query: Do the CyberPower PFC Sinewave UPS's have the ability (while unplugged from a power source) to power up off of the battery? (Cold start).

pos: If you mean, can the UPS, if charged, be powered on and used to run electronics when unplugged, the answer is yes. And while I haven't exactly tried it myself, I believe that you can start a computer or other device from "cold" while unplugged as well. The only caveat as far as I know is that it not draw more wattage / VA than the unit can supply during start up.


query: I'm a shoe size 7 1/2 or 8 depending on shoes. What size socks should I get?

pos: If your foot is narrow s/m should be okay. If the foot is wider the I would go M/L.

pos: I wear a size 9 1/2 to 10 shoe. I purchased the Med/Large and they fit perfectly. So I am guessing you will need the S/M size

pos: I wear a ladies 9 and I got size large and they fit well. They are compression, so are supposed to be tight.

pos: I wear a size 9 shoe and bought the med/lg. They do fit tight. But my legs and feet feel great after 10 hours on them.


query: Does it have a turntable

pos: It has a glass turntable, which rides on a little round carriage (under the turntable). Both can come out for washing.


query: i have a mp3 player not an I pod Does it make a difference in quality of music if it is an mp3?

pos: No it doesn't make a lot of difference but if your mp3s are poorly recorded it won't sound as great.. The headphones are still an excellent deal for what. they are selling for.. I also used the headphones to listen to Netflix movies to which I will give an update.. Great headphones!!

pos: Ya it can if it is not of good quality. It doesn't have to be a IPOD just has to be of good quality.


query: Is there a filter that can be replaced. The water pressure is very, very weak. What could be the problem?

pos: The aerator will unscrew from the front of the faucet, you can just soak it in white vinegar to descale it. There is another if you unscrew the faucet from the hose. Unscrew it.. it should just be a mesh piece with a washer around it, either pry it out or pour vinegar in there at let it sit for a while.


query: If I install these into a thermal motion sensor (non-security-linked), will they last more than 9 months before I have to recharge them?

pos: I would say it depends how often they are actively running. In my experience, using them in the same product as a disposable, I get 24 hours per charge or 3-4 times longer than that with a disposable. If you know how long a disposable lasts in your sensor, you could make a guess that this would last for your purposes.

pos: Yo las uso en mi guitarra!, y me alcanza por un mes, antes de recargar nuevamente. Y no la uso a diario!.


query: How does this fare while wearing glasses for longer sessions? Ie gaming, watching a movie, etc.

pos: I wear glasses also. These ear-peaces swivel to fit you easily. I can wear these for hours at a time (and I do) when I am gaming with no discomfort or problems.

pos: I wear glasses, and it has never caused me any problems, but I also wear thinner wire-framed glasses, so not sure how thick-framed glasses would be affected.

pos: I use it for work, for online meetings, which can sometimes run for hours. I also use them in training sessions, which can last hours. I wear glasses and haven't had any issue with them.

pos: I have not used for an extended period but had no problem using it with my glasses.

pos: Hi Nicole, I've been able to use the headphones for long gaming sessions without issues with glasses. My ears do get a tad on the warm side at times. I love the cord it's not rubber, but a blue mesh material cord cover.


query: Photos VERY grainy...? What am I doing wrong?

pos: -Using an image quality and size setting other than Large Fine will result in lower resolution images or can introduce annoying "artifacts" (e.g., blockiness). -Using the digital zoom will also reduce resolution. Turn off digital zoom and instead crop images on your computer when necessary. -Using too high of a an ISO (sensitivity) setting will also make the image appear grainy. This is true of all cameras though poitnt and shoot cameras typically suffer to a much greater degree due to their smaller sensors. Try and keep the ISO setting at or below ISO 400. -Additionally, this camera's High ISO mode - ISO 3200 - automatically reduces the camera's resolution to just under 2 megapixels. "Emergency use only."


query: When urine goes from carpet into pad, does this product still work if pad is also soaked with urine?

pos: I agree with Jennifer Childs answer:Yes, as long as you get Pure Ayre on every single part of the pad that had urine in it. You should use a large syringe to inject it down into the pad. There is a pet kit available that includes a carpet syringe with a gallon of Pet Ayre. Clean Earth - Pureayre Pure Ayre® Pet Kit 11414P

pos: Frankly, I've only used it in the litter box, and to freshen the room it is in. I turn to Nature's Miracle for the serious stuff, since this isn't meant as a "cleaner" per se, just an odor eliminator. But even Nature's Miracle, like the comments below suggest about PA, needs to soak all the way into wherever the urine is, AND then dry properly. You may have to lift up the carpet to do so. I've heard some folks say that if it gets into the cement or wood below, it can be hard to completely eliminate the smell, no matter what product you use.


query: Does "dual speed" mean there are only two levels of sound (softer and louder), and not a full sound spectrum, mute to very loud?

pos: For the most part. U can adjust the sound but I don't really notice the difference. However it was one of the better purchases I've made. It blocks just enough sound to my daughter to sleep soundly.

pos: Yes but because there are those air holes and you can rotate the top cover you can actually get more than two levels of sound.

pos: There are only two levels of sound, Low and High, which is controlled by the black button on the side. However, you can adjust the side airflow vents to tweek it a bit more. I love mine and I do not leave home without it.


query: What comes in the box ?

pos: Hi there! Hmm I might miss out some things but here goes. There's the mic of course, with a dust bag, the shock absorber with pop filter, a big cable to connect the mic to something else (sorry I'm not very technical). Oh yes the mic requires phantom power too so the cable is for that. And there's a cd or two. I can't really rmb I had it quite some time ago. Anyway it's pretty good stuff, looks nice, sounds great and quite a steal. That should be all.

pos: Mic itself, SM 6 shockmount and a very good XLR cable, dust cover, of course with documentations and sticker too.


query: Does anyone know if ACDelco makes a this cable with a lightning connector instead of the older 30 pin connector?

pos: You'll need this and a 30 pin to lightning adapter, only the apple branded products will work for that, all Chinese knock offs don't Work, and gm doesn't make this adapter with a lightning connector so you have to buy both


query: The description says the fan blades are walnut/light cherry but when you click on see more product details it say they are white. Which is it?

pos: Both. There are two sides to the blade. They are reversible. I don't know about walnut/cherry, but mine was white/bleached-oak.

pos: The entire product is white , housing,hardware and blades exactly what description told me and what I wanted. Very happy with this product.

pos: We bought the pewter (silver-type) ceiling fan and the blades are walnut/cherry but more walnut.

pos: This is the fan I ordered --Hunter 20807 52-Inch Antique Pewter Low Profile III Fan 808 not 803


query: Time to cook: How long should I expect it to take from the time I start the fire until it's ready to cook?

pos: Kingsford gave their regular charcoal a makeover and now the charcoal lights faster than before so depending on what you are cooking and how hot you want the grill to be, you can be ready to go in about 15 minutes versus the 30 - 40 minutes that it used to take. Take a peek at this site for more info: http://busycooks.about.com/od/outdoorgrills/a/howtogrill.htm The article has an embedded link to another article that has additional information. The Performer is a great grill, and it's one of my favorites. The Touch-N-Go ignition is tops! The other favorite is the Weber Baby Q. I like to use that one sometimes during the week when grilling items that don't take much time to cook.


query: what are the care instructions to make it last and continue to look like new?

pos: Like most woods, to oil it. I like to keep it dark, I don't like the faded disyreessed look of some hardwoods such as teak when it turns gray. So I oil it on a regular basis.


query: Is there a weight rating on the chairs?

pos: Weight rating? Not sure what that means but my best answer is that they are pretty lightweight and very comfortable!!!

pos: In my experience with FM9 it was limited to 2 computers. I am not sure about FM10.

pos: You can make a pre-purchase call and ask them (even though you'll be buying it here). You are definitely allowed to have it on 2 computers (e.g., a desktop and laptop) that are not on the same network. I have it on 2 computers that often access the same WiFi, but are NOT themselves networked. The same might apply to 3 home computers. If the computers are networked, I think the software detects each copy and won't let you open more than one copy at a time.

pos: I also need to install on three computers. Does anyone know if FMP 10 allows it?Thank you.Will


query: Is this a genuine Nikon battery, or just a Nikon compatible battery?

pos: Its genuine. Atleast the one I received. My doesnt hold a charge anymore. After 1 year of heavy use within my possession

pos: The first one I got was from some retailer and was a knock off. Returned it, got the one actually sold by Amazon and it was the real deal.

