Thoughts on l10s ultra pro? Im thinking about buying one and it looks like it improves on the negatives you had about the regular l10s

[@TheHookUp]

@@roshanpatel2047 I don't think it's worth the extra cost. I think if you are going to upgrade from the L10S you should just go to the L20 and skip the pro ultra... Though if it were me I'd just get the L10S.

I think you might be the *only* channel that actually tracks prices in a way that identifies actual deals rather than just pretend ones. Thanks to your wife and to you.

If you're interested in tracking prices on your own, our Reprice app makes it easy to monitor Amazon and other sites right from your phone. It's a simple way to catch those genuine deals yourself!

[@jdx4174]

Yes, i am aware that no one cares, but i got Godzilla vs Kong in 3D for 14,99. The regular sales price is 27,99$, and its hard to come by on the used marked for a cheaper price. I also picked up the 4k version from the movie "65" which is usually also much more expensive. I imported them since they are both not for sale in my country.

[@TheHookUp]

Great movie, definitely one of those ones that works the sound system and projector.

Why aren’t you @ 16 million, REALLY your content provides so much actual value and the effort, time, dedication to evidence based comparisons and testing is low key #obsessive. My only advice is stay the course - at least with me your NPS is an 11/10. If you don’t get 5-6x more subscribers in the last months of this year I will be 😳. Simply you, your wife, and your content are so underrated right now- but stay the course - stay true to your values and THEY WILL COME…because you built ‘it’s from day 1 mate. ❤

What are the benefits and drawbacks of cob lighting vs a 60 led/m lightstrip for a closet application?

[@TheHookUp]

COB is higher cost and higher power draw, but brighter, no spots, and sometimes has higher CRI.

[@bluebell1]

I was waiting for this. Thank you!

[@elsa_g]

Do the U shape LED diffusers help prevent hot spots, e.g. when used for cove lighting?

[@BrandonDoyleMN]

the robot vacuum deals this year are crazy, but I appreciate the heads up on the bulbs it's only 5% but I've been buying these for all of our real estate listings ever since you did the comparison video (mismatched bulbs are a pet-peeve of mine)

[@TheHookUp]

Ah yes, non matching color temps make my eyes twitch. Though if it's just a few in each out I think I'd just keep the feit electric bulbs on hand that have the 6 selectable color temps. That way you could just easily match the existing bulbs.

[@Tilten]

Thanks! Looking for a new projector…😊

[@dacook1987]

I thought the dangbei db0x02 had some performance improvements to the laser as well. Also I thought it had higher lumen count?

[@TheHookUp]

Higher lumens, same black floor.

[@setharnold9764]

This was my introduction to your channel, it's a very positive first impression. I don't know how Amazon affiliate links should work but clicking the ones in the description brings up the KZbin in-app browser on my phone rather than the Amazon app. Is that something you've got control over, eg using a longer link that they have installed a link handler to match? (It's especially silly that searching for your link in the app returns no results rather than looking up what the short link links to!) It just feels like by the time i get this thing ordered the link back to you has probably been severed by the pile of half-finished software. Thanks

[@TheHookUp]

Yeah, that's a limitation of the KZbin app unfortunately. I can use something called a "deep link" to do it, but it makes the links look really sketchy so I just put the Amazon links in instead.

[@setharnold9764]

@@TheHookUp bummer, I was hoping it wouldn't be a big change. I think I jumped through the right hoops to use your link, thanks again!

[@thetenken47]

Interesting that you found the DBOX02 to be virtually the same performance to the original Mars Pro. Any preview of the JMGO N1S Ultra 4K vs the original? More laser speckle issues?

[@TheHookUp]

I haven't tested the N1S Ultra yet. That video is planned for October 11th.

[@MikeTrieu]

So the claimed "2450 ISO lumens" of the Mars Pro 2 vs the "1800 ISO lumens" of the original Mars Pro was a marketing lie?

[@TheHookUp]

Not a lie, just not all that useful. The DBOX02 has a "high performance" brightness mode that ramps up the fans to 100% and outputs as much light as possible. That mode can hit 2450 ISO lumens, but I don't think anyone will use it because it's loud and not as color accurate. I measured the DBOX02 at 178.9nits peak brightness vs 152.8nits on the Mars Pro, so that's a 17% brightness increase while maintaining color accuracy, but not 36%.

