Pros: This is a great little novelty light. Very deceiving during the day as I was a little disappointed while playing with it until night time came. Then I realized just how bright this little guy is during the night hours. It has a beautiful green neon light. I must've pressed the button 500 times already just playing with it on my first day.
Cons: Came with the batteries reversed. At first I thought mine was broken until I unscrewed the bottom cap and started taking the batteries out. Took me 15 minutes just to take the batteries out. The batteries are a tight fit in the tube making them hard to take out. I noticed 2 of the batteries were facing opposite of the other two. By trial and error I figured out which direction they are supposed to face, the positive side facing down (towards the cap that unscrews).
Other Thoughts: Light portion is 3 inches long. The whole component is 4 3/4 inches long (excluding keychain)
Bottomline: The glass tube does not feel fragile, although I'm sure it'll break if it takes a decent fall. Seems well constructed. I'll definitely be buying more of these to give away to friends and family.
Pros: I got a couple of these for the novelty purposes. They came bubble wrapped but no actual packaging. Just the plastic egg wrapped with bubble wrap. I was a little worried the shell might be cracked but I was wrong. EVERYTHING arrived in perfect condition. I was expecting a few one eyed frogs due to reading other reviews but fortunately my frogs were not inbred ;-)
Cons: Manufacturer could maybe use a little box to put these guys into versus just mailing the product without packaging? No biggie though.
Other Thoughts: Putting water into the shell makes the froggie "carbonate" very slowly - it's cool watching him slowly dissipate! Like a very slow death. Prince took about 3 days to fully reach its maximum size.
Bottomline: Well worth the few bucks.
Pros: My son has used this with both an R4 and an Acekard 2i. Works well on both. It's too bad the microphone doesn't work on his DS Lite as the guitar hero (downloaded - does not come with package for those who might assume so) requires the microphone use for a portion of the training. Due to this, this device has not been used to its maximum but this is a fault on our end, not the products.
Cons: A little hard to slide into the Ds Lite slot. Instead of dealing with this, my son just leaves it plugged in at all times.
Other Thoughts: Have not had the "stuck button" problem some others were/are having but then again we don't use this controller often due to the microphone issue.I will say though that this is a great way to develop carpal tunnel - your wrist/hand will hurt after long continuous play, but that's with any controller, not just this one.
Bottomline: If you have a DS cart and downloaded the game, this is worth the $8.
Pros: Took me less than a minute after opening the package to "turn off" a 36 inch Magnavox television.I have yet to try it on any other tv's but plan on going to the local restaurant and turning off a few once I get around to it. What good is it to spend a little over 2 bucks if you can't have some fun with it?!
Cons: My son thinks the worst part about this device is that I won't let him take it to school so he can have some fun during movies - lol.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Whether you need a new remote for your old (or new) tv or want to have some fun with someone elses television, for slightly over 2 bucks this is well worth it.
Pros: Bought this for my son after he lost his charger and had to deal with charging his PSP Slim via the USB port on his computer. For the price, you can't go wrong. Local stores sell these starting at $14.99. Charges the PSP Slim just fine. No over heating issues.
Cons: I have zero complaints about this charger with regards to its quality.Only complaint is I didn't buy another just in case this one gets lost!
Other Thoughts: I see the price dropped - even a better deal now than when I got it!
Bottomline: If you need a charger, this is the one to get. Save 60% and buy it from here versus the local Mart stores.
