query: Would this backpack work well for College also? To carry books when needed, and to then use to travel when the time comes?

pos: You might check out the Osprey Porter 46. It is a larger bag, but has two buckle positions which allow it to compress well for small loads. Suspension is not as sophisticated as the Farpoint but it's OK.

pos: I think it's too big and not really suited to just slinging over your shoulder on the way to class. A cheap backpack from Walmart would make more sense.

pos: I think it would be fine for both purposes. Sure you would be carrying around a slightly larger pack for college than some other folks, but then you would already have a great pack for traveling that can be used as a carry-on bag.

pos: It may be a bit too much to carry around for college classes. It's a rather large bag for just books and a laptop.

pos: It is a great pack, but it is just big enough for travel purposes that it would be overkill for everyday use.


query: Does this have an inline volume / mute button?

pos: Don't know about a mute, bit it does have a volume control. I like the headset a lot.

pos: Yes!, there's a "dongle", a small box around 18 inches below the earpiece. The dongle contains a volume control for the earpiece, a 3-position volume setting for the microphone, a mute slider to mute the microphone, and a green/red indicator to show whether the microphone is muted (red) or live (green).

pos: yes, it has both, you can mute yourself on the call (and talk some smack on the person...teehee!) and adjust the volume. I like it, I can get alot done when I have my headset on

pos: Yes, it does. I've now used it for months and love it. From their website: "You will appreciate the secure fit, and conveniently located one-touch listening/speaking volume control and mute when juggling multiple tasks at home. "


query: I need something to prevent my extension cord from disconnecting from my yard blower when using it. Will this "lock" the cords together?

pos: Honestly I don't know, but I don't think so. It probably depends on how much tugging and the characteristics and fit of the two cords that you are connecting. That used to happen to me when doing yard work, then I saw that my husband would loosely tie the extension cord onto the blower handle and then plug it in so there is no tension on the plug and it stays plugged in.

pos: Yes it will, plug the cords together and then screw the connector ends together for a snug hold. Works great and is weather proof.

pos: may I suggest that you just tie the cords together? Grab the plugs (already connected) and with both wires together, gently tie a big knot. THe strain will then be on the cords and not on the plug. Save yourself money and time

pos: yes it does lock the cords together, and keeps the connection dry as well. I like the ease of use. I use it to keep my dogs water dish plugged into an extention cord so her water won't freeze. planning on buying a couple extras for other projects.

pos: No it will not keep the cords fastened. The unit is not very tight fitting. I pulled on it a little too hard and it became separated. If left alone it stays together. We normally tie a loose knot with the two plugs and then connect them.

pos: Well, I would say that this device will "hold" extension cords together. Lock? Don't think so. I bought it to protect and extension connection to a heated water hose from the inclement weather elements.

pos: Yes it will lock them if you make sure the grooves on the cords are secure in the groves on this divise when you plug it in.


query: does this phone have a headset jack

pos: It doesn't and the volume is not high enough. I prefer the old silver and black version of it.

pos: Not It doesn't. I like The old silver versión better than this one, it doesn't volume is not high enought!


query: Is one of the top panels mesh, not solid? If yes, how can it be used outdoors if raining?

pos: yes... actually I believe two sides are - opposite of each other. I don't use this outdoors. We set it up in the house for play. You would definetly have to cover it up. I don't know how it would hold up in the rain.

pos: This tent is very lightweight and probably is only intended for indoor use if they gust of wind comes by it would probably fall over

pos: Yes it is mesh. This is a child's toy not camping equipment. I suggest you either,1. Keep shopping or2. Snap it closed and take it inside when it rains.


query: does print shop 3.5 work with windows 8.1?

pos: It is supposed to work with Windows 8.1 and that's what I have on my computer. I just couldn't get this version of Print Shop to do anything for me. I don't think it was the operating system but rather the software. It is horrible, they removed many of the options that the older version Print Shop had. I was so disappointed in it that I don't even try to use it anymore. I managed to get my old version downloaded onto the 8.1 and I am happier with it. I prefer to deal with the occasional glitch from system incompatibility. I really hated the new version of Print Shop and would have returned it if I could have. Print Shop should be ashamed for releasing that version.


query: I currently have the Nikon D90 with some good lenses, will these lenses work on D7000 also?

pos: Yes, they also suit for D7000. Actually D7000 is the upgrade version of D90.


query: what type of batteries are needed

pos: The battery for the slim exterior "bell push" is provided in the package. You will, however, need four "C" cell alkaline batteries for the interior "Chime" portion. All batteries are simple to install. I chose not to permanently mount my exterior bell push and used the sticking strip provided - it is weatherproof and has stayed put through intense FL heat and blowing rain. I also did not permanently mount the interior chimes - it is in a cabinet. Now I never miss the UPS guy or a neighbor at the door! Would buy again!

pos: It requires 4 "C" batteries. I love this door bell. Haven't and any problems with this.

pos: CR2032 battery for bell push (for chime kit only)4 X LR14 `C' Alkaline batteries for the actual doorbell chimeHope that helps. Its really easy to pop-off cover and install new batteries, as well. And its nice and loud.


query: does it come with a link sping to attach the two beds

pos: Very good question. No, there is not a link spring to attach the pop up trundle to the day bed. The trundle and polydeck mattress support on the day bed are of the highest quality and are quite stable when placed against one another. Thank you!

pos: No it did not. We have used bungie cords to hold the two together when wanting a King size bed.

pos: Very good question.No, there is not a link spring to attach the pop up trundle to the day bed.The trundle and polydeck mattress support on the day bed are of the highest quality and are quite stable when placed against one another.Thank you!

pos: no it does not, but using king size sheets and mattress pad, it will stay together


query: how do you connect the x-box 360 Kinect to the tv

pos: dont know but i doubt it's very hard. ask google or youtube, they have just about everything.


query: Can someone tell me what the ingredients are? Person above asked, but got diff answers. One says lactose the other doesn't.. help?

pos: I am reading the bottle as I write. Ingredients: lactose, Aspergillus cryzae fermentation product dehydrated (alpha-amylase), Aspergillus niger fermentation product dehydrated (both cellulase and lipase), pineapples, stem and fruit (Bromelain).

pos: It does have lactose and iother ingredients that have been wonderful for my poodle, she had gas and tummy pains before I started her on this excellent product and they are gone completely. I do recommend it.

pos: INGREDIENTS are listed on the bottle but I have listed them for you. Lactose, Aspergillus Oryzae Fermentation Product Dehydrated, Aspergilus Riger Fermentation Product Dehyrated, Pineapples (stern, fruit).

pos: The product I received has lactose as first ingredient. I would prefer it did not have lactose.

pos: Prozyme Plus is lactose free. It is made from vegetable matter whereas the original Prozyme is includes dairy. It is thought that cats and some dogs are more sensitive to milk/dairy products so you can use Prozyme Plus. I have used both types as a supplement for my cats and did not notice that one was better than the other. The product did help one cat who had digestive problems with loose, bad smelling stools. He is older and was quite skinny but seems to have gained a little weight since I started using Prozyme. I have been using this product for about 10 months.

pos: The ingredients listed on the bottle are: Lactose; Aspergillus oryzae; Aspergillus niger and pineapples. As I said, my friend uses it on her goldens and they live nice long lives, into their teens.


query: Will this work on an acrylic tub and surround?

pos: I used it on my acrylic shower pan and it covered well and holds up fine, so far at least. That was about a year ago.Do make sure everything is very clean, as recommended in the instructions.


query: I read that once you roll Therm-a-Rest Trail Scout it will have "18 to 20 inches in diameter." WOW ! - Isn't it a tad too much for camping?

pos: The diameter is only about 6 inches when it is rolled up and deflated. I think I already answered this question from another user.

