Tom C
MemberNot sure why everyone’s overthinking it. Timer goes from 1 to 12 in full hours, so 2 is fine. Works like you’d expect.
Tom C
MemberI feel like people overthink the draft thing. It’s a spot heater, not a HVAC system. If you sit near it, it’ll keep you warm even if the room has a leaky window.
10 de July de 2026 at 22:20 in reply to: WaveMax for an older TV without built-in digital tuner? #4957Tom C
MemberConverter box should handle it. That’s literally what those things are for. I’d be more worried about the WaveMax’s range claims than the TV compatibility.
7 de July de 2026 at 17:51 in reply to: Does Dustaclean really pick up pet hair okay from car upholstery? #4703Tom C
MemberDepends how deep your seats are. If the hair is just sitting on top, it’ll grab it. If it’s ground in there from weeks of driving, that brush attachment isn’t going to dig it out.
4 de July de 2026 at 14:17 in reply to: How often do you actually take your dog for a haircut? #4485Tom C
Member6 weeks seems like a money grab to me. I let mine go until the fur actually bugs me or him, which is usually closer to 10 or 11 weeks too.
3 de July de 2026 at 19:50 in reply to: Does rain-x stuff actually make cleaning windows easier? #4433Tom C
MemberI gave it a shot on my windshield once and wasn’t really impressed. Maybe I just didn’t care enough to notice a difference.
3 de July de 2026 at 06:06 in reply to: Ryoko Pro still worth it if I mostly stay in one country? #4385Tom C
MemberI don’t get why people keep calling the global roaming overkill. It’s still a solid portable router even if you never leave your city. The data saver mode cuts down on usage anywhere, not just abroad, and the battery life alone makes it worth grabbing for coffee shop work or whatever.
Tom C
MemberPretty sure it’ll show you if the dog is on the couch. Mine picks up shapes and movement fine across a normal living room, but don’t expect to see what color the dog is.
28 de June de 2026 at 09:18 in reply to: TP-Link RE700X: Does it work with non-TP-Link routers in access point mode? #4032Tom C
MemberAccess point mode doesn’t care what brand your router is, so you’re fine. I’ve used TP-Link extenders with Asus and Netgear gear before without any issues. Just plug it in and it works.
27 de June de 2026 at 22:41 in reply to: Logitech MX 3S on Linux – any quirks without Logi Options+? #4013Tom C
MemberI wouldn’t worry too much about it. Default settings cover basic office work just fine, and bluetooth pairing is straightforward. Only thing you really lose is the side button shortcuts, but if you don’t need those it’s basically plug and play.
25 de June de 2026 at 12:54 in reply to: Does the Qinux Klampero actually keep the angle consistent? #3839Tom C
MemberI’ve got one and honestly the angle guide is fine if you just take your time with it. It’s not gonna hold itself perfectly if you’re rushing or forcing the file, but that’s on you, not the tool. For basic touch ups between proper sharpenings it does what it needs to.
Tom C
MemberOffline mode is fine for basic stuff but don’t expect it to handle a noisy airport bar or anything. I’d rather just use my phone’s data if I’m honest.
20 de June de 2026 at 12:16 in reply to: Black Falcon Drone 4K at 60fps, or is that just marketing? #3477Tom C
MemberI haven’t bothered checking the file properties on mine, but it’s smooth enough for quick clips around the yard. If it’s not true 60fps, I can’t really tell the difference in good light anyway.
Tom C
MemberThe lenses are clear, so you’ll still need sunglasses. The audio cuts through wind fine for me, but traffic noise will drown it out if you’re near a busy road. Not a dealbreaker if you’re just walking around town, though.
Tom C
MemberI think people worry too much about the pause. If you’re doing short business check-ins it’s not really an issue.
11 de June de 2026 at 20:07 in reply to: anyone tried the Qinux BitBip 89 with an older non-4K TV? #2813Tom C
MemberMine looks fine on a 1080p set. No issues, just plays the games.
11 de June de 2026 at 12:41 in reply to: Does the Glokore Therapy Mask feel comfortable to wear? #2785Tom C
MemberIt’s fine. Straps hold it where it needs to be and it’s not some heavy thing you’re balancing on your nose. People overthink this stuff.
11 de June de 2026 at 07:12 in reply to: Aptofit blood sugar tracking – anyone actually checked if it works? #2764Tom C
MemberI think it’s probably fine for general trends even if the numbers aren’t exact. I wouldn’t stress over it too much.
Tom C
MemberMine’s been fine so far. Lid still feels solid after a month of daily use. Maybe yours just needs a bit more wear to settle in.
9 de June de 2026 at 10:53 in reply to: StopWatt green light stays on but anything actually happening? #2609Tom C
MemberIt’s probably fine. Green light just means it’s getting power, not that it’s magically saving you money. If your bill hasn’t changed, you’re not missing much.
8 de June de 2026 at 14:50 in reply to: Qinux FelinStop vs old ultrasonic repeller, is the LED light actually useful? #2548Tom C
MemberI had the same thought when I got mine, but honestly the light is probably more for visibility than anything else. It’s not gonna scare off a raccoon by itself, but if the ultrasonic part is actually working, the light might help keep them from getting too comfortable. I’d say the solar charging is the bigger selling point, not the LED.
5 de June de 2026 at 20:28 in reply to: Guardality vs my old foil sleeve – any real difference? #2367Tom C
MemberBit of a pain swapping cards between wallets if you carry more than one, though. The sleeve just stays where it is.
3 de June de 2026 at 05:24 in reply to: Does the Black Falcon Drone actually handle wind okay? #2124Tom C
MemberI think it’s probably fine if you’re not expecting too much from it. I’d personally rather just wait for a calmer day to fly than deal with shaky footage, but that’s just me. For a cheap travel drone it does what it’s supposed to.
Tom C
MemberI think maybe the sensitivity just isn’t that great on the lower end. Mine seems to catch some quieter ones but not all, so it might just be how it works. Not totally sure if your unit is off or if that’s normal.
31 de May de 2026 at 15:44 in reply to: Is the AiraBreeze supposed to make that noise when the water runs low? #1942Tom C
MemberIt’s just the pump running dry for a second. Not a big deal. I let mine run out all the time and it still works fine.
Tom C
MemberI think it probably does use less water just because you’re not blasting it wide open the whole time. I got one mostly out of curiosity and it cleans fine for what it is. Not totally sure it’s some huge water saver but it’s not worse than a regular nozzle.
Tom C
MemberIt’s not exactly rocket science. You run it over the moss, it comes off, the bricks are fine. Don’t overthink it.
Tom C
MemberIt’s the same frequency, so yeah it’ll block NFC tags too. Not really something to stress about unless you’re trying to tap your whole wallet against something on purpose. It’s a non-issue for most people.
28 de May de 2026 at 20:27 in reply to: Does an anti theft backpack actually help in a crowded bus? #1699Tom C
MemberI have one and honestly it works fine for me. The hidden zipper is on the back panel so nobody can get to it without you noticing. It’s not magic but it does the job and I feel less paranoid on the bus.
27 de May de 2026 at 10:51 in reply to: Rear speakers placement for a soundbar with subwoofer? #1590Tom C
MemberRight behind your head is probably going to be annoying for anyone sitting in the middle. I’d just mount them higher up and angle them down a bit, that’s what I did and it worked fine.
