Takeaway: Easy to set up, good clarity and reproduction, nice range, decent volume.Easy to set up, good clarity and reproduction, nice range, decent volume.

You'll receive the microphone, a USB receiver, a 20" male-to-male audio cable, and an instruction manual. The microphone has a metal body with built-in foam screen beneath the metal grille. It measures 10" long and weighs 9oz (11oz w/batteries installed). It requires 2 AA batteries which are not included. The USB receiver can plug into any USB power source like a computer, laptop, or power bank. When used with a PC, the receiver is plug-and-play and delivers the audio through the USB port; you do not need to use the audio cable. However, if you experience latency issues, it's recommended to use the audio cable with the microphone-in port. I was able to start recording with the mic in under a minute.

When compared to my regular recording mic the Yeti, the Fifine mic was good, but was thin sounding in the lower registers. My voice sounded brighter than usual with a bit of a nasal tonality. Also, when speaking from about 4" from the mic, the volume level was quite a bit lower than speaking from that same distance into the Yeti mic (note that the Yeti has a gain dial built in while the Fifine mic gain would have to be adjust in post-processing). In general, the mic performs best when you speak directly into the top from close range, about 1-2".

The LCD screen displays the channel and frequency you're on as well as remaining battery life. The mic has 25 frequency channels from 672.50 to 684.50 adjusting in 0.50 increments. This helps you avoid interference with other equipment and mics. The LCD will dim after 3 minutes to save power. The mic also worked well with portable speakers to convert them into PA systems. The one I use has a 50 Watt main driver and the volume level was fine without too much static/ambient noise being picked up. The only thing is you'll need a separate USB power source unless your speaker also has power bank capabilities (and it needs to have an AUX-in port). I was able to get the sound to transmit from about 25 feet away and through two walls, though the sound did degrade somewhat in that configuration.

Overall, the microphone works well and has very clear sound, comparable to the Yeti USB mic, though slightly quieter and a less dynamic reproduction range. You do have to keep your mouth pretty close to the top of the mic, and I recommend a pop filter if you've got it on a mic stand. It works great as part of a portable system and is simple to use.

This light is cutely egg-shaped and is made of plastic with a solid white base and a translucent white top. On the front you have the Vava logo and a small indicator LED and on the back you have the charging port hidden behind a rubber door. The unit takes about 5 hours to fully charge and the LED blinks blue quickly while charging. Once fully charged can last for up to 80 hours or about 10 consecutive nights at 8 hours each. What's nice about this night light is that once it is charged, it is portable and can be placed in different rooms and doesn't need to be near an outlet. It's also IP65 water resistant rated and is able to get wet. On the bottom

Silkworld Ice Silk Briefs Review

Silkworld Ice Silk Briefs Review Buy it at Amazon: Silkworld Ice Silk Briefs [Affiliate Link] Takeaway: Sheer, revealing, soft and comfortable, very low profile and lightweight with enhancement bands in front. You'll receive 8 pairs of underwear in different colors: blue, orange, yellow, red, hot pink, black, white and cyan. The underwear is made from a sheer nylon spandex blend with a mesh weave. The front pouch is framed by elastic bands and stretches to accommodate larger endowments, but does require some adjustments and manual finagling; it could use some more room in general. However, the bands lift and accentuate your package for a fuller look. While there's a seam down the middle of the pouch, it's smooth and you can barely feel it. The waist band is 1" wide and stretches quite a bit. Note that the more the material stretches, the more transparent it becomes. In back, you'll get full coverage for your backside, and it will stretch to accommodate your curve