pos: It depends on what you prefer. Ive gotten Mine down to about 8-10 diameter when rolled, 18-20 sounds like someone tried rolling when inflated...which is a bad idea. Its basically on your ability to remove as much air as possible Before stowing... I hammock camp tho so I need pads to keep warm from heat loss thru convection. However whan backpacking its more efficient to fold the pad upon itself a few times and shove against the back of the pack or at the bottom.. the roll method takes up too much valuable space in a pack. Hope this helps!

pos: After deflating and folding correctly then rolling, the mat fits into the little bag nicely. It's probably 18 inches long but maybe an 8 in diameter (I didn't check the dimensions for accuracy when I responded to you but I'm sure I am close in my approximation).


query: How does this compare with other products for joint pain relief?

pos: Bone-Up was recommended to me by a Nurse Practioner 4 years ago when I was first diagnosed with minimal osteoporosis. I have always been somewhat calcium deficient so was not surprised. I have been taking the product since. Upon having another bone density test taken recently, I discovered that my bone density has remained the same. I consider this a triumph as I am now a post-menopausal woman. I am now taking the Ultra Formula of Bone-up to see if I can improve my bone density.

pos: Howard, I have used this product for several years primarily as a Calcium supplement for osteoporosis prevention. Fortunately I have never had joint pain so I can't really help you with a comparison to other products since I've not ever used any others. I use Cod liver oil and Emergen-C also which also would help with joint pain (if I had it) and may be the reason why I've never had joint pain. I also work out at the gym 3x a week. Sorry I can't help with a more productive response.

pos: I have injuries which could cause pain but I don't have any. I am mainly taking this along with jarrosil for osteoporosis.

pos: I've tried CosiminD, knox joint powder, a Costco brand, instaflex and a couple others. The ultra bone up had a great independent rating so I tried it. Had joint pain relif in 3 weeks and has worked great. (Stopped once and the pain came back in a week)

pos: I have not really noticed any joint pain relief. I have worn out knees. I use this for bone density. I take two of these every morning, and another calcium supplement at night that doesn't have the joint stuff.

pos: I don't have joint pain, I used it to increase bone density and it has done that.


query: What type of cord would you need that connects this camera to a TV so you can play back the videos?

pos: It comes with it a coaxial yellow and white and red for audio It is also available a hdmci


query: Does this tea have any caffeine?

pos: Yes, it does; if you want non-caffeine, they also make an herbal hot cinnamon spice tea. I bet it's just as good.

pos: I believe it does but, not as much as coffee. Only about 40 mg, as apposed to 100 mg in coffee

pos: It doesn't indicate on the container if it has caffeine or not. My assumption is that it is not decaf. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

pos: There are decaffeinated and caffeinated versions of this tea. Both are good. The caffeinated is a little better tasting but if caffeine gets to you, the decaf is very good. I love this tea. Remember that decaf has small amounts of caffeine (I think it is 2-3%).


query: what are the features. As can be expanded up.

pos: The features of the one I am selling used: Mobile Precision M6500, Carbide Silver / Intel Core i7 Processor / 8.0GB, DDR3-1066 SDRAM, 4 DIMM / Internal Backlit English Keyboard / ATI FirePro M7740, 1.0GB DDR5 Discrete for M6500 / 256GB Dell Mobility Solid State Hard Drive / 17" UltraSharp WUXGA (1920x1200) RGB LED Display / Microphone / Genuine Windows 7 Professional64-bit, English / Dell Wireless 365 Bluetooth 2.1 / 210W 3-Pin, AC Adapter / 8X DVD+/-RW slot load / Dell WLAN 1510 (802.11a/b/g/n 2X3) 1/2 MiniCard / Resource DVD with Diagnostics and Drivers for Mobile Precision M6500 / Dell Waranty until 4/5/2013

query: is this work with window 7 computers?

pos: Yes, I believe it works with windows xp sp3, vista, 7, and 8. I've used it on 7 and 8. Also works for Mac

pos: Yes. It uses USB port, so it should work just fine, provided you have compatible software.


query: sizing chart for gavin bike shoe

pos: I saw the chart that came up on the shoe and it said 45 was 10 and then my wife called and they said it was size 11. so just make sure you know which shoe is the correct size for you.

pos: They are in euro sizes. I ware size 11 and I ordered size 46. Slightly big but made all the difference in the world I love these shoes.

pos: They run very true to size. I wear a size 9 which is a 42. Do not go big! Any EUR to USA CONVERSION CHART will work. It is an exccellet shoe.


query: Has anyone used this to support their backs for nursing?

pos: I bought this support when I was pregnant. It was awful. I don't think it would work super well for nursing. You may be reclined too far back.

pos: I have not used it for that purpose, but I would think it would work fine for nursing as you would be sitting straight up the same as you would be in a sofa or a park bench.

pos: I haven't, but I wish I had had it when I had babies - I think it would have been perfect!


query: Is this a powered mixer?

pos: It has no internal amp, if that's what you mean. So you have to amp your output or use "powered" speakers, which is how I run it.

pos: No. You either need to output to powered speakers, or feed this pre-amp into a power amplifier (that in turn will drive unpowered speakers). This is just a mixer and pre-amp. (And a fine one for the money, IMO. I've been very happy with my purchase.)


query: What does Nylon flock really mean? I just received this blanket and it says Nylon with insulated base. What is "insulated base"?

pos: The insulated base appears to be merely a foam sheet that the nylon is flocked onto. All I know for sure is that once you have one of these blankets, you'll love it. I keep mine on the bed year round...it's perfect!! Easy to wash/dry, light weight, just perfect. Who cares about the specifics....I LOVE this blanket!!!


query: does food stick to this pan?

pos: If you use it according to instructions ( preheat pan, medium heat) than food doesn't stick. If you use high heat, it might stick initially. Pan is very easy to clean.

pos: Not if you follow the directions. Although, I find it's best to put some water in it overnight. The next day it comes out beautifully without having to use scrubbers. I also dry it immediately after washing to eliminate water spots. I love my skillet.

pos: I haven't any problems with it, though it's not non-stick. Read somewhere that one good technique is to rub a little oil on the pan, shake in some Kosher salt and rub it in, then oil slightly again. Things sure do not stick with that. They suggested wiping it dry after, rather than washing it, to avoid needing to re-treat, but I'm not so keen on that notion. I really like my Cuisinart cookware.


query: Would this be too much to power a pair of cerwin vega xls 28s? And will an old sony reciever work with this as a pre amp?

pos: i am not familiar with those speaker / i use Klipsch Heresey but they are inefficient so check the power rating for the cerwins online.

pos: Nope, I have it running a pair of VE-12's, which are a bit more than the xls 28. It is better to have more power than you need than less and turn it up to clipping. I assume you mean using the old sony receiver as a pre-amp. I don't think it will work as that, as the sony won't have the correct output. I have mine running off an external sound blaster card, into a gemini PA-7000 as a pre-amp, then into the CV-900. Just be careful turning it up too loud, as this will put out more power than the xls's can handle. Your Sony would be the receiver, then you would need the pre-amp, then into the cv-900.

pos: This is not the type of amp to use for home audio, yes your speakers can handle the wattage, remember you want a lot of watts, not for noise but true solid sound at low output also. No your old sony receiver will not work as a preamp for this unit, it is a DJ style amp. Great to daisy chain, etc.. Honestly your best option is find a great condition Carver MXR2000 or MXR130 it will push cerwin xls215's towers to glass breakage!

pos: Hi Tyler, If the Cerwin Vega XLS 28s are powered subwoofers, then you don't need to feed them all that power compared to if your subwoofers were passive (none powered), then you can connect the power amp to feed them. Providing the pair w/ 210 watts rms a piece. And yes, you can use your Sony receiver as a pre-amp using Pre-Outs or Tape Outs. Hope this helps.


query: Does this have titanium dioxide or zinc in iy.

