Sleek and thin
Pros: Wow, i would have never thought that the ipad is this amazing, without this keyboard, I have always thought it was only for minor gaming and facebook. You can easily chance the volume, sound, brightness, skip songs, and there is even a home button on the top left!
Cons: The top right is the key to make the ipad go to sleep, so every once in a while, i would accidently make my ipad go to sleep. The arrow keys do not work, I think this is a universal problem, I am not sure, but it would be a great experience if i do not have to rely on taping my screen to scroll down.
Overall Review: At first, I thought that you only needed one aaa battery, but you actually need two, so its fine. I can type around 50 words on this, which is not too far off from my computer, if you are going to do blazing fast 200 wpm on this thin keyboard, then you should consider a full size keyboard, but for lite notes or a student, this is a fine keyboard I am typing this on the ipad right now and this product was sent to review for me and I made it my best to be un biased.
TripMate
Pros: great battery Can be charging my phone during bridge mode
Cons: ipad app lags, does not play media no download for windows
Overall Review: This is a review for the Hootoo Mate Elite, that I was given to review. First thought, since I love portable electronics, this was going to be on of the most amazing devices created. The first thing I did was connect it to view some files on a usb drive. It took a vew tries since the device either was not working, or I was entering the password 11111111 wrong. ( In my opinion, is really annoying) While I use the app for the Ipad 4th gen, I clicked play for the first song on my usb drive, but it would not play, but would go down the list of all my songs, but not play. The Hootoo device is 6 inches away on my lap, and It would lag going down the list of files I had. Syncing in took around 10 seconds, even with my 15 mbps speed down and 5 mbps up. The media feature was a fail in my opinion for the ipad, not playing any picture, mp4, and mp3s, as well as lagging and crashing. Compared to the Toshiba Canvio Wireless Adapter, the Hootoo Tripmate falls behind in comparison I was mainly needing this device to be able to view media on my ipad, since it can not expand data, but it falls short. The Hootoo program for the PC was not found in the hootoo.com/download Moving forward to the android app for the Samsung s3, I decided to plug in my phone on the other open port to see if the device could charge while outputting media from my s3, and it worked great! I played a variety of media, the same compared to the ipad, and they played this time on the andoid, the files took a slight bit longer to load compared to the Toshiba Canvio adapter. One thing they could fix for the TripMate is to add a location where I can pause, without going back to the song. Testing the bridge The speedtest went from my normal ping of 15 to 20, and the bridge made the internet go to 12, from 15.(location- router was between a wall, and the hootoo was next to my computer. By moving the device, between 3 walls, and ~70 feet away, it suffered greatly, at 48-250 ping, ,50mbps-2mbps down and .8mpbs up. random test- my room temperature is around 75 to 77, and using a termo gun, the highest temp is 94*F 34.5*C After over an hour of testing, the indicator was still 4/4. I was mainly needing this device to be able to view The Hootoo TripMate Elite has some minor problems to repair, but is a feature rich device that is the jack of all trades compared to the Toshiba Canvio adapter. One thing I would love to see, is being to connect to both the internet as well as the TripMate.

Zombie Survival Accessory
Pros: unlimited source of energy
Cons: ipad will detect as not charging, but it will
Overall Review: The RavPower 9W solar charger is a great first step into clean and free energy. Currently, on a sunny winter day, at 3pm in texas, it charged my phone an Oneplus one from 80 to 99 in one hour. After that, with the sun getting less effective, at 4pm, in an hour, it charged my Samsung s2 from 62 to 78 in an hour, but it also has a smaller battery. For my ipad 4th gen, i believe the possible fluctuation in power made the ipad come up with an error saying it does not charge correctly, but it does charge fine, it just seems slower since the battery is a monster. If you are a power hungry user, and always need spare power, you can always buy a portable battery, and leave it out charging all day, and come back with free power. If you are preparing for the zombies to come, this would make a great addition to your survival backpack, since you can now always be entertained with 2048, and Candy Crush! or just use your phones led flash for a source of light. The Solar panel would be a great gift to anyone interested in electricity, the environment, or someone who always uses their phone on the go. Compared to other more stationary solar panels, you can bring this anywhere, and is more simple. This product was sent to me for an unbiased review.
Great little charger
Pros: basic
Cons: no real manual
Overall Review: The Charger when I first opened the box was very basic. No real manual, but no problem if you know the littlest about technology. The Dual Port Car Charger came in a very ecofriendly packaging and minimal. It works with most cars, with two dedicated ports, one for tablets, such as ipads, as well as another lower powered for phones. This feels in terms of quality feel pretty generic, compared to other brands. It is a slight finger magnet, but you probably would not notice. Most of the Ravpower accessories I own work great, and customer service has been a breeze. This product was sent to me for an unbiased review.
