one negative I have is the hand strap - it looks nice, but it's fabric and it's not removable which means it's going to get wet. It's not an if, it's a when, so I guess we just have to deal with it. It's nice to have a bottle cleaner brush included and a couple extra rubber pieces for the top in case those wear out and the spill-proof becomes not-so-spillproof. Those are good extras.

Get your own! https://amzn.com/B01HNFH6D8 BMOUO 2 Reels 12V 32.8ft Waterproof Flexible SMD3528 RGB 600 LEDs, LED Strip Light Kit I have used many "waterproof" LED light strips. These are no different, but I do really like these over others I have for a few reasons. First, I really like the power connector on this set. It's super low profile and comparatively a lot easier to hit the IR eye with the remote. The color on these lights seem a bit weak when compared to a couple of my other lights, but that's not a huge deal. They still create the color well. The waterproofing is pretty thin but looks like it will protect the lights. These strips have 3M sticky backing but don't bother - it will fall off. If you want these to be semi-permanent just use other 3M command strips to stick these and leave on the 3M backing. The remote is the same one I have with a couple of my other LED strip lights. It has a lot of options, including several DIY color options you can customize by adding red, green, or blue. The Auto option jumps through the colors, the Jump options jump through 3 or 7 colors and the Fade options fade through 3 or 7 colors. I prefer Fade 7 then I slow it down as much as possible to get a nice slow shift. These lights do have a nice smooth transition between colors, unlike some other LED lights I have used. I typically find that to be due to the adapter between the power source and the lights however, and not due to the LED lights themselves. All in all, this is a great value for the price I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review.
