query: Archos 7 as an eBook Reader ??? With a 7 inch screen this is somewhat bigger than the typical ebook reader out there (Sony, Kindle and Bookeen all have the standard 6" epaper screen.) but can anyone comment on the potential readability of the screen? too glossy perhaps? too reflective? grainy? I would love to buy this gadget not only as a video and MP3 player but to display documents, read books, blogs, and internet articles as well. Thoughts? (ps i looked at the fifth gen Archos 5" player while at Circuit city and was not impressed. definitely would want a 6 inch display or preferably a 7 inch display minimum for reading or watching video.

pos: I've been using a Zaurus C3200 and a Zaurus C1000 for years as an ebook reader. It's way better than a Kindle because it is backlit so you can read in the dark in bed. I keep it on my nightstand plugged into its adapter so that way there are no battery issues. Buy it from Conics.net or any store that sells Japanese merchandise. It's awesome; there are THOUSANDS of little handy apps written for it (http://www.killefiz.de/zaurus/) and with a wifi cf adapter you can carry this thing in your pocket and check your email or surf the web with Opera anywhere.

pos: Well I hate to burst everyone's bubble but the Archos 7 is a wonderful piece of tech and has the potential to be used as an excellent E-Book reader. However, currently ebooks are unreadable for the most part on them due to the various digital rights management (DRM) crap that publisher's keep forcing down on consumers via their ebooks. The archos 7 can read a pdf but not a DRM based pdf. If you find away to make it a regular pdf I would imagine it would work fine. I work with alot of pdf documents and I can read all of them just fine on the archos 7 but none of those documents have DRM in the way.

pos: Thanks. So, you're saying that one cannot download the Barnes&Noble; ap onto the Archos 7 or 70, or the Kindle ap or the Kobo ap (if there is one)?

pos: I have the Archos 7.It's fantastic!It reads Epub, PDF, Kindle etc..... and page changes are FAST.Best of all, it's colour, so it's a fantastic comic reader too.As well as a video player (excellent quality) it goes on the web effortlessly.Kindle? - Sony book reader? - eat your heart out!

pos: i would like to add a question:could it be possible to install an ebook reader application on the archos 7 to reader ebooks. a program like Microsoft reader of its equivalent?

pos: I am with you. I have been looking for something smaller than a notebook to travel with that can email, keep track of daily activities, convert currency, show pictures and view ebooks. I don't want a phone because the monthly costs are outrages for the amount I use a cell and most places don't cover europe. If anyone hears of a good all round device I would love to hear about it.

pos: PDFs suck on the Archos 5. I looked at the PDF Manual that came preloaded on it and it loads for like 30 seconds just to scroll down a page.

pos: You may want to look at a Kohjinsha SX3. It is a fully functional ultra portable laptop with a 9 inch screen & it converts into a tablet. I bought one a couple of months ago & I am very happy with it. It works great for surfing the net, works well with Skype (has 2 built in webcams), and when you convert it into a tablet it makes a great ebook reader. Total weight is around 1.2kg. I purchased mine from Conics.net. They shipped it from Japan to the U.S. & I had it within 5 days. Their website is http:/conics.net. Hope this helps.

pos: Yes you can download and install Kindle, Nook, Aldiko, Moon+ Reader and many more. I have Archos 7 Internet Tablet running Android V 2.04. You can install Android Market Application and download hundreds of Applications and E book readers and Games. Since it has a nice screen you can also watch movies and you can hook it up to your TV to watch movies, files photos and videos. It is nice for the price.


query: Is this guaranteed before Christmas? If ordered 12/4 or 12/5 to Georgia?

pos: If you order it from us in next 24 hours yes it will be guaranteed to be there before Christmas. Thanks


query: If you only want to use a small amount of the block how do you get it off?

pos: You can either use a sharp knife to cut it or use a cheese grater (which neither should be used for food prep again) to get a smaller amount for a lighter shade.


query: Will this work with Craftsman brand? And how do you program it?

pos: I paired one of the buttons to a genie, not able to pair to a craftsman at a friend's.

pos: I bought this for a Genie so I had no problems. I believe the Craftsman brand uses switch programming. If you have a Craftsman remote, check to see how to program. Genie uses an electronic beam to program.

pos: Yes , it's universal. To program it you need open up the over head garage door opener. There is a button you push but you need to have all the remote openers present so they will all work, then follow the instructions.

pos: Will only work with Genie Intellicode garage dooor openers. Craftsman uses a different technology with a 9 pin code in their remotes.


query: how much sodium per serving

pos: All miso products are very high in sodium. Salt is the traditional preservative. However, white misos have less sodium than other miso products. As a flavoring for soup bases, a serving of miso will be distributed throughout a pot of soup or stew. However, there is no authentic miso that is made for salt restricted diets. I am looking at a similar product, the Eden organic Genmai miso, and there is 780 mg of sodium per serving.


query: Will this sweeper work on linoleum too?

pos: It does not work on bare floors as well as on rugs - but I use it anyway in my kitchen- just have to run it back and forth a bit more on bare floors.


query: I am assuming being that it said that it fits tables of all sizes, but just to be sure, does this fit a standard 5 foot table?

pos: It's the thickness of the table that matters not the length ... My table was too thick so I had to return it..


query: Are both fronts drive/geared wheels? on TB210 & TB270 ES? Or even generally?

pos: Yes both wheels are drive. So replace both wheels. These wheels are excellent.

pos: I have a MTD Mower, Mine is front drive and has a shaft running across the front and both drive with gears. I bought 4 of these wheels and rotate them every season (fronts to back etc). On my original set the fronts wore out and the backs were good but no drive gear on the backs..Hope this helps


query: What is the scale of this truck?

pos: It is not a standard scale. Shows 1/27 scale on the bottom. Close to a normal 1/24 scale though.


query: If I cut off the front portion of the center divider, would I be able to fit my 40"L Soundbar inside?

pos: The inside cavity of the stand is 40 3/16" wide and 4 5/8" high. I would worry about the stability of my TV sitting directly in the center of a modified base.

pos: Hmm, not sure about that. It's pretty solid but I wouldn't go messing with the structural integrity. Because of the space where I am using mine, I actually had to put the sound bar in front of my stand. This blocked the two openings of course, but I purchased a couple pieces of wood, painted them black and put them under my TV's base which raised it up enough to put my cable box and bl-ray on top of the stand, on either side of my TV. Not sure if this would work in your situation.


query: How long do the mushrooms last before they all die?

pos: I couldn't tell you took mine a couple months to grow I have only had the mushrooms for a couple weeks


query: does battery fit the dell1520

pos: I have a Dell Inspiron 1720- where is the battery situated and how do I replace it?

pos: I don't know. Mine is a 1721, but it could. Its a great battery at a great price

pos: Yes, the battery does extend an inch or so beyond back of the case, but the electrical connections are perfect as is the width.


query: Does this allow the drive to be mounted in a desktop? Are there the standard 2.5" screw holes and everything to simply mount this?

pos: Does not include 2.5" screw holes. This adapter is used to convert a mSATA drive to a 1.8" SATA drive form factor, which is found in some laptops/notebooks. Thanks, Mike

pos: This requires an MSATA connection, this is not the same as a SATA connection that you see in most desktops. The entire Aleratec drive is smaller than 2.5 inches so there is no way to mount it that way without some sort of modification or cradle. MSATA drives are usually used in small, lightweight laptops where little to no power consumption by hard drives are ideal.

pos: The SATA connector for 1.8" drive is non-standard. One will need to get an adapter to convert to standard 2.5". The best-cost effective method would be using a mSATA to SATA adapter with a standard 2.5" housing.

pos: No, this takes mSATA and converts it to the 1.8" format used by certain laptops. I needed it for a lenovo T410s which wouldn't take standard 2.5" or mSATA drives.


query: How many grams does this weigh?

pos: Very light. Not sure about how many grams but you won't notice it in your pocket.

