Smokin Hot! – Sywon’s 6-in-1 Soldering Iron Kit with Carrying Case.

Standard

Soldering irons can be used for many tasks from jewelry making, to electronic repairs, and LED lighting projects, and more. We are pretty happy with this set up from Sywon. It comes with a great storage case as well as solder, a solder sucker, solder stand, and 6 soldering tips. The soldering iron is a 60W iron. The Y solder stand probably won’t last very long though. It’s thin metal, and comes in a credit card form. You unfold it to make the stand. You can just lay it down so the tip area is on the metal card. That might be safer. My husband says there’s tips that would also be great for wood burning as well. This soldering iron is also adjustable from 200-450?, which is equivalent to 392F – 842F. So, be careful if you haven’t used one before. Make sure your work surface can tolerate the heat. It works on our traditional 110 US voltage. The soldering vacuum is pretty cool. It is made out of aluminum and plastic, and provides solid suction. Press it against your skin to test it. My husband really likes how fast this soldering iron heats up. He said he has to wait so much longer for his old one. He is able to accomplish a lot of his wiring jobs on the lowest of the settings too. In other words, this is new soldering iron.

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.

Crisp clear sound with SoundPEATs New Arrival Q11 Bluetooth 4.1 Wireless Sport Headset.

Standard

I have to admit it; I am really fond of Soundpeat headphones. They really haven’t disappointed us in the past. I was so happy to receive their Q11 headphones to test. I love, love, love this over ear design. If you are bouncy, have a lot of hair, and are active, these babies will not fall out of your ear, and they are sweat proof! The design is perfecto! I wouldn’t change one thing! I really can’t express that enough. The design is perfect. Now, down to the music, lol. I wouldn’t be happy if they stayed on, but sounded horrible. That would be extra horrible, lol. These sound wonderful. The music and phone calls are nice, and crisp and clear. They chalk that up to their Bluetooth 4.1 technology and their apt X technology. It’s working for them. The bass and instrumental are clear. No edginess, or interference. There is no jumping or static at different levels. These headphones do have a bar off of the right ear. The controls are on the bar, and the micro USB port to charge them is on the right ear. The bar has a multipurpose button in the center, and a plus and minus buttons on either side of the multipurpose button. Press and hold the multipurpose button to turn them on and to pair. They come up as QY11 to pair, and no code is needed. They paired immediately with My Galaxy Note 5 phone. They do speak to you a little. For example: Power on, Power off, Phone 1 connected. They do not state the incoming call phone number though. One press of the multipurpose button is all it’s needed to both answer a phone call and to hang up a phone call. It will go back to playing your music when your call is over. Now, for the + and – buttons. Short press the minus button to lower the volume, long press to restart your song. Short press the + button to increase the volume, and long press to move to the next song. It’s very responsive, no lag. The calls are clear, and I had no trouble answering or hanging up. My husband used them out and about on the road for work without a hitch. You really can’t take calls without Bluetooth when you are in a car. Hands free is really the only way to go. He is on the road a lot, but has to take calls for work. These allow him to be safe and efficient. He also likes to run, and these are there for him yet again. Unfortunately I really love them too, lol. But, I love him more, so he gets first dibs on keeping them.

Performs like my Yeti! – Kryogear’s KRYO KUP – 20oz Tumbler Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Travel Mug.

Standard

I am a big fan of these new double walled stainless steel cups. We have the name brand one, Yeti, already. I was excited to compare the two. I like a challenge. This particular cup is by Kryogear on Amazon, and it is the 20oz version. They have the name Kryo nicely etched on the side of the cup. That is literally the only difference between the Kryo cup and the Yeti cup. My cup came with 1 lid and 1 stainless steel straw. It is supposed to come with two lids, but that was of no concern to me, so I never said anything. If that happens to you, you can request the 2nd lid. This cup is made out of 18/8 stainless steel. It is thick and durable. I love stainless. It doesn’t naturally harbor fungus, bacteria, or mold. The lid has a great seal on it and works perfectly. I placed ice in the cup, and after 12 hours of sitting in my living room/kitchen combo space, it had melted approx.. only a 1/6th of the way. I was very impressed indeed. It matches up to the Yeti perfectly. This cup is comfortable to hold when it’s full of ice. Since it is made with a double wall of stainless, hot drinks stay hot longer as well, and is just as comfortable to hold. We love using our cups like this one. I always keep a drink on hand with a ton of ice, even when I go out. I suffer from frequent anaphylactic reactions, and my throat is always sore and swollen. I have to have an icy drink with me. I can rely on this cup to even stay icy throughout the night! I can’t express how important this is to me. I love how they include the straw with the cup. It’s great for those who don’t have a supply on hand already. I love using our stainless straws. Yet again, no chemical worries. With this set up there will be no chemicals leaching into your drinks. This company even offers a lifetime guarantee! I am very comfortable recommending this product. It’s pretty top notch!

