I got the Liumy Digital Multimeter AC/DC Current, Voltage Resistance Meter/Tester for my husband.  He is the go to person, in our household, for anything that I don’t understand, or don’t need to know.

He told me that it is perfect for testing batteries.  So hubby opened it up, and was pleased to see that it has a protective rubber band, going all around it.  It also has a flip up stand, so that you can use it, and still have your hands free, for using both of the test leads to check the battery.

Not only can it be used on regular everyday batteries, but also on car batteries, and so much more

I have a very happy husband with his new toy.  Guys are so difficult to buy for, so if you have a Do It Yourself guy, then this could be a perfect gift for him.

I did receive this product at a discount, but that didn’t affect the review, I have written here.

This is a product that my husband wanted.  When the Liumy Laser Distance Meter arrived, I handed it straight over to my husband.  

It comes with an Owner’s Manual, that has a quick start, Initial Operating and Settings, Distance Measurement, Functions, and Trouble Shooting.  Normally my husband doesn’t read the manual, but he had the product in one hand, and the instructions in the other.

After a few minutes, he had it working.  He was going around the house, and measuring different areas, and places.  I am wanted new furniture, and I think this will be great, as I won’t have to move the furniture, or climb on it, to measure the area I have available.

As I am not technical at all, I am giving you this information from the Amazon webpage: ‘

  • →HIGHT ACCURACY: accurate to ± 0.005 feet laser precision technology, horizontal bubble is more convenient to adjust the measurement angle, the measurement range extended to 131Ft.
  • →SILENT DESIGN AND ANTI-GLARE DESIGN: to open the mute function for indoor libraries and other places where quiet work, anti-glare design so that the rangefinder in the sun is still able to work.
  • →DURABLE AND RESONABLE DESIGN: IP54 dustproof and waterproof, pocket size. Anti-drop waterproof and dustproof, more convenient to carry.
  • →MORE INTELLIGENT DESIGN: LED backlight for dark and night use, 3 Min Automatic Shutdown and 30 seconds laser auto-off function to save power.
  • →MULTI-FUNCTION: Pythagorean method-three points, area, volume, continuous measurement, addition and subtraction, Single-distance Measurement.‘

My husband is very pleased with it, it looks really smart, easy to hold, and durable.  He has added it to his collection of tools.  A very happy guy.

I did receive this item at a discounted price, and wanted to let you D.I.Y guys know that these are available.

Baobado Premium Survival Bracelet-Set only $10.99 for 3-Outdoor Emergency Paracord Bracelet 5 in 1 With Compass, Flint Fire Starter, Emergency Scraper/Knife, Whistle, Rescue Rope-Perfect for Camping, Hiking, Trekking, Travel

Do you go out on your own?  Early in the morning, or in the evenings?  Then I think you should check out the Baobado Premium Survival Bracelet.  Even if you live in a town, or city, just have the whistle will make you feel safer.

If you are an outdoors person, and go camping, hiking, trekking, etc., then you will have a compass, flint fire starter, emergency scraper/knife, whistle, and the rescue rope.

There are 3 bracelets, and I can’t decide which I like the best.  The black blends in with anything, the orange is really colorful, and I love the Army green.  I am thinking that as my husband was in the Royal Air Force for 22 years, and his grandson is still in the Marines with almost 17 years under his belt, then the Army green one will go with his camouflage shorts.

It is a one size fits all, and fits my husband’s wrist perfectly.  I have mine further up my arm, but it stays well.  I do have tiny wrists, even though I have great muscles, from working out.

From the Amazon website:  ‘SUPER STRONG & DURABLE & ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT: Has been tried & tested to a minimum Breaking Point Of 550 lbs/250 kg. You can use it from stabilize a tent to build a shelter, create hunter traps, hiking rope,

scraper tool, care a wound & many more.’  Combined with the compass, fire starter, and whistle you can’t beat the price at $10.99 for 3.

I did receive these amazing bracelets for free, and wanted to share the benefits of having them with you.

