XACT Visor Sirius Satellite Receiver and Remote with CAR and HOME kits - BXTR3CHK Review

I put a Visor in my car as a replacement for my other Xact receiver, which was moved inside permanently after I got the boombox for it.
It's a cool little unit that has a bright, readable, flippable display and it takes about 4-5 minutes to set it up in your car. I went with the cassette adapter instead of using the built in FM transmitter, due to volume levels as well as the chance for interference from other vehicles. The transmitter worked well when I had it turned on, and gives you the bonus of being able to broadcast the signal to second car (as long as it stays close). It's perfect for road trips, and can be easily hidden or taken along if you're in an area that you don't want it showing. The only reason I took off one star is the display is pretty small, and, even though I can see why they did this, having only one knob to set everything up is a bit of a pain in the [..]. Otherwise, this is a great starter satellite radio if you want to get the feel of what all Sirius has to offer. Dropouts are few and far between, but you can't go crazy with it and park under a bridge for any length of time, but driving under one isn't a problem for me at all.
I absolutely LOVE Sirius and will not go back to terrestrial radio even if you paid me Howard Sterns' money.

i ordered this a week or so ago, and just got it today, to see that it was not the item that is shown in the picture. all i got was some cheap looking radio tuner, with a adapter for the car, and a slot for 2 batteries. does not have a docking station and nothing to charge the ipod, let alone hook the ipod up to it, hopefully i will get my money back, but after seeing what i got sent, im not holding my breathe on it

Sony DRBT22 Wireless Stereo Headset Review

Sony DRBT22 Wireless Stereo Headset
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Works with iPhone 3G/GS with caveats (see update below).
Just bought these along with the TMR-BT8 iPod adapter. Pairing is very easy. While the headphones are off, hold down the power button for 7 seconds or when the pink and blue lights are blinking. The pairing code is 0000.
In addition to my 5th gen iPod, I also paired it with my Razr V3xx and Thinking T61p. No problems at all and the sound is as clear as with my wired headphones. These headphones do not have very much bass but it's much better than average in-the-ear types. The treble range is pretty good and better than average as well. Wireless range is very good, as long as there aren't too many obstacles. I was able to go at least 40 feet away with no cutting out at all. Simply amazing. Other features include controlling devices with the jog dial and volume buttons, which I was able to do with all 3 of my devices. I have not tried making or receiving a call from them yet but I don't perceive that I will have any problems. But with all the good, there's always a little bad. The control buttons do not feel firm and makes the whole thing seem fragile. In general I am careful with my electronics so this will not be a problem. I could see using these at the gym but I wouldn't drop them or place undue stress on them. This one is minor but the charger looks like it was designed to be compact but the prongs do not fold in and away. I could see traveling with these headphones on a business trip and being able to drop it in my laptop case would've been nice. And lastly, at this price, they should've included a case, preferably a hard plastic one.
Pros:
1. Easy pairing between devices
2. Very good wireless range
3. Intuitive controls
4. Battery life seems to be very good so far
5. Clear sound with no cutting out
6. Better than average sound quality
Cons:
1. Seems a little fragile
2. Prongs do not fold in on compact AC charger
3. No case included
UPDATE (8/11/08):
Now that I've had these headphones for 8 months, I found out that I can pair my phone and iPod simultaneously. I can be listening to the iPod and when a call comes in, the iPod pauses, and I can take the call. Once the call is over, the iPod resumes playing.
UPDATE (11/5/08):
These headphones work with my iPhone 3G but with caveats. First, you must use the Sony TMR-BT8 iPod adapter. You CANNOT just pair through the iPhone's built-in bluetooth AND you must not have it set to "on" before using the Sony adapter. It's probably best not to have bluetooth turned on at all. Second, you must have the adapter in and be in iPod mode before turning on headphones or they won't pair up. Third, you can get phone calls but they will not go through the headphones. And as with all previous iPhone accessories, you will be told that the adapter is an older accessory and may not work, do you want airplane mode. Just select "no" and don't worry about it. I think I covered all of the caveats. What is nice is that you can use the A2DP functions of the headphones like play/stop/FF/RW and volume, you will hear the phone ring in the headphones, and the music will resume once your call is over.
UPDATE (9/28/09):
iPhone ONLY. Now with the 3.0 firmware upgrade, there is no need for the Sony TMR-BT8 iPod adapter anymore. However, while you can play/stop music, you do not have prev/next or reverse/fast-forward functions. I recently upgraded to the iPhone 3GS and still no go on those functions. Hopefully this gets fixed in a future firmware upgrade.

Sennheiser ME 2 - Microphone Review

Sennheiser ME 2 - Microphone
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Sennheiser ME 2 - Microphone is used with a SK 500 G2 body pack transmitter.
-
We use several evolution wireless systems at a local University. It's a great system BUT the ME 2 microphone cable is so very fragile that we have a lot of failures.
-
A thicker (and maybe even a shorter)cable might solve th problem. The cable failure requires purchases ($112 to $195) of new microphones far too often on a limited budget. This microphone should be designed with a replacement cable in mind.
-
The Radio Shack Cardioid lapel microphones ($24.99 Cat. 33-3013)is a cheap solution until the Sennheiser cable problem is resolved.
-
We have had no failures of the Radio Shack microphone cables so far. It works okay (with the 357 battery removed) clipped to your tie but not to your lapel due to it's limitation in directivity.