pos: Without the cap, on my kitchen scale it measures 7 or 8 grams, so I'd guess right about 8 grams or just under for minimum pack weight.


query: Can anyone tell me if I need an adapter to mount it on my T4i DSLR? Thanks.

pos: Nope, It slips onto your hot shoe with a pretty nifty fit that is built into the microphone.

pos: It fits the T4i 650D. There is a video of it on youtube. If you have a 3.5mm headphone jack on the camera, the Rode Videomic will fit to the best of my knowledge.

pos: If your T4i DSLR have a cold/hot shoe you should be fine. It has the same mount as a regular Flash for your camera.


query: What size battery does it take I see both 12 volt & 9 volt mentioned.Jim H.

pos: I have several of these single units and they all use 9 volt batteries, however I do have one duel unit, that is a transmitter with two buttons on it that controls two remote units and that one takes a 12 volt battery.


query: Can I plug in 220V? I'm gonna take it to Europe.

pos: The keyboard uses a "wall wart" power supply that provides 12 volts dc output with 1.5 amps. If you can find a proper power source for 220 volts input that outputs 12 volts compatible with the output pin, it should work. But the risk is probably to the user if it fails.

pos: i uses a generic 9V keyboard adapter. so if you can get a 9v generic adapter that plug into a 220v outlet, it should work.

pos: it works on a 9v adapter. so if you can get a generic 9V keyboard adapter that plug into a 220V outlet, it should work.


query: how to connect streamer to tv to use Netflix?

pos: You need to go to settings to connect to internet via cable or wireless, and go to applications to get access to Netflix.

pos: if you already have an netflex account just use your user name and password if not go online to netflix.com and create an account ok

pos: Better yet, don't get a Roku if you utilise profiles. RCA streamer MAY be worth looking at. But there's a Sony one too. NeoTV is great for the service, but I don't use without connecting directly.


query: Does the Europort EPA900 come with two stands for the speakers.

pos: Yes it does , however if you are serious about buying this piece of &%?/$% you had better buy 2 or3.cause your gonna need them for spare parts .honestly this unit is junk , I wouldn't take another one even if its.free . Buy the Yamaha or fender they are much better


query: If I have a normal stabilizer lens, on a Canon EOS Rebel T3, do I just attatch to my standand lens or do I have to buy an actual macro lens?

pos: If you have the standard 18-55mm lens that comes with the T3 then this screws on to the 18-55mm without an adapter.


query: Hi, If i purchase this HID Kit, Do i need a relay or canceller capacitor, For my 2006 Nissan Murano?

pos: hi oscar. yes you need a relay capacitor, this kit comes with the relay. i installed this kit to my 2005 nissan frontier and works great, i also installed with this kit a canceller capacitor. i just hook it up with this kit bacause i have them before buying this hid kit,, but all you need is the relay and is included with this kit. hope this help.


query: Is this cord stretchy at all?

pos: Depends on your overal length being used. Under weight, 550 paracord can stretch 1" per foot...slightly more if wet.

pos: Yes, it does stretch, but not like a bungee cord. If you need low/no stretch try Amsteel.


query: What's the coverage area per trap? How many would cover half an acre ?

pos: I used two for half acre, one on each side of my house. Not sure how much area one trap can cover.

pos: I would suggest 4 traps for half an acre. The most important put them as far as possible from what you want to protect.


query: is it any better than nature's miracle advanced for getting rid of cat pee?

pos: I have found this product to be vastly better than odor removing products sold in pet stores such as Nature's Miracle. I will not ever go back to using those other very weak and largely ineffective products in pet stores as I have never found them to work sufficiently to actually remove pet odor.


query: Does it work with the iPhone 5?

pos: The interface to the phone is different. The iPhone 5 has the smaller plug-in while this has the larger one found on older iPods and iPhones. It would not work without an adapter.

pos: Not directly. You would have to purchase an iPhone 30 pin to Lightning connector for it to work. It would then allow you to connect and play music, pod casts, Pandora, etc. But it won't let you charge.

pos: To go from the Infiniti stock cable to an iPhone 5 you need a 12v to 5v adapter like the Scoshe, then the 30 pin to lighting connector (the one without the cable pre-attached) then, a lightning extension cable if you have case issues or want more length

pos: No because this is the wide type connector that is only used for iPhone 4 or earlier. IPhone 5 uses the lightning 30 pin smaller connector.


query: Will these spacer work the Amazon basics rechargeable AA batteries?

pos: No. These did not work with my Amazon Basic Rechargeable AA batteries. The + side didn't reach out far enough.


query: The picture shows on the top right corner -- 30 pack. 30 packs? What does that mean?

pos: I think it may be a mistake. It only shows up in one of the pictures. What I received when I ordered this was 8 ounces of raw cocoa butter chunks in one package for around $7.99. It was a nice quality product and smells very nice.


query: What are the dimensions when it is folded up? Id like to bring this to my twin grandchildren for family play.

pos: You will need to check with Amazon to measure it for you. This was a gift. I don't have it. It is in CA and I live in FL.

pos: not sure, think they are listed. it seemed small at first, but so perfect for our 2 yr old grandchild.


query: The flashlight hardware was defective and then after 3 months later would not work anymore. That happened to you too?

pos: No so far mine is still working have had some batteries that have failed early and the Chargers are cheaply made.

pos: no the batteries die early but the flash light is still working after a year

pos: No. I have had no trouble with flashlight at all. I recommended it to my neighbors as well. Living in the country, we use it daily (on highest setting). It's distance is great and I have no problems with it at all. The batteries charge last a long time. The label on mine says TrustFire AK-47.

pos: No, The one that I have still works fine, although, I use it very little as I have quite a collection of similar LED flashlights

pos: Yes, it happened to me. I returned it. I bought a Securitylng, 13000 lumen flashlight. It's bronze in color. It has worked great now for 6 months. Note: If one of your Li-Ion batteries has a bad cell, even though it shows it's not completely dead, your flashlight may not work. You need to have the batteries tested.

pos: Ours wouldn't work when it arrived. We got our money back though. Good luck.


query: Did they ever fix the keyboard issue? I'm thinking of getting a TF701 to replace my TF101 but need the keyboard too.

pos: No, on this model after you travel with it in your carry on bag, apparently the keyboard becomes intermittent!

pos: It still from time to time loses connectivity to the tablet, and more frequently, gives you the "unexpected removal of storage device". But, I am typing on it right now, and its giving me no problems.

pos: Occasionally the keyboard is not seen by the tablet, but all you do is flip the locking switch to the side and make it click again and it comes back to life with no problem at all...it doesn't happen often but it's an easy fix that's worth it....

pos: If you're inquiring about an operating issue with the keyboard, sorry I don't know of one. I've had no problems. If you're inquiring about the common complaint that tf101 keyboard doesn't work with the tf701, it's not fixed and won't be. The physical match is not possible. If you're really dependent on a good keyboard for profession, business or hobby, you'll have to pay the price. Maybe a cheap bluetooth (about $13.00) keyboard will do for your needs. I've used both and can get along with either. I've also gotten pretty good with the onscreen keyboard, including this response. Good wishes.

pos: My daughter is size 8. This article size 8 fit her perfectly. I would recommend size 8.

pos: Our son's fit his normal size with a little wiggle room, if she is a size 8, you should get the 8 or maybe even a 10

pos: My son is 7 and ordered size 8. It is a little bit long but still good enough fit for him to wear it right away.

pos: this summer I bought two O'Neil Youth Reactor full suits for my two kids. My son is 11 and my daughter is 9. I bought a size 10 for my 9 year old (which is small/petite for her age group). The suit was big on her (she normally wears a year behind her age) but the suit still fit ok. I expect next summer it'll fit closer to perfect. My 11 year old son is average to large and his 12 fit him pretty well. I expect he'll use it next summer as well, but after that will likely need another. I'd suggest buying the 8 for your daughter.