pos: It appears to be a Genuine Nikon EN-EL3e battery. on the other side there will be a hologram and the Nikon name on a sticker. I bought a battery once that wasn't genuine and didn't notice it for a while but so far not problems. It's about 3.5 years old now and some of my other Nikon batteries are 4 and 5 years old.

pos: The battery I received was indeed a genuine Nikon battery and was identical to my original battery in every way. I bought it as a back-up, and it functions perfectly well.

pos: If you look at the picture of the back you can see that it is not Genuine. It is possible that some people are getting a genuine battery but that is just a sticker. If you want to see what real one looks like go to B&H.;

pos: The battery sold by Amazon.com is genuine, same good quality as the original one with the camera body.Not sure about the other ones sold by other vendors though...

pos: The battery sold by Amazon.com is genuine, same good quality as the original one with the camera body. Not sure about the other ones sold by other vendors though...

pos: It is a genuine Nikon battery. I find it to have excellent longevity. Highly recommended.

pos: Bought couple of years back, appears to be genuine and functions perfectly ............ no different that the battery that came with the camera.


query: Will this work with the Helion dominus 10scv2

pos: this is a 11.1 volt battery--your battery is 8.4 volt around 3000mah- the plug (Tamiya type) on your battery is different. Even if one of the plugs fit your car the 11.1 volts destroy the electronics.


query: Are these ice trays BPA, PVC and phthalate free?

pos: I believe they are. Most of OXO's products that will contain food steer clear of BPA, PVC and phthalates.

pos: I contacted the company directly and this is the response i got from them "Thank you for contacting the OXO Consumer Care Center and your interest in OXO products.

query: Does this fit the Universal Gourmet Tomato Sauce Maker Model No, 800

pos: I don't think that it does. Not 100% certain, but thought about buying some other look alike strainers from a hardware store, but found out that they metal collars wouldn't fit onto the base housing...so in my experience...no...Roma equipment on the roma base....


query: Will this play Blu-Ray Dvd's? Doesn't mention anything in specs.

pos: first of all, DVD is one thing and Bluray is another, but to answer your question.. no, it only has a DVD player, and honestly wouldnt expect other way for a budget laptop


query: 1. (Yes/No) - Is the size of the tire molded into the sidewall of the tire, (yes or no)? If yes, what does that sidewall marking (not the box) read?

pos: Yes, the size of the tire is molded into the sidewall of the tire. It reads 26 x 1.75... I bought the same size that was molded on the old tire. I threw the box away so I don't know what the size said on the box, hope this helps


query: Does the camera come with a power cord to recharge it?

pos: It comes with a rechargeable battery and battery charger which plugs into an outlet. The battery needs removed and placed in the charger, you do not plug the camera directly into a power source. It also comes with a USB cord which connects the camera to your computer to download your photos, but this does not charge the camera.

pos: It came with a wall charger that you have to take the battery out of the camera and pop it in the charger.

pos: It comes with a battery charger. You take the battery out of the camera and insert it into the charger. The charger plugs directly into the outlet, no cord.

pos: I apologize for not responding to your question sooner, but I have your answer now. No, the camera does not come with a power cord. The box contains the camera, a wrist strap, a battery charger, and a battery pack.


query: Does this come with an accessory kit? Thanks, Stephanie

pos: Yes, It comes with an accessory kit and extra bags. I love my Little Hetty. Enjoy Diana

pos: just some but not the micro set, the dust one and the nozzel for small areas , like when you vac your car. also a oblong small and a slightly larger one.


query: Would this work for trimming pampas grass?

pos: Mine cuts 1/4 inch privet hedge twigs and branches. I can't imagine pampas grass being a problem.

pos: As long as the main stalks are quite sturdy and you allow the blades to do their job and cut rather than forcing them and causing it to tear and rip it should work fine. for the more grassy style leaves, no.


query: does it come with the wallplate?

pos: No. Wall plates do not come with this switch. You'll have to pick that up separate.


query: How does it compare to the RADEX RD1212? The units are within about $15 of each other. Why this one over the RD1212? I am primarily interested in testing food and outside of small liquid containers.

pos: P.S. After purchasing the unit I discovered that IF you want to join a country wide radiation network, you'd need another model to do that. Karen


query: How many coals should I put over the foil?

pos: Hello Angele...that depends on how much tobacco you're going to use. Personally I break my charcoal into quarter pieces and use one of those pieces. The charcoal burns very slowly and I use approximately 2-3 pinches of tobacco. I get a good long smoke from that amount...actually 2 people could smoke that amount but like I said that depends on how long you like to smoke. You can get extended use from your charcoal if you break it into smaller pieces. I hope I helped you. Peace♥

pos: ANGELE: As a general rule, one or two. The idea is to distribute the coals evenly over the shisha so it burns evenly. Keep in mind that all the time you're smoking a nargile (hookah) you'll have to continuously adjust the position of the coals every few minutes to create an even burn. In Nargile joints in Istanbul and the Middle East, there's usually a guy who does this for you called the "fireman" & tends to the customer's Hookahs . He walks about with a bucket of hot coals, changing the customer's coals now and again as he sees fit, knocking off the ashes of others, taking orders for tea, pipes, this and that and generally being your "go to guy".

query: Is there a recall on PureBites Chicken breast?

pos: There has been no recall on these, but there was an FDA announced recall on the Pure Bites Salmon due to salmonella found. I have been meaning to contact the company since learning about the recall as I often find oily pieces of chicken in the chicken breast treat bags. Makes me nervous that there could be salmonella or something else in the chicken, as well. I would like to know if, after the salmon problem was found, they tested their chicken product to ensure it was okay.

pos: I checked the internet and did not see a recall on these. They are freeze dried and not the same as the chicken jerkey that has been recalled by so many other manufacturers. There doesn't seem to be a recall on these. Thankfully.


query: Does iPad air work under water

pos: you would have to wait tilll the ipad water comes out cause this is the ipad air

pos: Salt water only. Just kidding, but think you are too. Of course you can't use an iPad under water. Maybe in 2020.

pos: It is actually faster and more user friendly when using it under water. Kind of like a toaster in the bath tub.

query: Does the product work if you're hair is naturally darker than the dye?

pos: Will remove any artificial color if your hair is darker than the color you applied it means already removed your Natural color from the cuticles then after you remove the artificial color you need to apply the desired color your Natural color has been lighterNed by what ever you used this won't bring your natural shade it's already gone

pos: From my understanding it does, I've seen women on YouTube who had naturally dark hair have their lift. I'm by no means a hair stylist.


query: I have long straight hair. Does it work with long hair? Does it curl hair well?Thank you.

pos: This works with long hair, but it will take some patience. You can simply (manually) rotate the brushes while the dryer is on to create large curls or flips.

pos: Sorry Im not familiar with the Fusion Styler. My hair is naturally curly so I like the Conair because it helps with pulling the curl out of my hair. Not as straight as a flat iron, but more waves and volume than curl. Hope that answers your question.


query: Are these cameras vandal proof?

pos: I would say no. If you can reach them, then you can easily unplug and remove them from base.

pos: No but I've never worked with any camera that is by itself. There are enclosures for that purpose.

pos: These cameras are not vandal proof. If you mount them in a manner that is accessible by miscreants, they will be vulnerable and likely vandalized.


query: how does the automatic shut off work? after how many minutes/hours does it shut off?

pos: It has a 10 hour auto shutoff. Many are not aware it has an auto shutoff but guessing that is because they don't keep it on for 10 hours !! It just clicks off after 10 hours

query: How does this fence work in the winter? Is the quality affected by snow and/or ice in any way?

pos: The fence works well. We have had no trouble with the signal in winter. The depth of snow can affect performance, by elevating the dog higher than the signal. If your area gets more than 4-6 feet of snow on a regular basis, this should be considered. However, we have found that the dogs don't want to stray past the boundaries even in deep snow or power outages, due to conditioning/training.

pos: No, weather doesn't seem to affect it at all. Works great unless the power goes off.

pos: We have had no problems at all, even this past winter. We installed the system almost 3 years ago and other than batteries in the collar we have done nothing. Great system.


query: hello, any idea if this helps bring oxygen to the water also? when you have fish?

