Reviews
"What more can be said about a can of compressed air?"
"It's compressed air in a can, kinda hard to screw up :) But I do get multiple uses from a single can cleaning my keyboards and laptops so I'm happy with the quantity of air per can."
"This is a must in any setting where dust can harm your electronics or machines."
"Air in a can, compressed."
"Saw these for sale at Walmart and Staples recently at quite a bit more per can than what Amazon is charging for 4."
"Canned air."
"Took me a while to dig it out of player.Did clean up older vcr that had been sitting."
"It's almost impossible to hold the top on and keep it aligned with the gas valve to use the duster."

Reviews
"I usually shy away from "kits" like this but I figured I'd give this one a shot. Sure it includes stuff I'll never ever use, like a static wrist strap, but at this price I still feel like I got a deal. It's helped me through various odd jobs around the house and three computer builds - I like that there's extra space in the plastic storage containers for more screws. Pair this with a magnetic tray and you're set to build a computer without having to rummage through a toolbox for anything else."
"I wish the screwdriver nut for adjusting the angle of the bit was either more secure or not there."
"The only stuff i really ended up using though were the wrist band, the zip ties, the wire cutters (to cut the ties), ocasionally a phillips head bit on the fat screwdriver, and some of the skinny screwdrivers."
"I primarily work on guitar electronics but also work on any other electronics issues around the house, including computer issues."
"I bought the RTK-146 toolkit in December 2013 for $39.99, and I still have (most of) it today. This was especially unfortunate because it was the inclusion of the soldering iron which convinced me to choose this particular toolkit, as I didn't really want top buy a separate soldering iron for simple rewiring projects."
"The soldering iron worked well, the driver and bits are strong enough that I've used them on a motorcycle, the hand tools can handle carry their weight and more."
"Since it was impossible for me to find an exact list of the products here you go: Screw driver handle with various bits. soldering iron. needle nose pliers. wire cutter. small screw driver and bits (in the blue case). Wide tongs. narrow nosed tongs. Allen Key set. Long narrow screw driver. razor knife. Cable Cutter/crimper. various hex socket wrench bits. grabber tool. dusting brush. and last but not least the most worthless flashlight you will ever see."
"Great group of tools for the computer build."

"Blows out extra dust from my Dyson portable and my iRobot...filters, inside of dustbin, inside machine."
"A pretty​ basic product that does the job, I bought it because my 12" MacBook has keys that tend to get stuck with minor dirt."
"It worked well and had a lot of pressure."
"You want great spray with a lot of power, this size can works GREAT!"
"Trigger is very flimsy plastic and if you're not careful, you'll bend it in a way that causes less power."
"Consistently the lowest price on Amazon, and I've never gotten a dud can, unlike some other brands."
"I'm giving this 3 stars solely in the hopes that it will save a 3-star reader the trouble of ordering this piece of junk."
"On arrival, one can was empty."

Reviews
"Unlike expensive air cans which become cold and loose their power after a few minutes of use, the Electric Duster blows hard as long as you need it to. Some of the cons to using this instead of a vacuum is the fact you will need to take the PC outside to blow it out otherwise dust will go everywhere (you will not believe how much dust comes out of some of them, easily 10 times more than a normal compressed air can would blow out). A vacuum will do a good job at cleaning the PC, but the force of the air stream from the Electric Duster is very powerful and reaches cracks and crevasses to blow out dust in places I didn't even knew existed! Versus compressed air, aside from the massive savings, you also have no problem turning the Electric Duster upside down or at any angle to position it - compressed air cans will blow ice out if you turn them upside down. Finally, the Electric Duster is environmentally friendly compared to compressed air cans or even Vacuums which you have to throw away the bags etc. While the Electric Duster is a bit pricey for people who only need an air can every now and then, for those of you who buy a lot of compressed air, or need something a lot stronger, this is a must have replacement. IMPORTANT NOTE: There is another listing for this product on Amazon: Metro Vacuum ED500P DataVac 500-Watt, .75-HP Electric Duster. As for comments about spinning fans to fast... To this day I have never damaged a fan, use common sense and don't spin the fan too fast or for a long time, or hold it with a plastic object (a plastic ink pen with the ink pulled out), and if you are blowing air through a fan be sure to blow it in the direction the air would normally flow through the fan so you don't shoot dust into the fan bearings etc."
"Rock solid construction that has a good heft in the hand, nice long shop-worthy power cord (~11ft), and the air output is just ridiculous with the bigger nozzles it comes with."
"This was recommended by a friend of mine, who would let me borrow theirs from time to time. The product was shipped in its own retail box!"
"I used to purchase the canned air to clean out the electronics/devices, but you can only use them for a short amount of time before the can freezes up and it's useless. It's very powerful to clean all of my devices."
"You need to keep your computers free of dust, and DataVac does the job very well, even much better than the canned air you have to fork out $7 a can for. This pays for itself very quickly."
"If you have used many cans of air you know you must use short bursts of air with this you can blow with the same force for as long as you need it."