pos: OK, I found that it is the Neutragena Sun Block. I do not see that it contains either of those ingredients. See http://www.neutrogena.com/product/ultra+sheer-+dry-touch+sunscreen+broad+spectrum+spf+30.do?sortby=ourPicks


query: Is the product 75 strands as the illustration shows or 50 as the text imples?

pos: There are different kinds of floss that Thornton sells. There is the periodontal floss which has 50 pre-cuts strands.This is a thick floss for under bridges, braces. They also sell the 3in1 floss which is thin for bewteen teeth. I only know the periodontal comes in 50 strands however you should check Thornton.com

pos: I never paid any attention. The reason I ordered it was because my Dentist recommended it, and, it is good.


query: where are these knives (Belden series) made? china? and it says steak knives are forged, hoa about the rest of them, are they forged

pos: I believe all the knives in this set are forged. They all look like the steak knives. As to where these were made, have no clue anymore, threw the packaging away when I decided to keep the knives. They are really good knives, no matter where they were made.


query: how much space is needed behind the chair to the wall in order to recline?

pos: I would say 17-20 inches. I have the chair in a corner of the room and the top of the chair is 17" from the wall. This allows me to fully extend the recliner.


query: Can you clean ceiling fans with this duster?

pos: Yes, you can clean ceiling fans with this. It locks in different positions. Pad also comes off for easy cleaning.

pos: Yes, you could, but I think there are much better products for that purpose. You can buy a tool designed specifically to clean ceiling fan blades at Lowe's or Home Depot.

pos: Yes. We have 10 foot ceilings and my husband uses this once a month to dust the fan blades. He does use a step stool so he doesn't have to reach as far.

pos: It's a very efficient ceiling fan duster, for a cheap price. The fan in our house were not cleaned in probably 2 years (we recently bought the house). This duster picked up all the dust AND didn't spread it around the room or on furniture directly overhead. I also reviewed the product.


query: Were do you get updates for this once you get one ?

pos: Chinese retailer geekbuying releases stock updates but much better roms are at developer website freaktab.com. New rom based on sdk2 will be out soon.

pos: No OTA. But do as the other person says. Visit freaktab.com---That will answer all your questions.

pos: Ther is an option in the about software section where you can go and check if there is any new updates available.. Let me know if that answers your question


query: Does the touch gestures (swiping left and right) work also on Win7?

pos: Yes it does! The m600 is meant to run on Windows 7 so all functionality is present

pos: Touch gestures work for swiping left and right, it could be used for browser back and forward button. I use Win8 and works out of box, I am sure it should work for 7...This mouse might feel different in the beginning but once u get used to it, u will love it


query: neck and girth measurements please?

pos: Both the neck and girth straps are quite adjustable. I have used this harness on two ferrets, from about 3 months old, and only about a pound and a half. Now they are over a year old, fully grown, and they still fit well. Be aware, ferrets are incredibly flexible, and can back out of the harness if it's not super tight. I don't like to make them so tight, I just ensure that there is never tension on the leash to allow them to back out. Just keep slack in the leash, and they can't back out.

query: I know this might seem like a silly question, but is this a battery and does it replace the battery you have in the camera or does charge it?

pos: No, this is not a battery and you cannot charge the batteries in it. It uses the battery that you normally place in the battery grip. It holds 2 batteries and gives you twice the amount of oerting time. Also comes with a AA battery pack, so if you cant charge the Canon battery, then u can use AA batteries.

pos: Good question. The battery grip inserts into the spot where the battery goes into the camera. Also, the grip provides additional stability with weight, as well as, hold 2 batteries giving you more power for shooting. Also, it gives you access to your controls when shooting in portrait orientation in the same fashion as is landscape orientation.

pos: The grip is used to house up to two camera batteries. It does not charge it. It merely makes the camera easy to grip and doubles battery power.

pos: Well it's not technically a battery. It holds up to two batteries in it so your battery life is now doubled. It's well worth the purchase!

pos: This connects to the bottom of the camera. You insert 2 batteries that the camera uses into the grip. It does NOT come with the batteries. You must purchase them separately. You can also use "AA" size batteries. The battery grip makes the camera bigger and for me, easier to handle. Plus you get to shoot pictures twice as long because you have the 2 batteries. I have 2 Cannon cameras and each of them have the battery grip on both. Obviously, I like them.

pos: No. It is a grip and 2 places for batteries. You remove the battery door and attch the grip. Then you install either one or two batteries. It is an awesome addition. Hope that helps.

pos: The battery grip replaces the single battery in the camera with two batteries in the grip. It has no batteries with the item so at a minimum you will need one additional battery in addition to the one that came with the camera. It also comes with a AA battery holder and a storage bag. It does not charge the batteries, so you will still need the charger that came with the camera. You will have to remove the battery door from you camera when you install the grip. This is very easy and the grip has a storage location for the door built in.

pos: It's a grip that is also a battery expansion pack that let's you use two batteries at once with your DSLR.

pos: HiIts a grip for your camera, it has built in 2 battery slots making the camera a lot more practical

pos: is not a battery, you will have to buy 2 batteries and this grip. it's works very fine for big hands!


query: How many cameras comes with the $149.99 price, 0ne or four?

pos: 4cameras, 4 mounting brackets ( shown on cameras), power supply with a 4-plug pigtail to power all 4 cameras, and 4 50-ft lengths of cable.


query: Does the Apollo 11 Command Module include a "Certificate of Authenticity"?

pos: There should have been one. I bought mine from a seller who did not have the box, nor the CoA. He never replied to my request. Needless to say, I was very disappointed, and will avoid that seller. Yes, you should insist on one wherever you buy it, as it was included in the original packaging for this very nice Code3 replica.

pos: I believe mine did. I still have the box it came in. This is a really nice piece. I have the 2 smaller capsules also from the earlier missions


query: Hiya, If you have bought this product have you had issues with it draining the battery power ?

pos: I have used it only for a few hours and so far have had no battery issues. The LED bulbs draw very little current and the batteries should last for quite some time.

pos: As with anything that uses batteries, it won't last forever. I only used it for a couple hours one day and had no issue.

pos: No issues, its been more than a year I am using it and still have the same pair of battery running. LED bulbs consumes very little energy to run.

pos: I have not. But I don't use it very often. I'm actually very pleased. But again, I don't use it very often.

pos: I haven't had any issues with these lights draining he battery power. Please understand I have two of these "lites" pointing towards and illuminating a professional type dart board and it isn't used very much. I love the job they do and the portability and easy installation. Great little product.


query: Unit keeps turning on and off by itself till it runs out of battery: Has anyone encountered problems like this?

pos: Left mine playing its games until it was "Dead" flat. Rapid charged it via usb until it said it was full and then reset the time and date. Its behaved perfectly since!!! Odd but it seems to have worked! Good luck to all :0)


query: Is it possible to control fan without a remote or wall control? Does it come with pull cords?

pos: yes it comes with pull cords, you can slow the fan down, speed it up and turn on and off lights with pull cords.

pos: I have a wall control, so don't know about whether it would work without one. It does have pull cords, one with a picture of a light, and one with a picture of a fan. This is a really good fan.

pos: Don't know, yet, sorry. I have not installed this fan so far. The one I already own has pull cords so I've got my fingers crossed!

pos: It does come with pulls for light and fan - great fan so far - does not need a wall control and you can add a generic remote for about 20.00 US from home depot if you wish

pos: Yes; pull chains. The metal handle ends are also marked with a symbol of a light or a fan so you can always tell which is which.


query: Does it work on the head hair? Can I configure that I want my head hair to be 1-2-3 or so mm long after using it? Or the head is always bald after it?

pos: Yes it will cut hair to different lengths as ther are head attachments that set the cut!

pos: Yes, it works. I use it on my head every two weeks. It works great everytime.


