Man, that Pocket Tripod looks really versatile. The price is kinda high, but it does seem to reflect on the build quality and versatility. I assume it’d be much cheaper if it didn’t include all those adapters. But then again you might have to buy a new one when changing phones, or for other devices, like tablets.
Hey James, hope you and the family are doing great!! Another awesome video. On the magnetic charging cables, I have a couple of them myself, the entire cable lights up kind of has the affect of seeing the charge going into the phone, one is blue and one is red. They do work great however, if you need your phone a certain way, you need a little extra cable away from the phone or it will kind of bend the magnetic parts apart. You need approx. an inch or so to make the cable stay straight away from the phone to prevent that from happening.
Its light up so you can found it in the dar
For the magnetic cable, does it change as fast as a standard cable, and does it pass data as well?
Can you test them shower heads that supposedly make the pressure higher? They have Little Rock’s or something in them!
Love your videos!!
Magnetic chargers are the best! Use them on most of my devices. Excellent for the Oculus Quest!
does the magnetic charger charge at full speed? I have a multi-headed charger thing and a warning comes up telling me that ‘your device is slow-charging’ or something like that
That iFlex looked pretty wavy and bent up just from your small amount of testing, wonder how it would hold up over time.
Those of us who have phones without a headset connector spot couldn’t use the magnetic cables.
I need a magnetic cable that has high-speed charging, but otherwise it would be nice for preventing pocket lint getting into the port.
If you leave the magnetic connector phone piece in your phone or any device, be very careful. If you drop the device and it breaks apart the magnetic connector, you could end up breaking it off and having the piece stuck inside. ended up happening when i was charging my headset and ended up destroying the charging port. it just slipped off the table and landed on the charging piece.
OMG those sunglasses. I almost spit out my coffee when I saw those! Not sure who you’re trying to imitate in that back seat scene with those FuManChu glasses but they make an awesome gag gift
Biggest advantage to the magnetic cables is one can’t for all devices be it iOS old android new android etc just buy extra plug ends and use one cable for everything
The screen magnifier (love the wooden look) is a Fresnel lens – you’re right, these are grooves. It’s basically the outside curve of a normal lens, broken into sections and laid out on a flat surface – they can be really powerful (as in burn wood in seconds with the right one).
There’s an item used to change oil in cars similar to the iflex. It’s called a pig funnel.
imagine your on a plane and someone drapes that pink phone holder into ur head space lol
Only thing about amazon ratings most are rated by employees. So take their reviews with a grainy if salt
That tripod looks like a ridiculous amount of work just for the privilege of buying their product. You can accomplish it much easier with a $5 pop socket and buy 6 of them for that price
I used those magnetic charging cables like 8-10 years ago for awhile and they were cool at first but then you remember you always have to have that particular cable on you so you’re forced to buy multiples so you have one for home, the car, work, and whatever else. They work well and are cool but from my experience the novelty wears off quickly and you’ll eventually end up back to a normal cable…
For people with wireless headphones, this is probably a good product as it makes charging easier *and* keeps dust out to reduce wear