The much needed bling for your finger. – Parati’s Women’s 18K Rose Gold Plated CZ Cut Diamond Anniversary Engagement Ring.

Standard

What girl doesn’t love sparkly jewelry. I’ve never met one. This particular ring by Parati has wonderful sparkle and shine to it. I love how it is Rose Gold plated, and 18KT Rose Gold plating in fact. It really makes it an affordable, but really pretty ring, for almost any lady. I ordered it in the size 7 so I could wear it on any finger. I also have a ring sizer. I find this ring to be true to size. That is always a relief when ordering online. I hate wasting money and time. They currently offer this ring in both White Gold, and Yellow Gold plating as well. The sizes they are offered in currently range from 5 – 9. There is one large stone on this ring, encircled with smaller ones. The smaller ones even go partially down the band. All of my settings were done well. I do not have any loose or chipped stones. They used Cubic Zircon for the stones. It turns out that it is harder than Crystal, which is a fun fact to know. The large, centered stone, is set up higher from the smaller ones. It makes for a grand look. If you were pressed for money, this could easily be your engagement ring or wedding band; it’s that pretty. I do not know what metal alloy was used in the fabrication of this ring. Since it is Rose Gold plated, it hasn’t bothered my skin. It has so much sparkle to it, especially when the light hits it just so. It makes a great gift, as it arrives in a very pretty velvet ring box. Just perfect for gift giving.

Power on the go.-Wotech’s 10000mAh Two-Output Fast Charging Power Bank.

Standard

We are big power bank users in our home. My husband especially uses them all of the time. Even when he goes to bed, and uses his phone as his alarm clock. He doesn’t have an open outlet by his side of the bed, so a power bank is his only option. We have our cable phone and router system tied into that outlet. This power bank by Wotech is a fantastic size at 10,000mAh. That is a great and very convenient size battery. This power bank is white in color. It is lightweight, and a great size at 5 ½” long by 2 ¾” wide and approx. ½” thick. It charges via the included micro USB cord. There are 2 USB out ports on it, so you can charge two items at the same time. It even has auto shut off. So, if you accidently press the power button, and turn it on, it will shut off after about a minute without anything plugged into it. This power bank also has over charge protection, over current and short circuit protection, over voltage protection, over discharged protection. In other words, you can feel good about using this power bank with your expensive tablets, phones, and more. You can charge anything that charges via a USB cord. There are dedicated USB ports on this unit. They are only labeled out though. The one closest to the power button is the 2A out port, and the one furthest from the power button is the 1A out port. IPhones charge well on the 1A. My larger Note 5 Android phone, needs the 2A port to charge. It does charge well on this unit. I topped off the charge on my phone, and this power bank still had 4 blue LEDs lit up on it. I like power banks with these lights. It’s easier to see when your power bank needs to be recharged. Each bar represents 25% of its power level. I can charge my phone twice and my tablet once on this power bank, easily. It has not become hot to the touch while charging either. It’s definitely a keeper. We rely on them daily. They are great when you are out and about with work, and travel. They are also imperative to have in the home, in case of a power outage.

Meet the Dragon from Vomach.

