Amazon Deal Alerts & Discussion Thread

I’d like to say that this light arrived in 2 days instead of the quoted 1-2 months. I’m shocked. For the light, I can indeed confirm that it is exactly one metric flashlight.

Wow, $16 is a heck of a deal. Just ordered one, THANK YOU !

Lightning deal.

$29.24 for a 10 Port USB 3.0 Hub (with 10% off box clicked.)

I've been waiting for the price to drop on this for a while now, so I just snagged one.

Insanely low price for something like this. Originally $26.99. Just $3. And it’s free shipping. It’s fulfilled by the seller, not Amazon too. Sometimes when you get a good deal like that, the original price counts towards the shipping, so you can add on a few small items and still enjoy free shipping. Not so with this. So I placed an order, totaled to $3.20 with tax. I don’t know how they make any money on it!

It’ll be interesting to see how is the compatibility. Some of these USB-C to 3.5mm jacks don’t work, or sound crappy. I have a Baseus one that’s quite good. Also the Apple one and that works fine on my Google Pixel.

$17.21 was my deal and a deal it is! Thanks for the heads-up! :smiley:

$16.95 for me. Looks like a deal.

No ‘10% off box’ on my page :rage:

Fart ’n Fire for Fifteen.

Macy’s, too:

I don’t know how I lived without one.

I think of the saying, “If thy brother offendeth thee, giveth his kid a drum”.

Buy one of those for the kids of someone you hate.

Thanks for the hot tip on the hot tips!

Got one…$17…woot!

From Vipon:

“LUMINTOP Bike Tail Light Type C Rechargeable BT1 4 Modes Rear Bike Light Max Runtime 10 Hours Type C Charging Port IPX-4 Waterproof Bicycle Tailight”.

I don’t ride a bike, but I own one of these and they’re nice to have for walking so you can be seen when it’s dark. It ends up being closer to $6 with the additional coupon.

Well done. Came here to post this….still going.

I received this USB hub today.

It seems to work fine.

The main complaint in Amazon reviews is that it gets quite hot, but I won't be charging a bunch of stuff like some people do, so maybe the heat won't be a problem for me.

UPDATE:

I've had six external hard drives plugged into this USB hub for twelve hours, and the hub is nowhere near hot.

So I think the hub will not get quite hot unless you do something like try to charge ten tablets at the same time.

Gloves $2.80

I got pairs of kids gloves as well.

On Vipon this morning.

3V? Is this for Arlo cameras only?

Pulled this info from Amazon review. I bought a set to try in my 3v CR123 lights.

These are 3v regulated and not like your normal rcr123a

Some observations: Arrived with 3 of the 4 batteries < 3.0v and off via protection, was able to activate them on my charger and measured 2.7v so ok. Don’t try to charge these on a conventional charger as they never stop as are regulated at 3v and don’t reach 4.2v to stop the charge cycle. Must use the microusb port to charge. Observed that if overdischarged and protection enabled the usb charge port does not reenable the battery, had to enable on a charger before would take a charge via usb. Charge rate on the port is 300ma.