query: how long are the cables to hook it up?

pos: Without actually measuring, they are about 9 foot. More than enough to hook up to the battery and have plenty of room to actually shapern a saw. I do have the saw on the front of the open hood (the metal that is just in front of the raditor.

pos: I've used another one that I misplaced, it's definitely long enough to work with comfortably. I'm guessing about 4 feet ish. I've used it from my car battery and lawnmower battery quite easily. It does take a little practice to get the angle correct. Sure beats paying someone 5 bucks each time you need the chain sharpened and hands down on using hand files. It also gives the convenience of leaving the chain on the bar and within 5 minutes you are back to cutting wood again. Aarh arrh aaarrrhhh! Tim the Toolman rises again. :-)) thanks for asking Tim

pos: Only about four feet. Kinda wish It reached my tailgate. I just do my sharpening at home with a DC adapter

pos: I would estimate that the cable is 42 inches long. I can measure tomorrow if you need measurement to be exact.

query: Is it ok to use this charging plate with the Wilson Sleek Signal Booster?

pos: If you are asking if your phone will fit in the Signal Booster with the charging plate attached, I would imagine it will; the charging plate is very thin. I just keep it on my phone all the time.

pos: no idea as i don't have one, it does not add any width to the phone only thickness if it fits in the cradle it should be ok. if you're concerned with signal degradation from the charging coils. it has NOT affected my signal weak or strong from various locations. i get full lte and 40mbps at home and 10 mbps 4g hspa at work.

query: does this label printer work on computer with Windows 8.1?

pos: I have not been able to use the Lite editor after installing 8.1. The regular print driver still works though

pos: The installation on my windows 8.1 update machine was not smooth at all. The computer recognized the printer as a USB device but would not communicate with it. After 2 calls to tech support, the problem was escalated to their second tier support desk. The tech there was excellent and spent 1/2 hour working on my computer using remote access. The problem was printer drivers not loading and the cause was the 8.1 update load. After finally getting the computer to recognize the QL700, he had to do a firmware update on the QL700 as there is a known problem using it on windows 8.1. He also had to do a sneaky install of the QL700 driver as if it was a LPT1 connected device and then disable it so that the USB configuration would be recognized. A convoluted process that the average user would never figure out without help ! I can't tell if the cause is a shortcoming in the QL700 or just another Windows related problem. I suspect it's both.


query: Will it work with a 2006 Toyota Highlander Hybrid which has a built in Navigator and 6 disc CD changer?

pos: I have an iPhone so have no idea about the appropriateness of this for the Galaxy Note 2

query: Will it push dual 15"s? 500watt each

pos: It will but dont expect much, it says 1600 watts but its only running one 30 amp fuse... so the power isnt good, so maybe getting 500-800 watts, if that. Try a hifonics amp, good clean power for people on a budget or audiopipe amps. Good luck

pos: In Taiwan, the UL20A product states that Bluetooth is built in. V2.1 Bluetooth.

pos: No Bluetooth. No endorsement here, but you could try something like this for a few bucks: Bluetooth USB 2.0 Micro Adapter Dongle6-cell 4400mAh, 7.5hrs MobileMark2007 score.

pos: The Asus support page for the UL20A has a bluetooth driver for download. Can any owners confirm or deny if there is bluetooth in this laptop?

pos: How many watt hours for the battery ? One site (liliputing) says 47 WHr (which will definitely not last 7.5 hours). However a user on that site that his is 63 WHr, which is much more likely to last the stated 7.5 hours.Thanks for any answer, ASUS.


query: My device has been on the charger for about an hour now it gets really hot but still wont turn on... Any advice?

pos: Try resetting you device, you can use a needle or paper clip to push the button, and that should work.

pos: Sounds like time a "Factory reset" with paper clip *off charger*If no ChangeContact Phillips sorry friendJust a question. ..how long have you had it?

pos: Contact customer's service for Philips for a new one. These devices are no good. I had to eventually after they replaced it. Purchase a new one. But, get a new one from them.

query: Will this phone word for 2 Verizon lines?

pos: I think it should since it's unlocked. I have been changing SIM cards and lines as I want since I bought mine.

pos: I'm not sure it will work for you, but it is a dual sim phone and it is active dual sim. I am however absolutely disappointed in this phone as it is constantly dropping my calls. I mean it is ridiculous!. Without doubt it has become so annoying that my friends don't even bother calling much, because we can't have a wholesome conversation.....it drops the call, I call back, it does it again and it goes on. It is now also having freezing issues. Ugh!! definitely wouldn't recommend it as I know I will soon be buying a different phone and I only got this in May.

query: I carry a Beretta PX4 Subcompact, which holster would that fit in? Its a little chunky but small so was wondering if that was large or small.

pos: I'd probably opt for the large one. I've carried a Walther PK380 in my small holster, and it was about the limit of it. I think the PX4 is a little thicker. I carry a S&W; Shield 40 now in the large holster, and it fits fine, could be a hair tighter but it seems to stay in place, so I think that would be the best choice for your PX4.

pos: The small should work fine (you will have better access), but it would also fit in a large - if you have other larger pistols, the large will be more versatile.

pos: I carry a Ruger SR9C or the SR45: I bought the Packin Tee Holster Shirt (BLACK, XL W/ RH Large Holster). The holster is under the left armpit, as I draw with my right hand. I have a 44 inch chest and this Tee fights right. Weapon fits well, even with a 17 round magazine (keep a look shirt though).

pos: That might be a question for the seller or manufacturer, don't think I am qualified to answer that sorry.


query: is this compatable with samsung galaxy s4

pos: No it would not be compatible. It is only compatible with 2 or 3 tablet models. .

pos: My guess would be no. If the s4 uses the same micro USB connection as the s3 then this product will not be able to connect. I only have an s3 however so I can not say for sure


query: Can you purchase this plan after you purchase your computer

pos: I really don't know. The pdf terms & conditions at least implies that you must purchase at the same time as the product. You can read this yourself by clicking on pdf under product details at Amazon sales page for this plan. Further down the Amazon sales page from the manufacture it says "purchase your plan up to 11 months after your product." I would contact them: mysmartguard.com or 18773088071.

pos: I really don't know.purchased mine same time than my LENOVO.SO FAR didn't have to use it.


query: Does this come with any kind of hook mechanism for hanging, or should I purchase one separately?

pos: It just comes with a closed loop hanger on top; So you would need another hook to hang it from something.

pos: I don't really remember because I gave this as a gift; however, she hung it immediately on a shepard's hook, so it must have had a loop for hanging.


query: is this compatible with logitech wireless keyboard K400r? I misplaced it somehow, I still have the keyboard and extended reciever.

pos: Check the bottom of the device for the orange square with a gear in it (Same one as in the picture for the receiver.) If it does, then these receivers work. Else, if the device is more than 3 years old, do not expect it to work, if the device is newer, hit and miss (For example the K260 wireless keyboard combo set the keyboard will work with these receivers, it's companion mouse will not.)

pos: If your keyboard has the unifying log (or you previously had a USB receiver with the logo) then it will work. If your keyboard does not have the unifying logo (orange block with asterisk in the middle), then this will not work, but it sounds to me like you had the USB piece before and just lost it.

query: I cannot find an on/off switch. Where is it? The only way to turn it off currently is to unplug it. the temperature control doesn't turn it off.

pos: there is no off switch. to turn machine off you have to unplug it. I have been doing this all along, no big deal :)

pos: You are correct. There is no ON/OFF switch. This unit pairs nicely with a cheap plug-in timer from a hardware store (under $10). Then you can set the length of time you want it to run, and the timer will switch it off.

pos: There is no on/off switch. You have to just unplug it from the electrical outlet


query: How tall is the front of the drinking plate?

query: What size mattress depth does this twin size Serta 233 thread count waterproof low voltage electric mattress pad fit on. My mattress is 12.5 inches in depth. Will it fit that size of a mattress?