query: What size is it? Dimensions?

pos: the pull tab is about 1" x 1/4". there is a loop portion that goes into the zipper slide which is another 1/4" or so.


query: what is diameter of pole?

pos: It is a 1 1/2" Side note: We purchased a base from Menards and it works well. However the pre-made hole in our pool deck did not work, even when I added PVC piping. So we went and got the weighted base which now sits on the pool deck hole.


query: what can I mix it with to taste best?

pos: Blend with water, ice, frozen fruit like a golden fruit blend (mango, pineapple, strawberry) or triple berry blend (raspberry, blackberry, blueberry), and almond milk.

pos: I mix it with coconut milk and berries. I think it tastes pretty good, but I haven't tried other combinations.

pos: I usually use a small banana, some berries, plain soy milk, and kale or spinach, along with crushed ice and water to make it as thick as you like.

pos: I use fresh or frozen berries and/or a banana. I also use vanilla almond milk sometimes. It comes in sweetened or unsweetened.


query: Help ! I `m old and don`t understand this new stuff.

pos: Please understand, that what you have can be used in two different ways. 1. it can be used wirelessly and 2. it can be used with a cable.If you read your owners manual it will show you how to use in both configurations. If you own anything that has Bluetooth capabilities then you can use this speaker using no wires at all.

pos: Barbara, I don't really know what your question is regarding. But from the previous answer, I am guessing that you want to know how to use these speakers. New electronic devices have what is called Bluetooth capability. In other words you can send the music signal without a wire connected to the speaker. If the device you want to use to play music does not have this capability you can use a wire to connect your device to the speaker the wire needs to have a plug that will fit in your music device and one that will fit into the speaker. The plug that goes into the speaker is a 3.5 mm cable. Good luck. The speaker deliver a great sound. Barbara, I don't really know what your question is regarding.

query: What size should I buy for an 11 year old boy?

pos: You can go to triple 8 website and they amok have sizing charts. They do have a sizing chart for the saver series.


query: Can I upload the unit with a apple computer with lion?

pos: Judy - David here. Interestingly, I got an e-mail from Amazon asking if I could answer your question. I bought my unit from Amazon about 3 months ago, so I guess I am now the "expert". The answer is I think so. I have an Apple computer, but I am away from home and can't check the operating system. I registered and uploaded everything on my Apple with no problem. I spent a lot of time looking into this purchase. I think I said on my review that the only downside is the battery life - it will last 4-5 full rounds. Otherwise, you will come to LOVE the hybrid feature. Most of the time, you just want the general distance. It is only occasionally that you want an exact distance. So, it is awfully convenient to simply look at it to get a front, middle, and back distance as opposed to having to pick it up and shoot the flag. Hope this helps. -DBC

pos: I do not know about apple, I used hp windows 7 with no problem. it is a great rangefinder


query: Does it charge as well?

pos: Maybe my wall chargers aren't very good, but our iPhones seem to charge much more quickly in the FiSDK500. It has become our go-to charger.

pos: Yes it does, I use it mostly with an iPod classic to play music but leave it docked most of the time.


query: Do you recommend sizing up or down when you are between sizes when measuring your calf?

pos: If you are used to wearing compression socks you could size down. If you are not you might want to size up until you get a feel for what level of compression works best for you. I wouldn't size down if you are planning on wearing them for extended periods of time.


query: Does it work with SlingCatcher

pos: The Slinglink simply helps you get a wired internet connection where it normally isn't - it's basically a bridge. For example, if you have your router or modem in one room of your house but you need to get internet in another room that does not have an Ethernet jack, you have to plug one of the Slinglink units in the electrial wall outlet in the room your router is and connect the two with an Ethernet cable. Then plug the second Slinglink unit the the other room's wall outlet and voila! You have internet available in that room. Now I do not have a SlingCatcher or know much about it, but if it needs an Ethernet cable to make it work, then the Slinglink will do the job. Hope this helps, good luck!


query: What kind of wood is it?

pos: I'm no expert on wood. It looks like oak. It holds me. I weigh 155 pounds. I seem to remember a weight limit somewhere in the description, if that's your concern.

pos: When I bought it a few months ago, it stated in the listing that it is made of bamboo. The one I have certainly looks and feels like bamboo. I notice that the listing does not say so specifically anymore, so maybe they have changed it? The only way to be sure would be to contact the manufacturer.


query: Do they all have same date on them?

pos: I would imagine - although, I only bought one. SO, not sure. BUT, I believe the date is the patent date, so it would be the same.


query: Is there a locking device for the umbrella to keep is from spinning?

pos: It locks in place very well. I've had mine up for about 6 months hasn't fallen yet

pos: I don't know yet. I haven't set it up. Once I do and if I remember I will post it.

pos: There are some tightening screws that reduce the amount of spinning but if it is windy the umbrella will still rotate a few degrees. Nothing excessive though. I would estimate that it can turn up to 45 degrees if the wind catches it but not enough to really alter the position of the shade it provides. Expect it to move some, as the umbrella itself is only connected to the support at one pivot point so even when not spinning the umbrella can blow in the wind. Could be a danger if you have it position low enough. Best bet is to reduce the mount of wind drag if its moderately windy, and fold it up completely if it is very windy.

query: Is it freestanding or does it have to be attached to something behind it?

pos: I would absolutely anchor it. If you don't you will most likely have a big mess on your hands as in gusts of wind, pets or kids knocking it over. I haven't planted the boxes yet but with it freestanding on my tile floor is it wobbly. That being said, I love this planter box.


query: Can you use these in a Keurig Brewer? With or without the separate brew basket?

pos: I would assume not, because the way a Keurig works, it might tear open the bag with the force of th water, etc., so I would not even try. Its just as easy to put the coffee bag in a mug full of water and heat in the microwave. I do believe that Folger's makes a line of coffees for Keurig brewers.

pos: I don't know but a friend of mine has a Keurig and she doesn't think so. The pod is designed for the brewer and there is a compartment for loose coffee. She said if the coffee bag is like a tea bag (which it is) she can't see where it could be placed.

pos: I don't know - I don't have a Keurig, I make single servings in the microwave!

pos: Michael,This coffee comes in what looks like a tea bag. I don't have a Keurig, but if you can put a tea bag in it then yes.


query: Can this saw cut at 45 degree angles?

pos: If you mean a beveled cut, the answer is no, unless you have a very narrow tile and then set that tile on base with a 45-degree slope, and that would take an uncommon expertise. But if you mean 45-degrees with respect to an edge of the tile, then the answer is yes, and for that matter any number of degrees. However, it would be best if you made a simple jig of plywood or some such to keep the tile from turning while scoring it. Lastly, you are limited (for 45-degree scoring) by the diagonal of the tile, which means a maximum of a 14-inch side (though longer if you are just cutting a small piece. Hence you could cut a diagonal from a 16 inch or an 18 inch tile if the length of the cut is less than the maximum diagonal of the tile. Mathematically, multiply the length of the intended cut by 1.4 If the product is less than 20, it's a go. Stoney

pos: First of all it is a tile cutter. You score it and then snap in two pieces. A metal angle comes with the tile cutter and you can brace your tile in any position to cut. I purchased this for a small project for my bathroom. It worked great and is a nice heavy duty item. I always like to buy quality tools. I looked at several others and this one was by far built better.

pos: Yes. But you won't cut 20in tiles. For 45 degree, maximum tile size is 14in.


query: Will this system work with any brand TV ?

pos: Yes, the review that said otherwise was wrong. The Sony Bravia TV option is just an easier setup. Works just fine on our Sanyo, Insignia, etc.


query: Can this be applied as a seasoning after popping?

pos: Not really, it takes only moments to follow the directions, and it truly is worth the effort.

