This Blog contains box openings and reviews carried out by fixed1t for my own technology projects or interests. I am not paid to carry out reviews and the slow pace is to enable watchers to follow the videos and make up their own minds.
Links to the featured products tend to be ones I've used or found myself and in many cases for products I have purchased myself to use.

I finished Karcher Window Vacuum Cleaner WV50 VAC'ing the rest of the insides of the windows, patio doors and glass doors and here are the results:
1) Its a remarkably fast process and really easy learn and master.
2) Doing all of the windows with the WV50 merely generated just over a centimetre of dirty water in the container.
Karcher Window Vacuum Cleaner WV50
Just 1cm of dirty water from over 10 windows and doors.
The best technique is:
i) Wet and gently scrub the window with a none abrasive Soft Cloth
ii) Start from the bottom of the window and stroke upwards
iii) Once you get to just below the centre of the window turn the WV50 upright and begin stroking down the window and come down to 10 below the dirty water line from the upward sweet.
iv) Don't let the glass dry out , instead quickly wipe off any residence from the window with clean micro fibre cloth.
Using this method I was able to wash, wipe and polish each window in a few minutes.
I thoroughly recommend the Karcher Window Vacuum Cleaner WV50
Despite people relying heavily on technology, and investing substantial money per family unit in Apple iPad's and Android tablets most are sticking it flimsy flip cases, imagining that they offer protection in everyday situations, in reality they don't.
Which is good for people like me 'fixed1t' as I get to earn money from repairing them, but not for family units in these cash strapped times.
Now to a certain level, you get what you pay for, titanium case with innards floating in an intelligent shock absorbing gel, is great for the SciFi movies, but in reality people what something to help out if it is:
knocked off a table by a family pet (or child)
dropped by an intoxicated person your trying to show a video to
dropped by an older person as they fall asleep the 4th time on the same paragraph
dropped by an inquisitive child down the stairs
etc etc...
I watched this bonkers video of two iPads being thrown hard off a 30ft roof:
And thought HaHa that seems pretty crazy (but wouldn't I like to try it, if you could afford it)?
Although both iPads were damaged one was still flashing whilst the other was destroyed. Now I don't advocate doing this and for me personally a 30FT fall off a building is unlikely in most instances unless your watching a YouTube video on how to SAFELY install a roof top aerial, whilst balanced on a ladder 30ft up in a Gale.
But what I got from the videos was that OTTERBOX have some cool and pretty robust cases in the defender range and if you need a case then you should be able to get one from eBay at a range of prices.
Of course if you do happen to break the device I'll be happy to fixed1t it ;-)
If you a Nexus 7 user, they do a version of the Nexus 7, and if you damage it then you may want to consider having a go at repairing it, and the links are on my:
Unboxing KLYP IT OR MISS IT - iPhone Case Tripod & LED Lights, if your making iPhone videos this is great, after trying and researching others I bought it
After trying various iPhone camera Tripod Holders and Lights, I came across this excellent KLYP IT OR MISS IT package for the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s.
This is a really comprehensive package, its well packed and come with a rang of attachment which make it usable with the iPhone 4 and 4s and any other Camera or video system.
The Tiny metal tripod fits nicely into the pocket when taking a standard camera out and about for taking impromptu selfies. The full adjustable 24 led light source and associated Hot Shoe connector make it a useful LED Light for other situation such as Skype or facetime.