pos: I have a very large, deep , new mattress and this fits with plenty of room. Sorry, do not have a ruler handy.


query: Does this curler fit for use in a country that a normal household electricity is at 220V?

pos: I don't think it would work without a converter. I have 110V electricity and it works well here.


query: Since it takes more than twice as long as white rice to cook, how much water should I use when I make it in my (cheap) rice cooker?

pos: I follow the instructions on the label. 1-3/4 water. I actually use chicken broth. Add 1 cup rice and 2 tablespoons pure olive oil or 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil. I always use the brown rice setting and it's perfect every time in my inexpensive rice cooker.

pos: the bag provides explicit instructions but it is approximately two parts water to one part rice. i own many Lundberg rice blends and each one is a little different but i think they are great.

pos: It's still a two-to-one ratio. The package actually says to use less water, but I find that the rice comes out too tough/undercooked if I don't use a two-to-one ratio. So, basically, cook it the same way you would cook white rice.

pos: I am not the one to ask - I botched the cooking of it and gave it away...sorry

pos: I've never used a rice cooker, but I use about 2-2 1/2 cups water for every cup of brown rice for cooking it on the stove top. Maybe you can convert this to what you need for your rice cooker.

pos: I do use a rice cooker. You can use the exact amount suggested by instructions, but I find I like just a little more water a couple of tablespoons toa 1/4 cup more. I also either add some olive oil to the water or lightly grease the bottom with solid Crisco to help prevent sticking.

pos: I cook it in my rice cooker all the time. I use the same amount of water as for white rice. I like it a bit chewy. You might add an extra Tablespoon or two of water if you like it softer.


query: How much bulk does this case add?

pos: I think for how safe I feel my phone is, it's great it's not a huge case not anywhere close to the bulk an otterbox would add. I wear tight jeans and it fits in my back pocket just fine.

pos: With case phone is about 1/2 thick compared to the 0.35 depth without the case . It really doesnt add as much bulk as I have seen with some of the iPhone cases. They do sell a feather version which I belive is even thinner, just doesnt have the silixone bumper layer.


query: What size ID tubing does this particular pump accept?

pos: What a wonderful quiet, effective workhorse. I have a 48 by 12 by 20 high saltwater tank. The live rock stands up in the center for 4 feet. No refugiumThis is the only pump for the water flow and the in-tank gravity fed filter. It just "keeps on ticking," and quietly, never a problem. I have soft coral, hard coral, purple live rocks, yellow coral, crazy fish, and it is all fed by this one pump. I in my 14th year of salt. I change a fabric filter daily. I replace 10 gallons of saltwater monthly. I keep is SIMPLE. The pump is the heart.

pos: 3/4 inch. It helps to soften the tubing in hot water before you put it on the first time.


query: Why do the pics looks fuzzy? Does anyone know how to remedy this?

pos: If you are in continuous focus mode, try changing to single shot focus - check your manual. Continous focus will let you take a picture even if the camera has not had time to properly focus. Single shot focus will only take a pic if it is in focus. Make sure the O.I.S. is in "mode 2." Set the focus mode to center only. It could be that another sensor is doing the focusing and it is not in the center. Press the shutter slowly - don't jab at it. Check that you are not in "macro" mode and trying to do a really close focus on something with the zoom all the way extended. Wait for the center "square" to turn green before pressing the shutter button all the way down. Maybe try a tripod or lean against something as a brace. Change to a higher ISO if the subject is likely to move or is moving - or - use the "intelligent ISO" mode. Try "sports" mode for a somewhat faster shutter spead. If none of these things works individually or in combination, you may have a defective camera - call a Panasonic repair facility. Good luck.


query: Can this frame be used for both horizontal and vertical photos? I don't see that info in the description. TIA!

pos: Yes though the way the decorative element swoops down into the space where you will place the photo can get in the way depending on what photo you are using (like it could cut into someone's head in the photo). Guess you need to think about what photo you are going to use in relation to that.

pos: Hi Ellen , yes this frame goes either way & is beautiful. Looks much more expensive than it is!


query: Some remarks about this modem being old, but it's what Time Warner provided. I really wouldn't know what to pick instead. Landline not attached.

pos: If you need a cable modem for TWC, this one will work with their tiers up to 38Mbps in speed. If you wanted a slightly newer modem you could opt for a Motorola SB5101.

pos: I have comcast and this modem works fine for me.....but they keep asking me to change it and purchase the newer model which can accept higher speeds. Unless you are paying for a top internet speed from your provider you don't need the upgrade to this modem. This is a DOCSIS 2.0 modem and the newer one is the DOCSIS 3.0 modem....with a higher price. I guess this item is the "older" one but it works well with many providers (I've been told) and it's definately easy to set up. I'd check out both modems and see if the upgrade is something you want or need.

pos: If you need the landline port in the back for your landline, then this unit will not serve your purposes, if you have an Ooma device, or a Basic Talk device, or a Magic Jack, or some other device to extract voice from the modem, it should be just fine. But if you are getting your voice directly from the modem, then you will need the phone port in the back of the modem. The model DCM 424 has the port in the back of it and sells for somewhere around $35.00. I'm with Time Warner and that is the model I have and it works very well. But check with your provider and see what units are compatible with their system. If you are comfortable on the computer, you can go to their website and find that out. But again, if you do not have some other phone device that will connect to the modem to get voice, then do not buy this unit, because you will need one with a phone port on the back of it.

pos: i don't know if this is old or not...mediacom issues the same one. it works great and was easy to set up. mediacom detected it right away. i rebooted the system and was off and running. time warner may have a list of acceptable modems on their website. mediacom has a list on theirs, but i don't know much about this stuff, so i called the tech department. in the end, i just ordered this one which is the exact one i already had from the company.


query: Does it have any Microsoft applications?

pos: I am not sure...If you are referring to the Microsoft Programs such as Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. I had to buy those program licenses independently and install on the computer.

pos: Hi Sandy, My Acer came preloaded with a trial of Office. Once the trial is up you can purchase the full version. Is there a Microsoft application in particular that you are looking for? Let me know, I can check to see if it came on mine. I have been super happy with my Acer. It gets heavy use as my "office."

query: How thick is the cord? I need to know how big of a glass drill bit I need.

pos: I used a 1/4 in glass drill bit. It takes a while and I suggest using plenty of water or soap while drilling but it turns out really nice.

pos: It's a regular cord. I used a half inch diamond drill bit-- goes much faster than that spade bits. You must use water or oil to keep the bit from over- heating. I also used a half inch grommet to protect the cord from the glass hole. Good luck Tom!

pos: Same size as any common house hold lamp, I recommend using a dremel with a thick diamond bit or you're gunna crack the bottle

pos: I drilled a 1/4" hole so it would not scrape the cord to much but you can get away with a 3/16" hole.

pos: It's basically your average extension cord or lamp cord. My husband put mine togther with the cord coming out the bottom side of the light socket (as opposed to directly out the bottom) so I did not even need to drill at all.

query: Hi, I'm buying this as a gift for my boyfriend. He's 6'3, 185lbs. Muscular but lean... what would be a good size?

pos: If it's a normal fit and not compression I'd go with XXL. It also depends if he likes his shirts tight fitting. See I do not.

pos: Go with the xl, mine wears a large usually but really liked the fit of the xl

pos: The guy I bought one for is 6'0", 163 muscular lean but he said the X-large fit just right, so a size XXL might be good.


query: We have problems with our windows sweating and icing up in the winter because our house is "too tight." Will this thing help?

pos: I'm not sure if it would.. it does do a very good job of taking air out of an area, but as far as using as a dehumidifier it is useless. It worked ok in the dead of winter but as soon as thaw came I had to go purchase another traditional style dehumidifier, as this did nothing... was up to 95% humidity in basement.


