Bike Lights Front and Back Set By BluPond® review

I received this light combo set at no expense to me for my honest unbiased review.
 
So I am going to talk about the parts,  how they work and if they work correctly.
 
The case: A
So as soon as you get it you will notice the special carrying case it comes in. As soon as I got a hold of it I dropped it and I was so disappointed thinking nice just broke it. Yet to my surprise the case only opened but wasn't damaged at all and everything stayed in place. The inside of the case is made of a foam type substance with cutouts for the items. Very similar to an entry handgun case. This material protects your items and holds them in place easily without scratching. Although the clips that hold the case aren't real tight but not lose; I would prefer tighter but that wouldn't let you have easy access.
 
The flashlight:A+
So when you get the flashlight you will see it is inside the clip or adaptor that you will use to put on your bicycle. I wanted to see if and how easy it would be to take out the flashlight from the adapter. Turns out it is very simple. The light 2 main ways to adjust the amount and way you get light. If you rotate the top part called the dimmer you go from a small sized very bright light stream all the way to a dull large stream. Which will work great depending on the terrain and weather you are cycling through. The next way to adjust is by tapping, Not clicking the power button, you will have 3 settings bright, dim and then flashing. All of which worked great. I liked that they included 2 power options, an adapter to use AAA batteries and a rechargeable large battery (which had some charge already which was nice to be able to try it out immediately). It is made in a hard metal casing like most high end flashlights. It comes with a strap so you can carry it also you can clip your keys on it when you ride. I am not sure what the metal tip at the base is for but I already imagined that I could use it as an emergency tool to crack, break,  split something.
 
The back light: A+
One of the mayor concerns of any cyclists is being visible on the road. Honestly reflectors are not always effective. So it's awesome that this is part of the kit. The back light has multiple light bulbs and various settings. Of cause there is on and off but there is a variety of pulsating and left to right lighting patterns which no one will be able to ignore. This back light also projects spacing lines at the back of your bicycle to mark safety lines people should respect to keep you and them safe. I found it comical that these lines also pulsate with the back lights. Very lightweight and simple to remove from the bicycle adaptor by pushing the button.
 
The accessories: A+
Rechargeable battery- works well
AAA adaptor for flashlight- nice backup power option.
2 AAA batteries for back light- included
USB charging cable for flashlight- awesome option for people like me who have portable power banks to have their electronics function for longer periods of time.
Car charger cable for flashlight- works for charging up the light on the go.
Mounting adaptors for lights- work well, stay in place and do not damage to metal it grips onto (I scratched up a shotgun with a badly thought up adaptor for my hunting light)
I have to say even though it is not as inexpensive as other options you do get great value for the price. I give this a 5/5 rating I definitely love it.  I will update this review if there are any issues. I honestly plan on using this light for hunting and fishing too because I like it that much.

WAVEstream Universal Portable Wireless Speaker Bluetooth Sound Bar w/ Conference Call Speakerphone Capability by Rebelite Review


I received this Bluetooth sound bar speaker in exchange for my honest unbiased review.
 
 
This speaker has a very unique style it reminds me of a 50's household retro look. It is made out of a very sleek soft material even almost feels fuzzy. One of the best things I liked about it is that it will link easily and automatically after the first time you sync it to your device. It's nice not having to re-sync the connection every time I use it. The buttons are well made and sturdy. The metal mesh in front is well made and isn't sharp at any of the edges. Not only does it handle your media but also your phone functions like calls. It works  clear on calls and it doesn't lag or break up. Simple on/off button in the back with sturdy power in and Aux out connections. I like Rayburn has a separate phone button to answer and hang up calls. It has a good weight to it that will keep it in place. Although it is not the loudest Bluetooth speaker I have tested it is still pretty loud 8-9/10 in loudness. When increasing and decreasing volume and you reach the extreme high or low it doesn't screach like others instead it cuts the sound briefly to indicate it has reached a limit.
 
 
The negatives about the speaker in my opinion are few but may make a difference. The material that covers the speaker can easily collect or pick up dust/dirt. You can only stand it up one way,  by this I mean it can be put on it's side like some of the block style speakers.  Lastly I have to bring up the only thing I consider a real downside which is that if you go full volume you start to get a little bit of static showing up.
Based only on it being a speaker I would put it at "I like it" or a 4/5 star rating because of the small static at Max volume. Yet I have to consider and add points for the phone functionality and excellent Bluetooth connection and bump it up to "I love it" so overall 5/5.

