Veteran Owned and Operated. – American Brass’ 7.62 and .50 Caliber Bullet Bottle Opener Combo Pack.

Standard

I actually already own both the bottle opener and keychain from American Brass. I love them, and use them all of the time. My older son actually confiscated and has kept the bottle opener. The thing is made unbelievably well, and is so durable. It works perfectly, and has a very high cool factor to it as well. The same goes for the keychain. I kept that one though, and never let him touch it, lol. I was thrilled to see them available as a set, and even more thrilled to be able to review the set. This company uses only pre-fired demilitarized, bullet casings, from our US Military. How fantastic is that. I love that! What a story that makes when you present this as a gift. It’s nicely packaged, and ready to go out of the box. The keychain is made out of the 7.62 casing, and the bottle opener is made out of the .50Cal casing. These are brass, thick, and solid. They are not bendy in the least. They are not dirty, or rough to hold. They have a great patina to them as well. The keyring that comes with the 7.62 bottle opener, is a tight and solid key ring. This company is even a “Veteran Owned and Operated company.” It doesn’t get better than that. The surface is smooth. You could have the larger bottle opener engraved on your own as well. Or, you can do it yourself if you are handy. There are no negatives with this set. It’s completely a win, win situation here. You get to open your bottle like a boss, hands down. You’ll even get to carry your keys, like a boss! I most definitely recommend this set.

These will brighten your way. – South Platte Supply’s LED Safety Lights with Clip & Velcro Strap- (2 Pack).

Standard

Whether you have a runner in the family, or just a child that’s not too fond of the dark, these lights can be very helpful. My husband is our runner, and my youngest hates, hates, hates, the dark. Both can fully utilize these. I was intrigued by them, but now that I have them, I really, really like them. These lights are only 2 inches long and 1 inch wide, and they only weigh 2.2oz. You can either clip them on to your laces, belt, pack and more. Or, you can use the included stretchy Velcro straps, and wrap them around your arms, ankle, handlebars. Whatever works best for you. These lights each have a push on/off button on the top side of the light. So, they are easy to operate, and don’t have to be removed to turn them on or off. These are two mode lights. The first press turns them on to solid on, and the second press turns them onto their flashing mode. The third press turns them off. If you are cycling, the flashing mode really helps to get the attention of the cars on the road. You could put one on your outer arm, and one on the back of the bike, like a tail light. It’s weather resistant too, so you don’t have to worry about being caught out in the rain. This is a great set to put in your pack when you head out on a hike. If it starts to get dark, you can pull them out in a flash. It’s a very useful set. It really can be used from anything from fear of the dark to running, and safety.

The perfect Ionic Hair Brush Set. -SySrion’s Ionic Hair Straightener Brush 2.0.

Standard

My hair is a mess, lol. It truly has a mind of its own. I am fond of these Ionic Hair Brushes. I have others, but I was excited to try this set from SySrion. I love this set. It comes with the brush, a storage bag, 2 hair clips, and a glove, for those of you who may burn your hand. I do not need the glove with this brush. But, if you are one to always grab the bristles (plates), then this will be perfect for you. It’s the most complete set I have used, that’s for sure. All my other brushes have just come with the brush. The buttons for this brush are on the back of the handle. They are slightly inset, and are not easy to press by accident. You won’t have to worry about turning it off, or changing your heat setting, with this one. I wrap my hand around the handle when I use it, and I have not accidently pushed the buttons at all. I love the ceramic plates on this brush. They really work through my messy hair without pulling on it, and yanking it out. I can take my messy pony tail down, after being outside and windblown, and it tames and de frizzes my hair easily. I am always really impressed with that too. This brush has 5 heat settings. Just press the power button until you reach your desired setting. This brush moves from 302 degrees Fahrenheit to 446 degrees Fahrenheit. The cooler temps are perfect for fine hair, and the highest temp is perfect for my thick, unmanageable hair. They include a great instruction pamphlet for first time users. This brush does not dry out my hair. It actually looks and feels healthier after using it. The negative ions in this brush is what gets rid of the frizz in your hair. The trick is to move the brush slowly through your hair. It works more efficiently this way. You can even help style your hair with this brush. Work it like you would a regular brush, and the heat will help style your hair in that direction. This brush is really a great tool. I love the bright blue color of my brush, but they also have it available in black and pink; something for everyone. I really can’t say enough positive about it.