pos: It does. It circulates the water which provides oxygen. I have an indoor house pond filled with kois. Their life expectancy has greatend and they have grown bigger due to the water circulation. My local pet shop suggested getting one, however make sure you buy the right pump (based on how many gallons your pond holds)

pos: Yes, the water movement definitely helps oxygenate the water, which is why I am using it. I also have bubblers because there are so many fish in a small enclosure. I like this particular model because it is more compact and I have a smaller "pond" so it takes less space and is easier to get out of the water to replace the filters. Because of algae and fish waste I have to change the filter about once a week or the fountain stops running because no water gets through the clogged filters, so make sure you get extra filters or filter material also if you want to cut your own to save money.

pos: The fountain and filter move the water around, which helps aerate it. Usually if your water is lacking oxygen, it is due to too many fish or too much uneaten food in the water. The filter helps with removing contaminants which while decomposing will deplete the oxygen.

pos: I believe the fountain does add oxygen to the water. And you definitely need to keep the filter clean in order to keep the pond clean.

pos: Indeed , this littel Filter with Fountain sprout should bring ennough oxgen to your Pond . depending on the Pond size ? , Keep it clean all the time , a Fountain ' Dribble ' will tell you it is time for a simple Garden Hose cleaning :) , also get a UV 9watt light to keep your Water crystal clean .

query: Everything sticks to this pan - using low heat - what am I doing wrong?

pos: Use PAM or a tablespoon of oil, heat pan on medium, and put in meat or whatever you wish to fry lightly. If you are frying chicken, for example, you will need to use about almost an inch or more of peanut oil (for high heat frying), preheat, and immerse coated chicken pieces in the oil. Always stand back from pan when you do this. As the previous comments wrote, this is not a non stick pan.

pos: Right. Food will stick to a pan that is not hot enough. If you are cooking with low heat for some food/health philosophy reason, get non-stick pans. If you are just unsure how to heat the pan properly for cooking, watch this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMW74sHyljg

pos: It's a fry pan. You need to have some kind of fat to fry in. This is not non-stick. I love this pan and use it all the time.

pos: Canon s95 has the best image quality of all cameras mentioned above (CCD sensor).If you want better video mode than you have to go with CMOS sensor cameras (sx230, 300HS).The s95 and sx230 have full manual controls.

pos: I don't know if you got the answer to your question, but I'm also debating whether to get the s95 or the 300 HS. I found this website that does a comparison of the two. http://snapsort.com/compare/Canon-ELPH-300HS-vs-Canon_PowerShot_S95

pos: I'm debating between the SX230 and the 300HS. I love the GPS feature in the 230 but am worried about bad battery life with it on. I also love the great zoom on the 230. On the other hand, I already own 3 NB-4L batteries that I can use as spares for the 300HS and it will fit perfectly in the case I have for my 1100 (that will be retired by whichever new camera I decide to buy).

pos: I just want a camera with high speed to take pics of the grandkids? Any suggestions. i don't need fancy just faster than they are. LOL

pos: There is a small program called CHDK that you place on your SD card and gives the 300HS extraordinary added features without affecting the camera's orig firmware. Manual settings, manual exposure, time-lapse photography, raw mode and a host or others. The 300HS was just on sale at _taples for $107.50 + tax after an instant discount and their 20% off coupon, so this became a no-brainer. Good luck with whatever you choose.

pos: By the way, the S100 has been released that improves on just about every aspect of the S95. And it has 1080p video as well.

pos: Mark, you really can't lose with any of your choices. I guess it all boils down to the features which are most important to you. I can't speak for the S95, as I have only seen other's shots with this camera, but I own the 300hs and my girl and 2 friends have The SX230hs. I am very impressed with them both, but I do like the SX230hs slightly better, because the zoom gets you a lot more flexabillity. I purchased the 300hs over The SX230hs because I had only seen pictures of it before I got my 300hs; from the photos of it, it looked rather large, but after my friend got his, I realized it was pretty small as well.

query: I have 2 granddaughters. They wear a size 11 & 13. What size fin do I get?

pos: I sent an email requesting that same information from the seller and they sent me a size chart.They respond really quick. I don't want to give you bad or wrong info.


query: Will this clean the glass in my wood stove door?

pos: use ash from fp. when it's cold, dip a damp cloth in the ash and scrub the glass. Another review mentioned this when I was looking for a glass cleaner. Works great!! no $$$ : )

pos: No, that is not a good idea......too caustic. They do, however, sell a product made specifically to remove the creosote Tom the glass. It works great!

pos: While this is a great product on keeping down the creosote build up, it only partially cleans the glass. They do make a cleaner specifically for cleaning the glass that works beautifully though.

pos: No it won't clean the glass... although it may make it easier to remove residue. What I use (when the stove is cool) is Windex Professional sprayed on the surface and then a Single Edge Razor Blade in a holder. The Windex helps to soften the residue and the blade scrapes it off fairly well. Depending on the amount of resin in your lumber it will likely have to be cleaned multiple times during the Winter. Good luck!

pos: Do not use this product to clean the glass in your stove! This link has an acceptable method but you can search for yourself too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2usLaNGHHBcDon't take chances with your glass door!


query: Does this Sunscreen protect against both UVA and UVB radiations? (Looks like someone else asked this question but didn't get an answer.)

pos: Truly sorry if we missed this question, (we don't always get a notification by Amazon and we have 33 products in our catalog here) but animosity has answered it quite well. Our product is a little bit over 20% Zinc Oxide concentration wise, which puts it in the 30+ UVA/UVB SPF range. The other ingredients are either for spread-ability, skin soothing and moisturizing.. and again (as our wise customer below has stated) as synergystic elements to boost UV protection (minerals and carrotseed oil for example). Deb and the Teva team

pos: Yes it is. The main sun protective ingredient in this formula is zinc oxide which blocks both radiations. Plus it has minerals that aid in this as well, though much further down the ingredient list. I use this on my face. I find it needs to be reapplied, but that's what Dr.s want you to do anyway.


query: Does this paddle have curved blades?

pos: Yes and it moves you across the water so swiftly. This is such a good paddle.


query: Does this microwave have a light ?

pos: Yes and it comes on when you begin cooking.It illuminates well and cooks great. Well manufactured and beautifully designed. Hands down the mest small micro Ive ever owned A must buy!

pos: yes! and the god part is if you leave the door ajar the light will go out in a few minutesas mentioned previouslly this is the best microwave there is

pos: Yes, It lights when you turn on the micro. It illuminates very well and cooks incredibly evenly and well..Hands down the best micro I've ever owned. Solid piece and incredibly well designed


query: I am looking for a Womens size 6, or a girls size 4. What should I order?

pos: Hi Kristine, I am not sure of the answer. I used the size chart online and it matched well with my granddaughter's size at the time (since much bigger) and my own. Sorry, that is the best I can do.


query: hows the pattern? deep or shallow?

pos: It's not too deep at all. I'm not very good with measurements, but would estimate about 1/32" maybe... So far it doesn't seem to hold water in the indentions of the pattern that could possibly cause rust. Hope that helps!


query: what does the kit contain?

pos: the set I got in April 2014 had safety goggles. For contents see my review below.

pos: Not much. Doesn't even contain the necessary safety gloves/goggles required to do experiments.


query: The distance between the transom hook and the hook on the trailer is exactly 2 feet. Does that mean I should get the 2 ft one or 4 ft?

pos: You need the 4 footer. The tie-down needs to be at least few inches longer than the distance from boat to trailer to allow you to attach the hooks and pull the strap tight. It doesn't hurt anything to have a longer strap than you need. I fold the extra strap and tuck it under the velcro. You could also cut the extra length and burn the end to prevent it from unraveling. Either way, its better to have more than not enough.


query: Is this desk wobbly? I'd like to attach flight simulator equipment to it which would require it to stay stable when I pull back and fourth on it.

pos: If I needed something super stable, I probably wouldn't choose this desk. I'm using it as a vanity. It's just kinda cheap.

pos: This desk is pretty sturdy for regular use. I am not sure how heavy a flight simulator is, so I cannot answer in that area.


query: What is the shoulder drop for the straps?

pos: Yes, 12 inches. This is long enough to go comfortably over shoulder even with a winter coat. That was an important consideration for me and I am very happy with it.


query: does it come with an adapter

pos: No adapter is included, but one is not needed. This drive runs fine on the USB 3.0 ports on a new MacBook. I have mine plugged in to a Belkin USB 3.0 hub with it's own adapter, but have run it directly off my MacBook Pro 15" with Retina Display.

pos: No, it does not come with an AC adapter. It is powered by the USB connection. I have had no problems with just using the USB connection as a power source.


query: Does this include a converter?

pos: If you are referring to another interchanged writing portion as shown in the photo, then the answer is yes.

