MemberThe safety guard helps, but I still found myself hovering over my kid the whole time. It’s more about the angle you hold it at than anything else, and the small nails do fit fine, it’s just slow. I think it works, but don’t expect it to be a set-and-forget thing.
1 de August de 2026 at 16:01 in reply to: Does the Herz P1 Smart Scale actually track trends well or is it just a gimmick? #6269Mike in NYC
MemberI’m not totally sure if the trends are the selling point or if it’s just the novelty of seeing all those numbers. I got it mostly because I was curious about the segment stuff, like whether my left arm was somehow different from my right, which sounds dumb now. But the app does keep a clean little graph for weight and body fat, and it’s kind of nice to scroll back a few months and see that things are moving in the right direction even if the daily numbers bounce around.
The one thing I’ll say is that if you skip a week, it doesn’t punish you or make the graphs look weird. It just picks up where you left off. That’s more than I expected from a scale at this price. I wouldn’t base any health decisions on the exact readings, but as a way to keep an eye on things without thinking too hard, it does the job.

MemberMine makes that click too, I noticed it the first night. Doesn’t really bug me though, I just figure it’s the unit finishing up whatever it needs to do. It’s quiet enough that I barely hear it anymore.

MemberI’ve been using mine for a few weeks now and I’m getting pretty close to the 14 hours. I think it depends a lot on how often you run it on the higher setting or if you leave it outside in cooler weather.
22 de July de 2026 at 16:15 in reply to: How does Translattia handle switching between languages mid-conversation? #5719Mike in NYC
MemberNot totally sure about automatic switching every single time. I’ve seen it miss a language change if someone speaks pretty fast or mumbles a bit. Still works fine for the most part, just something to keep in mind.

MemberI can’t really say for sure since I haven’t used it in a big room, but in a small office space it should be fine. The whole instant heat thing is probably a bit of marketing, but if it’s warm within a couple of minutes that’s good enough for me.
18 de July de 2026 at 21:48 in reply to: Qinux BitBip 89 wireless controllers any good for bigger hands? #5474Mike in NYC
MemberI think the size thing gets blown out of proportion a bit. I got bigger hands and they never really bothered me, just feels like a standard smaller pad.
16 de July de 2026 at 20:20 in reply to: DappSmile vs old manual scraper — anyone else notice the difference? #5337Mike in NYC
MemberI used a manual scraper for years and the DappSmile took a minute to get used to, but honestly I don’t think it’s that deep. It cleans fine, the vibration is whatever, and my teeth feel the same either way. People overthink this stuff.
14 de July de 2026 at 21:07 in reply to: Can the Nunawave Oral Care Pro be used if you have braces? #5206Mike in NYC
MemberI’d lean toward using it now if you want. The mouthguard is flexible enough that it should fit over braces without much trouble, and the red light can still get through to your gums. I think the bigger question is just whether it feels comfortable to you with the brackets poking out a bit.
10 de July de 2026 at 09:24 in reply to: ResQVac suction strength question for anyone who’s used it #4906Mike in NYC
MemberI get what you mean. I haven’t used mine on a real blockage either, but I figure if it can pull hard enough to leave a mark on my arm it’s probably doing something. I’d still rather have it and not need it than wonder during an actual emergency.
5 de July de 2026 at 15:17 in reply to: Does Repellio work on mosquitoes too or is that just marketing? #4556Mike in NYC
MemberI think it’s legit for mosquitoes. I’ve got one in the kitchen and another in the living room, and I’ve noticed way fewer buzzing around at night compared to last summer. Not saying it’s a force field, but it definitely took the edge off for me.
Mike in NYC
MemberI figure if you’re mostly worried about it dying mid-clean, you’re probably fine. I’d just charge it up before you start and not overthink it.
1 de July de 2026 at 14:08 in reply to: Does the AiraBreeze actually cool or just feel like a fan with mist? #4277Mike in NYC
MemberHonestly, I think people overthink these things. I’ve got one in my apartment and it definitely makes a difference if you’re sitting near it, especially on a humid day. It’s not gonna cool the whole room like an AC, but for the price and noise level, it does what I need it to.
29 de June de 2026 at 22:34 in reply to: CarbonOne Safe vs old plug-in CO detector: does the display stay on all the time? #4163Mike in NYC
MemberI wouldn’t worry too much about the brightness, it’s pretty low-key. If you’re really sensitive to light while sleeping you could always just face it away from the bed.
26 de June de 2026 at 13:06 in reply to: Is the WellHeater supposed to be silent when it’s running? #3907Mike in NYC
MemberIt’s not completely silent, but I’d call it quiet enough that it wouldn’t bug me in an office. The fan makes a soft whir, but it’s more of a background sound than a constant hum. I’ve had mine running while on calls and nobody noticed.
25 de June de 2026 at 19:15 in reply to: How well does the Qinux Talkbuds handle fast speakers? #3862Mike in NYC
MemberI’m not sure it’s as smooth as people say. Had a call with a friend who talks a mile a minute and it kept cutting out mid-sentence. Could’ve been my connection, but it wasn’t great.
21 de June de 2026 at 18:09 in reply to: Glacier Breeze battery life claim with the ice chamber? #3571Mike in NYC
MemberI doubt the ice chamber is doing anything to the battery, it’s literally just ice sitting in a tray. The fan does all the work, so the battery drain is probably just from running it on a higher speed without realizing it.
Mike in NYC
MemberI’d probably just try it on a hidden spot first, like under the seat or inside the fairing. That way if it does mess up the texture, you’re not stuck looking at it.
20 de June de 2026 at 13:11 in reply to: Parking mode on DashOne Pro — does it drain the car battery much? #3480Mike in NYC
MemberHonestly I think it depends more on your car than the camera itself. Some cars have 12V ports that stay live even when the engine is off, so that’s where the drain would happen. I don’t think the DashOne Pro pulls enough to be a problem unless you’re leaving it for days without driving.
Mike in NYC
MemberI just wear mine with sunglasses underneath on really bright days, which looks a bit silly but works fine. Audio cuts through city noise alright for me as long as it’s not a construction zone or anything.
17 de June de 2026 at 06:14 in reply to: BareEarth Grounding Mat for better sleep or just placebo? #3223Mike in NYC
MemberI’ve had mine for a while now and honestly never really noticed much either way, but I did stop waking up with restless legs as often. Could be a coincidence though.
13 de June de 2026 at 09:57 in reply to: Does NuraFix leave any kind of residue on plastic trim? #2908Mike in NYC
MemberI mean, I used it on some plastic trim near my door handle and didn’t have that problem. Maybe you just didn’t buff it enough.
Mike in NYC
MemberI mean, I wouldn’t overthink it. Could just be the angle messing with the cable connection more than anything else.
11 de June de 2026 at 18:48 in reply to: SynGas learning time – does it reset if you stop driving for a while? #2808Mike in NYC
MemberFrom what I’ve seen, it’s not like it forgets everything. More like it just needs a few drives to recalibrate after sitting.
