Eagle Eyes Blade NL Review

With LED headlights and streetlights getting brighter and brighter, night time driving is straining your eyes more than ever before. To help solve this problem Eagle Eyes has a Night-Lite lineup of glasses for night time driving.

I picked up the Blade NL as its lens wrap around your field of view. They really do feel like the glasses disappear, which helps limit visual distractions like light leakage and blind spots caused by a frame.

The yellow non-polarized lens filter cuts down the blue light. So your sight will become more uniformed to shades of yellow. Those moments of being blinded by oncoming LED headlights are greatly reduced.

The frame fits well on my face. It’s polycarbonate with nose grips is and soft temple tips. This helps for long night road trips. They don’t feel heavy on the nose or ears.

Considering all those factors, it’s a no-brainer you should pick up Eagle Eyes Blade NL and protect your eyes during night time driving.

Silk Wallet Slayer Vol 1 Review

I’ve been using Silk phone cases (Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S9) for a several years now and there’s a reason for that. I’ve dropped my phone many times while wearing this case and my phone is fine.

Most recently I dropped my Galaxy S10 face down onto concrete. I thought my phone would be destroyed. I picked it up and there wasn’t a scratch on the screen.

The body of the case feels very unified. The back is a soft and smooth rubber while the edges have a grippy texture.

I love using the card holder to place parking passes for easy and quick access.

On Silk’s website you can add artwork to help flare up your case. You can also print your own design to make it truly unique.

SofaBaton R2 Roku Remote Review

Almost every review that I’ve read for Roku products complains that you can’t program the remote. The SofaBaton R2 Roku Remote fixes that issue.

At first glance the SofaBaton R2 Roku Remote looks and feels very similar to a typical Roku remote. The bottom portion functions how you’d expect. The top portion is the programmable part.

Programming its buttons is very simple. The included instructions are easy to understand.

The SofaBaton R2 Roku Remote includes 13 programmable buttons. So each could launch different channels, turn on/off your TV, soundbar, etc. It’s a Universal IR Remote. It’s not compatible with Bluetooth or Wifi-enabled devices. It does require direct line of sight with a Roku player to work.

It’s compatible with Roku 1, Roku 2, Roku 3, Roku 4, Roku Premier+, Roku Express+, Roku Ultra. It’s not compatible with Roku sticks and Roku TV.

So if you have multiple devices and are tired of using multiple remotes to control them, the SofaBaton R2 Roku Remote could be the perfect solution.

Captain Marvel ScreenX Showing Review

Throughout my years of movie going, I’ve experienced many gimmicks. Generally, they’re fun reasons to stop watching Netflix and head down to my local theater. Have these gimmicks ever saved a movie from being terrible? No. But at least they’ve given me fun and lasting memories.

At Comic Con in Hall H I experienced my first three screen movies. However these experiences were baked around trailers/previews. It was breathtaking to see this style added to trailers so when I heard Captain Marvel offered such a treat I jumped at it.

The format is called ScreenX and it offers a 270 degree view of a film. It’s like VR without the headset. The front screen projects the film while the sides offer peripheral views. The side screens feel stretched, blurred, and darker than the front screen. I guess this style helps you focus on the front screen.

Specifically for Captain Marvel not all scenes had this format. The vast majority of the film is without the side screens. So every now and then the side screens turn on and off. This is where the vast distraction comes from. If the side screens always projected video I might be able to focus on the front movie screen more so.

I do think that this format is much better than 3D. Not having to wear heavy glasses only to see blurry images is a massive plus.

My hopes would be that in future maybe the side screens could offer more valuable footage than what Captain Marvel did. Also it would be very cool to mix in some D-BOX seats so the seats move with the film. That combo of ScreenX with D-BOX would be something very special.

For now ScreenX is a promising format, and I hope more movies support adding extra content to the side screens for the full-length of the film.

Eagle Eyes 3in1 Vintage Round Glasses Review

Digital light lens.

I think by now many of us have heard someone say something about blue light and how it’s harming our eyes. Probably not many of us have acted upon this news.

But what if I were to tell you that blue light is all around us 24/7? Don’t you think your eyes deserve some relief? I’m not suggesting you try to stick to a New Years Resolution of using your smartphone for less hours, as we know you won’t.

You could though use these Eagle Eyes 3in1 Vintage Round glasses. They help prevent eyestrain whether you’re looking at a computer screen, night time driving, or during the daytime to block blue light and UVA & UVB rays.

What’s included in the box.

Your first question is do they actually work? Well Eagle Eye glasses use NASA-certified technology. So yes they do work. I spend a lot of time starring at my Surface Studio 2‘s giant screen and immediately I noticed a difference. The screen looks just as clear, but my eyes feel as if they are less strained. The glasses are super light so I could easily imagine wearing them for a full shift of computer work.

I have experienced problems with being outside at night with LED car headlights or LED street lights. Running around my block or driving my car there’s a heck of a lot of glare. I constantly am putting my hand up to help block oncoming car’s headlights. The Night-Lites glasses removed the harshness from these light sources. In a way it reminded me of what night life was like 15 years ago before LED lights were even on the streets. It was still just as bright as ever, but night got its warm tone light back.

The hook is in the middle. Silver square magnets on the sides.

Adding the second pair of lenses is easy to do. Hook either the Polarized Lens or Night-Lites on your frame and they’ll magnetize on the sides. This makes the lens stick on the frame. This system is very discrete. I don’t think a person would notice that your wearing two layers of lens.

There’s no reason why you won’t be satisfied with Eagle Eyes 3in1 Vintage Round Glasses. They seem like a great way to keep your eyes healthy.
