First off, this telescope is practically unusable until you upgrade the tripod. You can get the moon, with some pain, but you won't get stars or planets, as others have noted. I upgraded to a hundred dollar Celestron Heavy-Duty Altazimuth tripod, and that made this a wonderful experience. That tripod lets you do tiny adjustments to altitude and azimuth (i.e. pitch and yaw), so you can get objects in view once you're in the vicinity and then keep them in view as they move with earth's rotation.With no visual upgrades, I was able to easily and clearly see Saturn, its rings, and at least one its moons. It will be small. Saturn is about the size of the saturn emoji on a cell phone held arms length from you, but it is bright, clear, and wonderful. If you see it and it looks like a giant dull orb with a line through it, you're out of focus. I made that mistake the first try. It will be small but crystal clear, with unmistable rings.I was also able to see Jupiter and four of its moons. I could not make out any banding or the red spot without making optical upgrades. Seeing the planets got me excited, so I've since spent many times more the original price of the telescope getting a new adjustable zoom eyepiece, new star diagonal, and a 2x barlow. They've improved the clarity and magnification enough for me to make out banding on Jupiter, and I'll be able to bring those along to future telescopes. Earth's moon is glorious, of course. This is a great beginner telescope, and I can't wait to see what I can see with it once this full moon goes away and gives me a darker sky.

(Pros&Cons list below!) Hi! Parent of 4 little bodies here! So I’m super delirious and I’m struggling with words but want to make sure I leave a review to help other parents decide if this is the right choice for them.For reference: we have had many video monitors over the past 7 years- our favorite was the summer infant one followed by a pretty basic Motorola video monitor.We ended up getting this one for the reasonable price and because it seemed like a solid middle of the road between the two I just mentioned. Let’s get to the pros and cons though because that’s what we’re all really here for:Pros:Clear imageDecent rangeSurprisingly accurate temperature readsMonitor Holds a charge wellCamera has a lot of angle flexibilityAudio is goodtwo way talking is great for scaring the cats out of the bedroom [insert purple devil emoji here]Has a lot of random setting options that I never use but my husband loves (like the alarm and stuff)Hasn’t picked up any ghosts yet so that’s always goodCons:The thing will randomly lose connection for a hot minute and give me a heart attackI wish adjusting the volume wasn’t a two-step process (unless I’m doing something wrong)I really don’t have many cons to list, this monitor system works really well so far but it has only been 3 months. I recommend it especially at the price point it’s listed at.