Signature Touch 6-in-1 Versatile Stylus Pen by Rebelite review


I received this multi-tool stylus pen in exchange for my honest unbiased review.

That being said truly useful and convenient product. Almost everyone has a touch surface on our phone, table or computer so we all want to find a good stylus.

The things I found I really liked about this pen are so many but here are a few.
I liked that the stylus actually worked and that stylus tip is not hard and not too soft. It also seems to be secured very well unlike some other ones I have had that ripped off after a few uses. The pen clip part is very strong and well made which makes it very portable. The pen writes well and is easy to take out and hide again. The top part that hold the stylus will unscrew to allow access to flathead and star screwdriver part (It is super awesome that when you unscrew the stylus you don't have hold it and hope you don't lose it; you can actually screw on top of the pen tip). You can switch from one to another easily and it doesn't slip out when you lift it. The shape of the pen allows you to have a good comfortable grip for you to get good use out of the screwdriver function. Its nice to have a ruler both in inches and centimeters already integrated in the pen. The level works I don't see any problems with it, but it will definitely be useful for household task. It has a very nice weight in between a heavy pen and a light tool.

I give this multi tool a 5/5 despite me not liking the yellow color (it is available in silver and black). This would be a great tool for any handyman/woman or someone who works in any kind of construction or office.

Summit Survival Paracord 550 Survival Grenade Review


I received this paracord grenade at no expense to me in exchange for my honest unbiased review.

So since I got this item so I can review it I decided to take it apart and actually check it out and see everything it has.

So first thing I checked was that it had everything, and yes it did. Nothing was missing, it was just nicely packed inside the knots.

This grenade was made in the king cobra stitch pattern. For those of you who don't know what that is, simply said it is a pretty intricate pattern that has a lot and I mean a lot of loops and ties. The reason I mention this is that it took forever to actually undo enough of the paracord to reach the twine and cutting blade/saw in the middle. I actually got bored once I was like 25% done undoing it. I do realize though that it is stitched this way in order to protect the twine and keep it dry. So in reality it is understandable just not very practical for someone that actually needs to use this grenade in a survival situation where they are low energy, maybe dehydrated, or cold/wet. Now let us talk about the striker and stick, I am by no means a boy scout so I was glad that even I was able to intuitively able to use it and get it to produce sparks that if I put over/near the twine should ignite it. The saw/blade definitely works, I used it to cut a piece of the paracord and it cut it with just a bit of effort. There seems to be enough twine inside the grenade for you to start a fire for survival. Then I was truly surprised with the amount of paracord is actually included. The description says more than 5 feet, but from what I undid there was definitely at least 15-18 feet of paracord which is awesome. The clip also seems reliable enough for you to hook things on it to hold off the ground and to pull some things with it.

There is definitely a variety of things you can do for survival with the use of the supplies in this grenade. Considering this is a survival kit and not an emergency kit I will not take off points for the long time to undo the paracord. This is a survival kit that compacts a variety of tools for you to survive with minimal bulk. I would give this a 4.7/5 rating based on quality, price, and practical use.

Protekme IPhone 6 case with stand and clip review and giveaway


I received this case at no expense to me in exchange for my honest unbiased review.
 
So today I will be talking about the Protek-me iPhone 6 case. I have mentioned this before on other case reviews and I will say it again.  We use to have such a variety of cell phones before that it was easy to be unique or different just based on the cell phone model you have but nowadays it comes down to half the people have an iPhone then the others have an Android. A lot of the time you will have the same phone as others,  and there is where cases come in.  A case not only add functionality and protection but it personalizes your phone.