Reviews
"As a computer technician here are my thoughts: First , the kind of dust you find in a computer cannot be easily vacuumed up by any vacuum cleaner (except for dust bunnies). I would say the blower is probably more powerful than a can of air but maybe not as powerful as the ED-500 although I don't know for sure because I've never tried the ED-500. I blew out a computer I thought was pretty clean and I got the same "clouds" of dust out of it (don't do this indoors). One thing I wanted to mention: I see a lot of videos where people blow out power supplies CPU fans, etc. What happens is the air is strong enough to over-rev the bearings in the fan and it will lead to premature failure of the fan or even immediate failure (i.e. your fan will start making strange noises right after you are done cleaning it) The proper way to clean a cpu fan, power supply fan, or anything else with a fan is to stick a plastic zip-tie, straw, or any other straight piece of plastic in the blades to block them from spinning while you blow the fan clean."
"Ok, well I think the blowing function is a bit stronger than it's vacuuming ability, but I mostly use the vacuum for my car's floor mats and tight places in my bathroom floor & bedroom...not as my main vac. I also blew out the brushes and bottom intake and it made my upright vacuum work like brand new again!This was so much easier than trying to shake the thing vigorously and ram broomsticks throught the hoses in order to clean my upright vacuum out. Covering the pinhole increases blowing & suction speed/force, but builds up the heat in the unit."
"Very strong suction used it to clean my entire computer tower."
"I can not hold my keyboard in one hand and use blower; when I try, because of the short stiff hose and light weight of unit."

"When you have a mix of regular usb and type c devices used in the home this is the perfect product to meet everyone's needs."

Best Computer Printer Ink & Toner

Brother Genuine TN450 High Yield Mono Laser Toner Cartridge
Product Packaging: Standard Packaging. Brother offers an environmentally responsible way for customers to dispose of Brother Genuine cartridges.
Reviews
"Starter cartridge finally says it's run completely out (though it still seems to print). In addition to the 7-times-Go (described below), there's a 3-times-Go that will print a three page report showing everything you ever wanted to know about your printer, including the amount of toner actually left. Understanding this, the way they do it makes sense: really early warning that you should order another cartridge - and a lockout that you can't ignore, keeping you from having a really bad day in the future."
"My history with the HL-2270DW and the TN-450 cartridges: Starter Cartridge - 751 pages, changed 12/27/2011. 2nd Cartridge - 1,999 pages (total printer count 2,750) Changed 03/29/2012. 3rd Cartridge - 2,559 pages (total printer count 5,309) Changed 07/24/2012. 4th Cartridge - 2,627 pages (total printer count 7,936) Changed 11/19/2012. 5th Cartridge - did not record. 6th Cartridge - Approx."
"Here's how to tell if yours is genuine: 1) confirm the box looks like the one shown in photo 2) check that the packing tape is not tampered with 3) on the outside of the box, look for a security hologram sticker with a QR code on it (about the size of a postage stamp) 4) use a QR code reader app on your smart phone which will display a Brother web page that confirms the cartridge is genuine -- the web page also gives tips on how to confirm that the security hologram is genuine. 2) Be sure to follow the step where you slide the little green button back and forth several times to clean the drum -- ALSO when you are finished sliding the green button, return it all the way back to the "home" position until it CLICKS into place."
"I started out using ink jet printers like most everyone else.And like everyone else, I spent a fortune on ink jet cartridges. I had been using laser printers at work but thought they were to expensive for my needs."
"Then the ink coverage across the pages is now so bad... leaving huge areas of print too light to read... that we will need to discard the cartridge."
"After installation of the new cartridge, verified that the printer prints perfectly well and the problem was with the cartridge I bought from Amazon."

