BRIO LS-2100 Review




This is a small compact battery backup charger. It is very light weight and fits easily into the palm of your hand. It is another product offered by Sentey that is nice to have around in times of power outages so you can continue being connected when there is no where to charge so you can stay connected.


This unit is not one of the faster backup chargers on the market only allowing 1A max output, but it does get the job done. Next the unit takes a very long time to charge. That is probably the only thing I find I do not like about this unit. The compact size, although not designed for uses other then a backup is perfect for offering as a fist pack if in a dire situation.


Upon ordering the Brio LX-2100 you get the unit, a small instructions manual, the charging cord, and a very nice carrying bag for it. The instructions manual is very short, but there are not hidden secrets with this unit so it is straight forward and to the point. Next the charging cord is about 6 inches long and a very bright white color which makes it super handy in low lit areas to get it plugged in. The carrying case feels silk like to the touch with a drawstring at the top. The case offers enough room to hold both of my backup chargers and their attachment cords.


The LS-2100 has a 1A Output and 2800mAh battery capacity can charge more than one full extra battery life for your iPhone 6, 5s, 5c, and most other smaller smartphones or devices like Bluetooth speaker, GPS, MP3/MP4 player, and Camera.

Gaming Mouse Pad PVC Sentey® Kairos PRO Review




I am very impressed with this mouse pad. I didn't think much about a mouse pad ever being so important to gaming. I have now found out how foolish I was in thinking this. This PVC covered mouse pad has really improved my game play. It allows the mouse to move so much easier. It has a much faster reaction to the movements. I can cover the whole 22" screen in about 2 inches of movement with this mouse pad. Another great feature is that it fits in between my laptop screen and keyboard so I can take it with me on the go. It sets fully inside the screen recess so it doesn't put any pressure on the hinges either.

I used to think that a piece of paper was more then enough to use for an optical mouse. Since starting to use this my hand and forearm are not tired on one of those long game grinding sessions, because there is a lot less actions needed to get the same response. I would like to thank Sentey and affiliates for sending me this mouse pad to try out and leave my opinion.

B-trek S2 - Sentey® Review




This is a multi-function mini speaker. It is very small about the size of 2 packs of smokes. It weights about half a pound. Mine included a 3.5mm male ends cable, USB charging cable, instructions manual, and the speaker.


The unit is very nice with how it works. On the back side of the unit there is an on/off switch. Then there is a 3.5mm jack, USB charging socket, and an SD card slot. There is a function button on top to toggle between the blue tooth, FM radio, and Aux. This is a great feature. I did notice that if I plug into the 3.5mm jack in the back it automatically switches to Aux. mode. That makes it super easy to hook up to your phone, tablet, or portable DVD player.


Now for the blue tooth part, it is like any other blue tooth device for when it searches and connects. The range of the connection of the blue tooth was around 25 feet. The only thing that I had an issue with was that when it is in blue tooth mode you can not use the speaker to adjust the volume. It had to be done from the device itself. Which was simple enough.


The speaker quality is fair. For the price of eleven dollars it is extrodinary. It has a really good mid and high range on the speakers. The bass leaves some room for improvements. The speaker could handle the volume at about 60%, anything much after that distortion started becoming a factor. I can easily hear the speaker from 15/20 feet at 50% volume. The sound was clear at that range as well.


Charging the device is more then easy enough. I hooked it to my wall charger, USB port on my desktop, and the USB port on my laptop. It plugged in easy and started charging right away. I charged it for 2 hours on first taking it out of the box. When I turned it off 4 hours later it was still going strong.


If you are in the market for an easy to use external speaker this is a great low cost choice for the price. This is even great for small children as a present since it is so easy to use. I would like to thank Sentey and affiliates for sending me this speaker to try out and leave my opinion.

HB30P7 USB 3.0 7-Port Hub Review




This is a remarkable piece of equipment. I have an issue of always running out of USB slots around my house. This really makes that not a factor anymore. It is super simple to hook up, and I have found no errors on the plug and play on the 3 desktops I hooked it to or the laptop. All it requires to get it functioning is plugging in the power cord. Then plugging that into the back of the unit. From there you hook up the USB 3.0 cable to the back of the unit to the USB port on your computer. Then you have 7 USB 3.0 add on ports in less then a minute.


Now for the Tech. stuff of the unit: features VL812 Controller Chipset for full hub optimization. USB 3.0 transfer speeds up to 5Gbps. Built-in Voltage and Current control Unit and Leakage and Short-Circuit protection Unit with All-Solid Capacitor. This unit also comes with an 18 month warranty.


Personally I have this hub hooked up to my desktop and sitting on top of my desk. Currently I have 2 cell phone chargers plugged into it, charging cord for my bluetooth headphones, external hard drive, my USB flexible light, and I also used both of my flash drives in the hub to make sure I was able access them. They both worked flawlessly, one was a sandisk and the other PNY flash drives. There was never any loss or shutting down with any work load I put it through.


If you are like me when it comes to USB ports, unplug this to plug this in, and wait for that to get done to unplug that to hook up the next thing. This is a great way to make it so much easier. I really do recommend this hub if you are in the market for being able to expand simply and effectively. I would like to thank Gurin and affiliates for sending me this Hub to try out and leave my opinion.

Uqique Mini Voice Recorder Review





This is pretty cool device. First off it is super small for what it can do. It is not really any bigger then a standard flash drive. The unit comes with a USB charging cord, and a set of ear buds. The unit USB adaptor worked for charging the unit from my laptop, desktop, and wall charger. The only thing I came across with this unit as a whole that I was not happy with, is the ear buds. They only send you one size rubber tips and they are the large and I do not have large ear canals so they are  a little painful. The ear buds are not the best quality for music but work great listening to people talking.


The unit works very easy and simple to use. When you plug it into the charger there is a small LED light that flashes between red and blue showing that it is charging. Once charging is complete the LED light is solid blue. This thing is very fast at charging as well. Once out of the box and plugged it in to my laptop it only took about 20 minutes.  Next to do the recording there is an on/off button. Shift it to the on position with out the ear buds in and it starts recording. I used it for recording my nephew when he didn't know about it for 2 hours. There was never any lose in the quality of the recordings at any time. Now for the play back on these recordings it is super simple as well. Plug in your ear buds and turn it to the on position. This starts the play back of your recordings. If you have more then one recording or using it as a music source, there are plus and minus buttons on the bottom to switch tracks.


The uses of this mini recorder are only limited by your own imagination. Say for instance you want to see what is happening while you are at work around the house. It is so small and discreet that it can be placed almost anywhere. It also picks up what is going on from a fairly good distance, my guess is about 30 feet or so it is still pretty clear. It can be used for lectures at college to make sure you have all the details correct for study time.  It can be used as a regular flash drive to transfer data. It can be used for a music player. This recorder could even be used at work, put it where the co-workers typically have the idle chit chat in a hidden area and see if they are talking about you in a good of bad way. I could see where this could be very useful in law enforcement, being able to record everything that is happening during an encounter and being able to use it to wright reports at the end of the night. Since it is very small and extremely light weight, not to mention how easy it is to turn it on and off makes it a useful tool for almost anyone.


So if you are in the market for a really good quality recording device. If you want a way to track what is happening in your surroundings with out anyone knowing you are getting this information. This is a great unit to start with since it is so compact and easy to use. I would like to thank Uqique and affiliates for sending me this recorder to try out and leave my opinion.
