Hi there, I highly suggest you do not use the phone holder shelf as it exposes the live plug of the adapter which obviously can expose you to mains voltage and perhaps short circuits that would cause a house fire.
Hey man what you can do is go into your channel settings and blacklist common words they use like prize and such so comments using those words will be automatically held for review. If you do it right you should be able to just about eliminate all of them.
I had always avoided highlighting and taking notes in my textbooks because I wanted to recoup the any cost I could be selling them. Those sticky notes are amazing. Too bad I’m not in school to enjoy them haha.
Didn't think the transparent sticky pad would be too useful but they are very useful. Especially with highlighting words in books. Something like that would've been really helpful when I was in college.
I have expensive textbooks for college and I don't really want to mark them up, especially if I make a mistake in my markings. The transparent sticky notes are an awesome idea. This will be the first time I actually buy a product after seeing the review! Thanks! I will have to self experiment with the kind of pens I use, incase they smudge with the different ink types. Changing to a different pen won't be an issue if just for note taking. Thanks again! I never knew I needed something that I never knew existed in the first place.👍
I 100% agree. I’ve been using sticky notes for note taking for a long time, this will actually be quite beneficial to me since I’ll actually be able to read what’s underneath now
A suggestion for stationery products such as the sticky notes - would be great to see these tested with ballpoint, rollerball and gel ink pens in the future, as these all act quite differently! Fountain pens are more niche, but at least covering those three would be very useful. Thanks for showcasing those interesting translucent notes!
All in the inks baby, really big on my diamine imperial purple but it has a bit more of a smudge issue than others I've tried. Would be interesting to see how quickly it writes and dries on plastic like that.
in addition to that, after you made notes on the sticky notes, try CLOSING THE BOOK and leave it that way for a while. when the pages gets compressed, usually the opposite page can get ink blots.
Asking a general product reviewer to test stationary to its full extent is unreasonable. Should we have him take apart all the electronics to make sure they don't have faulty wiring too? Measure how much power they take out of an outlet? It's an 8 dollar sticky note!
I've actually bought the candle lighter previously. One use for it that you neglected to mention where it is perfectly suited is lighting fireworks. Higher winds won't matter and quick lighting is very important.
For future Q&A or answer in comments.. you say a lot that a product fixes a problem no one has. Is there a problem you have that you wish someone made a product for?
I have a version of the candle lighter with a built-in light that points toward the sparking arch. It is something I have used regularly to light multi things over the last three years. From candles to campfires to burners to pilot lights. With the built-in flashlight, it is great for many things like overnight camping, hiking, and travel trips.
I usually keep my car keys upstairs rather than downstairs. I know of a few people who was burgled whilst they slept and they took off with valuables and cars because they left the car keys downstairs.
Okay, my mind is blown with those sticky-pads for highlighting! I'm not even in school anymore and can see how useful those would be! I hope the libraries and book stores at schools/colleges keep them on hand for sale so studentd have quick access to them (though this also being said, these places also often sell them above regular price, but if you need them in a pinch and don't want to damage your books, they'll do. Maybe sell the pads individually for 50 cents each or something). Hope this can help with getting more value back if the texbooks are sold off, considering they already cost an arm and a leg to buy them.
@@Freakinreviews I work in a library. This is such a great idea. Unfortunately, we're not allowed to sell anything - just replace the books people ruin by writing in them. 😥
the sticky notes seemed so bland at the start but seeing how how they work when you use them as bookmarkers/highlighters in combination with the freedom to write or scratch through whatever was really impressive for such a simple item, kinda gives yoou the ability to give a second layer to anything you put it on
If you could get in the right position to light a cigarette with the electronic lighter , it would certainly light a cigarette. (although they do make smaller versions of that device for cigarettes.)
I love those post-it notes! I’d send those to my to my nephews who are in college. Those would have been fabulous for selling books back to the bookstore. If you forget one or two, the next person can just peel them off and it’s as good as new. I do have one of those rechargeable arc candle lighters and I love it! It’s a pain trying to light a candle with a butane lighter only to realize it’s empty and you forgot to replace it the last time you realized it was empty.
I had to have my furnace repaired last winter and the repairman used one of those lighters to relight the pilot light. So if a professional uses one, they must be a good product. Those sticky notes were a good item. I use gel pens so that may be what smears, couldn't really tell if any pen you used was a gel pen.
Normal BBQ lighters tend to stop working if not used over the winter for me. So I thought it was because they were cheap. I bought an expensive one, same problem. I reverted to using matches for BBQs but this might be worth it.
I'm not an electrician or anything, but when you put the plug shelf on the metal prongs and plugged it in, my brain said "Now who am I gonna watch for product reviews?". Not advised to ever risk electrocution lol.