"I have run out of power in airports, meetings, my car only to find my cable will not charge my iPhone. So I bought 10 and gave them to my kids, replaced all of the cables in my cars, house, bags."
"8/7/2017 New update: after using it for more than 6 months (use it 5 days per week in office), the cable is still in good condition and still look like new. I have confident about this product because (Base on my pervious purchased syncwire product experiences): (1) High quality Material: strong enough to protect the cables and prevent broken. (2) Good after sell service: even the cable is broken, their life time warranty would able to replace another one for u."
"Sticking with products that are certified by those guidelines will insure the quality of the products and in return lengthen the life of your phone or tablet battery as well."
"After going through wire after wire that would last anywhere from 1-4 months and costing $6-$12, it was time for me to invest in a good quality wire that was going to last me. The best part is that I contacted them about a replacement, and all they had me do was send a picture of the ruined wire, confirm my address, and I received a new wire in the mail(took about 8 days.)."
"This one looked good, shipping was fast, price was right and I'd definitely buy again if I ever needed to."
"I am very happy with my Syncwire cable."
"Nice well constructed equal to if not better (I think) than the original cable that came with my phone."
"I need a smooth cable, but if your ok with a metal roughness feel, go for it."

Reviews
"All of my devices are much faster now... PS4, iPhones, iPads, Epson Printer, Baby Monitor, Tablets, Roku 3 box, Roku Streaming Stick, etc... 2) Cables .... Please note, one other thing I did in addition to getting this router is that I also bought all new cat6 cables (from Amazon Basics), and that has helped the router to connect well to the cable modem. In all conditions, wired with Cat6 cables and/or wi-fi, this Nighthawk router has delivered the speeds I was missing for years. One thing to keep in mind is that some older devices can only use 2.4g so it is that old device itself that limits the connection speed (not your wi-fi necessarily)."
"In extremely rudimentary, lay terms, the Nighthawk has the strength of three routers. It can handle three times the number of connections a single-band router ever could (presumably), yet all the devices are able to "see" one another and play nice together. *. Our friends make fun of us because we have totally embraced the concept of the "Internet of Things." Besides the usual gadgets (iPads, phones, game consoles), we use a Nest thermostat, a Nest Cam, Philips Hue bulbs, an Amazon Echo on our kitchen countertop, and a Sonos. But by far the biggest hassle has been the simple fact that our trusty old Linksys router just could not handle the workload. When you have this many gadgets and gizmos connected to the 'net, it's pretty easy to bring the whole home infrastructure down. After a couple years of frustration, my husband and I agreed to go with a beefier router. About a jillion of my friends (all of whom work in tech) endorsed the Netgear Nighthawk without reservation. Sitting here, I just ran a speed test, and on my wireless connection I'm getting 58.37 Mbps download speeds—not too shabby, considering we pay for 50."
"I have been using a cable company provided router/modem combo for years. I hooked this router to SB6183 SURFboard modem and for the first few hours everything went as expected. I did a soft reset on the router, rebooted the PC, tried another 2.4 GHZ device in the same location, but nothing fixed except a hard reset of the router by unplugging and re plugging. If you are thinking of purchasing this, please do an internet search for R7500v2 dropping wireless or R7500v2 losing wireless."

"To make it 10x more ergonomic, place a wedge with a 30 degree incline under it to make it the most natural wrist angle and keep you from resting any weight on the nerves in your wrist."
"I would highly recommend this product especially with a padded rest and angled stand like the one I made."
"It connects just fine and works on several different surfaces without difficulty (it uses Microsoft's Bluetrack technology for better tracking). If you don't make this change the mouse is almost useless because if it sits idle for a few minutes, windows will turn off Bluetooth and - no more mouse. I have medium sized hands, and a smaller mouse feels a little more comfortable to me, but this too, is simple what I'm used to. Anyway, those of you that are reluctant to use this mouse due to the connection problems, there is a simple fix, and once that's done the mouse works great with no disconnect problems."
"Pros: - Internal battery. - 6 programable buttons. - Works on glass. - Ergonomic shape. - Bluetooth/Unifying receiver. Cons. - Scroll wheel. - Loud. - Matte texture. The things that I don't like about this mouse are mostly trivial but they're things I'm not a big fan of."
"There's no mention anywhere of the 6th mouse button under the thumb rest, I only found it because rubber molding pops up a little for it and I tried to push the molding back down only to hear a click. The 4th and 5th buttons are utterly useless due to their size and placement so far back on the mouse."

