Might depend on what your TV does with the second port. On mine the soundbar stayed on its own port and the stick went in the other one and audio still went through the bar, no swapping. Worth checking the audio output setting once before you assume it won’t work.
I got one mostly for the heat and vibration after long shifts, and the stiffness relief has been pretty mild for me. The traction is what I actually feel, which surprised me since I don’t have any disc stuff going on. So I’d say it’s not overkill, just maybe not the big loosener I expected.
I’ve been using the same basic power bank and cable for my dog’s tracker for a couple seasons now. It still works fine and I know where everything is in my bag. A fancy new setup would just be more stuff to keep track of.
Mine sat in the garage for probably two years before I messed with it and it still had a decent charge. I just used a little USB adapter thing and it charged my phone fine on one trip. Not saying I’d leave it plugged in overnight though.
Stretching is the one that stuck for me. I just do a few minutes on the floor before bed and that’s it, no app or timer involved. It’s easy to remember because my body starts feeling tired on its own after a while.
Mine actually stayed put on the angled bar near the top of my tent, which surprised me since I figured it would creep down overnight. I knocked it once while getting up in the dark and it just tilted a bit and held. That said, I did notice it sticks way better to the frame than to the little metal plate on my cooler, so surface matters more than I expected. I still clip the carabiner as a backup when I remember, mostly out of habit. If your frame is thin or coated it might be a different story, but on the bare section of mine it’s been solid for maybe three weekend trips so far.
Leaving it in isn’t a big deal. I popped mine in when I got it and only pull it out to charge. Shed gets cold here too and it’s been fine. The click is pretty straightforward once you line it up.
Mine doesn’t even work while plugged in, it just cuts off after a few seconds. Not sure if that’s normal but I’ve just gotten used to charging it first.
Mine still blasted a decent strip on my concrete steps even though our tap is nothing special. Maybe your hose is the weak link instead of the nozzle. I’d check that before blaming the Jetterix.
Mine clicks when it switches over and I hear it from the window, but the birds at my setup don’t scatter. They just keep eating. The camera itself doesn’t seem to register with them at all.
My dad has the same kind of beat up grates and his stainless brush definitely added a few more scratches over time. The GrillWizz spins though, so it’s a different motion. I’d probably test it on a corner first if you’re worried.
Small ears here too and fit is usually hit or miss for me. I don’t have these myself but I borrowed a pair from a friend for an afternoon, mostly sitting and talking, and they stayed in without me fiddling with them. That’s more than I can say for a couple of other buds I’ve tried. The tip size matters more than anything, so if the stock ones don’t work there’s usually a smaller option in the box. Walking around should be fine based on what I felt, maybe not for a run though. I didn’t test that.
I have mine on a small table next to my couch and it’s been fine for a few months. It doesn’t really need to be mounted unless you want it out of the way.
Thanks for the replies, guess it’s just hit or miss with birds then. I’ll leave it running since the cats are staying away and call it good. Appreciate the input.
Mine screwed on fine but I did have to hold the arm steady because it moved a bit when I twisted the new head on. That was the only hiccup. It still went on without any adapter in the end.
Mine actually got worse after the first couple weeks, not better. First few charges seemed fine and then it started dropping fast enough that I stopped bothering to keep track. I thought it was just me using it more, but I was running it about the same amount, so who knows. I ended up just charging it every other night now instead of waiting for it to die, mostly so it doesn’t quit in the middle of something. Not saying that’s normal, just what happened with mine.
I gave one a shot last season after my metal blade kept throwing rocks through a window. For normal yard grass and overgrown patches it does the job fine, feels a bit different at first but you get used to it. The wire strands do wear down faster than I expected though, so it’s not like you buy it once and forget about it.
I just put them near entry points and corners rather than counting per room. One pouch tends to go dead quiet in a bigger open area, so I’d add another if your kitchen stretches out.
Mine lives in a backpack side pocket most of the time, not even a wallet, and honestly the accuracy is all over the place. Sometimes it shows the right building, sometimes it thinks I left it at a coffee shop three blocks away. I’ve learned to treat it more like a “last known area” thing than a precise dot on a map.
The one time I actually needed it, my bag was in a friend’s car and Find My showed it at their house, which was close enough to figure it out. But if you’re expecting to be like, “oh it’s under the seat on the left side,” that’s not really how it works. It’s more of a neighborhood-level location for me.
For a wallet specifically, I’d just keep your expectations low. If it’s buried in a purse or a jacket pocket, the ping can lag pretty noticeably. It’s fine for knowing you left it somewhere, but not for pinpointing the exact shelf it’s sitting on. I’d still grab one if you misplace things often, just don’t rely on it being super precise.
Mine runs noticeably warm if I leave it on for a couple of days straight. Not hot, but warm enough that I noticed it when I unplugged it to move it to another TV. It still works fine, but I wouldn’t call it “cool” by any stretch.
I think a lot of that depends on the color of the tablet honestly. Mine is dark so the sticker just sort of disappears into it. I’d probably be more annoyed if I had a lighter colored device. As for textured backs, I haven’t had an issue, but I also didn’t put mine directly on the tablet.
Appreciate all the input on this. Sounds like it’ll handle the cafe fine as long as I do my part and don’t mumble into my coffee. I’ll give it a try next week and see how it goes.