pos: Yes. I was planning to use cartridges, but the vonvertef eorks well snd I have not bothered with csrtridges.


query: someone said that this diffuser works great but only last 1 to 2 years and burns the heating element out of your hair dryer? How does that happen?

pos: You know I don't know, but I really like this product as my daughter uses it all the time and she has not burned out her hair dryer and she has had this item over 2 years. Hope this helps.

pos: Ive had this one for 1.5 years and that has not happened and the diffuser is still in the same condition as when I bought it. However, my blow dryer gets EXTREMELY hot and focusing the heat around the neck of the blow dryer did melt a little of the dryer, but it hasnt changed the functionality of the blower itself.


query: Why is calibration so hard?

pos: Probably do to the ambient light or the florescent lights in your classroom

pos: I was having a very hard time until I thoroughly cleaned my whiteboard. Even though it looked clean, apparently it had some sort of build-up on it. I wiped it down several times with a commercial whiteboard cleaner after having absolutely no luck. While never a "breeze," calibration became easier and faster after cleaning my board and never writing on it at all while using the Now Board.

pos: I didn't find it hard at all. That said all of our Now Boards are mounted to the ceiling. If you have them on a table and the table gets bumped that will force you to recalibrate. There is another possibility. Check the resolution setting of your computer. Often times it is set way to high. In the materials there is a maximum setting for your computers resolution which is 1024X768 if you go higher than that calibration can be a chore.


query: Will it work on Verizon network?

pos: no...it will work on any carrier that use sim card.....at&t, t-mobil ect....

pos: no...it will work on any carrier that use sim card.....at&t;, t-mobil ect....

pos: While i have not tried it on verizon, it worked with docomo in japan, and tmoble in USA. As long as they use sim chips, it sould work fine.

pos: Greetings.I live in Costa Rica, so, I really don't know if this smarth phone works on Verizon Network.Sorry for not be able to help you.


query: How far can the solar panel be mounted from the light?

pos: This light provides the solar panel with 15' length cable, it's expandable up to 50' via extension cable (EE-SPEC-15F): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dual-15-Feet-Extension-Cables-Solar-Panel-Extension-/111240525790?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19e673b7de http://www.eledingsolar.com/ee-spec-15f/


query: Will this fit over an auto dimming mirror as the auto dimming mirror is wider / thicker than an ordinary rear view mirror?

pos: I would say probably. Depends mainly on the vehicle it is going in. The mirror "clamps" on the top and bottom of the factory mirror. I have an '04 Trailblazer, and it fits great on it.

pos: I didn't have the chance to experience that, But it does fit snugly"perfectly" on my factory mirror. Main thing it's serving its preference "IT WORKS GREAT" Only wish I met amazon 10Years ago! THANKS VERY MUCH AMAZON AND KEEP UP THE GREAT DEALS APPRECIATED. DEREK.

pos: i did'nt have a chance to experiment that, but as for mines it fit snugly"perfectly" over my factory mirror.

pos: i had this on a 2013 Chevy Malibu with auto dimm mirror with onstar and it fit fine and if done right it will allow for the onstar buttons to be accessed as well

pos: I have a Pickup Truck and the mirror fits snugly"Perfect" on it, and it's got a wider view . I can smile brightly and still see what's behind of me. Thanks for asking.


query: If I want to test twice a day, do I have to wait to pee for a more accurate urine sample? I pee frequently throughout the day, would this affect resu

pos: Dear SJT48:Thank you for your inquiry. If you wanted to check your LH levels, it is recommended to wait at least 2-4 hours between to collect a sample. This can reduce a chance of testing a diluted sample. This is important to find a peak LH level, which the test line should be just as dark or darker than the control line.

pos: You are looking for your LH surge so you can test anytime. Urine is most concentrated in the morning, when you first wake up, but testing later is not a problem.


query: does anyone know how to reset the wastch ?

pos: Hold down all three buttons until screen goes blank and comes back. That will completely reset everything.

pos: Hello,If you are referring on how to reset the watch to factory settings, you press and hold all 3 buttons down at the same time. The screen will flash a couple of times then turn off completely. To turn on the watch again, press and hold any button.

pos: yes, if i remember correctly, just hold 3 buttons at the same time and it will reset to the initial state.


query: Would this be a good gift for my son's 3rd birthday? Other proven-successful suggestions also welcomed! :)

pos: I am a Nana - know young Moms are more knowledgable - - but it seems that Magformers are great for all ages. Can make simple structures and more complicated ones.

pos: i hope he's delighted. He'll get years of use from them. And happy birthday to him.

pos: I gave the first set I bought to a 3-year-old, and he got very excited when he saw the magnets attract and jump together to form a tower. The pieces were laid out flat first which didn't impress him, but when I pulled it up and everything came together he got excited. At that age your son might get frustrated easily because he'll have to be careful handling his creations. They will come apart if not handled correctly, so you'll need to emphasize that it's OK and can be put back together. Mine cried the first couple of times until he realized he could do it. He's now almost 5 years older, and he and his brother have 4 sets. They still copy designs included, but they also use their imaginations and come up with their own elaborate designs. The 5-year-old just asked for another set, and his 6-year-old cousin specifically asked for them for his birthday!

pos: Yes! We got it for my son for Christmas and he is 3. I'm not kidding he builds something and plays with this everyday!!

pos: Yes it would start with a smaller set and you can always buy a bigger if you like it

pos: I purchased my first 4 sets from QVC on TV. I just got this set plus one with 16 extra pieces for the current birthday boy who requested them. He'll get his on Saturday. Just make sure you have a variety of pieces in whatever set you buy. Any hands-on manipulative toys that inspire imagination and creativity are good!


query: Are these right for the Monroe 34900 shock?

pos: In all honesty I don't have the 34900 Shock. What I can say is that the SA 1997 Boot fits the Monroe Steering Stabilizer SC2928 I bought and both the 2928 and the 34900 are very similar. That being said I would say yes, it should fit. Just make sure you install the boot on the shock before you install the Shock on your vehicle.

pos: I don't know, they work on my Monroe sensatrac shocks but they are not an oem replacement for what was on the car and they don't include the rubber bumpstop that the factory BMW gators do. If they don't amazon should take them back. Good luck


query: Does it works in xperia c1604?

pos: Yes it does, I have had it for over 6 months. Works better than the one I got at the store and better price. I also ordered a screen protector because you need it for the screen, the case is covering the back for you.

pos: http://www.phonearena.com/phones/compare/Sony-Xperia-E,Sony-Xperia-Z/phones/7594,7539it will not work. they are different sizes.

query: Can anyone tell me how tall this is with the handle folded down? I've seen different numbers and it would be good to get a real # from an owner. Thx!

pos: Looks to be about 13 & 1/4 " from our measure- can't say that's exact though.. I also checked the manual and didn't see anything in there about it. Hope that helps.


query: The length of the shipping box is the same 70" or it comes folded some way? Thanks.

pos: It is as tall as the box. It's folded width wise. I ordered the one with four panels and it's working out great. Depending on how you are using it, you may need to order the stand. I'm definitely considering it.

pos: Yes, it would be the same 70". What you see folding in the picture are the only places that fold, although it does fold completely to form a rectangular prism.


query: If i was to plug this into an audio jack in a phone would i be able to used an IR Smart Remote app?

pos: No. The emitter only recieves a signal and sends it to the proper component. It will not transmit from a device.

pos: IR transparent, works with existing remote controls only, like DVD players TV's Stereos computers.

pos: I don't know for sure but i'm pretty certain the answer is no and this product certainly wasn't designed for that purpose. I would think you would need something like this (if its still available): http://thinkflood.com/products/redeye-mini/


query: What is the warranty on these items? They seem to be after market, not OEM.

pos: except no warranty.... but for the price you can consider these disposables. I have had mine for over a year and work as well as OEM.

pos: Yes, they are aftermarket by another mfg. Not sure of Warranty. Used these for 6 mos and really satisfactory for me.....

pos: Those I received have worked well thus I have not looked at warranty. Cheaper to just replace them.

pos: I doubt there is one. I bought them -- charger works great. One of the two batteries work great. The second one does not appear to hold a charge very well. At the price though -- I'm happy.

pos: I do not recall what the warranty is but I have had no problem with the batteries. I have bought after market batteries for this camera as well as my other cameras and have had no problem with any of them.


query: if you remove the cleaner container from the green handle there is a date on the green handle. Can you tell me the date. Thanks

pos: I have two (2) Libman Mops - the 15" Wide Mop has this date and info on it (05-23-2013 / 3:57PM-B) the other Mop is 10" Wide and has this date and info on it (07-18-2013 / 1:15PM-B). Hopefully this is the information you needed.


