Strap has enough room for a hoodie, but the heat is the part I’d think about. You’ll feel it less through thick fabric, so if that’s the main reason you wear one, it might not do much for you.
Good to know it’s at least there. A slider that barely does anything is still better than nothing, but I’d want to hear from someone who’s actually parked near trees for a month before I count on it.
Is the motion detection actually adjustable on this thing or is the parking mode just one fixed setting? That would be my concern before buying. Trees setting it off constantly would get old fast.
One thing that helped me was setting my main sleep window as a fixed block on the device, not chasing every prompt. It still nudges at odd times, but at least the sleep tracking lines up with my actual routine instead of assuming I sleep at night. I tried fully remapping the guidance early on and it was too much fiddling for the payoff. The fixed block is the one small change I kept. It does mean some prompts land at weird hours, so I mostly glance at the weekly view rather than the daily cues.
I’ve had both and the dryness complaint followed me either way, so I wouldn’t buy the ceramic one expecting that to change. What did change for me was how fast the room felt warm, which matters more when you’re only heating one room. Mine’s been fine for a couple of winters, though it’s a small space.
I get what you mean. I’d want the offline languages spelled out before buying rather than left to trial and error on a trip.
The way it usually shakes out for me is the router keeps the connection alive after I log in once on my phone, so my laptop just joins the router’s network and gets online without seeing the hotel page at all. But that only held up while I stayed in one spot. When I moved rooms the router dropped the hotel signal and I had to redo the login on the phone before everything else worked again. So it saved me from doing it on every device, just not from doing it whenever the connection reset. For a short stay that’s fine. If you’re moving around the hotel a lot, expect to repeat it a few times.
Wall mount by the switch is cramped but it works if you get one of those slim swivel brackets. My wife and kids actually check ours because it sits right where everyone drops keys. Downside is glare from the hallway light in the evening, so a matte screen protector helped a bit.
If the shape feels weird but not painful, that’s pretty normal for the first stretch. I’d base the decision on your mornings instead of the feel at bedtime. If you’re waking up with the same neck tightness after a couple weeks, that’s your answer.
I just swap to a battery trimmer when the grass is wet. Not because of the shock risk exactly, I just got tired of dragging a cord through mud and wet clippings. For the corded stuff I only bother when it’s dry.
I’d hold off on assuming it’s pain. My dog did the same thing at 9 and it was mostly him becoming a homebody, but a simple blood panel still gave me peace of mind. That’s the one thing I’d do rather than wait.
Mine held on a horizontal bar fine but slid down the slanted pole in my tent. If your frame is vertical you’re probably okay, otherwise the carabiner is the safer bet.
The hiding under the bed part is normal, but I wouldn’t camp out in the room trying to coax them. My cat did the same thing after a move and I made the mistake of checking on him every hour. That just kept him spooked longer. Once I left him alone and just went about my normal routine, he came out on his own after about four days. What surprised me was that he adjusted to the new place faster than I expected, but he was still jumpy for a couple weeks after that. So hiding is one thing, being fully settled is another. I didn’t buy any special calming stuff, just kept his old blanket and food bowl in the same spots. That seemed to matter more than anything else.
The UV part is the one claim I’d treat as a bonus at best. I used a similar spray on my old truck that sat outside all day, and after a couple months the hood still faded the same way it always did. The water beading was the only protective thing I could actually see, and that stopped after a few washes. So if you’re reapplying mainly for sun protection, I’d say you’re probably just wasting product. The scratch filling is the real reason to keep a bottle around, and even that fades. I still use it on my current car for scuffs but I don’t count on it for anything long term. If sun damage is your main concern, a real wax or sealant will do more than any of these spray scratch fillers.
I don’t think it’s the right tool for that. Dust just gets blown around and settles again a few hours later, so you end up chasing your own tail. Mine mostly just pushes the dirt into the corners.
I used a knife with a hole years ago and gave up on it after a week. It never stopped feeling like my finger was in the wrong spot. Some people clearly love it, but I would not force it if your old knife still does the job.
I grabbed a couple of my old favorites off a USB stick and they showed up after a reboot. Not instant, but nothing broke. I’d say go for it if you have the files handy.
I switched from a hose nozzle to a JetClean a few months back and the difference is real. The spray actually has some bite to it, so mud and road grime come off without me scrubbing half as long. It’s not a full pressure washer, but for quick washes it does the job fine.
I bought this scale mainly for the body composition stuff, so the heart rate was kind of an extra to me. I compared it with my watch a few times out of curiosity and it wasn’t ever spot on. I figure as long as it’s in the same ballpark, it’s doing its job for a quick check. Not something I’d lose sleep over.
The beech wood handle is the only thing I’d question long term. Mine has seen a lot of sink splash and it’s fine, but I also don’t throw it in the dishwasher. The blade itself is just like any other stainless knife. I’d say buy it if you like the feel. The handle is the one thing I’d say to pay a little attention to.
