I like it and will be using it a lot, but I'm not
The Garmin VIRB really jumped over the Hero4 and provides a lot of great features. Simply having a screen, the speech options, GPS, etc. I really prefer it over the Hero4! The video looks great and the mount is compatible with all the GoPro mounts. I like this camera, but I'm not sure if can gain any traction with the new Hero5 here.The original $500 price point was a big mistake in my mind. Because as soon as the Hero5 was announced they had to lower the price by $100. I'm sure that made people who already bought it mad and it makes it look like it wasn't selling and they had to lower the price. I'm not saying it wasn't worth $500. The touchscreen is really nice and all the sensors are great. But you don't come in as the underdog and try to match the top dog's pricing.The battery life isn't bad--you get about the same battery life as the Hero4. But if you start to use all the extra features, you can cut the battery life in half. I understand that you do get the same battery life without the features. To see all the cool features and then to find that you can't really use them is disappointing. The longest recording time is important to me so I turn all the extra stuff off. There's no information on what reduces the battery life by how much so I'm going to really have to play with it to figure this out and that's a pain. I like the gps, but how much will that reduce the battery?The "3 axis" stabilization is pretty good. I didn't read up on things and actually thought it was optical stabilization. But it's just digital stabilization. You loose a little bit on the sides as far as the field of view, but it's still full 1080p. It only works up to 60 frames per second and 1080p. For on road bike rides, it really smooth it out. For off road really bumpy, it does a good job but it also seems a bit fuzzy.But the general video quality is great--equal or slightly better than a GoPro. The still quality is great. I'm really happy using this to take video. I can't wait to try it underwater.The sound quality is also really good. They did a great job of making the mic work through the case too! That is a big problem with the Hero4. But again, the Hero5 is waterproof without a case and has three mics so the Hero5 can actively pic the mic with the least wind sound... I've not heard how the Hero5 sounds in the case yet. So this Garmin may still have better in the case sound.The biggest problem has nothing to do with how great a cam this is, but that the Hero5 is equal or better than this in most ways. And the few features that the Hero5 doesn't have aren't interesting or may kill battery life. Even though I really like this camera and I'm going to be using it for recording a lot of stuff, I'm not sure why I should tell you to buy it over a Hero5.

I love this, I have bought two
This is great. I have bought two for myself. One for home and one for work. I also bought one for my daughters boyfriends last Christmas. He likes it a lot and still uses it everyday. I highly recommend. You would not think something so affordable would be good, but this is.

I purchased the Torchstar as a yard light. I went through 3 halide lights is past 10 years. Halide bulbs cost me 32 dollars and last about 14 months. The Torchstar is simple to wire and mount. Seems to be quality construction. It's about 2/3 as bright but should last 11 years.

I wish I bought 2 on Prime Day!
This lamp is amazing! I wish I ordered 2!! I bought it for my office at work, I really hate the overhead fluorescents. The lamp not only has 4 different types of light, you can dim or brighten each setting. Super customizable! I love it! I haven't used the usb charger yet, but I'll try it next week. Take my advise, buy 2 when a sale hits!

I've recently begun filming tutorials with my iPhone and positioning my phone hitting record and getting myself into position was wasting a lot of time and memory, but the CamKix remote fixed all that. I position my iPhone, I get into place an with a click of the button I am making great videos.