Why I got the Stream DeckWhen I first saw the Stream Deck I was not sure if it's a tool that I could utilize for my own needs since I am not a streamer but more of a general content producer in the video and audio section of the internet. So after roughly 2 weeks of having the Stream Deck I can assure you all, this device is a very versatile tool for many use cases. Consider it a fancy additional keyboard with LCD screens in the buttons to help you finding the hotkeys you have set up for a given situation.About the hardwareThe Stream Deck enables you to set up 15 hotkeys alone or set up a folder behind a hotkey with additional 14 hotkeys inside (+1 is pre selected to return back to the main overview) resulting in overall 210 possible hotkeys in a 118mm x 84mm big device. The buttons contain LCD screens which you can fill with your own image files with .jpg or .png format and with at least 72x72 pixels in size. If you want, you can also use the free Elgato Icon generator on their website in case you can't or don't want to use an image editing program. But also bigger files downloaded from the internet work without any problems when they are in the right format. In the settings you can also adjust the brightness of the screens if that's necessary. The USB cable is roughly 1m in length, not the longest cord but with a simple USB extension cable that's easy to fix (in case you need that longer distance from your PC).About the softwareThe Stream Deck program (delivered via the website for free of course) has build in support for the Elgato Game Capture software, of course, enabling you to switch scenes, start a recording, take a screenshot, enable and also OBS integration to switch scenes, mute an audio device and to activate sources (e.g. activating or deactivating the webcam, starting a video, etc.). Especially the integration with OBS is really solid so far being able to recognize changes in scenes and updates on the fly without needing to restart the program to update the selection of devices or scenes after a change in OBS. For Tipeee users you will also get a function which I personally can't comment on since I don't use this tool. Furthermore we have the option to post a precomposed tweet when you linked your Stream Deck software with your Twitter account. For streamers we have the Twitch functions to activate slow chat, subscriber only chat and also to deactivate the viewer count in the dashboard. The best function might be to write text in your own chat to trigger bots for example. Just like the Twitter function, you can setup a message in a textfield which should be posted in your chat by the press of a button.What really convinced me - System ButtonsNow, these functions are the integrated ones, but what I am the most excited about is the system functions. You can open websites directly in your standard browser, you have two kinds of hotkeys (one state or two state hotkeys), you can open any files by the press of a button (including apps and .exe files) and also use 6 base multimedia functions, including muting the system audio, increase or decrease the volume and play/pause + forward or backward a song.The hotkey button can be setup as mentioned in a one state or two state way. For me it was the best way to set up a recording and live button for OBS since my 2nd screen is quite crowded with programs and the way I have set it up (as seen in the screenshots) I can now easily spot if I am really recording in OBS and if I pressed live or not. It's a good way to get simple feedback even when a program is not in the front of your screen.Finally if you are willing to do some extra work, the "open" function can allow you to script or program extra functions via the tools AutoHotkey or a simple .bat file. So what I did was to setup a "Stream Prog Boot Up" button which simply opens a .bat file which opens all 6 programs I use for livestreaming. So instead of having to click a file somewhere on my system I can just get ready to stream with the press of one button. In the same way, you can setup AutoHotKey scripts for example. In my case I used it to set up a row of emoji folders that allow me to post them on PC without further need for tools. Since I can edit the LCD screens with any .jpg or .png file, it's very simple to set up. Of course, as mentioned above, you can also just set this button up to open any program in your system, even games that need a launcher like Steam first, without any problems.About the Stream Deck appThe screenshots from the program are taken with the official version 1.0.2.722. So far Elgato has pushed two updates since the release of the Stream Deck, showing me that they really care and are listening also to user feedback. I hope in the future for further integration of more programs like xSplit, but since most programs can use standard hotkeys like "Alt + 9" for example, these cases can be set up too. Just having a deeper integration would be lovely. Another thing that I would hope for is the function to jump from one folder to another with a button press, in case I want to switch from my Stream video folder for example back to my main control folder for OBS. Nothing is missing so far, it's just more useful applications of the Stream Deck that I hope will come up in the future.Final thoughtsThe Elgato Stream Deck is a handy tool not only for streamers but for all creative people and those in need of a big set of hotkeys. The LCD screens are bright enough and have a high enough resolution that even more complex icons are good to read/recognize. Setting the Stream Deck up with the given Stream Deck app is very easy and already delivers a lot of useful functions with the integrated programs which hopefully will only expand over more time. For people that want to go deeper the system functions allow for even more applications of the Stream Deck beyond the integrated programs which basically are only limited by your imagination where to use the hardware.For now I am very happy that I bought the device, despite the quite big price tag. It is certainly something for everyone with the need of up to 210 individual hotkeys. For everyone else, maybe think about it twice before you buy it. Do you really want to spent 150€ when you don't need a lot of hotkeys at your hand? The choice is yours.Thanks for reading.