pos: Certainly. Only be careful as a very little bit of this goes a long way. I would use a pinch at a time with a thorough tossing in between pinches. Good luck.


query: How is the warranty on the machine, is there a 1 year limited factory warranty or is it buy at your own risk? Please reply and thank you

pos: i have purchased two of these machines and both failed o foolishly didn't follow up on the warranty but did try to contact customer service didn't get a response.

pos: I had a sensor problem with mine at 3 months. They sent me a replacement board and was easy to install. Board was warranty and if I remember correctly they paid shipping both ways for new board and return of defective board. I was mad at first but think they handled it pretty well. No problems since at 8 months.


query: What are the ingredients?

pos: The package says: sorghum flour, tapioca flour, white rice flour, sweet rice flour, brown rice flour, natural evaporated cane sugar, inulin, millet flour, molasses and honey, rice bran, sea salt, xanthan gum. Certified gluten free but obviously not vegan. You add the yeast, eggs, oil, and water for the bread machine recipe that I use.

pos: Both of the previous responses would have been what I would have wrote. Enjoy!

pos: Don't know, I threw away the package after baking the cookies. It was Gluten free Oatmeal Cookies. I expected the mix to be good because the Bread Mix is the best gluten free bread flour.

pos: You can view the ingredients on Pamela's website: http://pamelasproducts.com/products/baking-mixes/pamelas-gluten-free-bread-mix/


query: Does anyone know about this bar fitting easily into a large bait tank like you use for shad, AKA shad barrel?

pos: It fits perfectly in a regular size cooler. It's probably 15 inches long. Works really well

pos: I'm not sure what a shad barrel is. I mounted mine in an old cooler by taking the suction cups off of the spray bar clips and using some small stainless steel screws and mounted the clips to the inner wall of the cooler up high. hope this helps.


query: What is the height when fully extended?

pos: Aloha Barbara,Each leg, end to end is about 11 and 3/4 of an inch long. Two legs fully extended measure about 22 inches long, end to end. I hope this helps. Take care, respectfully, Eric.

pos: ~22" from the desk top to the base of the panel (where the panel connects to the legs).


query: Is the Olympus FL-600R flash compatible with the E-620?

pos: The Olympus site shows the FL-50R Flash as the flash to use with the E-620.

pos: Yes, see my review titled "Works Great with E-620 (plus many things you want to know)" here on this page. I tested this flash with E-620 after having the same question myself. Hope you find it helpful.


query: Should I remove the battery from the unit if I am going to be using it again the next day? Will this cause the battery to drain faster? Thank you.

pos: I never remove the battery. Just turn it off and it will not discharge. If you are not going to use it for a month or two it is(as the others have also mentioned) good practice to remove the battery to guard against chemical leakage which can happen...........enjoy your Chrony and may the force be with you.

pos: I would say to leave the battery in the unit. If, on the other hand, you were putting the unit away for several months then it would make sense to remove the battery to both reduce drainage and to avoid possible leaks in battery fluid (not likely but it has happened to some of my flashlights and an electronic device when batteries were forgotten for more than a year).

pos: I left the battery installed for a few weeks without noticing any difference in performance. I think like any battery operated device, when its off its off and the battery is not in use. Right now I have it disconnected just because. Hope this helps.


query: are these pouches useable with the Spectra 2 system

pos: Yes, but if your pump came with the blue 2-part valves, you need to replace them with the duckbill valves.


query: Can I use this for iPod 5?

pos: No it is for the iphone 5s. They do have a case for the ipod 5 that is camo and black. Sold by Griffin Tech.


query: on the maxpedition falcon 2 to adjust the straps, can you pull straight down, or do you have to adjust the buckle, this may be my first backpack,

pos: To adjust the waist and chest buckles you have to pull sideways, for shoulder straps you just pull down. Very intuitive.


query: Does the hot water bottle smell like rubber?

pos: If you put your nose directly on it, you might, but I don't smell anything bad on my hands or skin after handling... It's surprisingly better than the typical opaque burnt red colored ones I've used in the past.


query: Hello, will it really fit a 2013 Dodge Durango?

pos: Hi well really I don't think so I have a Hyundai elantra and for the back seats it didn't fit the seatbels. It doesn't have an opening for the seatbelts to go through.


query: Is this artifically sweetened?Most flavors come with artificial sweetners, taste gross! I want to buy several boxes of these if not artificial.

pos: yes it does have some artificialsweetners but low amounts i feel the same but tried it any way & have drank it since for years now. if you go to their web site they will send you free samples to try before you buy. i have mine on automatic delievery w/ amazon which is wonderful.


query: Can this model 1 cubic handle a king size sheet set?

query: Does this have a CSR chipset (Cambridge Silicon Radio)? I'm trying to get my Wiimotes working again on KitKat 4.4 and a CSR chipset is a must.

pos: Even if they are, this bluetooth adapter is not reliable and failed on me within 2 months.

pos: I have no idea if it actually has the chipset you're referring to. Is there a way for me to tell via my printer, which is what I'm using it for?


query: What is the radius of detection?

pos: about 10 m at the out most distance from the sensor. however angle of the sensor and others can reduce the range


query: Am I able to stack the extender onto another 2x or 1.4? I read somewhere that you could

pos: You should be able to do this, but why would you want to? Focusing would be difficult and it will drastically reduce the amount of light getting through the lenses. Then there is the increased motion factor.


query: hey i don't know what battery to get and i have a samsung galaxy s2[sprint]

pos: Well... when you look at the different batteries...you need to make sure its for your phone and your phone carrier. If I remember correctly they had some for AT& T and sprint. Just make sure it same make model and carrier...hope that helps. Good luck.

pos: I have the same phone. Get the SAMSUNG battery as pictured. Look at the description on the battery. Look for 3.7 V, Li-Ion battery.

pos: To insure the battery on this listing is the correct battery for your phone. Turn off cell phone. Remove the battery door (Back Cover) on your cell phone. Remove battery. Read the Model number which will start as EB625152VA.

pos: This is the correct battery for the S2. I have a Galaxy S2 and this battery is identical to the OEM one. In fact, this is the OEM battery. And it costs a fraction of what Sprint sells it for.


query: What is depth of chair... from outside back to front of seat? Looking for between wall and desk clearance requirements.

pos: I don't know the exact dimensions. But I can tell you the chair is as big as the name implies. So much so that I returned it within a few days of getting it. I am a big guy, not huge, but big, at 6'2", ~195 pounds and it swallowed me. Everything about it is built for larger folks than me. It is very sturdy and, yes, space clearance should be considered. Sorry I couldn't help more.

pos: Since the chair curves back, I'm measuring from the approximate of the furthest back point of the back of the chair to the front. 28" from the furthest back to the front of the chair.

pos: I use chair at work which is a very small classroom--meaning I can only fit 5 desks in it. I don't have any problems moving around. I don't know exact measurements. I bought it because I am overweight and wanted a comfortable chair when I am sitting. If I had a complaint it would be that since I am only 5'8" I don't always slide to back of chair because it is big!


query: will it read mp3s from a flash drive?

pos: the device itself is a flash drive that plays mp3. You have to connect it through usb port to a pc and then you will be able to transfer songs.


query: Does this antenna need to be grounded when used with a trunk/hood lip mno mount?

pos: The MNO trunk mount has set screws that when they are screwed down on the truck of you car of hood of your truck they will contact the metal of the vehicle causing it to be grounded to that metal surface for your ground plane. If you want you can run a ground strap from the trunk lid or the hood to the ody of the vehicle for more metal to metal connection but it's not really necessary unless you are getting motor noise.

pos: using a lip mount grounds the ant. also when used wit a mag mount, the base of the mount will be the grpond


query: I was wondering on the size of the aux/usb in portion? I have a 2000 Lexus GS300 and I was wondering if it would fit in place of the cigarette heater?

