DEWALT DCBL790M1 Max Brushless Blower, 40-volt


The blower assembled easily.   The directions were clear and concise.   The battery charger has clear instructions printed right on the charger.   The unit worked at least as well as my electric blower.  I don't have a gas blower so I don't know if it is as powerful as a gas one.   The blower worked surprisingly well on wet snow even when I didn't anticipate it working on wet snow at all.  The battery aspect makes it perfect for my pool deck as the 100 feet of electric cord on my electric blower was always threatening to go into the pool.  The blower is powerful and even with the very heavy battery seemed well balanced.   There was a metal plate in the battery charger box that appears to allow it to be mounted.   Since there was no mention of it (that I could find), I really don't have a clue on it's purpose.  I hate messing with gas powered tools as they always defy my best attempts to start them when they have set for awhile.  (The exception is my 15 year old Toro snow blower which starts every season.)  It was not overly loud but I would recommend ear plugs when using.  Overall I am impressed with this blower.

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
