Customer Review: The PedEgg..eh, not bad but not great either…
I bought this product at my local Walgreens after a girlfriend said she loved hers. My feet are a bit dry, not bad at all, but a bit rough on the heels and balls of my feet, so I thought why not. I tried it out after a bath that night, and while it worked ok, my old foot file (looks like a microplane grater) worked just as well (if not better) for only $1.59 compared to the $10 for the egg…I didn’t have a problem with mess, I knew to keep the egg upright, and it wasn’t difficult for me to get the top off to empty it.

Overall, it was not what I’d call a failed product, but I won’t be recommending it or buying it as a gift for anyone…

Customer Review: Sp-egg-tacular
I’ve had problems with thick calluses and cracking skin on my heels and big toe for a long time. I’ve tried pumice stones, files, and scrubs with little effect for a lot of effort. I was skeptical about the Ped Egg, but I gave it a try and it worked amazingly well for me!

It looks like a little microplane grater for your feet. I like the way it’s made to cup in your hand while you’re using it, and that it has a little base/cover to keep the blade safe in a drawer.

With very light pressure moving back and forth, it devoured my calluses in record time. Be sure to use on dry skin as directed, and don’t try to muscle it too much. I highly recommend lotion and socks after using it to moisturize the newly liberated skin.

It catches most of the shavings, unless you turn it over. I did my feet over the sink so it wasn’t a problem for me. I don’t think of a pedicure as an ‘anywhere’ task, so I don’t really see the loose shavings as a problem. If you hold it by the sides and pry the blade part out from the top then it’s fairly easy to empty. The emery file that sticks to the bottom might be a nice touch, but I don’t foresee using it. I don’t know yet how long the blade will be effective, but it has worked so well that I’ll spring for the replacement blades without a murmur.

Technuity L91BP-8 Battery, Lithium Aa Photo Battery
All of Energizer e2 Lithium batteries’ advantages combine to make them the World’s Best AA batteries in high tech devices. First, they are the longest lasting AA batteries in high-tech devices, bar none. Second, both the Energizer e2 Lithium AA are 33 percent lighter than their alkaline counterparts. The increased portability afforded the user make them ideal for travel and situations where every ounce counts. Third, Energizer e2 Lithium batteries perform well in extreme temperatures, allowing digital cameras, flashes, CD players or MP3 players to work from the Arctic to the Sahara. Lastly, Energizer e2 Lithium batteries have a shelf life of up to 15 years vs. 7 years with ordinary alkaline, guaranteeing that they will perform when needed.
Customer Review: Match those batteries with the correct application for best results
The Energizer L91 Lithium AA cell is a fantastic power source. For high-drain applications, it offers great advantages over ordinary alkaline cell and rechargeable NiMH cell. However, it is also very expensive as a disposable battery. So it is important to recognize the strength of L91, and use it only in applications that give you the best results. Otherwise you’ll be wasting your money. According to data sheet published by Energizer, the capacity of the Lithium AA cell (L91) is 3000mAh. This number remains nearly constant with load current. In comparison, the ordinary Alkaline battery (such as the Energizer E91 AA) is rated as 2800mAh, but only at a very light load of 25mA. At a heavy load of 1000mA (typical for a digital camera or flash unit), its capacity drops to below 1000mAh. This number gets even worse at low temperature. At zero degree C and 1000mA load, the L91 can provide about seven times more energy compared to the E91. This is where the marketing claim of “Last up to 7 times longer” comes from. When used in a digital camera at room temperature of 25 degree C, the L91 is more likely to last 3-4 times longer than alkaline. This is enough to justify its price, which is also around 3-4 times higher than alkaline. However, in low-drain applications (such as smoke detector, wireless mouse or remote control) alkaline cells will last just as long at a fraction of the cost. The L91 also contains much higher energy when compared to an ordinary rechargeable NiMH cell such as the Energizer NH15-2500. This is partially due to its higher terminal voltage of 1.5V, which is 20% higher than that for NiMH. Energy stored in NH15-2500 : 2.5Ah * 1.25V = 3.125Wh, Energy stored in L91 : 3Ah * 1.5V = 4.5Wh (44% higher). Higher terminal voltage for L91 is especially advantageous in digital camera applications, because your camera flash will recharge up to 20% faster. An added benefit is that the L91 weighs only 14.5 grams (0.5 oz) each, compared to 30 grams (1 oz) for NiMH. So your camera becomes much lighter. The NH15-2500, like all ordinary NiMH cells, suffers from rapid self-discharge problem. If you charge up a set of those cells and leave them in your camera for a few weeks, you’re likely to be greeted by ‘Low Battery’ sign when you try to take a photo. The new generation of ‘ready-to-use’ NiMH cells such as SANYO eneloop and Rayovac Hybrid solved this problem by having very low self discharge rate. But they have lower capacity of only 2000-2100mAh. Bottom line: If you need AA batteries for a long hiking trip, then L91 is obviously your best choice. For most other situations, I recommend using low self-discharge NiMH cells for lower operating cost.
Customer Review: great for flash
nothing in the digital camera world drains the battery faster than the external flash unit for dSRL. my flash (Canon FX430) takes 4 AA batteries and requires changing perhaps every so often. since 4 AA batteries are kind of heavy to carry in my camera pack, and since the flash unit is absolutely crucial in photography, i cannot afford running out of battery on it! ever since i bought these batteries however i had the peace of mind that my flash won’t die on me, period. the peace of mind allows me to take as many flash photography as i want without any mental burden. i know every time i turn it on it will be ready to go. amazing.

Customer Review: Diet Power WORKS as long as you do
I have been using Diet Power on and off for the last 3 years. The first time I used it I dropped 50 pounds in about 6 months but it was NOT EASY. It takes discipline and lots of working out. I am not by nature a disciplined person, so it took some getting used to. Truth be told, I gained it all back because I stopped using Diet Power and got into old habits. I am now working on losing it again, and am down 15 pounds over three weeks. Diet Power does not do the work for you, and the information you get from it is only as good as the information you provide. It calculates your Metabolic Rate (which is also the number of calories you must consume to maintain your current weight). It then provides you with a calorie budget that is well below your metabolic rate. As long as you log your food faithfully and honestly and stay within your calorie budget YOU WILL LOSE weight. It is based on scientific fact. I will admit the program takes some getting used to, and if you plan to use it seriously, invest in a food scale, because you need to be very precise. What I like about it is that it doesn’t judge and it doesn’t restrict any food. While in a sense you can “Eat anything you want” you do need to stay within your daily calorie budget. You will quickly realize however that while you CAN eat ice cream for example, if you do, you will use up your calorie budget VERY fast. But if you have a sweet tooth and cant live without a scoop of Ice Cream, GO FOR IT! It won’t kill you and as long as you stay within your budget, again, YOU WILL LOSE WEIGHT! Its not a miracle. Its not a gimmick. Diet Power works, but you have to do the heavy lifting.
Customer Review: Not for Weight Watcher’s but has some good features
I downloaded the trial version because they said on their website that it worked with the Weight Watcher’s diet and many other diets. When you fill in your profile, it has a place to mark which diet you are using, but that is about as far as that goes. There is no way to add point values to food, therefore no way to track your points. So it was useless for my particular needs. However, out of all the programs I have tried, it was the easiest to start using. They have easy to follow videos on their website to help you get started. I also liked that it tells you when you are low or high in a certain nutrient (compared to the RDA). It would have helped track my chronically low magnesium, iron, and vitamin A. If you want software to track your calorie and nutrient intake and suggest your daily calorie budget, I think this would work really well. It does not, however, do all they suggest.
