The Giz Wiz Show 1672, April 27th 2018 Independent Show #155
April 27, 2018 Post a Comment The Giz Wiz Show recently started it's13th year! The first show was February 20th, 2006. And soon (May 2018) we'll be entering our 4th year of Independent Production! That's thanks to our wonderful Patreon supporters! If it wasn't for them, the Giz Wiz Show would be gone. If you'd like to support OMGchad & DickDe in our independent venture (we pay for everything ourselves, including travel) just click the Patreon link at the top of our show web page: http://www.gizwiz.tv You can also contribute just once via the PayPal link that's there too. And thank you for doing that! Our show wouldn't exist without our viewer's support, but a bit more support would be a big help. (As we can say honestly, asking for more Patreon supporters is not to make money, it helps us lose less money doing The Giz Wiz. Thanks!)
There were two press events this past week. One from Anker who introduced several new speakers and gave a hands-on look on their new Eufy EverCam Security Camera. Read about it below. And then there was the The Time To Play Magazine Spring event. I'll have fun toys and games from that for the next couple of weeks.
The Eufy EverCam from Anker is wireless security cam has many outstanding features. The one that stands out most is “365-Day Battery Life”! I don't totally understand how they did that, but a company spokesman said that 70% of the time the EverCam switches to a sub-carrier to commute with the base unit and that connection takes far less power than WiFi. Other features include: Face-Recognizing Alerts | Motion Detection | 1080p Full HD | Free Local Storage (via the built in SD card slot) | Night Vision | Weatherproof (IP66). As far as motion detection goes, the EverCam reduces false alarms by up to 95%. There video will show you their 3-step scanning and filtering process. A 140° wide-angle lens provides a panoramic view, and the top-of-the-line Sony Exmor sensor combine with large f2.2 aperture to offer around-the-clock Full HD surveillance. The included 16GB micro SD card, which you can expand anytime you want, records approximately 1 year of video on one camera, with 10 videos per day, 30 seconds each. If you still prefer cloud storage, it's available for $2.99/month per camera. This Kickstarter project is very popular already. As of 4/26/18 they have $1,523,710 pledged of their $50,000 goal from 4,360 backers with 50 days to go! The video on this camera looked great. While the unit itself doesn't look too different from others, it's all the internal features that is making this a runaway hit on Kickstarter!