 
So what you will get is the case with the clip on attachment. So this case isn't very complicated as far as user friendliness is concerned although I do have some concerns on the actual materials/construction. By this I am referring to when the case was first taken out and it slipped and fell the back hinge fell out (I thought it had broken,  but thankfully no).  This does however bring concern that it will easily slip out easily again and maybe get lost or damaged. I have had an iPad and Android case with a very similar system that broke the flimsy ends off and no longer could be propped up. This although seemingly bad/concerning is not actually a huge deal. 
Let me now tell you about some of its good features. First off it's very simple and effortless to put on and remove the case which is a big plus if you are like most users and have many cases.  Next I have to say that all the connections and buttons have plenty of space for you to click and connect things to without adaptors or tricks. People like me with big fingers hate having to use our nails because we cannot access the buttons. The textured case combined with the smooth edges make a nice balance in this phone between slick and rough. That will let you grip and also slide your phone in and out of your pocket without issues. The front plate locks to the case and the clip grabs on well. The stand is designed to let you prop up your phone vertically or horizontally. I definitely feel more confident using it sideways because the phone has more support for it's own side and because when we watch things on our phone we want full screen.  I imagine vertical would work great for music playlist, reading,  or especially cooking. The case is fairly thin and overall well built except possible the hinges on the stand. There is minimal bulk unless you use the front clip. 
All things considered including the price I definitely think this phone is above a 4/5 but not a 5/5.

Product Testing- How to start and What sites work #producttesting #product #tester

I stumbled upon product testing randomly one day while looking on the net and I started joining sites and looking for more and better ones. So I wanted to make a post here to help others know which one I know work and what kind of things you can receive. #1 choices usually have the most frequent opportunities as well.

Product Reviews (full product no need to return)

#1 Tomoson- Tomoson.com

This site is by far the best site to receive and test products. It has a variety of sellers and products that can be for any type of reviewer. Most promotions are filled through amazon so they do prefer/recommend you have Amazon Prime so you will not have to pay shipping. The majority of the promotions are free or a small % of the cost of the item. Items I have received are pills, cream, charging blocks, cases, Bluetooth speakers, balaclava/shemaghs aka mask items, fitness gear, art supplies, headphones, and other items. It will be a little more work than a few other sites but you get to try and review a lot of items and often. It also has a messaging system built into the site. Also there is new promotions almost daily.

Requirements:
 (A blog or Amazon account is the minimum, up to Facebook, instagram, twitter, google+, youtube, blog, amazon and linkedin)
There is a variety of requirements to get accepted/invited for a promotion and this is set by the seller and not the site. Most Common requirements is having 100 facebook and 100 twitter friends. Although it can be as easy as making a blog post on your blog all the way to make a post on facebook, twitter, linkedin, youtube video, blog post, and amazon review. It will depend on the requirements of each promotion which are posted before you apply. Some will have larger follower/friend requirements but that is also posted ahead of time.

#2 Amazing Deals Group- http://amazingdealsgroup.com#sthash.MyTSGfOy.cmfs

This site is a large discount product review site. You can at max be reviewing 2 items at a time. Everything on here is usually 1-3 dollars instead of their full price. This is because the seller is offering them to you at this discounted price for your honest review on Amazon.com. It is recommended but not required you have Amazon Prime so you will not have to pay for shipping. There is usally about 8-12 promotions available at a all times. Electronics, beauty items and gadgets seem to be the most common items you can receive.

Requirements:
Leave a review on amazon.com

#3 BZZ Agent- http://u.bzz.com/lha7g

This site is survey intensive at the beginning so they can figure out what you qualify for. Once they get an idea if you are the right type of tester for on of the products they will send you an invitation to participate. They will ship to your house and set up a variety of things you can do to review/recommend the items you are trying. A lot of the items you will get through them are new to the market or about to come out so its like early adopting. A lot of the things they deal with are gr
This is ongoing for now I will keep adding.

Requirements:
None

Beta-Testing (Get compensated with gift cards or products)

#1 Betabound http://www.betabound.com/ Betabound (formerly Centercode) has a lot of beta testing opportunities for apps, software, electronics, websites, even cell phones. This site is like the main page for all the opportunities, when you get invited for an opportunity you usually end up in a different site than theirs (don't be alarmed its still them but they seem to have set up personal sites for each company like GoPro, ZTE, Netgear etc). I have participated in about 4-6 projects off of this site its awesome but you have to realize a lot of the things are beta products and you will have to sign and adhere to non-disclosure agreements. Compensation is pretty good, and dealing with new products especially technology is awesome.

Sample sites:

#1 Swaggable- https://swaggable.com/
If you like samples this is probably the one you want it is not as hard or as time consuming as the others and you do have high chances of getting picked to test things out.

