Monoprice Blackbird 4K Pro 3X1 Enhanced HDMI Switch with Built-In Equalizer & Remote Control


This is a very compact switch.  It works easily with no software needed.  The remote only works with the attachment of the IR receiver.  Operationally this works just fine.  One fly in the ointment is the remote.  I tried to open the battery compartment just to see how hard it would be to replace the battery.  I could not get it open. The remote is so tiny and flimsy that I was concerned about damaging it.  I guess when the battery does die, I will need to pry the compartment open and use electric tape to hold it in if I do break it.  The problem with the battery compartment drops this from five stars to three.

Remington RM2510 Rustler 17-Inch 25cc 2-Cycle Curved Shaft Gas Trimmer with QuickStart Technology

I haven't had a gas powered weed wacker for several years.   I still find the mixing of gas and oil a pain in the butt.   Since all my gas cans are in use and I didn't want to empty one to test this, I bought a new one gallon can.   The Remington includes a starter can of oil, 3.2oz which you mix with one gallon of gas.   I'm a direction reader so after reading them several times I began.  I installed the shield and repositioned the handle.   Pretty simple and wing nuts are not just goofy people, these wing nuts worked just fine.   It has a primer bulb which you depress ten times and then adjust the choke and pull away.   It is a very light pull and it started after the third sequence  of five pulls.   You leave it warm up and then you are ready to go.   The bump head that is supposed to release the cutting line works but not smoothly.  I was unable to get it to release line on the grass.  I had to "bump" it on the driveway to get it to release.   I
