I see a few Reolink security cams on sale and pretty sure that some irates have given them good reviews in the security cam threads.
Picked one up to retire the 2 yr old Dekco ptz cam that has become flaky - "feeling kind of cute, Idk, might record that person in the yard or i might not":shaking:

This, Mitutoyo's are a solid bet....I have a couple of their calipers, a few dial indicators, and a few other instruments they make (e.g. radius gauges, pitch gauges, etc.)

Take this guys word with a grain of salt, but it seems like there are some knockoffs on Amazon. I know, first time Ive heard of it too. Although, Im sort of impressed by the level of detail the knockoffs are going through.



Basically for a home workshop, might be worth the risk?

Buy shipped and sold from amazon and you're fine...any third party sellers, stay away. This goes for pretty much any of the big name brand things.

That said, I've often found Mitutoyo stuff cheaper at other places, up here places like KBC or ITM are often cheaper than amazon.

I've had good experience with Reolink.

I didn't want to run Ethernet so went with Wyze recently. I've been pleased so far. App is free, and if you stick an micro SD card in each camera, there's no need to pay for cloud storage.

There's a few Prime Day options.


I have the pan and tilt "Cam Pan V3" over my garage door. It's eerie the way it tracks you.
 
These Sennheiser earbuds have been great earbuds. They were $80 when I bought them 13 months ago, not a "Prime Day" deal but down to $60 now.


Their cheapest active noise canceling version is down to $80 for Prime Day though.

Is this the one to get? The solar option seems expensive. Can you use any panels or do you have to use one made for the device?

Seems like a good idea for hurricane season just to keep devices charged.

I don’t know anything about the battery packs. I have gas powered generators. I would assume it’s a proprietary plug but it could be as simple as DC7909 connection to a DC8020.

How To Connect Third-Party Solar Panels To Jackery Explorer

The portable Jackery Explorer power stations/solar generators 160/240/500/1000 are popular, but how do you connect third-party solar panels to them?

pjaf matches my harbor freight stuff.


I guess I could by RCBS and feel like I’m buying American. Straight out of Oroville, CA
 
On the subject of cheap digital calipers. I got the Nephew a Neiko stainless model and then got one to use at work too. It's good enough for 3D printer work, and identifying the size of hardware to know what replacement parts to order. It's for sure not US made, but it's also <$20.


I've got an old Mitutoyo dial caliper I use on the regular at home. My eyes aren't as good as they used to be so I did spurge for a Mitutoyo 0-1" digital Micrometer.
 
Gooloo 4000 amp jump pack for $80. The internet says these are really good.

Are any of the sub $50 reflex sights on Amazon not total garbage?
I may try to pick one up during Prime day if anyone has experience with them.
It's just for a kids .22 at 75 yards. My nephew really has trouble with a scope, but he's pretty decent snake eyes with open sights. I'm thinking one of those reflex red dot sights might work great for him.

I've got one. It'll light off a 6.7 Cummins no problem. Bought a 2nd for one of my guys to keep in his truck. Think they were ~$115 when I bought them 2-3 years ago. Would recommend.
 
So I don't have specific links, but stuff I've seen decent deals on, some of which you guys have mentioned

-TVs
-Bluetooth speakers
-Jump packs and NOCO chargers
-LifePO4 batteries
-AGM batteries
-Solar
-12v fridges
-Rotella oil (but Walmart may still be cheaper)

Little is having a sale on batteries. Their 300 amp hour one is just over $700.

Cheapest it’s been since I started tracking.
It was $250 just before Christmas.
100 amp hour mini or group 24

Fire color packs. I’ve used these. They’re fun and the color last a good time. No it doesn’t make the ENTIRE fire blue and green, but it does add a cool factor to it. Especially when the kids are under 13.

usually $15. $12 today.

there is another 10 Percent coupon on those li time batteries. $209 for a group 24 100 amp is a great deal