That is definitely a risk. But bigger risk is probably prongs heating up and making plastic catch fire. Pretty sure he is careful about how he pulls out the plug
Really would love to see a Magnetic Key Holder update in the upcoming weeks to see if it's holding up instead of waiting a year for the usual monthly update videos lol
Well, you just cost me $11.33 CAN because I had to order the transparent sticky notes. LOL Cost a little more in Canada, but I think they will be well worth it. I plan on using them in cookbooks to add notes to recipes, this way, I won't have to mark up the pages themselves. Great idea! I would have ordered the cloud keyholder, but that is $18.60 here on Amazon Canada and that is just more than I am willing to spend on something like that. The phone holder is a nice idea, but my phone has wireless charging, like my 2 phones before it, and my PC has a wireless charging pad built into the case, so I have no use for it. I really like these cheap gadget videos, I can usually find something that is really useful. Keep them coming! 👍
I don't like the plug/phone holder thing... Mainly because it does weigh down the plug and after a while your outlet will probably be screwed up and your plugs will be falling out without the holder there. I would think that would speed up the process of ruining your 2 pronge outlets for sure lol
Thanks for these types of reviews. I am getting poorer every day, and spending more than $10 on anything will soon be a distant dream. Let's Go Brandon!
For the first product; did you notice any smearing on the opposite page after closing the book? That would by my main concern as the sticky notes looked like plastic. In my mind I image the smooth plastic would easily rub off on the more rough paper when the pressure of a closed book is applied (especially if moved around). But again, thanks for taking the time to share all these innovative products with us!
With the smeary pens, they are probably using gel pens. They smear badly, but are recommended for writing checks (they are very hard to erase from check paper). But I use regular pens when just writing notes, etc - so those new sticky notes will be a great thing for me to use. I'm also going to look for the candle lighter and maybe the microwave stacker. When I'm visiting my dad (about to turn 92), he likes to microwave food for us but he does it one at a time. I'm sure he would love to have one of those. Thank you!! 😊
Hi love the channel.been a fan for ages now.before u even demonstrated the candle lighter I went on amazon and ordered 1 for a friend who loves candles.she has been looking after me while recovering from a heart attack and then covid that I got in hospital.all the best from Scotland
I have a propane lighter similar to the one used here, but it is flexible just like the RONXS. I can also light things like campfires, charcoal grills, deep candle lanterns, and many other things with it, unlike a lighter that is only designed to light candles and the occasional gas stove. Take that RONXS.
That lighter made it so that I can light scented candles and birthday candles again! Having no more strength in my fingers I couldn’t use the regular lighters anymore.
I love innovation and these things are a great insight into human creativity, and sometimes weird thinking. 😊 Always interesting though. Oh, and yeah, the scammers are onto your commenters. 😮
The phone holder is the worst one. It's more of an outlet tester then anything. If anything you plug in won't stay in place. It's time to replace your outlet. Stay away from residential grade outlets!
As soon as I saw the plate stacker, I thought of those tiny tables inside pizza boxes to keep the lid off of the cheese. Now ai’m wondering if you could use that to stack plates… 🤔😆
probably what it was based off of. I wonder if it was made for larger microwaves, since the legs barely sit on a smaller one, and if there are smaller versions of the stacker for the small/medium plates/bowls
All of the products seem pretty cool, hours. Pretty impressed with the first product. The highlighter paper stuff. I'm not a book guy but I could see that will be real useful for kids or even adults who's going to college or even whatever kind of desk work you do with books. It doesn't damage the book and great on top of the sticky note. So that's pretty useful. I was surprised how expensive the phone charger holder thing is. The lighter was cheaper than that lol. And that seems like a basic piece of plastic with a hinge lol. Yeah if they make maybe two or three different sizes of the stack microwave thing that'll be pretty good. Lot of microwaves got different size, rotating dishes. And the phone holder again. Not too sure if I trust how it might wear and tear the sockets or outlets for having that weight. Looks like it might be better with those different shape of bricks or chargers. The ones you have to put the phone holder on the wall first then plug it in so it's secured just a little bit.
The Bobino is a nope-a-rino from me. I am deftly paranoid about NEMA connectors having exposed prongs, this especially makes my brain itchy thinking about it. I am sure with GB plugs it would be _great_ though, since the squared-off prongs allow for better fitment so long the socket isn't clapped out.
If you decide you need to take the adhesive attached cloud from your wall, try using a hair dryer. It usually will release adhesive from the wall (or stickers from a glass or plastice surface, etc., etc.). You may have to buy your own adhesive to reattach it, though.
I would like more tets on the microwave stacker please. Usually these technically work, but because the foods spread around so much it requires much more time to properly heat, so much so that just heating the individual dishes is faster. Can you do some time vs temp tests? Does it create excessive cold pockets in the food? Otherwise it seems like a great idea! Thanks!!!
Oh I remember that picture of the Russian kids standing around the sunlight in that psychology book, circa 1980something....great video as always James 👍
Someone explain to me please why is the lighter so great? I get that it works great WHEN CHARGED. My lighters stay in storage until I need to light a candle usually if electric is off. This won’t help if I don’t remember to keep the other charged. Right?
