    Phone lanyard

    I’ve been using this phone lanyard for about a year now and it’s simplified carrying and using the phone. It has a quick release when I’m at my desk to remove. It’s long enough to tuck under an arm to keep out of the way when needed. It’s only $15 - but I’ve had to order 6 more for friends and...

    Celluar phone photography-boon or bane?

    I love my iPhone 12 Pro Max and camera. The time lapse is nice at night. Day pictures are great and video. My wife was a professional photographer for decades using large format film cameras - Hasablads mostly and she likes it. She shoots better than I do on it, always will. I got a nice...

    Nitecore

    I bought my first light from them, a Tini2, and love the power and being able to get the reading on battery charge status and brightness. I’m going to get their bigger 4K light next since it has same readouts. I wouldn’t worry about the holding up over time.

    $15 Everstart Maxx 5W spotlight from Walmart

    I’ve been happy with the Everstart Maxx 2200 lumen spotlight light from Walmart For $45. I gave one to friends and they love it and use it nightly. Stanley has the same looking light for double the cost on Amazon.

    Wall switch for a ceiling pull cord light fixture

    Update - Had another pull chain light that stopped working so I bought another one of these and again it works great. I was wondering if both lights would work off the same switch, and they don’t but we didn’t want them to do that.

    Wall switch for a ceiling pull cord light fixture

    Good question, and when I read reviews, which were really good, there were some comments about switches pairing with sockets, so it is something to consider. The manufacturer’s web site has information on it. The easiest thing to do is buy one switch with as many sockets as you need in the...

    Wall switch for a ceiling pull cord light fixture

    I upgraded a pull cord light fixture in our basement to a remote control light socket and wall switch by Dewenwils, and it works great and I even removed the pull cord chain. The switch has good range (claims 80 feet) so I can mount it at the top of the stairs and it works through the walls. I...
