REVIEW: Ping Pong Paddles COMPARED! Nibiru Sport VS Franklin Sports (Recreational)

My coworkers got me hooked on playing Ping Pong at lunch time. The office recreation room had Franklin Sports recreational paddles ( https://amzn.to/2YRiZ8s ), while my coworkers bought Nibiru Sport Ping Pong professional paddles ( https://amzn.to/30u21h3 )

Stuff in this video:
Nibiru Sport Ping Pong paddles ( https://amzn.to/30u21h3 )
Franklin Sports recreational paddles ( https://amzn.to/2YRiZ8s )

To start playing ping pong the Franklin Sports recreational paddles ( https://amzn.to/2YRiZ8s ) work fine for learning and volleying. They are very inexpensive and can be bought for about $10 for two paddles and 3 balls (1 star). They are very lightweight and the PIP or dotted rubber pad works to grip the ball and give it top spin.

When using the Nibiru Sport Ping Pong paddles ( https://amzn.to/30u21h3 ) , the paddle was heavier due to the high grip rubber top layer and the sub rubber base layer. Both have similar wood panel. The control with the high grip rubber pad allows for faster spin and finer grip.

If you let the ping pong ball drop on the paddles, the Nibiru Sport Ping Pong paddles ( https://amzn.to/30u21h3 ) absorbs the energy of the ball making it less bouncy on the paddle but more control of gripping the ball with the surface pad. The Franklin has a lot of energy bouncing off the thin rubber pad, making it less easier to control.

Overall I love my Nibiru Sport Ping Pong paddles ( https://amzn.to/30u21h3 ) over the Franklin ping pong paddles.

Stuff in this video:
Portable External Travel Monitors ( https://amzn.to/3oPRlmI )

I travel and work remotely almost every day. I have 3 different external monitors ready for my laptop, smart phone, and Xbox, depending on location of work. These are all 1080P IPS Full HD external monitors with USB C and HDMI inputs and work with Windows, iOS, and Android USBC devices and my Xbox game console.

They have have stands and a protective cover. They are all very light weight and are powered by USB C external power 5 volts (under 3A) and can be powered by an external power bank. I do not like having a battery built into the screen as batteries don’t travel well on with air travel, and the lifespan of the rechargeable batteries are limited.

I use my NIUTO to Portable Touch Monitor 14 inch ( https://amzn.to/3mETz5U ) if I need touch screen. This is my primary monitor when traveling and using Samsung DEX on my Samsung Note 20 Ultra ( https://amzn.to/3Dq7xPK ). There is a USB C and USB A port for connecting a use hub for to make this my portable work station from a powerful smart phone. This follows me with my backpack.

I use my Kogoda 13.3 Inch External Monitor ( https://amzn.to/3iLEpuA ) primarily in my car while working on my laptop or playing Xbox or Nintendo switch on the road. It does not have touchscreen, however the small size, bright screen, and durable 1080P screen is all I need. This either stays in the car on a iPad holder or tucked away under the car seat or trunk storage.

I use my 15 inch large 15.6″ IPS HDR 1920X1080 FHD ( https://amzn.to/3Duzgic ) when I travel with my for video editing or with my large 17 inch gaming laptop. It adds lots of desk real estate and matches the size of my larger laptop for extended work sessions. Normally this travels with the laptop in a large roller suit case luggage.

Overall all three of these external monitors are very useful for my daily commute or a road trip in the car and have their purpose.

REVIEW: Costco Danby Window Air Conditioner $289

I bought an Costco Danby 12,000 BTU Window Air Conditioner for $289. I will be unboxing and reviewing this unit. There are similar 12,000 BTU window air conditioners online: ( https://amzn.to/379Dei6 ) I also bought the Costco De’Longhi Portable Air Conditioner ( https://amzn.to/31ezWtWp ) for $469 and a Toshiba 10,000 btu air conditioner. There are similar Portable Air Conditioners online .

I helped my land lord replace a broken 10 year old window ac unit only to get another one. If you want to get air conditioner and you either rent or have a small room to cool down a portable or a window based air conditioner is the simple solution.

I later helped him putting the AC unit into the wall and took about 8 hours to complete. Window air conditioner is relatively simple:Just unpack and mount. My Land lord wanted to embed and mount it to a wall, which required the to be to be framed. I will save that footage for another video. Dont do the wall mount at home.

Portable Air Conditioner:
Floor unit with wheels and about 12,000 BTU. Easy to install.
PROS:

  • its very simple and easy to setup took me about 15 minutes to setup
  • Its on wheels so you can have it in other room or for storage.
  • They are relatively quiet and refined.
  • Can work on vertical or horizontal windows.
  • May have heating and dehumidfying abilities for year round use.

CONS:

  • You need an window to exhaust out the hot air
  • You need an power outlet close to the window
  • It takes up floor space
  • Pricier than window units

Window Air Conditioners:
The window air conditioner took about 30 min to hour to place on the window and mount the hanging screw and side panels. The hard part is prepping and cleaning the window prior to mounting it.
PROS:

  • Pretty simple to setup – secures to the window.
  • Saves floor space. Some people install them onto the wall to save even more space
  • Lower cost than a portable or a larger home install.
  • Lasts for years… my last window a/c unit lasted 8-10 years before the fan went out.

CONS:

  • Need to have a vertical opening window
  • Sticks out the window
  • For off season, may need to remove and store.

Comparing Toshiba with the Danby, the front design of the Toshiba looks better, however cost is 100 dollars more. Overall both perform well and could share the same remote IR control.