A quick and easy way to polish your leather. – Sunshower-US’ Electric Shoe Polisher Leather Sofa Brush.

Standard

Let me tell you, my husband loves to polish his shoes. He finds it relaxing. He was also very happy to see this shoe polisher, when it arrived. With the cost of real leather shoes nowadays, you really need to take care of them too. It’s pretty wild having an electric shoe polisher. Before, it was all up to your muscle. It takes longer to do it by hand as well. This particular shoe polisher comes with 1 battery, a battery charging station, and 3 heads. The heads include the Shoe Oil Brush, the Polish Brush, and the Microfiber Brush. You need to use them in that order, as well. The battery drops into the handle easily. Then you just push the battery cover back on, and you are ready to go. This entire unit is rubber coated, so it has a great grip. There is one button inside of the handle, which is both the on and off button. It has the one speed only. The head attachments just push on, and pull off. So, these are also easy to change out and use. The only thing you need to supply is the polishing oil/conditioner. It is a noisy machine, but it has decent power to it. Definitely enough to polish shoes and boots. There is not a lot of hand vibration, in case that is any issue for you. The surface coverage is pretty large too.  The heads measure in size from 2 ¾” to 3” in size. Not too shabby, if you ask me. You can use these on anything leather, really. You can use this brush to polish and condition your car seats, couch, chair, and more. It is so quick and easy to use. It makes doing a quick but effective polish a breeze.

Helps keep your health on track. – Jarv’s Advantage IPX7 Water Resistant Smart Watch.

Standard

My husband recently got back from Kuwait. His activity has completely changed, so I thought he would really appreciate this watch. It’s important to keep on top of your health. Using a smart watch like this one, really helps you to keep on top of it, while you are busy during your work day. It comes with a free app to really help you track yourself: I-GotU Life from the Google Playstore. This watch is compatible with phones that have Android 4.3 or higher and IOS 7.0 or later. We have only used it with Android devices. It connected immediately with my husband’s Galaxy Note 5 phone. This watch has Bluetooth 4.0 technology in it. My husband leaves it on 24/7. It is comfortable to wear. We love the regular round watch face, with the traditional watch strap style. The strap it comes with is a TPU band. It is interchangeable though. So, you could put on any watch band you want. My husband finds it very comfortable and has left it as is so far.

This watch will track you 24/7. The battery life lasts up to 10 days on a full charge as well. On day 2 ½, my husband’s watch still had a full battery. I was not expecting the battery life to really last like they said. I was quite pleased to be proved wrong. The display is an OLED display and is quite clear. It was quick and easy for my husband to set up. It tracks his activities, sleep, calories burned, steps taken, distance traveled, and the goals you had set up for yourself. It synced up with his fitness app he had on his phone already, and carried over the steps he had already taken for the day, the first day he turned it on. It also carried over the amount of steps that he had set up for his daily goal. Now, that’s impressive. It really syncs up to. When I send him a text, it pops on his watch screen. The same goes if he’s getting a call. Now, you have to remember to turn on notifications for your calls, texts, calendar, emails, and social media. It has a solid waterproof rating of IPX7. You can wear it in the shower with you, while washing dishes, and bathing your kids. It can go into the water up to 1M for up to 30 minutes. So everyday water activities are fine. It has more features too. It gives you the current UV warning index so you can further protect your health. It has a timer, and a sports setting. You turn on the sports activity setting when you start out for a run, a game of basketball, etc.., and it will give you the steps, calories burned, for that specific activity. My husband has been loving his watch. He is highly impressed with the long charge life. It really is a 10 day life on a full charge. We have no complaints on this watch. It’s working better for us than most smart watches we have tried. My son even stated that this watch does more than his fitbit does.

Hot coffee to go. -HappyGo’s Stainless Steel Thermos.