Smiley360- https://smiley.socialmedialink.com/home
A lot of surveys not enough invites/promotions waste of time in my opinion

Influenster- https://www.influenster.com/
It makes you fill out a lot of information and tries to get you to put reviews for things you already own to get you accepted into a campaign. Social media intensive and dependent. I tried 1 campaign with them but it was hard to complete and so much work to get a sample.


Other sites
ExpoTV- http://www.expotv.com/
It is legit but doesn't do too much offers and you have to do video reviews. I do not think its worth your time and effort especially since it looks like its dying.

HomeProductTesting- http://homeproducttesting.org/
It is a discount product testing site mostly. It is simple to set up and use, but it is up to the seller to contact you arbitrarily if you want to get their product.

Giveaway Service- https://www.giveawayservice.com/
This site seems like tomoson in a lot of ways but I have not been able to be approved for any promotions yet so I cannot say if it works or not.

Toluna- https://us.toluna.com/
This is has so many surveys to fill out and you get points which seem like a lot but you cannot actually get almost anything for them except entries into their random drawings and they say they have some samples to give out for reviews but I never got anything. Way too much time investing on surveys.

Pinecone- Pinecone Research – USA
This site use to have a good reputation for rewards and product testing but for the months I used them it was just huge surveys that you got nearly any points for and never any opportunities to test anything.

I am currently testing other sites and opportunities and I will keep this updated feel free to comment or add more links.

AguaForma Two Shemagh Military Tactical Scarf Set


I received this pair of shemaghs at no expense to me in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Well first for those of you who don't know what a shemagh is, it is like a handkerchief or a bandana except much bigger.
So in essence is a piece a cloth you can use or fashion for all your needs. These tend to be associated with desert cultures and military groups since they sport them so often. Uses range from fashion all the way to protection from the elements. Anyways what you will get is 2 shemaghs one is OD green and the second is a desert brown. You can use one at a time or combine for greater protection and warmth.

Pros:
This one measures around 3.5ft by 3.5 ft which allows people like me with big heads to use them no problem.
It is a very versatile item that you can easily look up uses and styles.
The material is very soft and doesn't irritate you face.
It has a nice pattern
It will help keep you warm and dry
It can help filter the air if there is too much sand, moisture or smoke.
It has many survival uses so I think it would be great for any camper/hiker/survivalist out there.

Cons:
When unfolded the material is very thin so I would be aware not to overdo it.
They are so large that it will not be something you easily carry in your pocket, although if you are going to take it with you it will likely be on you already.
Because of the current options only 2 it may not be your "cup of tea" although hunters, fisherman, bikers, military personnel and many others will love these 2 designs.

Based on all I have mentioned and considering although minor concerns the CONS, I would give these shemaghs a 4.5/5 rating.

AguaForma Multi Sport Hood ~ Mask Set Review


I received this product at no expense to me for my honest unbiased review.

This is my first experience with a balaclava or gaiter, but I was excited to get these and try them out. These are ideal for outdoor sports, for weather help, and for your hobbies like hunting and fishing. I would give this a 4.5/5 rating only because of the limited size.

Pros:
Super comfortable
Nice material
You get the balaclava and 2 different gaiters
The gaiters stretch and compress well without harming or making you feel uneasy
You can use the gaiters for various uses not just neck warmers, beanie, liner, hand warmers, and as protection from impact or rubbing when carrying items.
They will add protection from the elements/weather
They seem to be very well made
Made of very soft comfortable material.

Cons:
The balaclava is a bit small for big heads like mine 7 3/4 but it still fits ok just a little bit tight and head piece is a tad bit short.
Some of you may not like that there are logo tags but you can flip inside out to resolve that.

Ipad Air Screen Protector Tempered Glass for Ipad and Ipad Air 1-2 Sentey® Koraza Review

I received this item at no cost to me for honest unbiased review.

First off I have to say I had never used a tempered glass protector before so when I was unwrapping it I actually tried to put the plastic part on the screen LOL. Then I realized I was so wrong, hey it happens. Anyways not only do you get the tempered glass and a stylus: you also get an alcohol wipe to help you clean the screen real good before you try and put the glass, a hard rubber squared to help you get rid of any bubbles you may have left when you put the glass and a really nice cleaning cloth.