Standard

I live in a home of gamers, lol. Especially computer gaming. These headphones are definitely getting some use. The have two 3.5mm cables and one USB cable attached to it. The USB is to power the green LED lighting throughout the headphones. I love the green LED lighting on these Vomach Dragon headphones. It really adds to the gaming environment. The mic on these actually lights up green as well. You do not have to use the LED lighting in order to use the headphones. My younger son’s computer isn’t set up for him to use the LEDs while using the headphones, unfortunately. My computer is, as well as my older son’s. One Aux cable powers the mic and headphones, and one just does the headphones, and no mic. No, they are not labeled, lol. My younger son always speaks to his friend while they play games, and the mic has been very clear for him. There is a mic off switch and a volume control bar, part way down the 2meter cable, and they are very easy to operate. It’s pretty generous in size, which is good for him, because he can’t sit still. The mic is clear on both ends too. You will not have to yell and keep repeating yourself with this one. I listened to videos and the sound is very clear. Both the bass and instrumental were pretty level. No weird pitches, no static, or lag. My son says they are perfect. And he is not a fan of headphones. He’d rather scream into the computer. It’s a lot of fun, lol. The ends of the Aux cables are gold plated for enhanced performance. The headband itself has a spring loaded adjustment to fit your head, and allow for comfortable movement and fit. The ear padding is very soft on the ears as well. On the inside of the ear cups you will see a screen printed Dragon; a nice touch if I do say so myself. Overall, we are very pleased with the Dragon from Vomach.

Great sound quality. – Vomach’s Bluetooth Earphones.

Standard

We use Bluetooth headphones all of the time in my household. They are well loved, lol. My guys live and breathe with them, since they can use them at work and for working out. They always need to be able to take calls as well. With Bluetooth headphones like these, they can continue to work and drive, and still take calls from inspectors, head of the company, clients and more. These headphones are perfect for them, and very slick looking. The design is very modern, and professional. These Vomach Bluetooth Earphones come with a small micro USB charging cable, and 2 pairs of extra silicone earbuds. The controls are on the right ear. The micro USB charging port is on the left ear. The controls are on the right ear are a +, – and multipurpose button. The multipurpose button is on the top, and the other two buttons are on the backside of your ear. This is pretty easy to remember. These headphones have Bluetooth CSR V4.1 technology. You can even connect to two items at the same time. After you connect with the first item, turn off your Bluetooth. Then connect the second item. Now, go ahead and turn the Bluetooth back on the first item.  The sound quality is pretty great, it really is. They have noise isolation as well. Lol, I keep yelling at people when I talk while the music is playing. The bass and instrumental sound well balanced, and clear. Music is really enjoyable with this set up. These talk to you, so there is no guessing. It states things like: Power On, Pairing, Power Off, and it even spells out the incoming call. On the right ears’ + button and – buttons, you long press these to adjust the volume, and short press to either move forward in your play list or restart your song. For the price point these are at, they are awesome. You can get about the usual 30ft away from these, just not down the hallway, around corners, or behind doors. These do get about 5hours of playtime, less if you play the music really loud. If you only use these for calls, maybe closer to 6 hours of battery life. These have in internal 80mAh battery. These also get 200 hours of standby time, and only take a 1 ½ hours to charge. Not too shabby. I really like these headphones.

I have Android, so I do not have that ability. They do get about 4 ½ hours of playtime, 180 hours of standby time, and only take a couple hours to charge. Not too shabby.

With this, you always have power. – Poweradd’s Pilot P1 Power Bank.

Standard

Power banks are definitely an essential every home should have nowadays. It’s just as essential as having back up batteries. We use ours for work, travel, emergencies, and when we can’t access an open outlet, lol. This particular power bank is by Poweradd. They call it their Pilot P1. It has an internal 5000mAh battery, as well as a 2A USB out port. Your power bank will arrive with 1 micro USB cord. That is how you charge it up. When fully charged you will see 4 blue LEDS lit up. They go down as you use it. The lights are on the side by the power button. It’s a lightweight unit, and measures out at 5 inches long and 2 ½ inches wide. It is also just under ½ an inch thick. Aesthetically it’s a very sharp looking power bank. I love the textured design. Power wise, it works wonderfully. It has smart charging capabilities. It will detect your device right away and provide what it needs. It charges our Galaxy Note 5 phones very quickly. We were able to charge our phone and a bug vacuum, and still had 25% battery life left on it. You can use this for anything that charges via a USB cord. If you have IOS products, you will need to provide your own cable. The same goes for other specialty charging cables. I plugged my phone into a regular power source, and my husband used this power bank. We were both at about 20% power left. His phone was fully charged, where my phone was still at 69%. So, this charger definitely charges quickly. This is really a great back up power source.