Was very happy to get this so quickly. I had a different model installed earlier by a professional when we got our car (it had the ability to watch TV, but was not hooked up). Anyway, the screen was broken at the hinge and I was waiting for a replacement part. Well the part was on back order, so finally I just ordered another model. It was cheaper to get the one w/o the TV, so I did. This was so easy to install and it works great! Our kids enjoy watching movies again!

Roadview RHM-9.0G 9-Inch Headrest with Built-In DVD Player (Gray) Review

Roadview RHM-9.0G 9-Inch Headrest with Built-In DVD Player (Gray)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First I want to note that the image provided by Amazon is for an older model; take a look at my pictures or look at the Roadview website (this may get corrected).
I am very pleased with this product. I have owned it for a month or so and just got back from a 3800 mile road trip where it was in use constantly. I installed it in a 2008 Hyundai Entourage.
Pros: It came with every cable needed (including an adapter for the mini front input). The built in FM modulator worked well. The built in speakers were adequate for the seat directly facing the screen (the volume had to be turned up a few notches from full when at 70 miles a hour - I suppose this is very vehicle dependent). The post fit in standard holes perfectly and you could still adjust the height (it came with several adapters to adjust the fit if needed). The screen is pretty good quality and is still easy to watch even in the middle of the day. I loved the zipper cover, which when closed makes the headrest look stock to the casual observer (or thief) and protects the screen. The remote works well and the controls are easy to use. The headrest blends in well, is made from quality material, and the angle is adjustable (to help people of different heights see the screen better).
Cons: The biggest fault I had with this unit is the documentation is very vague (for instance: even though the FM modulator setup is straightforward, it is not even listed in the instructions). For the most part I was able to spend a few minutes playing with everything on it and I just tossed the instructions anyway. The other thing I noted above is the built in speakers are a little weak. There was also one instance where we had to open and close the DVD door latch to get the "door open" warning to clear from the screen so the DVD would play - this only happen once over a three week period, but I thought I should note it.
Conclusion: I am really happy with this product and I would recommend it. I compared it to several others before buying and I am pleased with the price given the screen size and features.
Other Notes: This unit has a companion screen which it can share its video output with through an included cable (if you want to save money by only having one DVD player): Roadview RHF-9.0G 9-Inch Headrest Monitor (Gray). It can also accept a video input from an additional source (in addition to the front input), which is great if you want to plug in a game system. I am only noting these features, because I found them while researching this unit, but have not actually used them.
Install Tip: I only wanted a semi permanent install so I removed the seat back ran the power wire below (the power and video wires are in the post) and spliced it into an old 12 volt cigarette lighter adapter which I plugged into the van's power point (so if needed I could easily swap it to another car, just by unplugging it).

The B&W Panorama sound bar was my first choice but pricey at $2300. A friend of mine who manages an high-end audio store and familiar with both the B&W and Yamaha lines suggested I look at the Yamaha 4100 specifically. It had more features and was almost $700 less. I took his suggestion and have been extremely happy with the YSP-4100. After upgrading the 4100's firmware to the latest version 7.0.3, 3D HDMI pass thru from my Samsung 3D Blu-Ray to Samsung 3D TV also worked properly.

I purchased this in January to use with my Nikon D80. I am just now getting around to use it and it does not work. This is not a Nikon product. This one is a KT-ML-L3 not a ML-L3. I plan on purchasing the ML-L3 that Amazon sells for $19.99. Don't waste your money on this one.

For photographers, sometimes there is the need to take a picture without jostling the camera in any way, and for Nikon digital SLR users, the Nikon ML-L3 Wireless Remote is the way to do it. Take a picture without disturbing the focus and keep the camera completely steady by using a wireless remote. It may be that you need to be included in the photograph such as in a family portrait. Or, you may need to position the camera in such a way that the subject will not be disturbed by your presence. Whatever the need, a wireless remote is best for the task. The slim design of the wireless remote triggers the shutter without disturbing the position of the camera, so you get perfectly focused photographs without a hint of vibration every time you use it.

Dice i-Mazda/Mazda 3 & 5 /Protege/Tribute/ IPod Adapter w/ Aux Audio Input Review