query: Does it work well on the beach in the sand?

pos: Oh yes! I live in hawaii and the beach is my favorite place to use this stroller. I mistakiny brought my bready once and wAs so mad at how it handled. We use bob almost everyday

pos: The longest we have pushed this stroller from the sidewalk to our spot on the beach is about 40-50 feet. I shouldn't say pushed, because we had to pull. The tires do not sit on top of the sand exactly, they sink a bit making it hard to push.

query: I bought on on ebay for $23.05. Did I do ok?

pos: If you bought that camera for 23.05 you did fantastic. It is a great camera. LOve it.

pos: Hi. This camera is great very good and compact. the selling price 6 years ago was $ 340 or so, one of the features is quee sde titanium, photos and videos are very good for someone who likes photography with this camera can start and is very easy to use by the amount you pay depends on the state you are in, the cameras used on amazon this to a much larger amount. I hope I have helped.

pos: That's a great deal. The camara is amazing. It has a big sensor so the photos looks terrific. I lost mine (stolen) so I bough a Canon SD90 (which is an upgrade for that model) otherwise I would still use SD900.

pos: yep, I still use mine and it takes great pics, great buy, especially at 23.05


query: When is the expried?

pos: Honey never expires. The "expiration date" on the jar is the date after which the honey cannot be sold. The honey itself is good forever.

pos: The expiration date on mine is May of 2016. There is also a batch number. Probably so it could be tracked if there was a recall or somthing. Hope that helps.

pos: Honey lasts forever. The honey they found buried in the pyramids is still good


query: Will it spread lime?

pos: I use the pelletized lime in mine. The only problem that I encounter is toward the end, when most of the lime is distributed, you have to stop and break up the chunks of lime and then continue. What I try and do is wait until I have an area that I can not get into with my tractor, and then use the chunks for distribution by hand. Other then that it works very well with the pelletized lime.

pos: It will spread lime just as long as it doesn't have chunks in it. It will not bust up chunks. It has a free flow opening that you set for whatever your spreading.

pos: Yes it will spread lime. I used pelletized lime that I purchased at Home Depot for abort $4.00 per bag. I constantly had to stop because the lime was caking on the sides and was not freely flowing through the distribution hole. I don't know if it was an inferior brand of lime that did not hold it's pelletized characteristics, or if the problem was with the spreader. In the future I will use my push spreader where it's easier to see what's happening and I can better control the situation.

pos: It will spread pelletized lime .Ag lime will cake as it is to fine to flow.


query: Will this work on Android Phones such as the new Nexus 5?

pos: Here's the link to their site. It says any bluetooth 4.0 enabled smart phone. However on their site it only mentions iPhone 4S and above. So, i'd maybe write their customer service and check. I'm an iPhone user so i never really paid attention to the information about Android. I do remember something about some issues with the app, or getting approval or some such. Here's their site: http://www.mioglobal.com/Shop/MIO-Alpha/product.aspx?productid=1&deptid;=1&pricecat;=2&gclid;=CKf-rqmJ3roCFYdFMgodMFQAEwhopefully it does, as it's a great product. :)

pos: As far as I know, no. It has something to do with Bluetooth 4.0 not fullly working on android phones.

pos: I think so, yes, but I dont know. Im not using its blue tooth option. Email the manufacturer.

pos: Unfortunately, I think the answer right now is "no, it will not." I was so excited about being able to finally ditch the dreaded strap that missed this little tidbit of information before purchasing Alpha at REI yesterday. Rude surprise when I got home! Mio website says that the "app development for Android is in process" but, for now, i think i'm going to have to return the watch. It's a shame because, besides lacking the backlight, i really like it!

pos: I believe android apps are being developed for the alpha, but currently (I think) only iphone apps are available

pos: The original problem with Android is that it did not support BLE for bluetooth 4.0. With the release of Android 4.3 BLE support has been added. Since the Nexus 5 has Android 4.4, the BLE support for bluetooth is there. The next question is then have the individual apps like Map my Ride and Endomondo been updated to take advantage of this new feature. If they have been then this will pair nicely. I do know that there is a least one app for Android that has this functionality, I just can't remember the name.


query: How does this work with wet food?

pos: It doesn't. It's for dry food only. I use different dishes for the wet food.

pos: Hi, I don't think that this would work for wet food. But there are dishes available that have nubs on the bottom that also make the cat work for their food. If you use a wet food that is minced rather than pate the bowl with the nubs on the bottom might work, it would just be messy because they have to use their paws. There is also an bowl that has a mound in the middle that would make it harder for the cat to eat quickly. Search under Amazon for 'slow feeding bowls'.

pos: Not good for wet food as this is a one piece unit - works very well for dry food


query: Is this press the mate to the 10.5 inch square grill pan or is there another choice?

pos: This would be too small for 10.5 inch pan unless you just wanted room on all four sides.

pos: Lodge says it will fit their round skillets that are 12" or larger. I haven't tried it.

pos: I bought the 10.5 inch grill pan and the 8.5 inch press together, and have been happy using them together. I preheat the grill pan with the press inside it, and add the buttered sandwich or steak after the pan and press are hot. The combination leaves really nice grill marks and helps make up for the fact that I don't grill outside in the dead of winter.


query: is it made in the usa

pos: My paperwork didn't say if it was made in the USA or not but these are excellent quality, I would recommend them to anyone I know. I have the measuring cups and the spoons. They are very sturdy, 18/10 stainless and I will be purchasing another set of them soon, as I cook and bake a lot and need another set of each. I would say that since they are backed by the Culinary Institute of America, they would be of the highest quality even if they are made somewhere else. These will last many lifetimes and will be handed down to my children's children.

pos: It does not say where they are made. Just Culinary Institute of America. High quality though.

query: is it the original 120 core colors as pictured? if they don't ship in one box, they shouldn't picture that way.

pos: It is misleading. There are all 120 colours, but they are shipped in two 48-count boxes and one 24-count box. In total, you get 120 different colours, even though they are shipped in this fashion.

pos: This question matters. I to would be infuriated if crayons came in more than one box. Omg. The nerve. However I can attest to he fact that each crayon snugly resides in one cozy box. No need to lose sleep, dear one.

pos: No not as pictured. It's almost a scam really. I notice now that they have another picture of how they are in smaller boxes.

pos: Yes, they actually are the original 120 core colors. It did come in the bigger box shown in the picture. But inside it were 3 smaller boxes (48, 48, 24). I was quite disappointed when I opened it and saw the 3 boxes but when I opened them and looked at the colors they were all different. I think they pack it as such for shipping purposes so the crayons don't break. Hope that clears it up for you :)


query: Questions: How long is the cord?

pos: 1. Cord is 75 inches or so. Starts a few inches off the ground. 2. I have it squeezed in a spot that is about 24 inches wide by 26 inches deep. That is the bare minimum. More important is that it needs about 30 inches of height to rotate properly. For me, that meant that I could not put it under the sink where the old pan was. It is a wonderful device and I love it. My cat loves it too. He runs to watch it when it starts up, sometimes pushes on the step to make it pause mid-cycle (it starts up again a minute or so after he gets off).


query: Will it allow power cord to be plugged in coming in from the back or front or both? I have 13-inch, Mid 2012 Macbook Pro.

pos: dear s n e....no, you cannot plugg in your powerr cord to the front or back...the powerr outlet is located on the left of the keyboard thus so is the hole for it on the ipearl mcover hard shell case...hope this is helpful

pos: The power cord can be plugged in just as if the case were not present. It does not hinder the approach of the cord, so plug away front or back!


query: Does this bungee cord fit on a childs small trampoline?

pos: Well I know that it fits the GALT trampoline. I'm not sure about the others. You could look at the dimensions and see if they are the same.

pos: Yes, seems to be the same one that came with the Gault. Mine is 29"x29" and has 24 eyelets.

pos: Yes. This is what we bought for our child's trampoline. Has lasted a long time.

pos: It will fit the galt brand trampoline, but if ita another brand, as long as its a square shaped trampoline that is not wider then your arm span it should work!

pos: yes..as long it is no bigger than the GALT square shaped one. I am sure it could be a different shape but the radius has to be teh same or smaller to make sure you have enough length. It is strong enough for 60-70 lbs


query: Does this work with Time Warner internet?

pos: No, this one will not work with Time Warner, they have there own modem they rent to the customers.