"This weekend I drilled a hole in the top portion of the desk and attached the mount using the 4” grommet. When I ordered the mount, I didn’t realize that the 4” grommet would work for passing it through a desk with a hole in it. It has allowed me to have the left monitor arm fully extended and then the right one it adjusted to be next to it. My opinions are solely mine and are NOT influenced by anything other than the QUALITY and PERFORMANCE of this particular product."
"The clamp and pole are quite a bit heavier than you'd imagine looking at the picture. I opened this late at night after the kids were asleep excited to get everything mounted, only to find the bolt that clamps the arms onto the pole wasn't included. Unfortunately, because I opened it so late, there was nothing I could do and had to let everything sit in a pile until the next morning when I could run to the hardware store to get a bolt."
"But, the top shelf of the standing desk was holding my monitors, and that space was completely wasted. I bought this mount, hesitant and the monitors belong to my company and I didn't want to risk them on something that might fail."
"My desk is not a big computer desk and I used the attachment to mount it on the table (not through the table). Also easy to put your monitors on it."
"I own two 24" monitors and although the arms, pole and desk mount work about as I would expect, the rotation design is pretty bad. If a speck of dust hits the top part on the left or right side of one of the monitors, or your cat's tail brushes the monitor, the entire monitor begins to rotate (see provided picture)."

"You need to follow it through until the entire staple closes with a second click, and then you'll get a perfect staple every time. I have a feeling people who get jammed staples is because they didn't staple all the way through, like mentioned above.

"The old one was softer touch but jammed; this is softer touch than traditional staplers."
"And the neatest part is they staple flat as opposed to humped on the back side. Swingline Stapler, Optima 40, Compact, Low Force, 40 Sheets, Black/Silver (S7087842)."
"This is the best stapler I ever used."
"This stapler is one of the easiest staplers to use I have ever encountered."
"Every day when I showed up to work in the afternoon I'd have to play scavenger hunt in order to find it."
"I can't believe I am reviewing a stapler but here I go... My husband asked me to get him one and I just picked the first one I found that matched his oddly specific criteria."
"I can't test anything over 25-sheets with the staples I bought because the staples have a stated capacity of 25 sheets. UPDATE 10/10/2016: This actually works on 47 sheets even with the Optima staples, which claims 25 sheets capacity (Swingline Staples, Optima Premium, 0.25 Inch Leg Length, 210 per Strip, 3,750 Staples per Box (S7035556))."

"These are the BEST headphones I've tested (and I've tested a lot) when it comes to latency--that is there's no delay when viewing a video on my iPhone and the audio that's playing."
"No headphone has ever covered my ears without hard places or sweaty or too tight. Pairs easily with my moto G 4 phone and also a BT transmitter connected to my Chrome TV dongle. Ear cups are flat enough to lay head on pillow to watch TV. We'll see how they hold up to long daily use. Update 9/30/2017 I wear these for several hours each day."
"Update 04/06/2017: Customer service did pretty good job and fast, by contacting me about the issue I had."

"2) The mouse goes into power save/sleep mode after 8 minutes or so of inactivity. The mouse feels very sturdy and well designed in your hand. (it is, however significantly shorter than my fav mouse the Logitech G300 (Check pic). If you are on a tight budget and want a sturdy mouse, go ahead and buy this."
"As a college student who uses the internet for leisure and study purposes as well as basic Microsoft Office functions, I would classify myself as an average computer user. The primary reasons for purchasing this mouse was due to the numerous positive reviews on Amazon, as well as the price of $11.99. I have also found it quite durable as the mouse has been knocked off my desk a few times and shown almost no sign of damage, except for a small scuff on the lower right side. One feature that I have found useful for saving battery life is that the mouse turns off automatically after eight minutes of non-use. It is available for a good price, the build quality is superb, it is extremely comfortable to use, and it is very easy to utilize all of the mouse’s functions."
"?”, I always suggest that anyone buying a laptop at least get a wireless mouse. For a wireless mouse I look for the following: • Use on any surface laser. • Skids that slide well with ease on multiple surfaces. • Long term battery life. • Small USB receiver. • Comfort and size. • And above all else PRICE. The VicTsing MM057 checks off all of my criteria and more! I like to carry my laptop around with me throughout the day and the MM057 worked on every surface I put it on which allowed me to be truly mobile and move about how I wanted without having to carry around a mouse pad and worry about a flat surface, the MM057 will work on your jeans just fine if you are so inclined. There is convenient storage for the Micro USB receiver on the bottom of the mouse, so if you choose to unplug the receiver there is a safe place to store it so it does not get lost."