query: This looks similar to Bosch 12V Li-Ion battery. Are they interchangeable?

pos: Sorry, but I don't have any Bosch tools, so I wouldn't know. However, I am pretty sure each manufacturer makes the charger and tool so that only their battery will fit/work. Maybe if Bosch is the parent company... I found the battery I thought I'd lost and will look at the packaging to see if it includes information about which brands it's compatible with, if any. Can't do this for a day or so because I just don't have the time right now. (I'm thinking of chain saw blades that list which saws they work with.)

pos: They look very similar, but I can not confirm. You may want to try an aftermarket battery seller.

pos: Sorry, I'm not familiar with the Bosch 12V Li-Ion battery. Have you tried Batteries Plus? They seem to be a great resource for batteries. I also did a quick Google search for your question and I found this reply. Dremel 875-01 12V Max 1.3ah Li-Ion Battery Scroll down to the second comment.Let me know how it works out for you.Cheers,

query: Would this happen to be legal in NJ, USA?

pos: It should be, have a look at http://drivinglaws.aaa.com/laws/tire-chains/ When using tire chains, be sure that the conditions require them. Don't drive around with tire chains on if the roads are bare and you probably shouldn't be on the interstate with them. Only use them in the most demanding conditions.


query: What shoe size would a mediUm and large be

pos: I wear a size 14 shoe and I wear the XL size in these socks. They fit my foot perfect. I would say 6-10 = M; 10-13 = L; 14+ = XL


query: Will this fit an HP touchsmart 14.0 inch 14z-f000 Sleekbook?

pos: i would check what other sizes they have, it fits my computer, but it is an HP pavillion g series that is 17.5 inches. but i think i did see that they had other options, search the computer type when you put it in the search bar

pos: It will fit a note book but I have a desk top and it did not fit my key board


query: I'm looking for a running shoe that will be lowcut and not show above sneaker. will this do the trick?

query: is it possible to remove both sides limbs?

pos: yeppers...Its just a screw pin for GlenoHumeral joint and AcetabularFemoral joint. Easy to remove.


query: Will this measure to any object? I am looking to use this for long range rifle shooting.

pos: it will measure to anything you can put the laser on, but if you are looking beyond 500 yards there are specific rangefinders for firearms.

pos: Definitely would work for that. You get the distant to a rock, tree or sand bunker. Just do not know how much distance you would require. Range finder has a maximum yardage range.

pos: Yes.. I use it for trees and other areas on the course. It doesn't work in fog...


query: I've had mine airing outside for a week due to strong chemical odor - anyone else experience this? Would not let cats near it unless it clears up.

pos: I recently purchased one of these and also experienced a strong chemical odor after unwrapping the plastic covering. I 'aired' it out for two weeks in a spare room before allowing my cats to use it. They have a choice of using the 'old' scratching post or this new SmartCat post; they really like the new one! Although I found the sticker on the bottom of the product that states that the amount of formaldehyde used in the product is within guidelines, I was concerned with the lingering odor. (I've tried to reduce or eliminate 'chemical-based' products from my home; animals are especially sensitive to pollutants.) I contacted the company and was told that if I was still unhappy with the product that they would replace it immediately. The 'customer service' was great and my questions were answered satisfactorily. It seems that the factory where this scratching post is manufactured is supposed to wait a specific amount of time before packaging, in order to allow lingering odors to dissipate; apparently, that wasn't done in this case. I like that the scratching post is centered on the base, and that the base isn't covered with carpeting. It was easy to assemble and seems to be very sturdy.

pos: I don't remember if I noticed anything when I got it, but probably not. I just got up close to mine to see if there's any odor now, but all I smell is the sisal. How annoying for you!

pos: Mine (I bought 2) did "smell new". But the odor went away in a day or so. . .

pos: Slight wood finish or plastic odour when opened the box, but couldn't smell anything after a couple of days (never took it outside). Cats didn't mind, especially after I rubbed catnip into the sides--it was like they read the manual of what to do with this thing :)

pos: I didn't notice that myself - there was a slight odor (newness) at first that I didn't notice after the first day- but I have a heavy duty air cleaner on at all times because of my allergies so not sure if that helped.

pos: I bought mine years ago but do not recall any offensive odor, my cat was interested in it before I even put it together. Perhaps contacting the manufacturer and asking if they might know what the cause of the odor is would help.

pos: I ordered two posts and neither had a discernible smell other than a slight "newness" odor that went away quickly. I've had chronic problems with both my cats regarding where they scratch, but they use this post without hesitation. I highly recommend it.


query: My son wants poly covered strings? Are these considered poly covered as I don't see anything about that

pos: Hey there, nope these are uncoated strings. Your son may be looking for Elixir polywebs

pos: do not believe these are poly covered. a good brand for poly covered would be Elixir as they carry a variety of them.

pos: I don't know anything about 'poly covered strings for an 'Electric Guitar. These are not for an acoustic guitar. I get these for my son. He's a lead guitar player in a 'Rock Band. He told me that he won't use any strings EXCEPT these.


query: My old Airdyne seems really loud after a long period of not using it. Could it be that the chain needs oiling? How do I do this?

pos: Put some heavy weight household oil on it. Nothing fancy like Teflon oil since the bike isn't going out in the rain. Put a big throw rug under the bike in case it throws some oil droplets when you use it.

pos: Mine doesn't do that, and I'm not a mechanic. Lubrication sounds reasonable, but I don't know. Sorry.

pos: I have a airdyne I purchased in 1992. It is also loud when pedaling ,I have 38,000 miles on it and have replaced several wedge pins and crank brackets over the years. I completely disassembled it and lubricated and adjusted everything. the bottom bracket is good. It was quieter for several days and is getting louder each ride! I'm at a loss how to quiet it down.I just shut my door and crank up my headphones.

pos: Sorry I don't know but sure don't see the harm in it. Mine is just over 2 years and use it often.


query: Does it come with ideas on how to set it up? And can it use regular marbles or just the ones provided?

pos: The ones provided are not weirdly small. They are a common marble on the smaller side, if that makes sense. It comes with about 14 marbles, I think. It does not layout different track styles in a booklet. You don't really need one, the possibilities are endless. I promise you will be fine. I think you should buy the one box but know that it is way cooler with two. So if you see the love for it get ready to buy another box! We still love this toy.

pos: There are not alternate set up ideas provided, but the set is easy to set up in many way. I bought it for my three year old grandson and he could easily put it together in many shapes with a little help. You can use other marbles, but they need to be the slightly smaller one. It also works best if all the marbles you run at one time are the same type or weight. This is really the best marble run toy.

pos: No, and I am not pleased by the no directions. The original had a bunch of different ways to set up but I ended up taking a picture of the set up I have and use it all of the time. You need to buy small marbles at toys r us, they have to be on the small side.

pos: Yes! There are some ideas of how to build it and any marble works fine with it. If your kids are anything like mine, you'll need to replace lost marbles eventually. :) This is a fabulous set. My siblings and I played with Marbleworks for hours as kids and now we are buying additional sets for our kids. Enjoy!

pos: It does not come with ideas on how to set up beyond what's on the packaging box. However, it is pretty easy to set up once you get the hang of it and there's enough pieces to make different configurations each time so it's always interesting to kids. It does use regular marbles so easy to replace if you lose one. Also, you didn't ask but the pieces are a lot sturdier than other brands. This should last you a long time. I hope this helps.


query: What are the full dimensions? 3 x 2 x 2?

pos: I can give you the dimensions of the pan it fits in. My wife uses a 3 1/2" long x 2 1/4" wide x 1 1/4" deep pan and also mentioned that you can find the filters at Jo Ann's or Michael's

pos: I no longer have any to take measurements. You may be able to find info on wilton.com. I've also seen them sold in stores such as JoAnn's, Michael's etc.


query: I see the battery pack in on the rear wheel. Is there any way to put a rack on top of it? I need to be able to carry packages. Also, is it easy to fold/unfold? Is it easy to carry or wheel?