I've finally found a nearly-perfect watch. The only flaw in the watch that I can think of is the battery, but that depends on how you use it. I've noticed that having the always on screen display on all day drains the battery because there are so many notifications coming in, and because the notifications vibrate, you know, vibration consumes more battery. So, after one day of use, I turned off the always-on display to enable the digital low LCD display, and the watch lasted me two days. After the battery died, I fully charged it and then turned on the always-on display and do not disturb while I was at home; the watch lasted three days. It is entirely depend on your requirements and usage. I just wish there was a way to disable the vibrates mode because even when you turn on the sound on the watch, it continues to vibrate along with the sounds. I'm hoping that new firmware updates will be released in the future to address this issue. Overall, an excellent purchase and one of the best smart watches I've seen, far superior to the Samsung Watch and Apple Watch in my opinion.ProsAnswering and rejecting phone calls directly from the watchThe speaker is outstanding.When responding to text messages from the watch, you can use text-to-speech, emoji, or the keyboard. I recommend that you use emojis and the text-to-speech features.You can view pictures that have been attached via text, emojis, and you can read the full text.The fitness is excellent, and the GPS is precise.It's not too big and feels very light on your wrist. I occasionally forget if I have it on my wrist.I like the strap and don't think I'll change it because it's durable for both classic and sports watches.The screen is responsive and free of lags.Not having rotated bezels isn't a deal breaker for me; in fact, I prefer it that way.ConsLife of the battery I just wish the battery could have lasted much longer with all of the features turned on.I like the vibration, but I wish there was a way to turn it off.I hope this helps, and thanks for your time. I'm not sure why some people are giving this watch negative feedback. I understand that everyone has an opinion, but you must ensure that the watch has been updated to the most recent firmware.

 King is a Cavapom and he's very hard on toys!!! He's been known to put holes in his new toys in less than an hour of getting them!! We got his Poop Emoji Farting Plush Toy on 9/10/2021 and I must say, it's the best money I've ever spent!!! I never spend this much money on a toy!!!! His normal routine is to have you kick or throw his toys and he'll chase them and kinda bring them back to you. We can't do that with this one. I gentle nudge with my foot and he grabs it and brings it to me. We have a craft business and I hear him drop it behind me. In fact, I hear him drop it behind me everywhere I go. This is unusual because he has never done that with any other toy he's gotten in the 9 years we've had him and we've had him his whole life! This is like his best bud! Thank you for creating this toy! We have had so much fun laughing at this toy and watching King react to it!!! Awesome job! Keep up the fantastic work!!! :-)

No obstante, para quien necesite algo más de información, algunos detalles más.El cable BENFEI B_GB_324black es un cable VGA a HDMI. ¡Ojo!, que en este caso, el orden de los factores SI altera el resultado. NO es un cable bidireccional: es VGA a HDMI y NO AL REVÉS, si enchufamos el HDMI al PC y el VGA al monitor, no veremos nada. Ya se sabe que "eso ya se ve"... pero no, los errores debido a esto son frecuentes.Como decíamos, es un cable VGA a HDMI. Esta conexión no es una conexión directa ni inmediata, por lo que requiere cierta cantidad de electrónica adicional. Esa es la razón de la cajita que se encuentra entre los dos extremos del cable, de la cual sale, por un lado un cable HDMI y por el otro, (entran) un cable VGA y un conector USB, cuya función es la de alimentar esa electrónica, que no vive del aire (además de pasar el sonido). Detalle, dos flechitas en la serigrafía de esa cajita nos muestran "el sentido de la marcha". Van de VGA a HDMI y no al revés.La fabricación es buena. No es raro encontrar en este tipo de cables unos malos acabados. Malos acabados que suelen ser un anticipo de la falta de calidad del resto del conjunto. En las pruebas realizadas con el BBENFEI B_GB_324black no es tal en este caso. Funciona y la calidad de la imagen y el sonido son las esperadas. Los conectores tienen buen aspecto, entran y salen bien -sin forzarlos- y ha funcionado a la primera.Es importante, avisa el fabricante, conectar primero el conector USB y luego el VGA. Esto es lógico, ya que así iniciamos la circuitería con las señales de video activas.. Yo recomiendo conectar todo con el equipo apagado, encender el monitor y luego arrancar el ordenador."No hay mejor informática que la que pasa inadvertida" y en mi caso, este cable ha dado la razón ha este dicho. "Conectar, arrancar el equipo y funcionar". Lo uso en un PC con GNU Linux Kubuntu 20.04, y automáticamente se han configurado las dos pantallas con el escritorio extendido y el sonido ha funcionado sin problemas (Emoji de sonrisa con corazoncitos).La longitud del cable es aproximadamente de metro ochenta. Suficiente para la mayoría de las aplicaciones, donde el equipo y la pantalla suelen estar uno al lado de otro. Nada que objetar.En resumen: Conectar, encender y trabajar... ¿What else?
