Thunderstorm Bluetooth Body Fat Digital Scale

Thunderstorm Bluetooth Body Fat Digital Scale - Measures weight, body water, fat ratio, bone mass, BMI, BMR, visceral fat index, muscle weight and protein rate
Thunderstorm Bluetooth Body Fat Digital Scale - Measures weight, body water, fat ratio, bone mass, BMI, BMR, visceral fat index, muscle weight and protein rate

Pros: It does work provided you do the required setup correctly Very accurate weight and body measurements with bluetooth connection with cell phones. Gives you a lot of different body information that if used correctly will help you a lot health wise.

Cons: It does work provided you do the required setup correctly, that's the issue usually from what I read of other users comments. Without cell phone with bluetooth this thing just is a accurate scale. But, I do wish that the documentation was better and company support which is non existent.

Overall Review: I've had an great experience working with both the scale and its phone app. Whenever I go to my doctors for biometric exam or physical exam, I make sure to have all my info up until that date and give it to the medical personnel because I will NEVER get on their bogues over-weighing scales!!

Off-Lease JUNK

SAMSUNG 740N-B1 Black 17" 8ms   LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 600:1, A Grade – No Back Cosmetic Cover Plate, Off Lease
SAMSUNG 740N-B1 Black 17" 8ms LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 600:1, A Grade – No Back Cosmetic Cover Plate, Off Lease

Pros: None!

Cons: This was mis-represented by Newegg in the product ad that stated it was refurbished. No where did it say off-lease or I wouldn't have wasted my time. Off lease equipment is most always abused and none functional. I only look through such equipment in large lot sales that U pay pennies on the dollar for. On such a lot sale I might get 20 LCD's like this one for $50 - $100 and maybe half will be OK. This Samsung monitor was DOA.

Overall Review: Off-lease is not refurbished!! It is an old used and usually abused monitor.

Bad cpu fan

Intel Core i7-4790K - Core i7 4th Gen Devil's Canyon Quad-Core 4.0 GHz LGA 1150 88W Intel HD Graphics 4600 Desktop Processor - BX80646I74790K
Intel Core i7-4790K - Core i7 4th Gen Devil's Canyon Quad-Core 4.0 GHz LGA 1150 88W Intel HD Graphics 4600 Desktop Processor - BX80646I74790K

Pros: CPU OK

Cons: Fan bad out of box. Don't waste your time installing your cpu with stock fan, it caused me a lot of wasted time.

Overall Review: Just buy a quality fan or water cooler from the start because even if fan is OK I wouldn't trust it with my systems.

Turtle Beach Ear Force XP400

Turtle Beach - Ear Force XP400 Wireless Dolby Surround Sound Gaming Headset, Xbox 360 / PS3
Turtle Beach - Ear Force XP400 Wireless Dolby Surround Sound Gaming Headset, Xbox 360 / PS3

Pros: Comfortable

Cons: Maybe if used for only XBOX or PS3 it might work but as I have neither and only intended to use it on a PC or laptop or paired with my Android cell phone this thing doesn't work. Being a systems engineer and hacker, I usually can get things to work but nothing so far, it might as well be a brick. I tried updating my Windows 8 drivers but nothing. Tried it on other PC's and laptops but nothing.

Overall Review: Does work very well as a brick so I can't even give it anything for that either. I have a Sabrent BT-USBT receiver/adapter but that nor by Android see's anything from these head-phones. I even tried the analog cables with this and also the fiber optics connection but the same nothing. I built my PC's and they are very cutting edge, I just can't say anything for these XP400!

Logitech refurb garbage

Logitech Recertified 920-002555 MK550 Black USB RF Wireless Ergonomic Wave Combo (K350 + M510)
Logitech Recertified 920-002555 MK550 Black USB RF Wireless Ergonomic Wave Combo (K350 + M510)

Pros: None

Cons: Neither the mouse or keyboard work. Communication problem. Tried installing on 2 different Windows 7 computers but wouldn't work on either. Don't understand why mouse would not work because I am currently using same model mouse on my primary system and this new mouse does nothing?? Logitech needs better quality control on their refurb supply. I want be making this mistake again.

Overall Review: Newegg seems to not want to either refund or swap out this junk. After this bad experience I will be considering cancelling my long time account with them. Too bad for them because I'm a system engineer/builder for large commercial IT firm.

iView 1000TPC Tablet PC Cortex A8 1.20GHz 10.1"

iView 1000TPC 1GB DDR3 Memory 10.1" 1024 x 600 Tablet PC Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

Pros: Android 4 Ice Cream goodness!! Everything seems to work great. Being an Systems Engineer and hacker, I usually root and reprogram most everything in order to make it my own and increase functionality. But, this Tablet has done everything that I needed so no need to change anything (yet). I really love Android 4, it will probably take over Micro$oft eventually.

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: Got mine for $169.