Standard

My guys live and breathe on the road for work. Coffee is most definitely one of their staples. This thermos is so cool too. We are thrilled with how HappyGo set up their thermos. It not only is a thermos, but it is also your travel mug. The lid is a little different to open. It looks like you would press a button, and it would pop up, but it doesn’t. There’s a little lever you have to move out of the way, and then you can press and open the lid. So, on the positive side, you will not accidently open this up and spill it. The seal is pretty good as well. It was well done overall. This is a 16oz thermos travel mug. We bought it in black, but they also have it in white, which is a refreshing color. There is a great mouthpiece on this for easy drinking. I really appreciate it because I tend to dribble on myself, lol. The mouthpiece on this is pretty large and deep, so that shouldn’t be an issue for you with this one. My husband has used it for his coffee on the road with great success. There is no glass lining in this thermos. It is 18/8 stainless steel double walled and durable. The lid is made from BPA free Silicone, food grade. There are no toxin worries with this thermos. It doesn’t affect the flavor of your drinks at all either. It just helps to keep your coffee fresh and hot longer and your cold drinks to stay cold, much longer, as well. It’s definitely a keeper for us. It’s a great quality product.

Incredibly durable! – Bomber & Company’s Bomber Barrel Duffel Bag and Dopp Kit.

Standard

One can really never have enough bags. They wear out, and are always needed. My guys do a lot of on the road work. So, we go through bags. They are tough on them! My husband is also military, so I was intrigued by their military tough claims. I couldn’t wait to play with these bags. This girl loves a challenge. I was also intrigued how they raised over $500,000 in their kickstarter project. That is impressive. You will get the two bags in your set. They arrive in pretty cool packaging as well. The two bags are made out of 100% PU Coated Ripstop Nylon and webbing straps. The hardware is quite impressive. It is solid metal, not cheap at all. The pull cords are made out of Paracord, and not just a piece of it, but an actual braided section of it. The zippers are waterproof zippers as well. These bags truly are rough and tough. It cracks me up, that even the little doodads bag is just as tough. It’s the mini me of the bomber bag. The bomber bag measures out at 16” long x 10” tall, and 10” deep. It has a separate shoulder strap that clips on with the most durable, and cool clips. They are the best I have seen on a shoulder strap. The larger bag has a small zippered pocket on the outside of the bag, and another one on the inside of the bag. It’s amazing how much you can fit in these bags. I fit one of my sons jackets into the smaller bag, and 5 of our jackets into the larger bag. The smaller bag has a great grab handle as well as an exterior zippered pocket. We’ve had a lot of fun testing these bags out. We have been throwing them off our deck, throwing water on them, throwing them around the house, and kicking them around. These babies are truly very durable! After everything I have thrown at them, I still do not have a scratch even on the fabric. This is a great weekender bag, duffle bag, and every day use bag. It’s definitely become a go to bag in our home.

Family fun. – iRush’s 3D Virtual Reality Video Glasses.

Standard

We are not new to VR glasses in my home. They are fun to use. We did discover though, that not everyone can use them. I have one son who injured himself when he was little. He can’t see the full view using the glasses. So, if you have some trouble, you are not alone. The rest of us can enjoy them though. This particular VR headset from iRush are very comfortable to use. They fit larger phones as well. This particular set is stated to fit phones from 4 – 6” in length. I have a Galaxy Note 5, and I can use these with my phone perfectly. I do have to remove it from my Otterbox case though. I have to with every pair of VR glasses we have. These are so easy to use. The front of the glasses has a magnetic closure, so just pull from the top to open. It opens easily for you. You will see the large clip that opens to hold your phone in place. There is a nice foam insert that protects your phone screen when inserted, and it holds your phone very securely as well. The front cover clips on, and can be removed completely. You can turn your camera mode on, and look through the lenses. It’s pretty wild. You can watch 3D movies on here as well as VR games and apps. Your phone does all the work. So, this will only be as good as your phone, really. I downloaded the VaR’s app from the Google Playstore. It is free, and has been working perfectly for me. Once you download the app, just do a search for VR games, and apps. Then download them to your phone. We like the dinosaur and aquarium apps. My son also like the rollercoaster one as well. When you have the goggles on, you really need to be able to stand up, and be able to turn in a full circle to get the full effect. On top of the goggles is a turn wheel. Just move this to adjust the pupil and focal distance as needed. It is adjustable from 55-75mm. I didn’t have to adjust it for myself. The headband is a wide and comfortable, Nylon webbing. It is adjustable on both the sides, and over the head. There is a plastic plate on the back of it to help keep it stabilized. It’s pretty comfortable on. Around the eyes, there is a deep padding done in a pleather like covering. It is very soft, and really makes the comfort of these glasses. It’s a fun experience that both the spectators, and the actual participate in. It’s fun to watch people react to what they are seeing. These can be used by virtually all ages as well.  You can have fun with this from Grandma to grandson, at one gathering. We have, and it’s fun to watch Grandma use it, lol.

