REVIEW: Car Interior LED Lights USB Powered – 2 YEARS LATER…

The tried 12 volt LED car lights which are brighter but run very warm. The main reason to buy USB 5volt over 12v was that it was simple easier to get power from the car USB port or 12 volt usb chargers. The USB version also runs cooler than the 12 volt versions.

The USB ambient lights has plenty of light. I mounted them in in my front foot well, glove box, and under my dash storage for more light to find stuff at night. The install was simple and every thing still works after 2 years.

The only problem was the adhesive. The Viden Car LED lights (https://amzn.to/3uaLFVj ) glue released after 2 months in the summer heat. I replaced them with 3M Automotive Super Strength Molding Tape ( https://amzn.to/3o9hNYs ) and it has stayed on for over 18 months.

The 3M Molding Tape ( https://amzn.to/3o9hNYs ) is an self sticking high heat resistant adhesive foam tape for automotive applications but I always keep a roll handy for other projects that rely need good adhesion. It can be used for car interior trim panels, body side molding, emblems and mounting other light duty items.

Overall, I am very happy with the Viden USB powered Car LED lights with ( https://amzn.to/3uaLFVj ) as they turn on when the car powers up and it has a memory of the last color scheme used. So its set and forget.

How To: WATCH MOVIES while Parking – Large Display – No Tools Needed!

If you want to watch movies in a large screen in your car and dont want to modify your car, then this video is for you. I will be adding a 13.3 inch 1080P Monitor with USB C and HDMI ( https://amzn.to/3kakZAG ) onto my car. There are larger sizes displays ini 15 and 16 inches ( https://amzn.to/3lmzKj1 ) however I prefer the 13 is a good compact size can be placed in my laptop bag with my laptop as an external monitor when traveling.

The Kogoda 13.3 Inch External Monitor (https://amzn.to/3kakZAG ) is an IPS Full HD 1080P external laptop monitor . It has USB C inputs for late model smart phones and laptops to use as an external monitor. It has a mini HDMI input. Connection is fast and easy and starts up in less a few seconds. Simply connect the USB power and one of the signal cables.

Its powered by USB C 5 volt at 1.5 – 2A. It comes with a wall power supply, but many USB chargers can output 2A now and so can my car’s built in USB charge port. Getting a 12v socket charge port is easy I use a Anker car charger ( https://amzn.to/3CaPkVS ).

It comes with a plastic cover and fold out stand. The cover is held by magnets so you may want to be careful when handling magnetic hard drives, credit cards, and other sensitive items.

I normally work in my car with my laptop or smart phone so if you are planning to use a bigger screen this is also helpful. You can ofcourse watch movies with this display. It is bright enough to use when the car is parked in the shade or in the sun.

Overall it has been a great addition to my car entertainment while parked. I just set it on my dash board and play a movie while waiting an hour for my car to charge or when waiting in the car. It doesnt require taking apart the car or voiding any warranties. It also uses very little energy so it doesnt impact my car battery much.

REVIEW: 3D MAXpider Custom All Weather Floor Mats – 3 YEARS LATER…

This is a long term review of the 3D MAXpider Custom All Weather Floor Mats ( https://amzn.to/3804iRw ) for Honda Accord, Civic, Honda Clarity and Tesla Model 3 about three years ago (2018 model year).

The 3D MAXpider Custom All Weather Floor Mats ( https://amzn.to/3804iRw ) are custom fit for each of the cars and has benefits of covering the entire foot well of the driver, passenger, and rear seats of the cars. The lip of these floor mats are high which make them good to project your car carpet floors from mud, snow, and liquid spills.

They are also ridged and have a rubberized top and a high friction bottom that resembles fake grass on the bottom of the floor mates. They also use the OEM floor mat lockdowns so they are very secure. The thick multilayer design also helps sound deadens the floor of the car.

The negative aspects of these mats are the rubberized top that attracts fine dust. It is easily washed off with soap and water and a garden hose. if you want it to look clean. The fit has been great for all 3 model of cars I equipped them in, however the 2018 Tesla Model 3 version has a slight pucker on the rear center passenger mat.

Overall i am very satisfied with the custom floor mats as it has saved me hours of time in cleaning and vacuuming.