Reviews
"I don't use SD or MicroSD cards much any more like I did in college, but when my girlfriend's Android freaked out and corrupted her entire Micro SD card (I think that's what it was), I told her to let me borrow it. Using this card reader, I was able to plug her Micro SD into my computer, and, with the card still in the reader, ran a data recovery program that rebuilt all her photos that weren't corrupted. Like I said, I don't use card readers very often any more, but this is one of those things that I feel like everyone should have in case of an emergency, like needing to download photos after a digital camera's computer cable is lost, or when you need to get files off an Android."
"Very nice card reader."
"Great idea."
"I bought this based off other good reviews, being as I wouldn't have normally picked it out myself because it seemed too cheap to be good."
"This is a small USB device that will accept both an SD card and a Micro SD card without an adapter."
"Purchased in tandem with a PNY card for my wife's new camera, works just as you'd expect for data transfer."
"The side SD ports cause the SD card to interfere with the USB port next to it."

Best Computer Uninterruptible Power Supply Units

APC Back-UPS Pro 1500VA UPS Battery Backup & Surge Protector (BR1500G)
Size: 1500VA. 1500VA / 865W Battery Backup Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
Reviews
"I am happy with the amount of battery in the expansion pack - this truly is 4x more packs for tripling the 2 in the base unit."
"Contacted APC (Schneider Electric) support regarding the bullet point "APFC compatibility" above here on the Amazon product page, and their response was: "we are not advertising APFC from our product specs", "we cannot control [what online resellers say]", and "recommended instead to consider a pure sinewave SmartUPS"."
"This battery pack contains four 12v 9ah batteries. This battery pack is not made so that the batteries can be easily replaced by the user like the main UPS unit that it connects too. They could have designed it so that the batteries slid out for easy replacement like they do on the master UPS unit. Remove batteries. Which is exactly as expected since the BR1500G contains two batteries and the external battery pack contain four additional batteries. This external battery pack contained 4 CSB HR 1234W F2 batteries 12V 9ah 34W. Also, I'm really curious to know if the BR1500G is able to inform the user when the external battery needs replacement or if it just gives a general replace battery message for all batteries."
"That's NOT good at all as I had 2 servers and a desktop plugged into it and it kept happening, Google'd the issue and found many others complaining about the same with Cyberpower."
"You remove this battery, follow the directions, rotate it 180 degrees, push it back in the compartment and the internal contacts come together easily."
"It's already saved me 5 times since I've ordered it last month and offers 30 minutes on a light load."
"We added a security system to our home but were concerned about the drop in power if we had an outage and when the auto generator kicked in."
"I have a home theater PC, several other pieces of AV gear and a large monitor (aka TV) as part of my home theater system."