Dice i-Mazda/Mazda 3 and 5 /Protege/Tribute/ IPod Adapter w/ Aux Audio Input
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this unit for my '07 Camry with Navigation after DICE Electronics assured me that it was compatible. While I guess you could say that it works with my stereo/nav unit, it's so unreliable that it is almost useless. I go on long drives and listen to a lot of audiobooks on my iPod. If I make a quick stop, upon restarting my car, I often find that the book (or podcast, or song, or whatever) has been reset back to the beginning. If I didn't happen to notice the exact hours and minutes of the audiobook, I have to search through it to find my place. Very annoying and a real time waster. It also randomly pauses my iPod without me touching it, then restarts it again a few seconds later. It is capable of displaying the title and track name from the iPod, but then inexplicably blanks this information out. If I switch to map view and then back, the info reappears. If I disconnect and then reconnect the iPod (and who wouldn't, as that's kind of the whole point of having one), the DICE unit makes the iPod "forget" my place in the playlist. Upon reconnecting, it will always play the same track, out of the 10,000 or so on the iPod. I mean, I like "...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead," but I'm damn sick of hearing the opening of that one song. Finally, I should mention that when I sent this complaint via their online system, it took 6 weeks before anyone even posted a "say, did anyone ever help you with this?" When I answered in the negative, I never heard another word. Apparently, they don't care if they have unhappy customers. Do yourself a favor, buy a VAISTech unit instead. It does the same thing, and while the reviews have been mixed, they have been far better than the DICE's.

I just got this Dice Ipod Adapter for my 2003 Audi A4 and I can't believe how easy it was to install. The hardest part was taking out my radio (which is pretty simple if you have the radio removal keys). Installing it was incredibly easy!

Since the miniITX boards came out the fans of game platform emulators like MAME and multimedia centers like MythTV have come up with hundreds of designs for a small multimedia computer with living room appeal. It was all very exciting, but I was always wondering why no company would create such e device and sell it for a reasonable price.
Finally, here is the eeeKeyboard and it is perfect. I love the design, the performance is just good enough and the best thing is the wireless HDMI interface.
I know that it does not have a lot of power when compared to the multi-core >2GHz CPUs that you get in laptops at a similar price today, but this was never the idea. I can connect this keyboard-sized-living-room-friendly computer to my home TV and surf the Internet from the sofa. I can run MAME and play a game and I can also watch video. Of course it is not 1080p and Quicktime runs slow, but my sofa is too far from the TV to notice "low quality" when I play a "low-resolution" movie (and most of the movies I have are "low" resolution).
I love this computer because I have been wanting something like this since the first 533MHz miniITX board (yes, you can play videos even on this type of system).

iLuv I701 Digital FM Radio Transmitter (White) Review

iLuv I701 Digital FM Radio Transmitter (White)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
iLuv is relatively small and thin. Easy to carry around, will fit almost anywhere. Uses standard 3.5mm stereo audio connector. It is in no way iPod specific. I guess it has "i" in the name because every cool device these days has "i" in the name. You can use iLuv with anything. Laptops, MP3 players, Walkmans, CD players, anything standard. And with iPod too. Of course, if your device has non-standard connector (most mobile phones for example) you are out of luck.
It uses AAA batteries, which is not really a good thing. However, given that device is too thin for AA batteries, I'm not going to hold it against it. BTW, may I suggest rechargeables to everybody who bitches about price of AAA batteries. There is a 3V connector on it, so you don't need batteries if you have 12V to 3V adapter for car. I just got iLuv today, so can't really comment on battery life. It's been turned on for the whole afternoon with used batteries (that I pulled out of my old FM transmitter), and it still works.
It covers the full FM frequency range in 0.1 MHz increments. You can set it to virtually any unused FM slot. As far as I can tell, it stays at the dialed frequency and doesn't "pollute" reception of nearby stations (translated, your neighbors will not hate you). However, the range is very limited. You probably want to keep it no more than 10 feet or so from the antenna of your radio. If you are looking into buying it for use in car, this is not a problem. Tested. I placed it at the worst position in car, furthers away from antenna, and the sound quality was still good. If you want to transmit to the room on the other end of a house, you'll be very disappointed. It simply doesn't have enough juice for that.
There's some audible white noise when there's no input signal, but not any worse than some other devices I had in my hands. Don't expect miracles from something in this price range. If you'll be using it in a car (use most folks are buying this devices for), don't worry about it at all. Even if you have very quiet car, you won't notice this at all. On the other hand, if you are audio perfectionist, you'll probably have to spend much more money for something better.
Conclusion. iLuv is no worse then what I read in reviews for most other FM transmitters. It is way better then my old Radio Shack branded one.

Our dealership had this installed in our 2009 Kia Sedona as our entertainment package. They work great and look pretty good. They are a little darker, but not really noticable. They work well and make long travel much more pleasant. The kids can watch their movies and I can listen to music. We had 2 installed so each child can watch their own movies, but their wireless headphones work on each dvd player so if they want to watch the same movie they can both hear. The build in cover looks great when it is zipped up hiding and protecting the dvd player. This is a great product!

GE 51135 Indoor Outlet Receiver with Keychain Remote Review

GE 51135 Indoor Outlet Receiver with Keychain Remote

I have used this outlet switch for 4 years in my remote outbuilding. The receiver has performed flawlessly. The remote, not so much. I carry the remote in a front jean pocket and it attracts lint and dust/dirt inside the unit. After a period of time, the inside of the remote becomes so full of "stuff" that either the battery doesn't make contact inside the remote or the switch is unable to make contact when pressed. The keychain connector is very thin plastic and it broke after about a year of carryiing.
Make the remote more sturdy and better sealed, and this would get "6 STARS" from me!!