We go through a lot of baseball caps in my household. My guys wear them all the time. They get really dirty and sweaty too. Using a Cap Washer like this one from JHeath on Amazon, can really help expand the life of your baseball cap. They let you really clean your caps, while maintaining their shape and integrity. It is so easy to use as well. You can place this in a washing machine that doesn’t have the tall agitator. They recommend the top rack of the dishwasher, on the normal cycle, the most though. Just place your hat into the unit. Then clip it shut, and place it on the top rack. Make sure the agitator on the top of the washing machine isn’t going to hit it. I didn’t think of that at first, but then moved it to the corner of the top rack, and it worked perfectly this way for me. I did have a hard time opening mine the first time. One of my clips did not want to slide through to open. I removed the cardboard from the packaging, and then I was able to work it easier. Place your dish detergent into the machine like usual, and wash it on the normal cycle. Then, leave your hat in the cap washer until it is dry. The same goes for the washing machine. I cheated, because I wanted to check on my hat, lol. Then I had to place the whole thing outside to dry, since I stopped the heat cycle. They also suggest using a mild detergent with the cap. I used one of those detergent pods, and it worked great! The cap washer is very gently on your cap. It is made out of plastic, and doesn’t affect your hat in any negative way. It’s such a simple design, but I am so glad someone invented one. It is the perfect answer for washing your hats.

A great knife for your car. – Outdoor Games’ WHX Outdoor Camping Survival Folding Knife.

Standard

I live in a house with a lot of guys, and guys like knives. Well, mine do anyhow. I have been converted, and get just as excited about them. Not only are they great tools to have, but the can help you save your life in an emergency. This knife from Outdoor Games can do just that too. It is a great tool to keep in your vehicle. This folding knife has a built in seatbelt cutter as well as a glass breaker on it. It does not come with a sheath, but it does have a metal pocket clip on it. It’s a long metal pocket clip, and sturdy. The blade is a Tanto blade and was made out of 440C Stainless Steel. Overall this knife measures out at 8 ¼” long when opened. The blade measures out at 3.5” to the tip. They state 2.9”, so I would check my state laws before ordering it. We can have up to a 4” blade on us, here in NC. This is a heaver blade with the built in car safety features. It weighs out at 7.3oz with my scale. My knife arrived in perfect condition. It arrived with the usual factory edge, and in my opinion needs to be sharpened. If I want my knife to be able to be fully utilized, it needs to have a sharp edge on it, capable of shaving those hairs, lol. The blade test we always do. Even though it’s a larger knife for me, I can still do the one handed open and close. I’m not great at flicking it open yet, since it’s larger. It is also a little tight when it first arrives, which is normal. There is no play in the blade. When it is opened, it is well locked in. To close it, you just need to press your thumb against the liner lock and push the blade shut with your other fingers. The blade has a camo like finish done on it. It’s pretty sharp looking. The handle is metal with a black, plastic insert which has ridges on it. It helps with the grip, and the aesthetics. There is a lanyard whole already there for you as well. This is a great tool to keep in a vehicle. It would be great camping or hiking as well. In a pinch you can cut your Paracord, or anything else you need. It’s thick and solid, and a great price for such a useful tool.