Protect your devices from power surges with the Belkin 12-Plug Power Strip Surge Protector. 12-plug power strip with 8-foot cord, ideal for home or office use.
Reviews
"It is plenty large and spacious enough to accommodate my plethora of cords and voltage adapter cubes for the various items on my computer desk."
"I moved from an old 2900joule APC up to one of these for my desk area and then grabbed another for my entertainment area and have the old 11 outlet APC serving the house entertainment area."
"The only other problem I have is that the flat plug that goes to the wall is designed to hang on a normal wall outlet, but every last one of the outlets in this apartment complex is installed upside down, leading to it being more awkward than a standard plug would have been."
"I'm not a huge review writer, but this product and the support provided by Belkin warrants some comments. The product failed within the first 30 days while being hooked up to my computer and a TV. No fuses tripped within my home... something apparently just shorted out inside the unit. They have a process similar to Amazon which allows them to ship you the new product, then you return the defective one to them once the new one is received. This is obviously a huge part of the equation for a $25.00 product and I assume it will be covered eventually once they provide some actual dollar figures about what I will be charged if I don't return the bad one. So I contact CitiBank (my credit card) to notify them of a probable dispute at this point... and they tell me the actual charge was $80.30. Anyway, short version: product failed twice (which to me warrants the one star review alone), Belkin customer service then provides the trifecta of failure. Five days later I received a response that appeared to be written by an actual person (versus an automated reply) that stated. "Thank you for contacting Belkin Technical Support. Please call our customer support department during business hours". So that was great. I never received anything and tracking shows it was returned to their docks almost a month ago, yet they charge me."
"Disappointed that this offers little to no protection...only plus is 8 outlets on a switch."
"It caught on fire and burned my carpet, but it didn't burn the whole house down since I was sitting right next to it."
"The real news: none of Belkin's products, or other similar surge protectors, can protect electronic equipment during a catastrophic surge, such as that caused by a close lightning strike. Such a protector, properly connected by an electrician, will dissipate 85-90% of the initial surge from a lightning strike, and allow a Belkin-type protector, if good enough, to do its intended job. And now, the kicker: they reserve the right to have you mail them all of the equipment you are claiming is damaged--at YOUR expense and with ABSOLUTELY NO GUARANTEE that either you'll get it back or that they'll give you one red cent even after they receive your damaged equipment. And if they do deny your claim after all of this, your only resort is to sue them, and the amount of damages claimed may exceed the limits for small claims court in your state (meaning you'll have to hire a lawyer--have you priced one lately?). First, get yourself a whole-house surge protector, and then, protect all of your electronic equipment (including appliances) with appropriately scaled surge protectors from Monoprice."

"Occasional bad ones but, unlike other brands I have used, extremely rare."
"so far ...great quality!"
"The problem was it was a new PC so I spent 3 hours with HP support before I figured out it was this batch of CDs. I was within hours of returning this PC to Costco when I ran to Best B** and bought another spindle (of these) and I burned them just fine."

TaoTronics TT-DL02 4 Lighting Mode 5-Level Dimmable Led Desk Lamp, 5V/1A USB Charging Port, Piano White
TaoTronics Elune TT-DL02(White) is the new generation energy-saving and eco-friendly LED desk lamp.This is the ideal lighting source for office, home, dorm, etc. The TaoTronics Advantage: Join the 5 million+ powered by Amazon's #1 led desk lamp brand.
Reviews
"How I chose this lamp: - I purchased this lamp after swimming through reviews on just over 15 other similar LED lamps. Most of the lamps I considered were TaoTronics as they tend to have a very strong following with many positive reviews, not to mention they have been praised as some of the brightest LED desk lamps you can find for under $50.00. I previously had a small LED desk lamp and a tall fluorescent halo lamp that I could use overhead and move around as needed. A long array with a nice, even light output would provide for a better area of coverage than my previous lamps, which this TaoTronics lamp promised to provide. I use all three lamps to provide as much light as possible, however, it is still very obvious how much brighter the desk area is with the TaoTronics lamp on. The light from this lamp outshines my previous lamps as opposed to simply being washed out like dim headlights under street lamps. The LED array on this lamp is too bright to look at, but when looking at the lamp from any angle other than right up into the array, it does not bother my eyes at all. It provides a nice soft light you can use as a nightlight or an absolutely bright daylight lamp for a desk, work area, reading, ect."
"This Elune lamp will work well as a craft lamp on the "study" setting at highest output. When the dedicated craft lamps die I'll be replacing them with these, but not before I add another as a bedside reading lamp. What I see is a slight, but noticeable, lack of yellow in the Elune which is the same difference between the fluorescent and LED craft lamps - in other words, it's not the Elune but just LED spectrum in general."
"Fantastic light integrating high efficiency led technology!"
"The Base is Nice thin but is heavey like a lg paperweight and non skid bottom, Slim design all around open and close lamp head only bought 2"wide Has a 60mm button, power on/off at the bottom then a sleep button, relax button, study button, reading button and you can adjust the brightness either up or down button. I had enclosed several pictures showing different settings and it is just this light that is on."