pos: Unfortunately I have never measured the hole for the cigarette lighter. I am guessing that hole would be slightly less than the required hole.

pos: No it would have to mounted separately. It plugs into ports on your radio, usb etc.

pos: Generally used on boats. I had to drill an 1 1/2" hole to mount it. My guess would be ... no, it's too big for a direct replacement.

pos: It's pretty big, Mounting Hole: 1.5 inches Dimensions: 1.89 diameter x 1.18 depth. This definitely be bigger then 12v cigarette lighter.

pos: It would depend on the hole diameter once you removed the cigarette heater. It has a mounting hole diameter of 1.5"


query: Is this made in the USA?

pos: I actually thought it was, but have researched it. Apparently it's made in China.

pos: Yes, the lasagna pan (12" x 14 1/2" x 2 1/2") is made in China. This information is listed on the box. It's still a great value at $65.44 and with free shipping.

pos: I copied this from a blog and it answers my questions, too!The firm purchases its metals only from United States-based suppliers, including Pennsylvania steel.[1] In recent years, All-Clad has begun outsourcing some of its manufacturing to factories in China; these include products where the bonding of metals is not required (for example kitchen tools and accessories), and regular non-bonded components, or those for which manufacturing constraints exist at the Canonsburg plant (for example, electrical appliances).


query: Can I paint this directly or do I have to strip it first?

pos: You should be able to paint directly onto the bench without doing any stripping. You should however think about applying a teak oil to this bench instead of painting. The teak oil will help weather proof the bench, without covering up the beauty of the natural wood.

pos: Make sure you hit it with a stain blocking oil-based primer before painting it otherwise the stain will bleed through the paint.


query: Do these replace the hydro sticks

pos: Yes they do, just lay them in the bottom of the tank. The older model is no longer available and they told me this is the replacement.


query: best way to wear this

pos: The brace has a doughnut on the front that encircles the kneecap. You can only wear it one way. When you get it in your hand it will be obvious.

pos: I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, as the picture of the knee brace readily shows how to wear this (wider part above the knee, lower part below). My best guess at this is that you're asking about the gel portion of the brace? If so, that should encircle the knee cap (so that the top/center of the knee cap is NOT covered)

pos: This is a good support for extra knee support. I use this brace when I plan to do a lot of walking, and I always put cornstarch inside the support.


query: Does it provide shade well?

pos: Yes - this purchase is amazing. We did position it based on the suns direction - but the ease of use, the ability to get a lot under it - all of it was amazing. We constantly have people asking us about it when we go to the Cape. Have used it for 2 seasons now with great results.

pos: It's a great shelter, depending on your location, your needs, and the weather. I'm in the northwest. In the evenings the shelter isn't great at the beach because you want to be able to look out to the water, but you are facing the sun. But it's great during the day, before the sun gets to far west. There is a cloth base on this shelter. So it's great for picnics when trying to keep out the sand or grass, but doesn't work for shading little ones while they dig in the sand. And when the wind really picks up the shelter isn't great. (Think Oregon on a windy day) It's perfect 85% of the time for our use at the beach and park. It's usually set up well above the tide line, and we also got a Wondershade Beach Umbrella so that all our shade needs are covered. And a Wonder wheeler to lug it all around... When we go to the beach we set up for hours and all our friends can join us in comfort!

pos: Yes! This tent is large enough for 5 people to sit in in (without chairs). Depends on the direction of the sun, but there is always significant amounts of shade. This tent is a must for all day at the beach. I get lots of stares of envy from people, especially those with kids...

pos: yes! it is one of my best investment. very easy to set up and very durable.


query: There is no info on the graphics card. what type of graphics card does this laptop have??

pos: NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M graphics card - I have played many games and had no problems with performance. There have been two upgrades from GeForce since I purchased this laptop.

pos: It has 2 graphics processors; an on the motherboard Intel chip for standard videos and browsing as well as a Nvidia M series card for gaming. The Nvidia card handles most games well but you have to sacrifice eye candy for performance. Specifically, as stated in the information its the 630M from nVidia.

pos: I imagine there are several different cards that could go in this model, so I cannot tell you which one was installed in one in which you have an interest. What mine has might not be what others of this same model have. Therefore, I would suggest you contact Samsung.


query: Will it need to be sanded before staining?

pos: It will not need sanding before staining. It comes pre-sanded and very smooth.

pos: Mine arrived with a very smooth finish. I sprayed painted it black without sanding and it looks great - very smooth and even finish. I can't speak to how evenly it would take a stain but the piece definitely arrived already sanded.


query: also, does it have CE certification for Europe? Thank you.

pos: On the box it says dual voltage of worldwide use. I hope that answers your question.


query: How do you recharge the batteries?

pos: They should recharge in the sunlight. I had about 4 arrive not working tho and they never have.

pos: Am having the same problem I brought 18 light only 8 working I can't get d rest to work

pos: These are solar-rechargeable. As you place them in the ground, pull the top off (the cylindrical top from the clear plastic portion underneath), then pull out the plastic tab. That tab prevents the electrical charge from the solar cell on top from reaching the storage cells inside the top cylindrical unit. It's the storage cells inside that light the LED.


query: What are the correct measurements for the king oversized comforter? Description says 106 x96 but reviews say 110x96...

query: Can this be used with the indoor gorilla gym bar?

pos: I would say yes. We use ours out doors. There is a opened type of S hook. It should loop through any chain link or even tied with a rope not. So i would say yes.


query: Most point and shoot cameras lens will extend out when focusing, zooming, or powered up. Does the lens on this extend?

pos: No, it does not. However, the zoom works well taking photos. Hope that helps.

pos: No. The lens does not extend out as others do. Previous point and shoot cameras I have had extended or were telescoping and were highly prone to dirt, sand, etc... getting in the moving parts and cutting the life of the camera. Love my Fujifilm FinePix XP60. Works well in harsh environments.


query: In following some chinese recipes it says to find a good instant read oil/candy thermometer . Is this one that would work?

pos: The package indicates that the thermometer is good for meats and fish. I have not used it for other candy making or oil. There is no indication on the wrapper that this would be one of the uses.

pos: The specifications indicate a maximum temperature of 450° ....so it would depend upon how got your oil/candy needs to be. Temps above 450 might damage the thermometer. This is an excellent instant thermometer for everyday use ...meat, fish, casseroles and reheating. I love it.

pos: Howdy K.O., I have only used this thermometer for meats. It is accurate, and fast. I also bought my nephew one since he liked mine so much. Hope this helps your decision making. C

pos: this is the fastest thermometer i've ever used...only 1 month old, but works very very well. bargain. of note, is saw the QVC is selling an updated version of this thermometer for about 15.00 plus shipping

pos: The specifications indicate a maximum temperature of 450 ....so it would depend upon how got your oil/candy needs to be. Temps above 450 might damage the thermometer. This is an excellent instant thermometer for everyday use ...meat, fish, casseroles and reheating. I love it.

pos: I am not sure if this thermometer will work in that temperture range. oil and candy thermometer I believe work above 450 degrees.


query: are they gluten free?

pos: I do not know if it is gluten free. It does not show on the box that there is any gluten in it, unless "Glusosamine Sulfate is 1500 mg. I ordered this for my son and he says it helps his joints.joints.

pos: All I know is it is all natural ingredients, I'm sure you could get a list from the website.


query: Approximately how often does it cycle on and off on energy saver mode?

pos: Really good question. I'm not sure, because it depends on how hot it is and how low you have set the temp. I can say this: We have three and love them! They are small and do a great job of cooling a room off fast, plus the remote control comes in handy. Also, easy to clean the filter.


query: does this scanner scan 11x17 documents?

pos: No. It only scans documents, photos, etc, that are 8 1/2 inches X 11 inches or smaller.

query: Does this fixture have a cord and plug to plug into a nearby outlet, or is it only possible to use it hard-wired?