Installation is super easy if you follow two good recommendations:
1 clean the screen well before applying the glass
2 line up the home button with the glass cover so you don't mess up

After doing the steps mentioned before I just simple let it start adhering by itself and it had very little bubbles and all towards the edge that came out easily with the rubber tool. The first thing you will notice is how clear of an image you will get from the glass it is super nice.
Also it is completely responsive to finger and stylus movement.
It is easy to clean because of the super smooth surface.

We all really care about keeping our screen in good condition not so much for the rest of it, like the back so this is a must buy for any serious owner.

iPhone 6 Case, Clear, Ultra Thin, Stylish Case for Apple Phone Review


I received this item at little to no expense in exchange for my honest unbiased review.

First I have to say nowadays variety is found not in our phones as much as the cases we have on them. At one time you asked people what kind of phone they have and it could virtually be anything now it comes down to either an IPhone or a well known Android. So how do we distinguish or personalize our cell phones? Cases!

The case I am reviewing at this moment is a minimalistic clear case made of a soft gel-like material not a hard case. I am NOT into minimalism per-say I am more of a functionality over minimalism type of person so I had and have my reservations about this case. Since I first got a charging case for a previous phone that has been the standard for me. Despite that I am going to evaluate this case based on how this case performs and what it promises.

Pros:
Super thin/small great to keep your phone bulk down.
Gives you access to all the buttons needed.
Soft material that allows you to slip the phone in and out without damaging your phone.
The material is texturized so you can have adequate grip on it.
The parts it does cover it adds protection from scratches and some physical/drop damage.
It is clear which allows you to really show the actual phone.
Fits well

Cons:
The screen is completely exposed which a major concern for users like me.


#‎IPHONE6CASE‬ by HRN Online is a pretty good case if you want something small and simple. If you are into the whole ‪#‎minimalistic‬ movement this is probably the case for you. I would give this a 4/5 rating because of 0 screen protection

SIMPLE GRILLIN' BBQ GRILL MAT - Set of 2 Review and Time-lapse Mexican BBQ


I received this product at no expense to me for my honest unbiased review.

I made this video review where I state most of the same things, but I also show clean up and a time-lapse of actual use.
I would put a rating of 4.5-5 for these grill mats (I really expected the mat to burn/melt).

Pros:
They are non-stick surfaces
They will withstand your grill heat without failing or getting destroyed
They allow you to grill new foods and recipes
You can actually marinate your meal easily and not worry about losing all that flavor
It will conform to the shape of your grill surface easily
You can cut the mats to fit your grill
They are tough and flexible
They are pretty easy to clean up, store, and set up
Gives you more controlled heat which allows you to flip and move your food easily without getting burned
No grill marks on your food.

Cons:
They will cook slower/different than what you are use to. I mean a lot of people like me cook by sight aka the color meat will get, that is not as easy to determine by cooking with the mats so you hate to adjust
It will not clean as easily if you use cool water/soap

If you like to grill definitely pick up a set of these .

Sentey® Power Supply 650w 80 Plus Bronze - Mbp650-hs Metal Blade Power Review and Installation

I received the 650W 80+ Bronze Metal Blade PSU at no expense to me for my honest unbiased review.
In my video review I go over what it comes with, my thoughts about it, I show how it is working after I installed, and I included a time-lapse at 3:06 forward to show the whole installation process (it was my first time replacing a PSU).
I upgraded from the 350w PSU I bought my PC with to this one. I had always had complains of my old one being too load and always seeming like it was working too hard for regular task. I also had issues with my computer "turning off" slightly when people used switches on the same grid, I wasn't sure what the reason was.
That being said the installation of the PSU was very simple, just be careful when you pull things off, don't over-do it make sure to click the clips if they have any. The new PSU from SENTEY is running my computer great and I have since not had a problem with the excess noise or my computer "turning off". Everything on my computer is running much smoother now and I am super satisfied with this new PSU. I really like that I have a 5 year warranty on it and that Sentey is very good about helping you when you contact them. I give this item a 5/5 star rating

Kairos Pro Mouse pad by Sentey Review

I received this mouse pad at no cost to me in exchange for my honest unbiased review.
So let us be honest most of use do not NEED a mouse pad (unless you have glass desk), but we are all better off when we have one.