pos: The battery pack itself can support up to six pounds safely. beyond that, you may be able to attach a rear rack directly to the frame. The bike is pretty easy to fold and unfold. The handlebar lock is a little tricky to figure out. Once you figure it out, it holds together well. The big is easy to wheel, as it isn't super heavy. It does need both hands to lift, but the U-shaped crosspiece in front of the seat makes a handy second handhold for lifting onto/off trains.


query: Would this help my lag situation with my ps3? I use a router and everyone in the house uses the wifi all day long. Hard time gaming without lag.

pos: Yes.. I use this for my ps3 for the same reason you should get one. Having your ps3 plugged in ..is always faster then WiFi. You will not get more speed then you are paying for. You will get faster Internet. Because your ps3 is plugged in.


query: Is there a pull out shelf under the center of the desk for a computer keyboard?

pos: Hello. Yes there is a pull out keyboard shelf. You can see it in the picture. It can be attached on the right side of the desk, or the left side, or diagonally in the "corner" where both sides meet.

pos: Yes there is. It can come off track easily if you are too rough with it. But all in all we couldn't be happier with our desk.

pos: Yes, there is a pull-out shelf, which can be mounted under either side of the L. On the photo, it's barely visible but is shown on the portion of the desk with the hutch above it.

pos: It's not under the corner if that's what you are asking. It's under one of the sides.


query: Do they fit men as well as women?

pos: I would think if you order the correct size for the person it would fit like any other gloves on a man just as easily as a woman.

pos: They do fit both men and women. If you have long fingers however they will fit a little shorter on you.

pos: Yes, but you may want to order a size up from what you normally would wear, these are pretty "petit" the way they fit

pos: The gloves are unisex. Unless you have unusually large hands I think a size medium would fit well.

pos: The gloves come in sizes. If you order the correct size for your hands, it won't matter if you are a man or a woman.

pos: I am certain they would. The important thing would be measuring your hand as they recommend.

pos: Yes, they stretch to fit. I even wear the left glove on my right hand sometimes.


query: I purchased this lens and being new to macro photography I'm confused on how to set the lens to 1:1.

pos: Macro lenses can be used for standard photography. If you use one to take a distant object, that object is not a 1:1 size with your captured image. Macro capability means that you can move the lends in close enough so that the captured image is the same size as the object being photographed. Non-macro lenses do not allow you to get in that close and still be able to focus on the object.

pos: The minimum focus distance is 0.15m. At that distance the magnification should be at least 1:1.

pos: There is no setting on the lens or camera to make it 1:1. At the closest distance, I think the magnification is even larger than 1:1. If you really want 1:1 magnification, you can figure it out by taking a photo of a tape measure and compare with the picture on the sensor (scaled to the LCD monitor). If you want, you can take a look at my Facebook page: peter mioduszewski....The sensor of mft is 18 mm x 13.5 mm, if you take the picture of a 10 mm object (tape measure), it has to be 10 mm on the sensor. That is 1:1 in the strict sense. If you want 1:1, the object can not be bigger than the sensor. There is no setting on the lens or camera to make it 1:1.

pos: There is a sliding button on the barrel of the lens that switches the lens from normal to macro. Switched to Full allows the lens to do macro photography or 1:1 which means macro. The focal length at this setting is 6 inches to 1.6 ft. I normally do not change the switch from Full as this is an excellent lens and produces the best fine art images at that setting. Go to the following website for more help. http://panasonic.net/avc/lumix/systemcamera/gms/lens/dg_macro_45.htmlHope this was a help.

pos: The specs for this lens are at: http://www.four-thirds.org/en/microft/macro.html


query: The female end of this product is 3/4" fine thread and the male is 3/4" coarse, correct?

pos: Yes. Female machine threads mate with the outside faucet and standard male hose threads do their thing.


query: I bought this, I'm trying to use it with my 50mm or 85mm, but I can't get it to focus, tried it in Manual focus, still wont work.

pos: The tube makes your depth of field incredibly pronounce. You might want to remove all but the smallest ring. The actual focal length of your lens is fairly close to the actually lens. If you hold an object very close to the lens, you will be able to get the object in focus. For instance, lie the camera down in some grass. It makes the DOF so shallow, that only one or two blades will remain in focus.

pos: The tube will not focus automatically. Since it is set up for fine photography, I use a tripod to keep it steady. A minor motion is all you need to focus. Remember if the surface is not even valleys will be in focus while higher points will not.

pos: May I suggest you watch some videos posted on you tube for a clear explination as to how to correctly use these.

pos: I had the same issue with the 50mm, until I realized that at a certain point you have to physically move in and out to achieve the focus you are looking for.


query: Anyone buy this in an A3? If so, how much does it weight? Also, is it IBJJF tournament legal?

pos: I bought the A3, it weighs 3lbs on the dot. I used it to compete in the US Open a couple days ago and it's definitely IBJJF approved. Also it's one of the most comfortable Gi's I've ever owned...and I own some really top level Gi's.


query: can you put worms in the composter

pos: Well, worms are a natural by-product of composting. The worms eat the food scraps and their waste is what makes up the compost and the compost tea. You would not actually have to put worms in the compost tumbler with your food scraps, they come naturally to eat the scraps. I don't think THIS compost tumbler is meant to house worms or be a WORM composter. There are special compost devices specifically for WORM COMPOSTING.

pos: I think tumbling will kill them. I will know more after we have completed a batch.

pos: To my original batch of compostable materials I added some local worms as well as some red worms I purchased online. They seem to be doing just fine with a once a week tumble so I encourage the addition of some worms to your tumbler to speed and enhance the composting process. If my worms prove too frail to survive the tumbling, they don't deserve to be called real worms and they'll just become part of the compost!

pos: While you technically can, I've always been told that the tumbling action will kill them before they have a chance to do anything. This type of composer is best for rotting and not worm based. A standard compost pile would be better for worms.

pos: Actually, i just dumped compost from my tumbler & found a few good sized red worms who are quite alive in the finished compost. They must be quite hearty creatures. If you want to raise them, use a Sun Joe Worm Farm. They will be happier.


query: Does it fit for my mdx 2002

pos: This kit has several different double male attachments that will make it work for a variety of cars and truck. I'm not sure if it will work for your vehicle or not.


query: Does the T300 remove mold from the air?

pos: I believe mold is relatively large, so it will. However, you will probably want to get a unit with a silver filter in it to kill any trapped mold spores.

pos: The product advertises removal of mold spores from the air, but I haven't had an independent air analysis. I can tell you that mold is one of my allergies (among others such as my household pets) and this device has provided a marked improvement in my allergy response. As far as I'm concerned, definitely worth the investment! A quality product.

pos: I just replaced the filters in my unit and found that there are 2 types of filters to buy. One has 'silver' in it to remove mold, I'm told and the other cheeper version by $10 doesn't have silver. I'm not sure what the unit ships with. Personally, I really like the unit and can see visually every morning no dust in the air. I also sit next to one at work making a nice pocket of clean air and reducing my allergies to mold, pollin, etc. At the 2nd power setting its very quiet like a small fan on low.

pos: I do not know for sure if it removes mold. I am not allergic to mold, but I believe the UV light setting will kill airborne mold. I mainly got it for dust and dog dander allergies for my now toddler son. I still use it daily and love the air purifier with all its option settings and filter change indicator (changing every 9 months).

