    Enormous latency. Product set up was easy. However, if you think the product is going to be used painlessly, I’ve ran into several problems. First - I have a high speed network that is super stable. I’ve checked wifi signal to the device and it is immaculate.I can have someone ring my doorbell, it will alert me no problem, but there is a 55 to 1:36 second delay from when I try to view the camera to see who’s there. Was expecting a little much from the product I guess.And it’s not a large home it’s attached to, whole house is 900 square feet, and there is a single wall between the router - so it’s not a connectivity issue nor a electrical interference issue. I can reliably connect to my wifi from the edge of the driveway with zero problems, and signal strength at 80%.Update 6/20/2024 Was a faulty unit! Latency has improved after RMA. Thanks again Kevin!
    Well, it works like it said it would. In the process of automating my home, and finally got around to adding a video doorbell. Awhile back I decided to go with amazon, mostly because the non-internet version (hubitat) I settled with was too involved a process to set up, and required more attention. I'm gone alot, and have a truckload of things to do when I get home, so I literally don't have the time to mess with something like that. Enter Alexa's repertoire of things I can utilize. Since I'm already subscribed to pretty much everything amazon has, may as well just go all in, right?Anyhow, item came in a day early (surprising, since I live in the middle of nowhere) along with my tp-link mesh system. Pretty much doing a tech overhaul at my house. Got rid of Starlink (great service, but support sucks in general) since spectrum entered into the area and signed up with them. Starlink uses just a single wireless router if you don't want to spend more $ for additional hardware. And then there's other issues I just didn't want to subject myself. I digress.... Set up the mesh system, got spectrum running, and started connecting things.First thing was the doorbell. This to me is still a novel thing. Yes I know its been around for awhile now, but remember, i'm doing a tech overhaul here. Didn't bother with such things before, nor cared too much about em. So, after some thinking, I installed it at the traditional place (front door), and used the wedge to angle it a bit to catch the front sidewalk. Connected it to the mesh system (took a minute, as I was unfamiliar with the system). It pretty much installs itself. It's all run off the phone as far as configuring and whatnot. You WILL be required to install the blink app. It's not part of the amazon app. Not sure why, ask Jeff about that one. Sync module is a no brainer, just follow the directions.Here's the interesting part. I don't need yet another subscription, so I opted out of the cloud storage thing. With the app, you can pull clips off the sync module using your phone, and do whatever you want with them anyhow, don't need a sub to get it. Save yourself a few dollars and go the route I went. Get a usb stick. HOWEVER, I didn't get a usb stick just for the sync module. I have a microsd storage card (350 gig) from my previous phone that I couldn't use in my new one (fold 5), so it just sat around being randomly used as a transfer tool between pc's. So why not use it as storage for the module? Well, I plugged it into a sd card multireader and stuck it into the module... AND IT WORKS. Amazon states max is 250, but I've got an extra 100 gigs with my microsd card :)Will tech support help if it breaks down? Doubt it. The research I did says that although higher capacity cards may or may not work in the module, support is limited to cards with a max of 250 gigs. Not sure how that works out, but I don't write software so whatever.Long story short, camera works great. Fiddle with the sensitivity though. I set it too high (lvl 7) and got alerts from the clouds going by. Dropped it to 6, but its too dark to tell if that helped. In the end, i'm happy with my purchase. Quality is great, and does what it says it's supposed to do. Good luck!
    Improvement Over Google Nest Doorbell. I recently decided to replace my Google Nest Doorbell which I have been using for several years now.As much as I wanted to love the the Nest, my experience with their products, or actually their Home App to control their products has been less than desirable.Besides being fussy with reconnecting to WiFi when it goes down for more than a few minutes, Google has a bad habit of releasing app updates that cause their devices to either no longer connect to the network, or refuse to connect with their servers and thus require the devises to be uninstalled and reinstalled to the app.Let's just say this is a long and arduous process that does not always work (like recently) and in many cases my Nest devices become unusable until Google decides to release a new app that corrects the problem (which can take weeks or longer).So after reviewing a number of other devices, I settled on Blink because it offers an option for storage/live access that does not require a monthly subscription.Installation, setup and use of the Blink doorbell so far has been easy and the only issue so far is the slight delay in receiving motion/doorbell ring notifications and the time it takes to pull up the live feed sometimes.Love that the device uses long life disposals AA lithium batteries instead of a non-replaceable rechargeable battery. Once I replace my old doorbell chime & transformer, I will likely wire the doorbell to it so it uses the battery for backup power.Next will be to add some of the Blink Outdoor Camera 4 to my system and seeing how these work over time.