[@roymatoll]

Awesome work. Keep up. And thanks for sharing

[@Damachaman]

Those U shape LED diffusers - have you used them for exterior light show? I’ve used the flat ones and I’m gearing up for this winter (bought YPS puck track already based on your video - thanks)

Actually I have some hunhun diffusers left over but I’ll go find your link to buy the rest ;)

[@ilsommodante5636]

Hi, I was looking for a mopping robot and I followed your advice and bought the L10S. Unfortunately, I’ve been experiencing a major issue. It keeps tripping over carpets and lifting them. Is this problem completely avoidable by buying a different (and maybe more expensive robot) or is a problem that isn’t solvable at the moment? I have a wooden floor and very thin carpets I’d like to know if it makes sense to return the robot or not. Thanx. Ruggero from Italy

[@TheHookUp]

All robotic vacuums will have that issue. The best solution is to tape the edges of your rugs down to the floor.

[@ilsommodante5636]

@@TheHookUp thank you so much! This is exactly the kind of answer that I needed!!! :)

[@datdudeinred]

Is the dangbei dbox02 is worth the 1400?or should one just get benq x500i?

[@TheHookUp]

Not really in the same class of projectors, but the X500i is much better if you want to have a permanent setup.

[@ThePrinceF]

The Hisense C1 was marked down to $1345.00 - including the carrying case, after previously only marking down the C1 to $1437 yesterday with no sale on the carrying case. Any idea how good of a deal the C1 is at $1345 with the carrying case included based upon your tracking? (Original retail the bundle says $1892.94)

[@TheHookUp]

That’s a pretty great deal.

[@TheHookUp]

Ah, it’s a lightning deal and being sold by a vendor I don’t recognize. Tread carefully. The c1 vendor is normally projectorscreen on amazon.

[@TheHookUp]

If you click “other sellers it looks like you can get the same price from projectorscreen instead of hooray.

[@dmaccutups6870]

Just purchased a few hours ago from Hooray. Should I cancel and order just the C1 from Projector Screen Co? Any reason for concern with Hooray?

[@TheHookUp]

I've just never heard of them.

[@TheDeeyab]

Your way of work and findings are very appreciated. Thanks for doing it. I was in a need of a robot vacuum. It seems L10S is a go. Even though I liked your findings of best Mop option from Eufy S1 Pro, but it is expensive. Have you got a chance to test Eufy X10 omni?

[@TheHookUp]

X10 OMNI performs decently, but not as well as the L10S, and the build quality on the X10 OMNI feels cheap overall.

[@TheDeeyab]

Thank you 😊

[@caseycarter5277]

I have just stumbled upon your channel and boy do I wish I would have seen it a month ago. I am interested in the permanent outdoor lights. (Your review on those was tremendous by the way). I saw a set at Costco recently advertising the GOVEE "Elite" set. They are selling for $336 for 150 ft. I haven't been able to find anything online that differentiates these from the GOVEE Pro set. Any idea if this is something different worth buying as opposed to the "Pro" set?

What about the XGIMI Horizon Pro 4k? It’s $899. Do you recommend it?

[@TheHookUp]

The Mars Pro is better overall (better brightness, contrast, and color), but the Horizon Pro is also a nice projector. The big advantage of the Horizon Pro is the internal speakers are 10x better than the Mars Pro, and it also has AndroidTV built in, but no netflix compatibility.

Do you think the buying the L10S Pro Ultra is worth the price increase over the standard L10S Ultra?

[@TheHookUp]

I don't think it's worth the extra $220+ just to get a swing out mop pad and hot water.

[@mrykhoek]

I really like your channel and content, but as a home theater enthusiast for many years in no way is the JVC NZ8 a good comparison to any short throw laser projector such as this Nexigo Aurora Pro, entirely different league and use cases. Not suggesting the Nexigo isn't a good projector but the two are very different. One should consider the room and environment the projector will be in before an accurate recommendation can be made.

[@TheHookUp]

While that's certainly true, unless it's in a completely light controlled bat cave an Aurora pro with an ALR screen will outperform an NZ8 on a cinema screen. Check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHTJn6qkgdBrj9Esi=dpYxE3SYT4AcRl9l&t=965

Only issue is it's 1080p not 4k, but as I mentioned in this video, 4k non-bulb projectors under $1000 are extremely rare.

[@curtisbme]

Quiet heroic of your wife to do but why since CamelCamelCamel (and others) is already doing this tracking? I'm hoping it was something automated she set up as that would be a ton of manual checking.

[@TheHookUp]

CamelCamelCamel cannot track promo codes and coupon codes, so if a product is $1500 with a $500 coupon for 3 weeks before prime day and $1000 with no coupon on prime day it will show a $500 drop when it is actually the exact same price.