I have had the T300 for 2 months now and I still wake up breathing clear in the morning. It is truly the most life changing thing I have ever bought. I am allergic to just about everything.

query: I love playing words with friends but last night a message popped up for an upgrade, the up grade doesn't work and now I can't even play the game.

pos: Hello. I understand what's going on. Have you tried deleting it and then reinstall it. That should work. Every now and then the upgrade will kick everyone out. If that doesn't work let me know and I'll help again.

pos: Words with Friends is amazing! Have you tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling? If you have an iOS device you should be able to hold your finger on the icon and it will display a small X. Click the X then press the face button on the phone. Installing from the App Store should be easy after that!

pos: I don't know but me I take photo with a Canon 7D and a lens 70-200 and it's very stable and I love to work with this monopod. Sorry for my english but I am french speaking.


query: How much is the sound output? Other similarly priced products claim upto 2000W. Is this suitable for a 3000sqft hall use for small musical nights?

pos: We have the Peavey Messenger. The Peavey Audio Performer is larger than what we need, so I don't really have an answer for you.


query: Will they fit a Dodge Ram 1500 year 2002?

pos: Yes, they will fit Dodge Ram 1500 to 3500 models for the years 2002 - 2008. We were very happy with our purchase for our Ram 3500 - 2007 model year.


query: This is a tip truck, does it actually tip?

pos: This is a fantastic toy and it DOES TIP. The best thing about it, though, is the battery-powered drill which works. It allows the child to unscrew many parts of the truck, taking it completely apart, and then screw them all back on again.

pos: Yes it does tip. I works like an actual dump truck but your child can take it apart.

pos: I gave it to my grandson for his birthday but didn't actually get to see him play with it, sorry.


query: Yamaha YHT-599UBL, I would like to know how many boxes are included in the shipment?

query: Is this product two 6 ft cables or two 3ft cables combined for a total of 6ft?

pos: Two separate 6ft cables. I've had them for quite a few months now, and they both still work perfectly!


query: What is the sound decibels of this unit while running, say, around 1/2 load? Thanks

pos: I'm sorry I can't find anything on that. It says it has 212CC engine. It also has automatic shutoff for low oil.

pos: There is little difference in sound from idle to 1/2 load. In fact, it seemed this unit hardly noticed the load (which was a 1500+ watt kettle).


query: can i get progressive prescription in a pair of clics ?

pos: Sure! Bring your frames and perscription to your local eyewear store and they can do it.

pos: I'm not sure. They come in standard "reader" strengths. I suppose you could take them to your optometrist to see if they can replace the standard lenses with your personal prescription.

pos: No .Over the counter eyeglasses cannot replace the eyeglass prescription of your eye doctor.The pair of chics I purchased were disappointing in my experience with them.They did not replace my prescription eyeglasses.

pos: Hello Dean Brown, Clic glasses can be replaced with prescription lenses but we do not do this. I cannot tell you if progressive lenses would work in this pair of glasses. Your eye doctor should be able to tell you if progressive lenses would work in this frame. Thank you for shopping with us, Karen davisbigandtall

pos: The frame size and design is similar to other eye wear that does not have the Clic magnetic function. I would think that an eye glass shop near you could put your prescription lens in to Clic frames.

pos: Hello Dean Brown,Clic glasses can be replaced with prescription lenses but we do not do this. I cannot tell you if progressive lenses would work in this pair of glasses.

query: Is this grill too large for one person?

pos: Hi Gulf Breeze - I can definitely confirm it is fine for one person if you are a big meat eater. I use it to make myself 1kg of chicken a day and it works just fine

pos: No, it is good for 1 to 4 people unless u have plenty of time to cook for a larger group.

pos: It is a moderate size. It depends on how much you want to grill. We grill small amount and I think it fits to 1 to 3 persons.

pos: No. it is fine for 1 or 2 people. it is nice for 1 o2 because it has the grill bars are so close together you can be grilling the entree on one side and a side dish of vegetables or partially precooked potatoes on the other. I live alone but have filled the grill with an entire meal of meat, vegetables and potatoes. If you were just cooking burgers it will hold 4 easy and 6 if you put them close together which is not optimal. It is better to space the food apart some. It is one of the smaller grills on the market.


query: Will this canister work for model number DC1900 C??

pos: my advise is to check with Jet parts , they have a toll free phone number and can answer your question. I had to buy a new housing for my older model ,but the increased performance was worth it.


query: What is the size of the plug? （1/4 Inch ？ 1/8 Inch？ ）

pos: It's a 1/4" plug, but you can buy the 1/4" to 1/8" adapter in order to make it suitable for cell phones.

pos: Yes, according to the Yamaha website, the PA 130 is recommended for the PSRE 243.

pos: I don't Know but just look up the adapter on line and it will tell you if it is.


query: can you put it out in winter months

pos: If there's snow on the ground I wouldn't. The motor won't get along with the wet conditions. But living here in Northwest Florida with temps for the most part in the low 40's I don't think there'd be a problem. I would think rolling it up when done and fitting in the bag could be a bear of a task though. Not sure I would set it up.

pos: not really sure about outside, but I know my son puts it up in the house/garage for the kids to use in winter.

pos: I'm not sure I would leave motor out... it seems that the worse culprit is the sun. Bought for my daughter and she tried to bring in every day but became lax after time. It lasted for 2 years but we loved it so much, I bought another. The sun weakened the fabric but if you don't leave out, it can last a long time. Love the value! Kids were on it constantly!

pos: I think it's going to depend on how cold your winter gets. I don't know if it has any guidelines about temperature (it's at my grandkids' house) - but I would expect that the material might become brittle below 40 degrees. I doubt it would be wise to set it up below 50 degrees. Please note that this is conjecture only. I know that my daughter has set it up in the garage several times during the "colder" months in Virginia.


query: Can you buy a separate base to fit in a second vehicle or is it all one piece?

pos: It is all one piece. It's not very convenient to move around (but not impossible) but I'd recommend just keeping it in one car.

pos: It's all one piece! It is a convertible car seat not infant seat! It's very easy to switch back and forth also.

pos: This is all one piece... it is not an infant seat for travel systems. This is what you would use when your child is too big for those (I couldn't really get my baby and the infant seat in and out of the car easily at 7 months). These are WAY more comfortable for the baby, so once you are not using your infant seat as a travel system, I would upgrade to this. You can then turn this forward facing as your child gets older.

pos: It is all in one piece. None of the "convertible" or non-infant carseats come with bases which conversely allows the higher weight limit.

pos: It's all one piece, but the best car seat out there. Expensive but well worth the money!


query: Could you please tell me if the BW® Star N9589-Grey comes with a built in touch pen / stylus? Does the white version? It is shown on pictures for the White but not the Grey version.

pos: Yes it is with a built in touch pen/stylus. We have white and grey color, welcome to buy from us and mail us your prefer color.


query: Have they corrected the switch problem

pos: I have not had any problems in 25 long sessions using various speeds. The machine is as good as thought it might be. I hope this helps.

pos: Didn't know there was a switch problem, but my recent purchase is not showing any issue.

pos: I am unaware of a "switch problem". Our unit works very well... we have had it for 6 months and use it daily for 30-60 minutes.

pos: Between my family members and I we have four of these, have had them from one month to two years and none of the units have ever had a problem with the switch.


query: Will using this jumper cause damage to an electrical system/computer on newer cars e.g. 2008 Toyota Highlander?

pos: Probably not considering a jump from a AAA roadside guy is a stronger potential difference.

pos: I don't know, you may want to contact the manufacture. If you want my opinion, here it is: If you are stalled somewhere and can't get your car started, don't you need something that can get it started? If you call AAA or a towing service, how do you know that their jumper will cause you damage. The point is, you need a start and I recommend this for ME.


query: Would this be good for a 2 yr. old?

pos: I bought this for my 5 year old granddaughter and it was too hard for her to play with. It is of decent quality, but it was too hard for her to be able to guide the hoops onto the sticks and for a younger child I felt the sticks were too close together. Better for older kids or adults.

pos: I think 2 might be too young. I don't think coordination is good enough to toss the rings as intended although the kid could still play with it. If the kid is unstable on the feet, I would worry about falling on the upright sticks.

pos: My 2 year old plays perfectly fine with it and loves it. Depends on the child (and the parents ;) )


query: How much caffeine in Tetly British Blen Premium Black tea bag?

