Is Google Doorbell Worth The Money?

Today’s post is all about my Google Doorbell and whether or not I think Google Doorbell is worth it. Before I go any further I have done two YouTube reviews on the Google Doorbell. The first was my Under 60 Seconds Google Doorbell Review. The second was My Honest Google Doorbell Review, which was a more in depth review of the Google Doorbell. Something that I didn’t mention in this review was that I have an Apple IOS system and so it may be a little different for those of you who have Android.

Ease Of Setting Up The Google Doorbell

As most people do before attempting to install anything they will normally Google it. I found getting started with the Nest Doorbell site the most useful. My Nest Doorbell synched seamlessly with my Google Home and its installation was a breeze. I had it up and running in no time.

Can Your Google Nest Doorbell Be Hooked Up To Your Existing Wired Doorbell?

The answer to this is Yes, but you need to check first as to whether it is compatible or not. I found this video very helpful. As it turns out my Google Doorbell was compatible and it works a treat. Why would you want your Battery doorbell connected to an existing wired doorbell? Well, I found some of my rooms were out of earshot of my Google Home unless I had it on full volume which I didn’t want. In those cases the original doorbell would always notify me.

Also, and more importantly, having it wired to the existing doorbell seems to supply power to the doorbell so I haven’t needed to charge the battery.

Google Doorbell Video Quality

As for the video quality I found it to be excellent. You can see the quality for yourself in my My Honest Google Doorbell Review. When my daughter and granddaughter rang the doorbell I was able to have a chat with them from mums and it was crystal clear.

Facial Recognition?

Although I don’t have facial recognition it’s only because I haven’t subscribed to it, a subscription of around $12 will fix that.

With Nest Aware, you can use familiar face detection1 to teach your Google Nest camera to recognize faces of people that you know, and notify you when it detects people it doesn’t recognize. Over time, facial recognition becomes more accurate at determining familiar faces and can send you more helpful alerts.

You can also manage your familiar faces library in the app, like change a person’s name or delete a face profile.

All in all I am more than happy with my Google Doorbell. You can get yours from Amazon if you’re in the market for a good video doorbell.

My Best Water Dental Flosser Ever

Finding The Best Dental Flosser

I started using a water dental flosser some five years ago when I purchased the Waterpik. I did a Waterpik review on it for those who may be interested. At the time I loved my Waterpik. Because I could see the extra gunk that would drop into the sink while using it. The only complaint I had about it was that it chewed up the batteries which was quite expensive.

After about five years the Waterpik died on me and I had to source a replacement.

Voinee Water Dental Flosser Oral Irrigator

Using Amazon made looking for a good dental flosser easy. There was so many to choose from and they all came with customer reviews. This time I wanted a water dental flosser that was rechargeable! And one that would last longer Than my Waterpik. Because the Waterpik. I had before would run out of water before I had finished.

After a fair bit of research I decided on the Voinee Water Dental Flosser. Iit offered all the features I was looking for and so much more.

Voinee Water Dental Flosser Video Reviews

I did a couple of reviews on the Voinee Dental Flosser. The first one was one of my Under 60 Seconds Reviews. The second one was a more in-depth Comparison Video Between The Waterpik And The Voinee Water Dental Flosser.

Needless to say, the Voinee won! What really won me over was that the Voinee Dental Flosser was cheaper than new Waterpic which sadly still used AAA Batteries. Whereas the Voinee is reachable and held the charger longer than the AAA batteries did on my old Waterpik. Also, something that I found a little irritating was that as the batteries were losing charge so too did the Waterpik lose power.

Also where the Waterpik had only two power setting the Voinee had six! Not to mention the 5 working modes.

5 Practical Working Modes】”Normal Mode” for daily use with standard intensity. “Point Mode” for sensitive areas with indirect water pressure. “Pulse Mode” for gum massage with alternating strong and weak pressure. “Braces Mode” for braces and around area cleaning with strong pressure. “Hold Mode” press to release the water delivery, manually control the water stream. No more splashing water everywhere.

Its Worth Noting

As I mentioned in my video, since my original purchase they had updated my version of the dental flosser, the main difference that I could notice was a cosmetic one. In my video I referred to a rubber grommet that plugged up the hole that the charger fitted to. I had hoped they would come up with a better option. I’m sad to say they didn’t. If anything, they’ve taken a step back. At least with my version that grommet is attached to the unit, which you can see in the video. From the image on the right it appears to be the same plug but this one does not seem to be attached to the unit which means you could lose it down the sink. Perhaps it’s a tighter fit? One would hope so.

Uses For The Super Strong Neodymium Magnet

Uses For The Super Strong Neodymium Magnet

I’ve just got my Super Strong Neodymium Magnet today and I tested it to see just how strong it is. You can see the results in my Under 60 Sec review of my super strong Neodymium Magnet video. If you’re looking at getting one you can do so on Amazon.

Uses For The Super Strong Neodymium Magnet

Great Retrieval Magnet

Every year I clean the chimney over my fireplace. I do this by tying a 5kg weight to a special brush that I lower and raise down the chimney thereby cleaning it. I always worry that the rope will break. Now if it does I can lower the magnet to drag it all back up. In the video above I lifted just over 30 kg but they reckon it can lift 115kg!!

Finding And Retrieving Lost Metal Objects

One of the most frustrating things for me is dropping a screw or something and spending ages looking for it. Now all I need to do is to drag the magnet over the general area and it will have no trouble picking it up.

Picking Up Angle Grinder Brush Filings

Have you ever used one of those steel brushes on an angle grinder? If you have then you know what a pain it is to pick up all those broken steel filings that are lying around just waiting for someone to step on them. This earth magnet would solve that problem.

The Fishing Magnet

This magnet is sometimes called the fishing magnet. I thought what? Does it catch fish that’s swallowed some metal parts or something? Nope, from what I can gather you stick it on the end of a fishing line and throw it into the lake, river or sea in the hope of it catching something of worth. Not fish related at all. I know of someone who bought a magnet, nowhere as powerful as this one, to retrieve a mobile phone they dropped into a lake!!

Can you think of any other uses? If you can, let me know in the comment section.
