Shark ION Robot Vacuum R85


Shark ION Robot Vacuum R85 with Wi-Fi, Smart Sensor Navigation 2.0, Powerful Suction and XL Dust Bin, and Self-Cleaning Brushroll (RV850), Ash Gray

This is pretty nifty.   It performs as advertised.  It was able to go from my workroom floor over the threshold and up on the rug with no issues.  I put it in a tight area and it was able to work out how to get out.  The dust bin appears to be 50% larger than the one on my iRobot model.  The brushes should make it great with pet hair. (Should since we have no pets now, I can’t swear to that.) My wife will not talk to it so I did not use the Alexa aspect or the cell phone aspect.  Just push the button marked CLEAN and off it goes.  The boundary strip will keep it from tumbling down the stairs.  Overall it works well for general every day clean up and from what I could see should be invaluable if you have pets.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You ...

Troy-Bilt 2700 PSI 2.3 GPM Gas Pressure Washer Review

Troy-Bilt 2700 PSI 2.3 GPM Gas Pressure Washer Review Item #: 75140 | Model #: 20414 When I started this blog, I assumed I would be only talking tech. Well that led to philosophic musing and then comments on other stuff. I’m not sure where a pressure washer fits but regardless I am writing about it. I was power washing the mildew off the siding and thought the odor was the detergent I was using. When I looked over my shoulder and saw the grey smoke pouring out of the pressure washer, I realized what the odor really was. Considering the age of my venerable electric power washer, I concluded that discretion being the better part of safety and how water and electricity don’t play well, I trashed my old power washer. After much research, I found the Troy-Bilt 20414 was the best bang for the buck I could find. Keep in mind I am a consumer, not some testing house, so I make my purchases based on research and price point. I wanted electric but my boys who participated in the purchase, ...
