I get wanting it to last longer, but mine drained pretty normally for what it is. You were shooting clips and photos, so I would expect around half a day, not a full one. These little cameras just don’t have huge batteries. I’d carry a spare power bank if you’re out that long again.
If you go in expecting a curated library, you’ll be disappointed. If you just want to plug it in and have a bunch of old games to mess around with, it does the job. I’d guess about half of that number is actual distinct games, and the other half is filler, but for the price, I don’t think that’s a dealbreaker.
I’ve had mine fog once and it was purely from leaving it in a hot car and then dunking it. If you let it sit out for a few minutes before sealing it up, it’s usually a non-issue. I’d rather have that than a case that leaks.
I’d lean toward waiting until they’re a bit older, like 5 or 6 months. At that age they’re still mapping out what barking even means, so the device might just teach them to associate noise with a weird sound instead of actually learning when to be quiet. That said, two weeks in and it’s working, so it’s not like you’ve done damage.
I’d just try it and see. For the price it’s probably worth a shot if your corner is that bad. I think it’ll feel decent up close, but don’t expect it to cool the whole cube.
I don’t know, I tried one and the medium setting still had a bit of a whine to it. Not as bad as an old blade fan, but not silent either.
I just use tap water in mine and it’s fine for a desk. The ice thing seems like more effort than it’s worth for a few minutes of slightly cooler air. If you’re sitting right next to it, the water alone does the job.
Adding games via USB was simple enough for me. The save stuff I haven’t really bothered to figure out, just kind of roll with whatever works.
I think it’s pretty easy to wipe down. The outside is just smooth plastic, so buildup on the head itself isn’t really an issue. The internal filter is the part that needs replacing eventually, but that’s just swapping a cartridge, not scrubbing anything. I wouldn’t call it more hassle than a normal one.
I’d just try it with the brush attachment and see what happens. That’s what I usually do on fabric and it grabs enough for a quick clean.
I think people overthink this. It worked fine on my hood that had been sitting in the sun for years, looked way better after. Not showroom perfect but it’s not supposed to be.
