Mac Folks, we always have the good stuff for you. We are loving the new MacBook Air and iPad Air. Why pay MacBook Pro and iPad Pro prices when you can have a rock star of a computer or tablet in a smaller and lighter form? The new MacMini computer, a personal favorite of Sue’s, is back with a faster and even smaller footprint. And, we’ve decided to upgrade our Apple Watch game this year with the Apple Watch Series 10. Great new health features, water resistance and we can get alerts from the Smart Bird Feeder Camera notifications on it!
For you outdoorsie people, we have a haul of ideas. We mentioned the Smart Birder Feeder with Camera. If you don’t have one yet, go get one or give one to a loved one. We especially love the Squirrel Alarm! If we’re spending more time outside, that means we’re grilling. Up your grill game with the new Meater Pro Duo thermostats that use Wi-Fi. While grilling, keep those pesky mosquitos away with the Thermacell Mosquito Repeller, a personal favorite of Sue’s when she is grilling. And, if you need better Wi-Fi outside for your Meater Thermometer, get the Eero Outdoor 7 to extend your Wi-Fi to the outer reaches of your yard. Since we have such great outdoor Wi-Fi, we added the Kasa Smart Plug Mini inside and the Kasa Outdoor Smart Plugs to enhance our backyard lighting game. If you’re ready to hit the bike trails, get on an eBike and take advantage of the eBike Rebate Program.
Anne from She’s Wired recently had a smart thermostat installed in her home. She chose the Sensi. She opted to share her thermostat so it can be regulated if the power grid is being overused. Her favorite part of the new thermostat is changing the temp from anywhere in her house. Jan has been a long-time smart thermostat advocate. Her preference is the Ecobee. Many She’s Wired clients use the Ecobee Smart Thermostat. Jan’s favorite part is the use of room sensors to tell the thermostat where to take temp readings. Sue, another long-time smart thermostat fan has always used the Nest, now Google, smart thermostats. She has one of the first Nest Smart Thermostats and is finally getting ready to upgrade to the latest Google Thermostats and take advantage of all the new features. Remember, if you get a new smart thermostat, check with your power company about any rebate programs.
If you need an excellent digital notebook, get on board with the reMarkable Paper Pro. These tablets do one thing and one thing only - let you take notes without all the other distractions that come with tablets. Sue’s sister has been using these notebooks in her law practice for years and raves about the efficiencies of the device.
Traveling with an injury, like Sue did this year? Get the USB powered travel heating pad. It’s portable and light and can be used on a plane or in a car.
Lastly, whether it’s inside or out, movies are always a hit with family and friends. Check out the Samsung Freestyle Projector that syncs with your smartphone for watching movies anywhere your popcorn takes you.