Pros:
This mouse pad plenty big for all your needs
The top surface is smooth and allows your mouse and hand to move around easily
No bumping of getting stuck when you move the mouse around
It has a plastic surface that is waterproof/resistant
It has a nice rubber bottom that doesn't slip or move easily
It is flexible so it can accommodate to the surface you chose to put it on
Nice design and look
Easy to wipe/clean
Great packaging and presentation.
Good price point at $10.99

Cons:
It had and has developed small defects where the rubber and plastic are separating making small bubbles that do not affect the mouse functions
The side and ends are not covered/secured so it is easy to start bending and lifting them up.
It may be too big for some people (12in x 10 in)

Overall I would have to say considering all the pros and the few cons which I think can be avoided or address easily I would rate this product at a 4-4.5 out of 5.

How To Work From Home And Make A Six Figure Income Course Review


I received this udemy course at no cost for my honest unbiased review.
 
I was really interested in taking this course because I am currently looking for a job and it grabbed my attention. The class is called "How To Work From Home And Make A Six Figure Income" and let's be honest most people would love to be their own boss and run their own business.  So this course is done on Udemy.com which is like an online school that anyone can be a part of.
 
Pros:
Talks about a variety of opportunities to work from home.
He provides the names and links to different sites you could use for each of the types of jobs.
Provides an outline of the lecture slides and some addition material.
Good pace and a nice steady lecture voice.
Every section is organized well.
Each part is short enough to keep your attention.
Walks you through what each job is and what kind of people generally pursue each.
Provides good encouragement.
 
 
Cons:
The regular $97 price tag is way too much for what you get from this course. (There is a discount link
that is supposed to be 90% off is at a much more reasonable price at which I think you investing in it would be a good purchase. comment if you would like to win it )

Not enough content in my opinion seems very generalized.
A lot of the opportunities he talks about he says you can make a 6 figure income only if you have the right skills or experience already which kind of negates the whole and "make a six figure income".
It is too much of a general overview of ways you can earn income from home and very little "HOW TO" which makes the course title deceiving.
There was only one instance where he showed an example of how income comes in.
The class should of featured walkthroughs of how to set up and use the different sites and opportunities which where supposed to be the focus.
 
 
Considering all I have stated if you use the link above ^ for the discount and get the course for around $10 dollars I would rate the class at about a 3.5-4 out of 5. Although if you are going to pay full price of $97 I would not take this class, I think you can probably get similar help by spending some time searching the internet so I would rate it at a 2-2.5 out of 5.
 

iPhone 6 Battery Case [Apple MFi Certified] Chromo Inc® - 3 in 1 Charging


I received this case at little or no expense to me in exchange for my honest an unbiased review.
 
 
So what is this exactly?  Well this is a charging case for the new iPhone 6. Nowadays almost everyone has a smartphone and we are on it a lot. Seems like no matter what phone we have the battery is never enough and we are always running out of charge. This is where products like this one come in. They are basically like an extra battery that you always have with you.
 
 
 
 
Pros:
Good amount of charge
Responds well to commands
Charges phone and itself
Aesthetically pleasing
Feels comfortable
Not too bulky
The charging button on back that is the on/off also has 3 light indicators to give you an approximate amount of battery life is left on the case
It protects the phone from hits, dings, and drops.
It can function as a stand
Uses a micro-USB connection.
 

Cons:
You have to be careful not to pinch yourself early on when you are barely getting to know how to put on and take off the case. 
Separating the stand part is not the easiest thing to do if you don't have nimble fingers.
It is sometimes difficult to remove the phone from the case.
 
 
 
All in all I have to say this case is definitely a good buy. I would rate it at a 4.5/5 because of the cons I mentioned although you will not be removing the phone all the time once you put it in, it stays in most of the time. I also believe working the stand is just a matter of getting it right.

Sentey® Nebulus Gaming Mouse 3200Dpi

I received the Gaming Mouse 3200Dpi Sentey® Nebulus at no cost to me for my unbiased and honest review and feedback.

My overall rating is 4.5/5 and I would recommend to people looking for an introductory gaming or media mouse.
PROS:
Great feel and nice design.
Braided cable for added protection.
Sturdy and secure buttons that respond well and accurately.
You can adjust the weight of the mouse, 9 different weights that can be removed.