pos: I put this question to my cousin, the black sheep of the family: "When compared to traditional square tea bags, how much more caffeine is in the Tetley round ones?" He responded, "Three bags full." I'm not sure I trust his answer because he gave me the same response when I asked him how much wool was in the new sweater he bought.

pos: According to Bing about 40mg. This is by far the best tea I have ever tasted. Makes delicious ice tea too.I am a tea drinker, raise on my grandmothers and mothers tea. They are both gone now, but I enjoy my cuppa and have wonderful memories of them.

pos: According to Bing about 40mg. This is by far the best tea I have ever tasted. Makes delicious ice tea too. I am a tea drinker, raise on my grandmothers and mothers tea. They are both gone now, but I enjoy my cuppa and have wonderful memories of them.

pos: Went straight to the company and this is what they said: "There are between 40 and 50 milligrams of caffeine in a typical eight-ounce cup of brewed black tea or green tea steeped for three to five minutes."

pos: Nothing on the box about the amount of caffine . They do make a decaf-black tea, but remember that the chemicals used to decaffinate -gives you more problems than the caffine.


query: can this be used to shampoo and clean a shag carpet?

pos: My answer would be no. You might be able to vacuum up excess water in the carpet but you'd need something else to accomplish the actual shampooing.


query: Does the guitar come with cables for an amp, and a strap?

pos: no, you provide your own but it does have good quality strings. So often with lower priced instruments you need to replace the strings. You will also want a good chromatic tuner for guitar and bass such as Fender Accessories 009-1160-000 Clipon Chrome Tuner for only $7.11 right now on Amazon.

pos: Mine came with a cable for the amp, no strap. It also came with a key for adjusting the bridge and a key for the truss rod.

pos: My purchase did not, but I believe they did have a package that bundled those things. I just didn't need them.


query: I have a very stubborn hair, my hair has never relaxed before, anytime I put relaxer after washing it will come back natural again . Can I use this , hope it will relax my hair

pos: My natural hair is VERY thick and coarse. If you apply this relaxer and make sure you go back and SMOOTH it afterward, I can't imagine that your hair would revert. I just did my touch up this past weekend and I had A LOT of thick, new growth. My hair is so straight and manageable, it's amazing!

pos: If your having a hard time with your hair taking the relaxer if would suggestgoing to a professional to get your hair straight and after I would recommend this relaxer. I have thick. Hair and this relaxer works well with straightening my hair. I would recommend watching YouTube videos to see what pl with simular hair texture to yours do or recommend

pos: With good products my daughter's hair stays smooth and straight. It's also makes chicken more relaxed when she leaves it down and natural.


query: I have a sore wrist when I do plank position or push ups. would these help for this?

pos: Yes, absolutely. I started wearing them during yoga classes and they really took all of the pressure off of my wrists!

pos: Definitely will help. May be a bit too stiff at the start. Will need to be worked in.


query: Does this come with a remote control? if not, what kind works with it?

pos: No it does not, but any insteon controller will work, here is a link to one popular type, http://shop.haworldonline.com/Insteon-Mini-Remote-4-Scene-Keypad-2342-232-11605.htm. They are also available on Amazon. The Insteon hub will allow you to use a PC Tablet or smartphone as a remote controller as well.


query: Will it fit my new 5/8 inch hose?

pos: I'm pretty sure it will. Check the specs on it before deciding whether or not to order.


query: Could I know the exp date for it if I buy it now

pos: The expiration is always different. I've always received bottles with an expiration at least a year or later from now.


query: Will this controller work with/recognize SATA-III drives? I have WD RED with jumpers to force SATA-II

pos: I don't see why not. I'm running two new WD Blue 1TB drives (striped) and they work fine.


query: How big are the capsules?

pos: they aren't little pills. about as large a gel cap as you commonly see. I don't know the exact size. I wasn't taking them myself. But I could see someone who has a hard time swallowing pills having a rough time with these.

pos: They are a whopping 1300mg, as it says on the bottle. That's bigger than the vast majority of fish gels out there. Yikes.

pos: They are about an inch long. I take fish oil supplements and they are about the same size.


query: I would like to start in a pot, then transplant to outside. 1. Is this possible? 2. How lont does it typically take to germinate?

pos: Not sure about any of that. I did get a lot of seeds but some came up some not. and after awhile all the leaves fell off. didn't even get a chance to plant outside.

pos: I wasn't able to get any seeds to germinate and sprout. It has been suggested to me since then that it might help to place seed in the freezer for a few weeks before planting.


query: does it work with the regular kindle fire?

pos: When you search for a bluetooth keyboard , type in kindle fire and it will show you all that are compatible. Hope this helps.

pos: I googled it right now and it says you can pair your kindle fire to a bluetooth keyboard. ;) I bought it for my daughter she loves it.


query: Are the feet removable? I need it to be 13 1/4", looks like 14" tall with the feet...

pos: Did not try to remove. There needs to be space for air circulation. I do not recommend this microwave for other reasons...the door latch is designed poorly and failed within one year of use. Check the other Amazon comments that did not give a high rating and they seem to echo my problem. Even with extended warranty...do you want to have to pack it up and send it to Texas for repair?


query: What is the dimension whem is packed?

pos: 12X13X34, it comes in its own roll along bag which is very nice and handy. The tent went into the bag very easily, I was totally stunned! GREAT TENT!! You won't be sorry.


query: Anyone have a recent purchase of Transformation cream notice the cream color has changed to yellow? Concerned I may have been duped by seller.

pos: Hi Gina, I babe been using Jan Marini transformation cream for over a year now and mine never changed color to yellow. Just wondering, when u started using the product, when did u noticed the color change? Did u check the expiration date at the bottom? I hope my answer helped a bit.

pos: I have never had one delivered to me that way but I will notice that once over time the lotion on the sides will get slightly tinted yellow. I would ask them to send you a new one. Maybe the seal wasn't that tight.


query: How long is the chef's knife??

pos: The knife is 10 inches including the handle. The blade itself is 5 1/2 inches. These knives are awesome, great & wonderful. I would suggest to get the Black handles. The silver handles gets discolored when put in the dishwasher. The black are the best.

pos: There is not what I would call a chef's knife in this collection. But it is a nice selection and the knives are very sharp and hold up well.


query: Is this cable 1.4 HDMI or 1.3 HDMI? You are claiming 1.4 features but reviewers are commenting that this is a 1.3 cable.

pos: I would go with what is advertised by the vendor and not what (I am talking about myself here) an uneducated buyer says. I have a new Sony Bravia 48" TV and it's in my bedroom. I have it connected to my PC that is at the other end of my home. it works flawlessly.


query: Will this converter work with a DVD player HDMI output and a VGA input capable monitor? Thanks.

pos: I'm not sure, but I think so. Mine worked this way: HDMI output from my computer to VGA input on a projector.So, give a try. You can always ship it back. I found it an excellent product for the price.

pos: I bought it to connect my Samsung note 2 dock that has hdmi interface to the monitor but it didn't work for me.


query: Will this work for Teak?

pos: Richard, the bottle doesn't specifically mention teak but I wouldn't think it would cause any harmit is made of mineral oil, beeswax and carnauba wax and is safe for food contact. Have you tried contacting the manufacturer? they have a website www.howardproducts.com

pos: It doesn't mention using on Teak in the description. The ingredient list is food grade mineral oil stabilized with vitamin E, beeswax and carnauba wax! Hope this helps!

pos: I have a Proteak Teak Cutting Board Rectangle 16-by-12-by-2-Inch with Juice Canal, End Grain that I use this conditioner on, and it works great! It really enhances the contrast between the light and dark colors. I recommend it!

pos: Yes, all woods. People mainly use this particular grade because they use the surfaces for food prep and need the finish to be nontoxic. Of course, if you have a nonpermeable finish on your wood then this would not be what you are looking for.