query: What are the measurements for this pouch clip ??

pos: The clip depth is 2 3/4". Internal width is about 2 9/16", internal height is 4 3/8".

pos: I'm not sure what the dimensions are but it's a tight fit for an iPhone. Anything bigger will not fit.


query: Where could I buy another usb cable? Or is there another way of downloading the images?

pos: It comes with one USB cable so you can use that to directly download from camera. But the media card in the camera works easy with a card reader. They can be bought anywhere. Walmart has them.

pos: Christina: Easiest way to download, without the cable, is to remove the card (postage stamp size, beside th e battery.) Most laptops, printers, and screens have a slot that it will slide right into. Then, if it doesn't pop right up, go "Computer" then look for a drive that looks like DCIM, or Panasonic, or Pictures. Click on that to open, then drag to the My Pictures folder.To get a new cable, you should take the camera to RadioShack or Best Buy as there are many different USB small-end plug sizes.

pos: any best buy, or radio shack should carry the cable you need, or panasonic.com

pos: The cable is a standard cable, which can be bought at any store carrying electronic products (eg. Radio Shack). I can't say whether it is micro USB or mini USB, take the camera with you to the store.


query: Does this properly fit a 2014 Polaris Ranger-400 MID SIZE UTV?

pos: Sorry I can't say, I used mine on a Polaris 800 Full size Ranger Crew 6 seater. Fit it perfect.


query: Can i disable the sensor and use as regular on/off switch dimmer?

pos: Yes, you disable the sensor totally and just use it manually by tapping it on or off.


query: Has anyone used TUF-GLIDE in it will it leak with that lubrication?

pos: I keep two of them in my kit (I'm a piano tuner). One has CLP which is a polymer lubricant / very fine. and the thicker Ballistol which is actually a mineral base gun cleaner that's used in piano applications. I don't think I've seen them leak yet and I've had them for months. Especially since I carry a vertical bag case and most of the time it's laying down on it's side along with the oilers. So I would say for most applications these work pretty good!


query: Do you have to use a screen protector on the infinity tablet w/ the stylus?

pos: No,I used the stylus on my T300 without the protector. The stylus has a soft tip that doesn't damage the screen. In fact it helps remove fingerprints.

pos: Yes, I have a screen protector on my tablet, but it's there for other reasons not related to the stylus. The stylus is great and will work just as well with the protector as it does without it. Best stylus I have used!

pos: i do not because the stylus is not abrasive. it should work just as well if you have a screen protector on the tablet though.

pos: A screen protector isn't needed. I kinda understand the question though. :) Looking at the picture, the stylus tip almost looks metal doesn't it? It's basically just fabric though, so no worries there.

pos: Yep. As a matter of fact I suggest you use it without a screen protector. It is a silky smooth experience.

pos: I do not use a screen protector on my Infinity tablet. I have never found one to my liking. The stylus is soft and non-abrasive and works fine directly on the tablet screen.

pos: I have used it both ways, with and without. It performs the same either way. You can't go wrong with this product. It is worth the extra cost in my opinion.


query: I'm assuming this will fit a Subaru Outback with wheel size P225/60 R17, I'm ordering Thule CL 10mm - 104-TH04255104

pos: I can only guess that it will fit for your exact set of tires. They fit my Michelin LX4 225/60R17 tires just fine and there were no clearance issues on the Sienna.


query: do you have to refrigerate it before using for cold foods

pos: No, but I've put ice water in to chill the bowl if I'm using it outside in the heat. It works great.


query: does it fit a colorado crew cab?

pos: Here is the link to the item on their website. It says it will fit the Colorado, but you can also call them an ask. Their customer service is pretty good. http://www.bestop.com/component/products/?view=product&id=55


query: how do i no what size door i need for my pet mate pet porter

pos: Suggest measuring your existing door and then confirm with the measurements on the replacement

pos: I measured across the widest width and the height and it worked out for me.

pos: Look to see if you have a model number somewhere on the Pet Porter. I found my model number on the top section above the door opening. If not, measure the cage and match the dimensions with the doors that fit that size


query: can i connect my assurance wireless account goverment to it

pos: Yes you can Lydia. Call them up and ask them to change phones for you. I had no problem doing it that way. 1-888-321-5880


query: Will this cable allow me to go from a dvd player to a monitor? The dvd player has a yellow composite out and the monitor has a vga female plug.

pos: No. I bought one to do the same thing, but it wasn't the correct item because it converts "FROM" VGA, not "TO" VGA. There is another device (it's powered and about the size of a cell phone - it also costs between $25-$35) that converts RCA signals (from your DVD player) to a VGA monitor. You need a VGA cord (both male ends) to connect your monitor to the converter. I am assuming you have an answer for the sound part, since a computer monitor has no sound, with external computer speakers. I needed a splitter that takes the white and red RCA cords (left and right channel sound) out of the DVD player and turns them into a female connector for a standard input/output mic-style jack for my computer speakers.


query: Do you have to use the "tracing paper" or will printer paper work?

pos: I used printer paper, and it worked fine! Just fine tune your "Ironing time" depending on how hot your iron gets. Seems all Irons are different! Good Luck with your Project


query: My AR-15 has the standard (basic) front sight block. Will the front sight interfere with the sight picture through the scope?

pos: I have not had any interference with the standard post front sight using this scope. I have the perp mount which help keep sight picture right in line

pos: Depends on your ring heigh. I would change it out for a flat top front and a pop up sight. You will love the scope combine. Best I have / used in a long time.

pos: i have a mini 14 so i´m not the most recomended source of information.what i can tell you that you may find usefull is the aproximated height from tha base to the objective center(aprox) is 45 milimeters. that´s about 1.7 or 1.8 inches. hope it helps. regards


query: Can you still hear the music/ringer with your Galaxy S3 in the armband?

pos: Sure, with my headphones but it's a bit muffled through the fabric. It's always set on vibrate so if I can't hear it I will always feel it vibrate.

pos: Yes, absolutely . in first instance when I' bought this armband was with the intention of protecting my device from water damage but definitely was a win win when I' star taking for jogging . Thanks

pos: Yes, absolutely . in first instance when I' bought this armband was with the intention of protecting my device from water damage but definitely was a win win when I' star taking for jogging .Thanks

pos: yes you can but it depends where you are though, if on the street then no problem, its better than in your pocket or in your bag, and you can feel the vibrations very well too.

pos: If you're asking with my headphones on, yes. It still sounds great and works without any problems with the hands free phones. If you're asking without headphones, I haven't tried. The face and back are covered, so I assume it would sound muffled.


query: Can this machine be used on clients at a spa or is it for private use ?

pos: You can use it for both. If you are going to use for clients you will need a sanitizer.


query: What is the length of the blade?

pos: About two and a half feet I believe. It was a gift so I don't have it with me now. It was a good size blade with a substantial grip and overall was a good value for the price. I think you would like it very much if you could see it in person.


query: My OD is (sph -3.25/cyl -1.0 )and OS(sph -3.25/ cyl -0.75). How should I choose the googles?

pos: Remember these are basically keeping water out of your eyes and not for reading. I chose the prescription that was closest to my actual prescripton and they work very well. I have no issues with fogging if I put a little surface tension reducer (spit) inside then rinse them out.

pos: -3 ought to work. They are not going to be perfect- they are not custom googles but are just going to be better than non-prescription!

pos: Click SELECT in the ad and you'll see options available. Choose the one that is closest to your degree. In your case, -3 or -3.5.

pos: The lenses in these are not as sophisticated as the ones you would get from an optometrist. Consider the price! As a rule, I normally go down rather than up, so in your case I would get -3 (rather than -3.5)


query: Does it come with extra blades. If not, do the scissors dull?

pos: No, it came with no extra blades. I've used it mostly on cloth but also on paper and cardboard. No sign of dulling yet. The motor will slow down on cardboard, but it keeps on moving.


query: will this work with all Haier Air Conditioner

pos: It should, I don't see why not it worked with my ac unit which wasn't listed


query: Will it cover the gear shift of a Hummer H3?

pos: Well, that's a good question. I bought one for my 2006 MX-5 (Miata) and as it turns out it doesn't zip all the way down. So it really doesn't fit my gear shift. Miatas have a short "throw" -- that's probably why. I guess you'll have to take a chance. Otherwise, it's a nice quality, very padded, which makes it a little big for my hands.

pos: Don't know about a Hummer. We ordered it for a 1983 Porsche and it didn't fit.


query: Are there any drivers to install from a CD?

