Awesome Portable Power

RAVPower Deluxe 8400mAh Power Bank External Battery Pack Charger for Apple iPad 4, 3, mini, iPhone 5, 4S; Samsung Galaxy S4, S3, Note 2; Lumia 1020, 920, Nexus 4, 7, Moto X and other Mobile Device

Pros: This RAVPower Deluxe 8400mAh is nothing less than awesome. Heck, it even has a built in flashlight. It has two USB outputs. One output is rated at 5V / 1A and the other is rated at 5V / 2A. They include two USB adapters with several plugs to match what you're trying to charge. You can even you both outputs at the same time. I was able to charge my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 twice, my micro helicopter,and my Logitech bluetooth headset and still have about half a charge. And that was right out of the box. I haven't even given it the initial charge yet.

Cons: The biggest problem that I see is that I only bought one. I should have bought several for Christmas gifts.

The HooToo Nano is a Great Addition to any Electronics Travel Bag

Pros: I got the HooToo Nano for a trip that I was taking where I would be staying in hotels and using the hotel public Wi-Fi.. Often times I have to remote into the office servers to do some work. To avoid security issues in the past, I had to use my phone as a hotspot but that ends up using a lot of my data. The HooToo was a perfect solution that allows me to set up my own private network. However, I'm glad I did some reading before I went on the road. There is a firmware upgrade that is required to do this in a hotel or other public network. I would have been frustrated if I had been on the road and it didn't work out of the box. But, I installed the upgrade and had no issues. The USB media sharing is a great feature. I run a relatively small SSD on my laptop and don't want to fill it with music. So I just loaded up a thumb drive with all my favorite music and threw it in my bag. That way I can access the music from both my laptop and my phone without having to have all my devices running through my laptop. I can shut off my laptop and still have access to my music through the HooToo app on my phone. P.S....it helps to have a little wall charger or an always on USB port on your laptop so you don't have to leave your laptop turned on.

Cons: Needed a firmware upgrade but that is documented and available through their website so it's not a big deal.

Pros: Size Easy Setup Easy Pairing Range Key Action

Cons: Wished it was in black

Overall Review: I recently received a TaoTronics TT-MK003 Mini Wireless Bluetooth 3.0 Keyboard for evaluation purposes. In return I said I would give an honest evaluation. I received my keyboard and it was in perfect condition. Setup was simple and I had it paired to my Kindle Fire HDX in no time. I had no issues with pairing. I'm very particular about keyboards. The action of the keys has to be just right or I'll return it. The action on these keys is perfect. Just the right amount of resistance. I also paid this keyboard with my Samsung Smart TV as I occasionally Skype with my dad and we just use the text. It paired with no issues and worked very well. I have been using this keyboard for a couple of months now. The battery life is excellent and overall, I would say that this is a must have if you have a device with an onscreen keyboard and you type longer emails.

Quality is Never an Issue

Pros: I always use Zebra labels in my barcode printers. Zebra makes quality products and it shows. I never have an issue with how they print or stick to the products.

Cons: I have not had any issues with Zebra labels.