pos: No, you have a 8-10 ft cord but no plug, you hook up this fixture just like ceiling fan, unless your near by outlet also have a switch control, otherwise plug in the light everyday on/off will be big problem because you will hook up this fixture 10 ft in the ceiling so it is almost hard to reach unless you use a 8 ft leader everyday.

pos: some one mentioned that the memory card used with the canon 1000is cannot be erased with the canon software. can anyone verify this?

pos: I too am weighing the pros and cons of these two and appreciate you starting this trend. My concern is primarily regarding pictures taken at night. Looking forward to reading more replies.

pos: I've been comparing them for 2 months and finally bought the 1000IS because:1. It has a rotating wheel on top to change from auto to programmable to movie and all other modes. The review button is on the back.With the 1200 it is a rubber slider and movie mode is in between shoot and review. With my old Canon, I was always getting back to the hotel room out of battery life and discovering it was because in going back and forth between review and shoot mode I had slipped into movie mode and had lots of footage of my feet walking around while sight seeing. Hopefully this can't happen now. I've been comparing them for 2 months and finally bought the 1000IS because:1.

pos: beware of the 1200 IS. Google: "Lens error. Restart camera+1200" and find out how many people are having trouble wih this camera. There is an entire net community of us.

query: I have a scope with a 30 mm tube. I want to mount it to a ruger 10/22. Will theses rings work with a 30mm tube?

pos: The rings will specify what size they are. They come in 1" so this would not work on a 30mm scope tube. Now, if they make rings that are for 30mm then yes that would be the rings to buy. You should call Warne Scope Mounts and ask for Tech. support and they are great in helping out. Warne is very good mounts and rings but if you have no luck finding the 30mm rings w/ Warne the Leupold should have them and they are just as good, possibly cheaper too. I hope this helps.

pos: Just make sure that you buy rings specified as the proper fit for a 30mm scope.


query: What is the difference between the standard and traditional one? I am looking for quality laminated map with good road routs.

pos: This one is great for major interstate and state routes. For example, you can clearly see that you take Interstate 40 from Memphis to Nashville to Knoxville, TN or State Route 27 from Dayton, TN to Chattanooga, TN. However you don't see any roads going to a place like Carthage, TN. I don't know anything about Carthage, but I don't think it's a very big place. So...I suppose the level of detail you want would dictate whether or not you wanted this map.


query: Will this scale for weigh puppies down to 1 oz or 2 oz accurately. The platform is large enough, but how well are "light" item weighed ?

pos: The scale is very accurate to even less than an ounce. The weight is displayed in decimals of an ounce. For example, for lighter items the display will show 0 lbs. 0.8 oz. It operates on batteries that make it very convenient to move.I had it for several months and it's a great and accurate scale. I'm very pleased with it. Rich G. Palm Harbor, FL

pos: Items can be weighed to ounces and tenths of ounces...just set on firm table and good to go! You'll love this scale, it automatically turns off...so weigh a puppy, and continue with puppy care, do not have to be bothered with turning unit off, and it just is a press of a button to turn on.

pos: Yes I believe it would: I find it accurate to fractions of an oz (but I wouldn't use it for anything less than 1 oz, like small piece of jewelry).


query: Does this set come with racks? If so, how many?

pos: No it does not. It is just the tile (which we used for a craft project) they are the newer version of tiles (bold, block letters) not the "vintage" tiles like the Scrabble game we've had for years

query: Does it come with instructions?

pos: No instructions were included but there are some very detailed videos on youtube. It was easier than I thought it would be.

pos: No it does not. Search youtube, there are many insturction videos to guid you. Good Luck!

pos: Nope. It comes with exactly what is pictured and not a thing more. Videos on Youtube are the instructions I used.

pos: Yes. It comes with detailed instructions. They are very informative and fun to read. I love them. Also, I just went fart.

pos: No and my screen came broke they said it would b replaced I never received it.


query: Does this doll comes with any fragrance? Are her vinyl soft?

pos: The vinyl was stiff w/ a smooth matte finish.It is absolutely the sweetest face I have ever seen in a baby doll.It is such a shame that the doll has a STRONG chemical odor....reminescent....in my opinion, to bug repellent. Without unwrapping, I took it out of the box to try to air out and see if that helped, but I started having a coughing reaction to it. NO WAY would I give this to a child or anyone for that matter. My grown up daughter did not have this problem when I showed her, altho, she could smell the chemical. Altho you did not ask, the legs contained those small beebee size balls, as in a beanbag chair, and I thought those were outlawed in "stuff" for small children and pets. I informed the company we bought it from thru Amazon. I had to pay return shipping, about $12 even tho it was purchased w/ prime A. And the problem was not our fault. Hope this helps your decision.

pos: No she doesn't have a smell like some dolls do of baby powder...although that is easy enough to add to her diaper if you wanted a baby powder scent! She is def softer then some of the other dolls out there as well! I have bought my girls dolls from MANY different makers and she is my favorite! She still looks as good as she did the day we opened the box over a year ago...which is more then I can say for some of the I others that I paid a lot more for!! Hope this helps!!


query: Will it allow rear brake replacement on a 2013 Q5 with the electronic parking brake?

query: Can I order these with the bungs for 02 sensors

pos: Rob, if you're asking if that have O2 sensor bungs, they are already welded on. They have plugs for 2006 - earlier that don't use O2 sensors. Also, this is from the product description directly from the item Adds 8 horsepower over stock header pipes Independent dual look with hidden crossover Moves the rear cylinder header under the bike to reduce radiated heat to the passenger Full chrome heat shielding with 220 degree coverage Updated styling to give the bike a modern look Oxygen sensor bungs Durable 16-gauge construction Spherical inlet design for improved sealing and exhaust gasket durability Hardware included to mount crossover pipe Compatible with all slip-on mufflers Made in USA


query: I know this says for canon. However, by any chance will this work for my Nikon D5100?

pos: I believe they make a Nikon version as well. The Canon version probably wouldn't work with Nikon because the contacts are different.

pos: I do believe that you have to get the one for Nikon because the connections/cables are designed specifically for each camera.

pos: It may! I bought two sets if these and two of the four are canon and two are nikon. I have a canon and they work great!

pos: I believe they will work for Nikon also, they are basic triggers (no TTL) and the hot shoe for the basic flash is the same for both Canon and Nikon.

pos: No they are for canon only. They do have a version for Nikon available through amazon as well.

pos: Yes it should. I shoot Canon and I have one that says for Nikon, and it works just fine.


query: Does it have a bluetooth??

pos: Yes it does, but I have had a problem with the wifi. All my other devices receive my wifi just fine, but this wont receive it if its 15 feet away from the modem.

pos: Mine does not. If it does then its not made clear to me as to where it is. Hope this helps.


query: Question: Just the handle? ...Or do these come with the matching bell shape that goes between the wall and the handle itself?

pos: got these today - handles only. These are a little smaller than the ones i am replacing, but otherwise identical. Couldn't actually find a size indicator.


query: what size bladder is this compatible with?

pos: I have put 2 80oz bladders in side by side and a 100oz by itself with no issues. Not sure if anything larger will fit, or the official capacity.

pos: A 2.5L bladder fits. But I'd suggest not putting one in. I tried & it creates a hump dead center of the pack. Makes it kind of uncomfortable. Plus, you'll be adjusting your straps through the day as you empty the bladder.


query: Can these be used for an epson xp300 small in one printer?

pos: Does your printer use the Epson T200 series cartridges? If so, these will fit. The size is the same; the XL just holds more ink.

pos: I am not sure, but on the box it will tell you what printers they can be used in.


query: Can it be unlocked via an NFC tag?

query: Mac Friendly? The Garmin Forerunner 305 software was not Mac friendly, so I only used it a few times before dumping it into my box of junks.