pos: Sonicport is for use with Ipad. It is not set up to use with any desktop/laptop computer. Sonicport operates with an app that is free from the apple App Store. So the answer is no there are no drivers that are needed to run it on an iPad


query: how do I install 40595 sewer pluming vent

pos: What was suggested to me was to go to a hardware store and find a PVC pipe that will fit in side the vent. Then using a union join the pipe to your stack and join the vent to the PVC pipe. In theory the vent should work but I did not find that to be the he case. Perhaps I was expecting a more dramatic venting.

pos: On mine, I had to scrape off the roof coating the was covering the screws of the old vent, then remove those screws and take off the old vent. That exposed the vent pipe. You simply slide this sewer vent over the vent pipe (be sure to put the bottom cover on the Cyclone vent first), lift the cover as high as possible so you can attach the Cyclone vent to the vent pipe with two small screws that comes with it, then allow the cover to drop down to cover the vent pipe hole in the roof. Be sure to seal around the cover so that water doesn't get in. It was actually very easy for me and works great!

query: How do I attach this product to my tripod? The screw on the tripod seem bigger than the hole for the rail.

pos: Hi there, 35mm camera bodies accept a 1/4" diameter, 20 thread-count screw while most tripod heads attach to the tripod column with a 3/8" diameter, 16 thread-count screw. If you are mounting the rail directly on the column, you need to get an adapter 3/8" to 1/4" which you find on Amazon for a few dollars. Have fun, Moreno

pos: Timothy, I have no problem attaching the Rail 4 Fotodiox to the tripod's screw. There are two holes at the base plate that can be used equally to connect the rail to it.You may want to check and make sure that it will fit on another tripod just in case the one you are using now is not working properly. Make sure you attach the rail first, then the camera to it.

query: I need to find out before I buy this.....the 12' one with 6 poles, does it also fit the 3 section ones? Upper Bounce Trampoline Enclosure Safety Ne

pos: If you have 3 legs that are shaped kind of like the letter "U" it theoretically should work. But I found (even after confirming diameters with this company) that the diameter of the clamps to attach the poles on the net, to the legs of the trampoline did not work on my older, wider-poled JumpKing. I ended up buying much longer screws to reach, and cut up a hula hoop (splitting the plastic sections lengthwise) to use as shims. I will try to upload a photo to show my work-around.


query: My dog's neck is 16" but girth is 28", 50 lbs. I think the large would be better than the medium?

pos: DD, The Kurgo harness didn't fit our dogs who sound like a similar build. I don't know the exact dimensions but our 65 pounder has a 17" neck, a huge deep chest, and a long and lanky everything else. The harness just didn't fit right. It gapped and sagged in too many places and we ended up returning it and choosing a different type of harness. The construction seemed good but it just wasn't right for our boys.

pos: My mutt has the same measurements as your dog (28" girth, 16" neck, 47 lbs) and the Large fits him fine.

pos: Our Irish Setter weighs in at 58 lb (smallish for the breed). 16" neck, 32" deep chest. The large works for his chest - somewhere in the mid range of adjustment, but even when made its shortest the neck loop is so big I can fit my forearm through in addition to his neck. This is not proportioned for Setters and other deep chested, thin-necked dogs. When he leans into the chest pad with the leash attached to the back loop he seems comfortable, but if you attach to the front loop it all slips and slides and is pretty useless.

pos: My dog is 46 lbs, with a 17" neck and 28" girth. We use the Medium, have it on her loosely and have about an inch to spare on letting it out. A large would be too big for her. We have also used it for our 55 lb, 18" neck and 29" girth boy.Hope that helps!

pos: If you are going to get this harness, I would go with the large. My 26 pound pug mix fits in the medium with just a little extra, but my 50 pound pitty can't even get it over her head. This harness also stretches out quite a bit when worn, and needs constant adjustment to stay secure. So if you are using for a dog who is a little crazy(like my pug) and you need it to stay fitted on him correctly, you might want to go with a different harness.


query: can i use it neck place?

pos: it might be kind of a sensitive area to use it, but it does come with smaller strips to remove from smaller spots. it depends on the hair i think. if the hair there is very fine it may not work as well. good luck.


query: The PRoduct Description says "Black/silver only" but the product offers a color selection. Does this set (age 9-12) come in the red?

pos: The youth set which is for ages 9-12 (realistically ages 9-10) comes in black, red and royal. The Jr Youth set which is for ages 7-9 only comes in black. all sets have the silver accents.

pos: Hello Tracy,This set comes in black and silver only. We will have the information updated on Amazon. Kind Regards,ElsieCustomer Service RepresentativeS&S; Worldwide


query: screen phone works with 4.5?

pos: I have a iPhone 4S. It fits my phone easily. I am not sure about the new iPhone 5


query: can i'm use this on spring ande summer?

pos: You wouldn't want to use it in summer because it is very warm. You would use the regular seat cover which comes with the bugaboo.

pos: no this is only made for winter when its cold, but you can use it for cold spring


query: Are the 4 rubber pieces to place on the legs?

pos: Yes, but you don't have to put them on because they make the rack higher then usual. It's up to you to put them on or not.

pos: Yes, they are. They don't push all the way over the metal part. I left them off since it then made it too high. When I put something tall like a coffee pot in the rack it hits the cabinet above. (small kitchen). I got the spray plastic to coat the legs so it wouldn't slide on the granite counter.


query: Could I put a camelbak in the laptop and feed the water tube through the "audio" hole?

pos: You could put a camelback in the laptop space but there's no place for the water tube to go through, unless you left the zipper open a little bit.


query: What is the difference between the size "reg" and "regular"- why are there two? Are either the women's version of this mattress?

pos: There's no difference between reg and regular - the only difference is the thickness 1.0, 1.5, 2.0. Also no difference for men or women. The regular fits a 6'' person.


query: Is this unit a 110 or 210, that is not in the product description.


query: Does this have an XLR output for each mic or just one?

pos: Just one output. Each mic has its own volume control, but both feed into the same output.

pos: Only one output for both microphones. It does have a volume control for each.


query: will they work with singer futura quartet? class 15j?

pos: My machine is a Brother. I would suggest you consult your machines manual for correct size.


query: What kind of battery does it use?

pos: Yup, thanks Chauncy. The TimeStick does use a CR2032 battery that actually comes with it and you just install it when you open the packaging. 8)


query: May I know if these refills are suitable for 'Parker Urban Premium Chiseled Medium Point Ballpoint Pen'? Is this the 1.0M model?

pos: I think you can make shure by the ISO code that is 12757-2. It has Point 1.0 M which indicate that it has Medium Point. (0.7 indicaties Fine Point) I made a picture for you, but I do not see a link to connent it to this answer. It has a writing length of approx. 3,500 meters. It write very smooth. The price is very Nice.

pos: The refill should be suitable since the Parker Urban Premium Chiseled Medium Point Ballpoint Pen uses a standard Parker refill, which this refill is. There is no mention of the writing thickness on the refill except," Medium Point'; in my opinion the writing thickness is 0.7mm and not 1.0mm.


query: Why is there is no date the casings were packaged or expiration date on the package? Where was it made and the company contact information?

pos: I assume dates do not matter because anything packed in salt can last "forever". The rest I do not know.


query: hi! do the die cast cars fit here?

pos: The cars fit good for the track. They are really small though and you can't put any other car on the track but my 3 year old loves it! So I'd buy it again.

pos: Yes but as mentioned the are very small and hard to keep track off. No other cars fit on the track. However, my grandsons loved it but not sure where the cars are at this point. Bought it at Christmas time..


query: Will i fit the large cart at Costco?

pos: I can't answer this for sure, but I really do not think it will. It fits easily into a "regular" cart but there is really no extra room. I have never shopped at Cosco so I am not sure about the size of the carts. Sorry.

pos: It should fit. As others said... it is a stretch. I have found that the cart helper is too deep for certain carts though. Costco and Central Market are a few. I prefer the cart helper to touch the bottom of the cart or get close to touching. Otherwise, it doesn't fit as many items as it could.

pos: It will fit up in the front of the cart, but it is a stretch. This company also makes others sizes and products that really help you to be more "green". They also go into the washer! I do not, however, put mine in the dryer.


query: older toddlers? I have a 17 mth old. she loves to dance and bounce...would this toy be to "young" for her?