Posted in Father's day, gifts, toolsTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 2 Comments

We have had our vehicle for over a year now, and my husband gets a hand vacuum, and plugs it into a socket in the garage, and does the floors.  That’s it.  So when I saw the Hikeren DC 12-Volt 106W We t& Dry Handheld Auto Vacuum Cleaner,16.4FT(5M)Power Cord with 2 HEPA Filters, One Carry Bag (Black), I knew that it was perfect for our needs.

In the photos, and also the video, you can see what you get for your money.  An excellent product, that is really sturdy, and will last a very long time.  It fits nicely in the hand, and really looks a quality product.

I took the vacuum and the accessories out to the car, and had my husband hold the phone to video me.  I switched on the ignition, put the plug in the cigarette lighter, and pressed the power switch.  The suction was amazing.  I used the brush attachment, and did the passenger seat.  The color changed from a pale gray, to a dark one, where all the dust was removed.

I am really impressed as to see what a huge difference it made to the car seat.  I stopped then, and came in.  My husband plans on doing the floors later.

When I checked his video it didn’t come out.  So maybe later I will do a video of him vacuuming the floors.

From the Amazon website: POWERFUL SUCTION: Hikeren car vacuum has CE, ROHS Certification. 12volt, 106w, 3.0KPA suction. 75db low noise can effectively clean the dust inside the car.    REMOVABLE & WASHABLE HEPA FILTER: Hikeren car vacuum with two HEPA filter which is detachable and easy to be cleaned.’

I really am very happy with the new wet and dry vacuum, and know that our vehicle with get more loving, tender care, now that I have the correct tools for it.

I did receive this product at a discount price, and wanted to share my experience with you.

Moongo Wrench Bushing Set 7-19MM Magic Spanner Grip Wrench Universal Socket Ratchet Wrench Fool inch Sleeve Piece Magic (Red)2pcs

Posted in Father's day, Home products, toolsTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

My husband should really be doing this review, as this product is for him.  As we get older it gets harder to remove screws, bolts, etc., so this is when the Moongo Wrench Bushing Set 7-19MM Magic Spanner Grip Wrench Universal Socket Ratchet Wrench Fool inch Sleeve Piece Magic (Red)2pcs come in handy.

We were going to a demonstration with a screw in my pantry, but it was high up, and difficult for me to video it.  The short video shows how it works, and I have added photos too.

It is very well made, small enough to have handy, and works every time.

From the Amazon website: ‘Can be disassembled various shapes nuts, screws, hooks, lag screws, and bolt heads etc. Self-adjusts to fit thousands of fasteners. Polished chrome finish. Internally by 58 high-carbon steel hardness pole constituted.  100% Brand New and High Quality ,The way it sets up with the wrench more leverage than a screwdriver to turn tighter screws.’

My husband is very happy with it, and knows that it will come in very handy for him.

HOLDPEAK 981C Non-contact Digital Laser IR Infrared Thermometer

Posted in free, Home and Outdoors, Home products, Kitchen, toolsTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 1 Comment

We all have regular thermometers to take our temperature, and I also have a non contact one as well, but thought it would be neat to have the HOLDPEAK 981C Non-contact Digital Laser IR Infrared Thermometer With Data Hold & Emissivity Adjustable – Temperature Gun For Both Indoors And Outdoors Use , -58 ~ +1022 F

First off you need to put the battery in, that comes with it.  You will find it in the battery compartment.  It has to be unwrapped, and then you have to connect it to the contacts.

That’s it.  You then can have fun checking out temperatures.  The condo come up at 78.4 F.  You can also have Celsius as well.  I put the thermometer towards the fan, and it dropped a couple of degrees.

I then went out into our garage and checked the temperature.  I boiled water, tried it in the fridge, and then the freezer.  This is certainly a handy item to have.  It will be great for cooking, as right now I have to poke the food with the thermometer to get a reading.

My husband is already thinking of putting it with his tools, but he can only borrow it, and it goes in my kitchen.

I received this item for free, for an honest, and unbiased review.
