I mean, it’s not like you have to charge it every day or anything. I just plug mine in when I remember and it’s usually fine. Seems pretty standard for this kind of thing.
Oh I actually looked into this exact thing before buying mine. Access point mode works totally fine with any router, you just plug it in via Ethernet and it handles everything on its own. I’ve got mine hooked up to an old Netgear and it’s been running for months without a hiccup.
I’ve noticed mine makes a soft clicking sound when it first kicks on, but after that it’s just a low hum. I’m not super sensitive to noise, but I’d say it’s fine for an office. What I actually like is that I can set it on the desk and not have it blasting right in my ear.
I feel like people overthink these little dryers sometimes. I’ve used mine for a few cashmere-blend scarves and they came out totally fine, not shrunken or weird. I wouldn’t stress too much unless it’s a really thick hand-knit thing, but for normal wool sweaters it’s probably fine.
I haven’t used mine in a proper breeze yet, but I figure as long as you don’t set it up like a giant sail it should stay put. I’d probably just stake the bottom corners if I was worried.
I haven’t tested it much on TV yet, but I’d probably just keep it plugged in to be safe. Not totally sure if it drains way faster, but I don’t love the idea of it dying mid-race or something.
I mean it makes sense that it would use more battery since it’s doing the whole translation thing on top of everything else. I used mine for a 30 minute conversation and it was fine, still had plenty of charge left after. The case charges them up so fast anyway that I never really worry about it.
I don’t think I’ve ever really tested the ultrasonic thing properly, I just kind of turn it on and hope for the best. The light itself is good enough that I keep using it even if the bug part is a bit questionable.
I’ve got a dark gray car and used it on some light scuffs near the door handle. It didn’t make them vanish completely, but it definitely toned them down enough that I don’t notice them unless I’m really looking. Worth a try for the price.
I’ve used mine for some fairly quick back and forth in Spanish and English and it kept up fine enough for me. I think people get a bit too caught up on the delay, it’s not that noticeable unless you’re really trying to rush.
I’d probably just plug it in and see, but I guess the picture might look a tiny bit softer or something? Not really sure how the scaling works on those.
I guess it depends how soft your mattress is. Mine’s medium firm and it works fine for me, I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything.
I run mine in the living room during the day and honestly haven’t paid close enough attention to the bill to say for sure. I do notice it uses way less power just from how often the compressor kicks on compared to my AC though. Hard to beat that when it’s just me and I don’t need the whole house freezing.
I think it probably depends on how much you use the manual mode too, not just the self-cleaning. I’ve only had mine for a couple weeks so I’m not totally sure yet.
I think people overthink pillow height a bit. If you’re used to a flat one it’ll feel different at first but you get used to it.
I don’t have personal experience with the ice hardening thing, but from what I’ve read it does seem to help keep the edge a bit longer than standard blades. For daily cooking you’d still probably want to touch it up every couple months, but that’s normal for most knives in this range. I know a couple people who use theirs as a go-to and they’ve been happy with how it holds up over time.
I picked up a pair mostly for the headlights and they do help with those, but I honestly didn’t notice much difference with the streetlights. They’re still pretty bright to me, just maybe a tiny bit less harsh. Still, I think they’re worth it for the overall comfort on a long night drive.
I just plug mine in whenever I remember and it’s never been an issue for me. The battery lasts long enough that I don’t feel like I’m constantly charging it. It’s one of those things that works fine if you don’t overthink it.
I think it depends a bit on how lazy you want to be, honestly. I started with just the app and it was fine for the first few lights, but once I had more than three it did get a bit annoying having to open my phone every time. But for one lamp from the couch, you’re probably fine just sticking with what you have for now.
Thanks everyone for chiming in! I’ve been using mine for a few days now and honestly, it’s been fine for my needs. I just charge it overnight and don’t stress too much about the exact hours. Appreciate the reassurance!