pos: That is the mistake I made.... older model 205/305 will work on Garminconnect in May. The 405 is not slated for support until Q3 of 2008. You only find this out after purchasing and downloading the software. For now I am using Fusion (same as Parallels). Also, keep an eye on runnerplus. They are very close to supporting Garmin and have a very robust site.

pos: It is only the software that neds updating. I know the software for macs are supposed to come out in the fall, but the 405 has been beset by delays. So you can buy one and EVENTUALLY it will be supported by Mac, I just can't tell when by anything I have seen Garmin put out.

pos: The Garmin 305 already works with Macs. I've had mine for about 6 months and have been using it exclusively with OS X. I use Garmin Training Center. The 305 will not be compatible with Garmin Connect until 5/21 but that's the device not the OS.

pos: You might want to check out Ascent from Montbello Software. Mac native and runs circles around Garmin Training Center for the 205/305. I'm using it for my 405, but only after exporting a file in windows from GTC and importing it into Ascent.

pos: My only input is that the ANT wireless stick works fine in parallels, if you dont mind doing that for the time being.

pos: Another alternative to display your ForeRunner workouts data and to have a journal is TrailRunner. http://www.trailrunnerx.com

pos: It appears as though they may have pushed out this date. The download website currently reads "Fall, 2008" for a Mac Friendly version... Anyone have any input?

pos: check here about mac. Looks like after may 21st it will be mac friendly.http://blog.motionbased.com/2008/03/garmin-connect.html

query: Are you able to fold cover so that the phone can stand on flat surface?

query: Gilpininc.com shows the floor flange model 518 for 1" square post. Do you sell them or can youborder them?

query: Does anyone know where I can find installation instructions for these?

pos: There was no need for instructions as it is obvious when you examine them, don't worry.

pos: http://www.woodstockint.com/16-Full-Ext-Drawer-Slide-100-lb-Cap-Side-Mount-pair-/D3030Link to manufacturer that has manuals, good luck. I did a replacement job so it was matter of redoing what I had undone.

pos: I'm sure you can find a "U-tube" on how to install a drawer slide if you have never done one before.


query: Is it suitable for a large dog - Husky?

pos: should be - we have Golden Retrievers. we use it when we go to agility trials - there are others who have large dogs in these, as well - and those who want more space tend to use traditional crates, but those are much heavier than this tent. how tall is your dog or how much does he/she weigh - that would be a better guide. feel free to email me at profjbg@mac.com

pos: Not the size I got. Unless it is a VERY quiet kid. My 60 dog fits fine, it is perfect for Keeshound size, light weight and not for dogs who will push or paw.

query: I have snow white hair. What color is the shampoo? (I've tried some that deposited color.)

pos: black and clear if that makes scene. It really did not help me like the reviews said it would. But don't think it will hurt your hair color.

pos: It's a dark green color, I don't know how it would react to snow white hair.


query: How do you know when Bluetooth headset is paired?

pos: when it is connected it just start to flash green instead of red and green. once it is paired then you don't have to repeat it again.

pos: The transmitter flashes blue less frequently than when it's looking for a device with which to pair. Headsets themselves are different, but I experience the same thing with my headset.Try looking for the instruction manual for the headset. Enter the model number and "instruction manual" (with quotes) into your favorite search engine. Be sure to save it to your hard drive for future use.

pos: Good idea checking it locally. Looks like the smaller drives get the added perks (larger selection of colors and, now, cooler pattern of lights). I liked the price too (and the free docking station) so I guess I will keep mine. Thanks all.

pos: I have the same problem. I bought the silver 500G (2/13/10) whose LED lights were totally different from the picture of product! then I googled this "new" one. nothing showed up excepted this discussion. Furthermore the official site has never showed this kinda model. What happened?! I got a fake one?

pos: I went to Staples to find out. All their 500GB have the same new light pattern, so it's definitely not fake (why would Amazon sell fake stuff?). At Staples, the smaller drives have the older light pattern. I like the old one better, but this new one is not that bad so I decided to keep it, since I got it at a really good price.

pos: I don't know if you guys realize the package of which the new one's light pattern is covered by a piece of paper compared to the old one's light pattern showing clearly. Do you guys think it means something? although it is absolutely genuine and it is not that bad, I feel not so good for this unannounced change.

pos: By the way, I also checked Seagate's website and they have no pictures of their 500gb with the new light pattern, which I find odd because if anyone's going to have the most up-to-date pictures of their products, it should be them.

pos: I got 500mb today and it's one with less dots. In the case it says 'Ultra-Portable Drive' instead of just 'Portable Drive'.

pos: Measure and weigh your drive. The one I received is smaller on all three measurements and weighs 5.35oz, so it is also lighter. I emailed AMZN and asked about the differences between what I received and what is pictured. For some reason they sent me another drive and never answered my question. Received it today and it is exactly like the first one that I received. I will email AMZN again.


query: can i use my existing MS-Office 2010 licence to install in surface 3

pos: yes and no. Yes you can install it, but depending what kind of license you bought with MS Office 2010, it might now allow you to activate it because you have used up the cd-key (license) on previous PCs you have installed it on. Most standard licenses allows you to install it on 2 PCs. If you ever do run into the issue, just call Microsoft activation team and they usually activate (but deactivates other PCs that has it installed)

pos: I've run into this issue when switching to another computer and trying to transfer my MS-Office License over. The key that you have will say that it has already been activated, but all you need to do is call the phone number that is provided, and an automated voice will ask you a few questions like "Is this the only PC that you are installing MS-Office on?" and then it will give you a code to enter (along with your key) which will then allow you to install it. Hope it's not to late for this answer.


query: I read through a lot of the reviews but never really saw if these work in a vehicle? Making a band bus. Do they dim and/or go to all white? Thanks!

query: Does this work with C63 year 2009 - 2010?

pos: I know this works w SLK 09...Try to check n see your connection this cable has multy pins. The connection is a small rectangle w many pins.

pos: Unfortunately, these are extremely fickle cables - the safest (albeit most expensive) route is to go to dealer and let them try several different ones until they are sure it works -- two ways! It must both play content AND charge the unit -- I have had cables that do one but not both (one charged and another played, go figure!) On the other hand, you can order this one and if it doesn't work send it back.


query: is the detachable day bag carry-on friendly?

pos: Absolutely. In fact, I've carried both bags on numerous times...the large one fits nicely in the overhead, and the smaller one is my personal item. Officially, the larger bag is too big to carry on, but there is no problem closing the overhead bin. I've only been asked to gate check it once (which still let me skip out on the fees).

pos: Yes. It is small enough to shove under an airplane seat or stow above. It's like a gender-friendly purse with shoulder straps.

pos: Yes, I have used it as a carryon with my electronics with no problem on domestic and international flights. The small farpoint 40 can be used as a carryon and I find myself being more efficient at packing and use this bag more.


query: CanI use this RA 1165 Base with my Porter Cable 690 motor?

pos: No, I don't believe you can. Porter Cable uses a different locking configuration to hold their router assemblies than what Bosch uses. For your purpose, I would recommend searching Amazon for 'Universal' router table mounts. There are several companies that sell bases that fit a wide variety of routers (Rockler, MCLS, Peachtree) that use Amazon marketplace.

pos: Since condensation is generally a matter of air temperature and humidity it will probably depend on your climate. I use these in a moderately dry climate and haven't had a problem.


query: Does this work on the curves between the sidewalls and the bottom of a tub?

pos: Yes, it works on the whole shower inclosure and the tub, the long handle has the reach that I need these days to do a good job.

pos: It curves and bends but it does take quite a bit of pressure to get it to bend when it is new. Once you break it in it will be much more flexable.

pos: I used it on our shower & didn't try it yet on the tub. It worked great in cleaning the shower especially around the lower half.