pos: Hi, I just bought this for my 18 month old and I was worried about him outgrowing it too soon also and it being too young, but he adores it... but the surprise was...so does his SIX year old brother LOL. Ok, it's not going to hold the six year old's attention for very long, but he got on it and bounced around. The weight of the child pushes the zebra down and allows it to spin (if she were standing next to it w/o pushing down, it would not move round) so by sitting on it my 6 year old spun himself in one full circle just to 'see if he could'. They say the age goes up to about 36 months and the weight capacity is 43 lbs (my 6 year old is 41 lbs, just went to the annual checkup) It has been fun for the little one and is something nice and active for him to do now that the weather has turned cold and we can't go outside. I've spent more money on things we've used for a shorter amount of time and I really like this product :)


query: Suitable for use with video camcorders such as the Canon XA10?

pos: I wish I could give you an accurate answer but I can't. I have not tried it in my camcorder. It looks like it might be fast enough but I can not say for sure. Maybe you could check with Canon support.

pos: I don't know what that camcorder is so I cannot answer that question. It's a standard 64G SD memory card, not mini or micro...somewhere on the web it should say what it is compatable with. Sorry


query: Can you use it in either direction(blow in, blow out) without turning the whole fan around?

pos: Hi Lisa. Yes, this fan does have an exhaust and fresh air switch. So you can place it in the window and switch the direction of air flow with out moving the fan. I would warn you that I think this is a poorly made fan. I know it was difficult to find this size fan, but I would look around for another brand.

pos: you don't have to turn the fan around. it blows in and out, also you can have one blade blowing in and the other blowing out.

pos: Yes, the direction of the fan can be changed just by pressing a button on the fan or the remote. No complaints on this at all. Still using it every day and not a problem.


query: What all comes in the box?

pos: You get both pieces of the case (Black rubberish part+Color Frame) along with 3 home button covers. Unlike other SPIGEN cases that come with a screen protector, this one does not.


query: is this helpful for snoring

pos: I think it helps my husbands snoring greatly. He used to sound like a train now it more of a soft snuffle:)

pos: My first response to your question was yes, if put it over his face. I really not sure if will help snoring.


query: on a scale from 1 to 10 how good is this proudcut and do u get everthing it showes

pos: Natalie, I would rate this product a 8, the feather extensions are very pretty, yes, you get everything it shows, the only thing I was not happy with, were the pliers for crimping the micro bead. They are curved and I am used to using a straight one. the curved one is usable, so I am not returning it. I do fairs and festivals and I sure customers will be more than happy with the colors of the extensions.

pos: Yes, you do get everything shown. Though the feathers are a bit on the cheap side.


query: Do we have to rotate the trays

pos: I use mine commercially for numerous items. I find I get more even drying by rotating trays.

pos: Couldn't tell you when I went to use the hydrator it didn't work. Wouldn't buy this product.

pos: I am not aware of a practice of tray rotating. I did notice that the top two shelves don't get the same amount of heat as the rest. Although, my unit is currently returned for repair as the fan quit working. It's cost me an additional $55.00. I'm not so happy about this.

pos: We have only used it to dehydrate fruit so far and we did not have to rotate the trays. Worked just fine without moving them around.

pos: I haven't had to rotate them. I did tons of tomatoes last year and all the trays all had the same results. I did notice that thicker ones did take a little longer but it was no problem. Also noticed it didn't take as long as the directions said. I love mine. Hope you like yours as well.


query: too warm on foam pad: Any ideas about dealing with the problem?

pos: I had the same prob. The manufacturer suggested an extra mattress pad on top. I put two and it worked like a charm!


query: Hardware locked or not? Is this System Builder license locked to a single PC (i.e. motherboard) or can be activated on another PC configuration after upgrade?

pos: Windows 8 can be transferred to new hardware; it just needs to be re-activated. Here's my recent experience... I did a clean install of Windows 8 64-bit System Builder on a dated computer. Everything worked great- I was happy. I then successfully activated Windows 8. About a month later I decided that I wanted to build an almost entirely new system. I bought a new mainboard, processor & memory combination. I then took my original hard drive with Windows 8 already installed & activated on it, and I connected it to the newer components I assembled. Everything worked great- I was happy. Except Windows 8 needed to be re-activated. I tried re-activating by Internet and was instructed onscreen to activate by phone instead. I called the phone number displayed and was immediately connected to an automated telephone system. The automated voice asked me to read aloud 5 or 6 sets of numbers which were on my screen, or I could use the phone keypad to enter in the same information. I elected to read the sets of numbers aloud, and Microsoft's automated system accepted this information without any problems. I believe it was at this time that the automated voice asked me how many computers I had installed this on. I said "one" and the automated system affirmed that answer. The system then said it would give me 5 or 6 sets of brand new numbers which I would need to type into my system. This is all done on the same screen within Windows 8 on which I had originally tried to re-activate. The automated voice stated the numbers clearly and I typed them into their respective entries onscreen. The voice then affirmed that Windows 8 was now activated. That's it! In this situation, I didn't need to speak with an actual person, but some situations may require speaking directly to a Microsoft Customer Service Rep. I'm not certain how many times this procedure can be easily repeated. I'm thinking about switching to a solid state drive in the near future. I'm guessing I might need to re-activate Windows 8 again when I do. I hope this helps!


query: does it have an automatic shut-off

pos: The manual says it does: "This popper is thermostatically controlled. It will shut off to prevent overheating, if the popping chamber is overfilled or if the popper is used for continuous popping for extended periods of time without turning it off and allowing it to cool." So if it gets overheated it'll shut off, and then you have to unplug it for 15 mins. But if you leave it plugged in after you're done popping, i'm not sure what'll happen.

pos: Mine has shut off when it has overheated. It would not start again until it had cooled to a completely-off temperature, which at least once took an hour or more.


query: is this kit for one person only?

pos: it doesn't have to be, there is a lot of straw in the kit, and you could technically make it so 2-4 people have to suck to get liquid if you wanted to. the possibilities are quite endless.

pos: It would depend upon the person. lots and lots of pieces, but a limited number of each type. I had to buy a second set so that we had enough elbow and curved connections so that both grandkids could construct the crazy big straws they wanted. They love the endless variations.


query: Is it good for 220 Volts?

pos: Hi,Israel electricity based on 220 volts. The clipper is 120 volts and it burned after 10 seconds. Do you have the same clipper at 220 volts?

pos: Thanks Yves-As it turns out, I did not load the Saitek drivers. I don't know if loading them would make any difference, but the yoke seems to be working perfectly.

pos: This is what I found on the Saitek forum (http://www.saitekforum.com/showthread.php?t=13941). There does seem to be a fix, in essence, do not load the Saitek drivers and let FS recognize the new device and a couple of other recommendation about controls 9, 10 and 11 and about adjust the config file. I am in the same situation (Nov. 2011) as Android and I guess I will go ahead and buy it. Will post the results of the experiment.Regards, Yves.

pos: MadCatz (aka Saitek) is notorious for low quality products so if you buy this expect that it probably last you a year, maybe two if you're very, very lucky. Unfortunately they're really the only one in the game for inexpensive flight yokes.


query: is there a way to confirm calibration?

pos: Yes, if your vehicle's speedometer is accurate. Just point the radar gun at a fixed object while your vehicle is moving, and compare the reading with the speedometer.

pos: Only in lab. With fixed known speed...or if you have a friend in law enforcement you can do a side by side comparison


query: I am confused. One of the answers states that the top of the top step is 23" - a reviewer says 16" - which is correct?

pos: I just went and measured mine. From bottom to very top of step is 23 inches

pos: Amazon has combined the questions and answers for the 2 and the 3 step models. (Which have different measurements.) Very unhelpful and confusing, Amazon!


query: Can I charge it in Europe using 220V?

pos: It can charge from any wall adapter or computer (slower) with a USB port or micro USB plug. So as long as the source works with 220v you'll be fine.


query: I wear 34*34 pants, what size you that be? Thanks!!

pos: I wear a 34x36 jean and ordered a size L in these ski pants and they fit great. Not a problem having a little extra length in a ski pant. You will love them.


query: will this work with Part No: 41A5021-1H-315????

pos: Those sensors will work on the older board. they wire the same but do not mount the same. you will need 1/4" carriage bolts in order to mount them correctly


query: I assume it is an animal leather, from which animal in specific?

pos: Malik, I honesty can't say what animal. The case I got was pink - I have several cases made by Blason that I use for my Blackberry Z10. I like changing my phone covers but always make sure that it survives a drop on the floor and all the Blason cases do. I hope this helps.


query: does it work on a mac

pos: This doesn't but you can look for the MAC version is also available in Amazon
