I’d just aim it vaguely toward wherever the animals usually come from and call it a day. From what I’ve read, the sensor isn’t like a security camera that needs a perfect angle. It’s more about picking up motion in a general zone. I’d probably point the front toward the fence line or the garden entrance and make sure nothing is blocking it too much.
The bigger thing is the solar panel, honestly. If you stick it somewhere shady, it won’t charge well and then you’re stuck with a useless little post. So I’d put it where it gets sun for most of the day, even if that means it’s not perfectly aimed at the yard. Better to have it charged and slightly off-angle than facing the right way and dead by evening.
I wouldn’t stress over precision. Just get it roughly facing the open area and let it do its thing.
That’s interesting, I’ve seen a few people mention that. I usually just make sure the buds are out of the case before I open the app and it seems to help. Maybe it’s a timing thing with how the Bluetooth wakes up.
I think people overthink this a bit. As long as you get the straps snug enough, it’s not gonna go anywhere. I’ve worn mine for a few hours at a time and never had to mess with it. Maybe I just got lucky, but it’s really not been an issue for me.
Honestly I’m not sure the pouches and the spray are even trying to do the same thing. The spray felt like a temporary fix, whereas the pouch is more of a set it and forget it deal. I never really cared about the smell lasting, I just wanted to stop having to remember to spray stuff.
I think it’s probably just the new surface being extra smooth at first. Mine felt a little slick with raw chicken too but it seemed to get better after a few weeks of regular use.
I’d actually say the hydrophobic part holds up longer than I expected. I’ve washed my car maybe four times since applying it and the water still beads up pretty well, not perfect but definitely not gone. I didn’t buy it for that though, I just wanted the scratches less visible and the shine is what surprised me most.
I’ve got bigger hands and I was a bit worried too, but honestly they’ve been fine for me. I mostly use them for quick sessions of Mario and Tetris and haven’t had any cramping. They’re not super premium feeling but they do the job for casual play.
Honestly, I think people are overthinking this. It’s just a couple of AAs, not some weird specialty thing. I’d just grab whatever’s on sale and not worry about it.
Honestly, the listen and repeat mode is kind of fun even if you’re just messing around by yourself. I think it picks up most stuff fine as long as you’re not mumbling.
I think it’s probably fine for a patio, honestly. As long as your water pressure isn’t terrible, it should handle most of the usual grime without much hassle.
I don’t think you need to overthink it, just put it on snug enough that it stays put. Works fine for me.
I think it makes a small difference but nothing dramatic. I mainly like how water beads up and rolls off when it rains, feels like it keeps the window a bit clearer during a downpour. For cleaning, maybe it helps a little but I wouldn’t rely on it.
I haven’t had mine long enough to really judge yet but so far it seems fine. I just plug it in when I notice the battery is getting low, which hasn’t been that often. Not something I’d worry about too much honestly.
I mean I feel like I noticed it a bit when I first switched but honestly I got used to it pretty fast. The lack of smell is what keeps me using it.
I mean, it probably drains a bit faster since it’s driving a bigger screen, but I wouldn’t overthink it. If you’re already sitting there with the TV on, just plug it in and don’t worry about it. Not really a big deal either way.
I’ve used it in a few louder spots and social mode didn’t really blow me away, but it didn’t make things worse either. It’s kind of just okay for background noise, not a miracle fix.
I was looking at these too but I’m still on the fence. I feel like with evaporative coolers you really have to sit right in front of them to feel anything, otherwise it’s just a fan with extra steps.
I keep seeing people say it’s only good as a personal fan, but for a small bedroom that’s kind of the point, isn’t it? I’m thinking about grabbing one just to have something pointed at me while I’m trying to sleep.
Eh, I wouldn’t overthink it. If it’s not pinging or knocking, you’re probably fine just saving the cash for your commute.
I think a lot of people expect it to work like a GPS, but it’s really just Bluetooth. So if your bag is far away, you’re not getting a live location. I’d probably still use it for the peace of mind in case it gets lost nearby, but not for tracking it across the airport.
I keep going back and forth on this myself. The Black Falcon looks like it’d be perfect for just tossing in a bag and not worrying about it, which is tempting for travel. I’d probably go for it if the camera is good enough for quick clips and I’m not expecting to do anything serious with the footage.
Honestly, it’s not that deep. I’ve had mine sitting on a shelf across the room and it still moves air around fine. You’re not going to get ice cold air either way, so just put it wherever it fits.
I think you can use your own SIM in it, but the whole thing seems kind of geared around their own plan. Not totally sure if there’s any annoying locking going on though.
I don’t know, I feel like if you’re worried about it snagging you’re probably overthinking a bit. I clip mine to a zipper pull on the outside and it’s been fine so far. It’s not like it’s dangling loose.
I think it might just be a coincidence honestly. My dog never acted any different when I had mine plugged in, and I ran it for a few weeks straight.
Honestly, I barely notice the finger hole on mine. I think it’s just there for hanging, but I’ve never actually used it for control or anything. The knife itself works great for me, so I wouldn’t worry about it too much.
Honestly I just use the app for a couple of bulbs and it works fine for me. I don’t really want to mess with a hub unless I have to. As long as I can turn off the lamp from my phone I’m happy.
Honestly I barely even notice it in my bag. I was worried at first too but it just slides in and takes up way less room than I expected.
I figured it’s made to be left plugged in, so I just leave mine in. The self-test thing probably needs power to run properly anyway.
