Best Entry-Level Radio for New Hams
I purchased this radio primarily for emergency use (during natural disasters such as Harvey) and, secondarily, to begin a new hobby as a ham radio operator. Up until six weeks ago, I had never heard of BaoFeng or BTECH. Nor did I think it was possible to begin a new hobby relatively inexpensively. While I study for my Technician's license, I spend time listening to the different operators in Houston and reacquainting myself with ham "lingo." Sound quality is good and battery life in listen-only mode is excellent. I've already purchased the high-capacity 3800 mAH battery and a short stubby VHF/UHF aftermarket antenna. With the built-in flashlight and ALARM function, you will be hard-pressed find a more suitable communications device for emergencies. And the frequently-updated CHIRP programming software makes it easy to customize the UV-5X3 for your personal needs. Bonus: access to the 220 MHz band.

Best lock
I did a ton of research and comparing different products. This is by far the best thing I have invested in. I have a duplex and will be purchasing one for the other side for my 75+ old mother in law. Don’t have to worry about going back next door to get a key and can lock people out you don’t want to have access anymore.

Best Area Light Imaginable for The Price
Absolutely amazing light for the power it consumes. I have it at 14' and I can actually work outside better now than I did with the old $150 metal halide fixture. I will be buying more of these to replace my others soon. The only thing I noticed was that the pre-wired cord could be a little longer to give you room to work, but the function of the product still makes it qualify for 5 stars

Great Product !
It is a very sleek and beautifully designed product. Very easy to connect. I have few more YI camera which I use for office use and had no problem with it, cameras are extremely user friendly and easy to setup. Only thing that did not like was that When I recently purchased 1080p Home camera pack of 4, one of the camera sound was not working. I have contacted YI customer service (Ticket No 147506) for which I had exchange lot of emails to get it changed, and they did give me a replacement. Would recommend this product, more then my words it is the quality of the product that will give your 5 star satisfaction.

Big things come in small packages
I was a little hesitant to buy this because of the size. I did want something smaller than the average Bluetooth speaker. This little thing pulls the punches. It sounds awesome to be so small. In my opinion it sounds even better when you put it in the case it comes with. I live in a small condo so it’s perfect. I like that it comes with a case that you can hang up.

He’s in the Coast Guard and this watch is perfect
Bought it for my husband for Christmas. He’s in the Coast Guard and this watch is perfect for him. It’s water- resistant and very durable. I did get a tempered glass screen protector just to be safe. The only thing he didn’t like was having to take apart the watch to charge it. We easily fixed it by buying a different charger

Stability
The media could not be loaded.
I really liked this device. It makes videography a lot more professional and enjoyable even if you’re not a vloger. I tried this video stabilizer at the state park where I live and it did a great job despite the high wind. The only thing I didn’t like about was that the part of the device was in the shot when I turned it 180 degree to do a selfie.

Big Head Friendly
Riding on my tractor mowing my 7 acre yard. These headphones worked great. They fit my big head almost perfect. The only thing I did not like were the ear covers. For my big head and my big ears they could have been just a little bigger. But for the average size head you will like them.
