REVIEW: Wireless Android Auto Adapter – Soo convenient! No more USB cable disconnects!!!

I got a Wireless Android Auto Adaptor ( https://amzn.to/3VaMlX7 ). I got one of the latest ones that had a replaceable USB cable ( https://amzn.to/3F6M2qP ) for my 2018 Honda Clarity and Civic. It works very well and simple to install. I have been using it for the past 2 weeks and it connects when i get in the car. This is my review.

The issue with my Honda Clarity and Android Auto was the cable connection has been dropping and disconnecting every time the cable gets loose. The USB jack on the car was getting loose every time my phone moved. I have been replacing USB C cables and it still gets loose. So I decided to get a Wireless Android Auto Adaptor ( https://amzn.to/3VaMlX7 ). I got one of the latest ones that had a replaceable USB cable ( https://amzn.to/3F6M2qP ) so in case i needed to use a longer cable to hide the unit i can.

Setup: Most of these Wireless Android Auto Adaptor ( https://amzn.to/3VaMlX7 ) need to have the firmware updated. Read the instructions and update before installing it on your car. For this one, the device name was ‘smartBox-xxxx’ I used Wifi Direct to connect and update the latest firmware. It took about 5 minutes to download and update the firmware.

When activating Android Auto at the first time you need to plug the adapter into vehicle USB port, turn on Bluetooth and WiFi, pair to Bluetooth. The initial pairing took about 1 minute. The adapter will then connect with the Wifi and Bluetooth every time time after the car and the adapter powers up. It automatically connect with Bluetooth within in about 10 – 15 seconds.

Overall this was a very useful and it solved the loose Android Auto USB cable jack problem. It did take about 20 – 30 minute install due to the hard to read instructions. I now love wireless android auto.

REVIEW: WAATR HydroCap – UV Self Cleaning Water Bottle Cap!

I love my wide mouth Hydroflask ( https://amzn.to/3Mj6TJJ ) and ThermoFlask take them everywhere with me.

According to the packaging, WAATR HydroCap ( https://amzn.to/3yrYBcN ) uses UV-C light to kill 99% of the germs with the UV-C light in the rechargeable cap. For me it brings me peace of mind to zap my drinking water. Especially when traveling to places like the woods or other countries where water safety is a concern.

WAATR HydroCap ( https://amzn.to/3yrYBcN )- Self Cleaning UV-C light emitting water bottle cap
is pretty useful for travel and zapping water with UV C light.
What I liked and disliked about the self cleaning bottle cap:
Likes:

  • Great idea for travelers
  • Great for people who love their HydroFlasks and dont want to buy another water purifier specific bottle.
  • Simple to use.
  • Reminder to drink water timer
  • Self cleaning mode
  • Different levels of water purification.

Dislike:

  • No USB C fast charging – 3 hours to charge initially.
  • Charging cable is proprietary.
  • Need to fill the water bottle completely to activate UV light.

Overall I love my Waatr HydroCap, more for the ability to use UV light to purify my water when I travel to the gym, back woods hike, or to another country. It doesnt add too much more weight and the USB rechargeable battery is convenient.