    Compact, Well Made, Sturdy, Durable. Great serge protector neat, compact, well made, like that it stands up on kitchen counter out of the way compared to other long serge protectors having a short cable. Plus having regular USB ports and the newer USBC ports to accommodate newer phones avoiding the hassle of buying more chargers. Out of the way. Convenient especially when using more then one appliance at a time and not enough outlets. Only drawback, USB Micro port is hard to insert cable. Made to fit half way. Make sure to turn on after plugging in green light will appear. Excellent value. 5ft cord makes it easy to use anywhere. Keep mine on kitchen counter. Only complaint, too many cables and wires to deal with phones, lights, computers,printers, appliances. This is definitely a handy tool to have around and a keeper.
    Almost Perfect. This is a well built, attractive power strip. The top, widely spaced outlets address and accommodate the multiple transformers that are the modern way of powering our accessories. The top outlets are smartly placed so the wire tails coming off the transformers do not interfere with neighboring outlets. Having additional outlets placed on the sides of the box proved to be very handy for non-transformer ac plugs. The USB outlets (4) are very convenient although I must say that a modern day power strip is not to be taken seriously if it did not have them. The square footprint breaks away from the typical foot long / 3" wide design but it works for my specific situation that I have right now. I would like to see them offer another model which addresses the foot long / 3" wide footprint; I am confident it would be the same high quality build and fit. I welcome the cloth braided cord which is easy to straighten out so it lays neatly against the wall behind furnishings. I detest using a vinyl power cord (haven't experienced plain rubber used in years) that has been wrapped up so tightly for shipping that it will not lay correctly on the floor. I mean, we buy extension cords and power strips to install our electronics in a neat manner, right? There is not a cord used in my house (TV, radio, lamp, Alexa, coffee pot, toaster, Bullet etc.) that is installed all curled up. I straighten each one before installing with a heat gun. I place as much of the coiled up cord in a large metal saucepan and use my heat gun to relax the cord and straighten it out (the metal pan contains the heat but prevents hot spots while warming the cord). I find if the product has gone through cost cutting via the bean counters of the manufacturer, the more likely the power cord suffers and ends up being cheap, stiff, vinyl. Here however the manufacturer realizes that the cord is an important element in the overall design and uses cloth covered braid. The internal wire insulation is of course some sort of vinyl / rubber blend to meet safety standards I am sure but it is flexible and can almost be entirely straightened out without warming. I have braided, cloth covered cords that are round and also flat as in this power strip. Either one works well but I prefer the round style which lays neater and coils better. This brings me to my one nit-pick. Even though my 5 star rating does not reveal it, I do not feel that my nit-pick should prevent someone from buying this otherwise well designed extension power strip. My nit-pic is about the power plug that goes into the wall outlet. It is the flat type (good) which hugs the wall enabling you to have that dresser tight up against the wall while avoiding any damage to the cord if a traditional “straight” plug was implemented. On this particular flat plug, the braided power cord comes down off the bottom of the plug at an angle and not straight down. It is angled to the right which is great if your extension box is to be placed to the right of the outlet but not so good if the box is placed to the left of the outlet. Having a flat type braided cord instead of a round braided cord, it presents a kink in the wire @ the plug location. It would be a welcomed improvement if the braided power cord came straight down from the plug and if they used a round versus flat braided cord. Hey! Not a big deal to most people but this is a review, right? So, there you have it. For most people, an extension cord is “just an extension cord – get over it”. But for those (like you reading this right now) are interested in knowing how a product is designed and performs, I hope I have described it to your satisfaction.
    Compact and Powerful. Put this on my standing adjustable desk, the cord is long enough to allow me to adjust the desk without issue. Plenty of options to power everything I need for the desk. Delivers on everything I needed.
