Skylink 4B-434 Four-Button Remote Review

Skylink 4B-434 Four-Button Remote
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this with my Skylink System about 7 months ago and it has worked without any problem so far. It is handy that you can arm, disarm and activate panic alarm with a push of the button. Although, I would recommend that you do not disarm the system until you have entered the house. That way if you hear the 15 second count down you know that no one is in your house (most likely).

Calculated Industries KitchenCalc 8300 Recipe Calculator with Digital Timer Review

Calculated Industries KitchenCalc 8300 Recipe Calculator with Digital Timer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I publish Epicurus.com, one of the leading food and travel sites with more than 10,000 recipes. In an average week, I go through more than 200 hundred recipes developing them for our site or our clients. As a restaurant consultant, I scale recipes for clients every day. This calculator has made my life simpler and given me less angst over miscalculated formulae. The device is as simple to use as a normal calculator, but so much better.
No home cook... indeed no professional chef, should be without one of these devices. I've come to depend on it for accuracy, speed and efficiency.
They're far more accurate than the recipe software I've used, easier to work with and far more efficient as I can take this right to the kitchen workstation with me. It fits in my pocket and works like a dream.
An absolute must if you get recipes from cookbooks. Simply wonderful.

In addition to these useful functions this little dynamo also works as a timer and a measurement converter. See, good things do indeed come in small packages!

Intermatic TB121C Digital Tabletop Lamp and Appliance Timer Review

Intermatic TB121C Digital Tabletop Lamp and Appliance Timer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Intermatic TB121C digital tabletop timer has worked well as an enhancement to my alarm clock. My original intent for purchasing this timer was to turn on a full-spectrum light five minutes before my clock sounds my morning alarm. After having negative experiences with other wall-timers, I have been very happy with this timer's capabilities and reliability.
Unlike wall timers where you must get on your hands and knees to adjust them, the Intermatic allows adjustments while seated upright or even lying in bed, far away from the rats' nest of extension cords. The easy access allows for rapid confirmation of the settings as well.
There is only problem with the timer I have seen thus far. When you drop it, even a few inches, it closes the circuit momentarily. This pulse is very bad for certain electrical devices, such as my $400 full spectrum light box. Also, it is not designed for large inductive loads such as air conditioners. On the timer, the inductive load is only listed at 300 watts versus 1000 watts for a resistive load (i.e. light/electric heater).
A relatively simple device, the Intermatic TB121C does its job. I would be skittish in purchasing one, however, if there is any danger from a momentary closed circuit, which would turn on the intended light or appliance.
Pros
Visibility
Simplicity
Dual on/off settings
Cons
Inductive load limitation - 300 watts
No ground plug
Momentary closed circuit when dropped only a few inches

LaserShield CYC-0012301 Cyclone GSM Cellular Adapter for LaserShield Burglar Alarm System Review

LaserShield CYC-0012301 Cyclone GSM Cellular Adapter for LaserShield Burglar Alarm System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Laser Shield doesn't tell you that the only way you can get this machine to call out is though their service at around $25.00 per month.
The motion sensors are poor quality in that I can walk about 15' into the room before they activate.
The siren is not close to being loud you can't even hear it outside of the room.
It is hassle to arm the machine in that you have wait for the machine to go though a lot of verbiage before you can arm it.
In less than 2 months it is already malfunctioning.
The positive reviews must come from very easy to please people or they are shills.
Do not buy this machine.

DEWALT DCT414S1 12-Volt Max Infrared Thermometer Kit Review

DEWALT DCT414S1 12-Volt Max Infrared Thermometer Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This Infrared Thermometer kit is a great tool for finding trouble spots and variations in temperatures.
It comes with a case, 12-Volt rechargeable battery and the charging base. It charged in a very short time, just over an hour. The battery clips on securely and the unit has a great feel. It is an easy weight for holding, comfortable in your hands with a rubberized grip and display cover. The LED display is a bright and easy to read green. It feels fairly durable because of the rubberized case that is not only around the outside edges of the unit but also around the display screen which leads me to think it would hold up under a normal fall.
The unit turns on when depressing the trigger and shuts off automatically after a couple of seconds.
Controls include:
* Fahrenheit/Celsius conversion
* Minimum, maximum, and average recordings
* Temperature readings to one decimal point
* Alarm if the reading is above or below the set high and low temp limits. The alarm can be audible or visible (red and blue indicator lights) or both.
* Hold and scan while temperature variations are read. This allows for you to find variations and hot or cold spots as well as areas that exceed the preset high or low limits.
* Emissivity adjustments in .01 increments to adjust for different materials.
* 12:1 distance to spot ratio, which means that for every 12" away from the object it will measure 1" of area.
* Optional belt hook attachment
The laser light traveled from one side of our house to the other (38') without any problem but the reading covers a much larger area. We were able to pinpoint specific household areas of heat loss around wall/floor edges, door frames, return vents and a floating floor on an addition. We can now look for ways to better insulate these area to cut down on some heat/AC losses. It was great to see that our new energy saving windows were actually doing their job.
I have to admit that I'm not a contractor but I am a homeowner always looking to save money on heat or A/C loss.
A very nice unit with a lot of features for the small contractor or homeowner.