Assigned color indicators to show you which DPI settings you are currently using.
Customizable backlight which can be off/low/med/high and made to pulsate at different settings.
Installation disc works quickly.
CONS:
Feels a little small (both vertically and horizontally) for big hands, to where your palm will be on your mouse pad/surface most of the time.
The should probably include something to hold the weights when you remove them.

Sentey 4-port White USB Wall Charger 30w Ls-2214 Review


I received the Sentey 4-port White USB Wall Charger 30w Ls-2214 for free in exchange for my honest unbiased review.
I will summarize what I go over in the video starting with the rating.
I would give this a 4.5 mainly because I don't like the white color choice cause it gets dirty/scuffed easily.
Pros:
It has 2 5v/2a (faster charging) ports and 2 5v/1a ports which allow you to charge 4 devices from the same place great for any tech junkie.
It is simply designed and its focus is on function.
It is not too big.
It provides plenty of juice even when you have all 4 ports in use.
It is slim even though its still large.
It has a blue indicator to show that it is passing current.
It only cost $9.99 where a lot of single adaptors will run you about 5 or more dollars especially from local convenience stores.
Cons:
I really dislike the color choice, it is more of a personal choice thing.
It will block you from being able to access the ground on the outlet above it because of its size.



Sentey Aluminium 10 Ports USB 3 0 Hub with 3 Charging Ports Review

Sentey Aluminium 10 Ports
7 USB 3.0 Hub with 3 Charging Ports
 

I received this product in exchange for my honest unbiased review.
I tested and checked the following things, this will be a summary of the video.

PROS:
No need to install anything plug and use
Adds 7 3.0 ports and 3 charging ports to your 1 port
Handles all kinds of memory sticks most of them load immediately and charging cables.
Handles multiple usb and charging needs at once.
Syncs up quickly
Good spacing between ports
The USB to USB cable is plenty long like 3ft
Nice rubber feet that keep it stable and in place
Definitely affordable if you will use this
Great design and construction

CONS:
Bulky power system.
Have to use a power system to use this hub will not work without a power source
Carry case isn't big enough to carry the power cord with the rest of it
Not practical for a lot of people who will use only 2/3 ports but will be great for people who have a lot of technology items.


Bluetooth Speaker 4.0 Sentey® B-trek S8 (Black)

Bluetooth Speaker 4.0 Sentey® B-trek S8 (Black)

I received this product in exchange for my honest unbiased review.
This is a summary of what I test and say in the video.
 
Pros:
Great design, color combination, and material choice.
The top and bottom give you super soft surfaces that won't damage surfaces.
Easy to connect through the Aux cable in addition to the Bluetooth.
You can choose to use the speaker only for phone functions like calls and commands or you can use just for your media sounds like music or both.
Easy to turn on and off.
Buttons will respond to light pushes.
Buttons are hidden under the top rubbery layer so they are protected from being ripped out or mistreated.
Great clear sound that will get very loud if needed (I used at the park in the middle of a sports tournament and it was plenty loud for us).
Battery life seems to work as advertised.
Easy to charge with a micro-usb connection which is included.
It switches from media to phone functions easily.
The buttons respond well, accurately and with a minimal delay.
You can use it while charging.
It has a nice weight to it.
 
Cons:
The aux cable seems cheap to me, I would upgrade to a braided cord if you will be using an aux cable instead of Bluetooth.
The transport case seems a little small in my opinion, everything fits well don't get me wrong I just would like some more space on it.
It would be nice if the charging and in use light would be different than just blue, just so you are sure you are still charging while using.
The micro-usb connection is so tight its kind of hard to remove.

Sentey Audio Cable 3.5mm Braided Stereo Audiophile Grade

Sentey Audio Cable 3.5mm Braided Stereo Audiophile Grade

I received this product in exchange for my honest unbiased review.


PROS:
Great sound
Gold plated tips
Hard plastic end with flat sides for extra grip and control
Braided cable with a fabric type material that increases its strength and protects it from regular damage
Tangle free and it will go back to straight easily without staying coiled up
It has a spacer built in to compensate for cases extra bulk into your port.
Sentey products come with warranty.
Good price ($7.99) for a good cable you probably will not need to replace like most other inexpensive cables.


CONS:
At only 3ft it may not be ideal for everyone looking for an AUX cable for someone who is going to jog or exercise with it.
It will not fit into mophie type charging cases without your adaptor cause the spacing is bigger than most cases on the bottom.