The arc lighter will light a cigarette without any problem - there are arc cigarette lighters ;) I bought an arc fireplace and oven lighter a few years ago - something akin to your candle lighter minus the flexible neck (but looks better with it's imitation wood design) - and it has worked like charm. One charge is enough for at least a month, it has never failed on me. One of my best buys of the past few year I must say. After years of daily use it hasn't even got charred or discolored... looks like it was bought yesterday.
those sticky notes are great to keep books clean. many times i find books that were used in school like novels, and personal text books. i even find people writing stuff in the middle margin in a bible. these would keep the books clean for the next reader or user
Can you review ice blocks? I need ice for my coolers often and it’s getting costly. I ran across ice blocks online but I’m skeptical if they work as advertised. Thanks
Those lighters ruined my wedding unity candle ceremony lol. Someone told me they were better to light the unity candles in case it rained, so we bought them and wouldn’t you know it was drizzly on our wedding day! When we went to light the candles it was barely drizzling but the lighters wouldn’t light the candles! To break the awkward silence, I made a joke saying “aw shit is this a sign?” stupid lighters 😂
I skipped forward during the sticky notes and thought you highlighted a page as a comparison, then you removed the clear note. Would absolutely be something I grab if I choose to go back to school.
I had the insert for my zippo that was rechargeable and worked like the candle lighter. It sucked though and I couldn’t do crap with it. I now have the butane insert for it and it works like a charm.
I like that electric lighter as it seems safer than the regular long lighter you were using. For example, when you stuck it down in the very long vase to get to the candle, that put that large flame and your hand in an enclosed space, which could be dangerous. I doubt you'd actually hurt yourself, James, but someone else might. I rarely need to light something, so I only have a single, regular lighter from the days of rooming with my sibling, who smoked. But that small lighter makes me scared when trying to light 3-wick candles or longer candles (I also have that tall white one, lol). And I don't want to have to deal with refueling the other kind you had. So, I might get this electric lighter instead. Thanks for these videos, love seeing the gadgets I might not think of on an ordinary shopping trip but then realize how it could make a task easier.
I'm probably going to get that lighter. Rechargeable is a great selling point when you've had to buy multiple of the other ones. Guess it comes down to how good the battery in it is and how many recharges it gets.
I have a portable one with a telescoping head/neck. It's really handy in many situations, but you really need to get the angle right when compared with a regular lighter.
Electricians everywhere are cringing on the phone holder. Outlets are not designed to bear weight (niether are the chargers). You'll wear them out faster, and a charger partially out of the socket could be a fire risk.
Phone holder is perfect as long as you have 3 pins. 2 pins if round have better holding than flat pins but I still personally didnt keep mine. Passed it on to family as i just didnt get on with it myself.
The electric candle lighters will most certainly light a cigarette/joint/blunt just fine but if you want to smoke a bowl you will need a more traditional lighter.
With regards to the transparent note pads… I wonder if the negative reviews used a gel ink pen? I could be wrong, but it didn’t look like you tested one of those.
Bobino seems dangerous to use. On an older outlet it could easily partially pull the power adaptor out exposing the prongs. If its that big of a deal get a cardboard box to put your phone on.
I absolutely love my electric candle lighter, it's so durable, saves you refills, doesn't explode on you, lights so many candles before you recharge. Good ones even stay charged long in the drawer. Just too narrow for lighting cigarettes etc. But you shouldn't smoke anyway. 😄♥️ The stacker should fit on the rotating tray perfectly being the simple plastic tray it is. 😕

Just an FYI, you can put your phone on a night stand and wireless charger, 😁
2:30 - in a few years time, James will open this book, see the scribbled notes and think, 'What does this MEAN???'
And you have just summed up my note taking in any class ever😀
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I had always avoided highlighting and taking notes in my textbooks because I wanted to recoup the any cost I could be selling them. Those sticky notes are amazing. Too bad I’m not in school to enjoy them haha.
My thoughts exactly!

I didn't expect much either, but I was pleasantly surprised!

I 100% agree. I’ve been using sticky notes for note taking for a long time, this will actually be quite beneficial to me since I’ll actually be able to read what’s underneath now
I'm not in school anymore, but this was my first thought, when he started slapping them on books.
I hope it went well!
A suggestion for stationery products such as the sticky notes - would be great to see these tested with ballpoint, rollerball and gel ink pens in the future, as these all act quite differently! Fountain pens are more niche, but at least covering those three would be very useful. Thanks for showcasing those interesting translucent notes!
I can agree, I'm in a situation where I'm taking notes lately. Some ball points are fantastic and some are garbage, same goes with gel pens.
All in the inks baby, really big on my diamine imperial purple but it has a bit more of a smudge issue than others I've tried. Would be interesting to see how quickly it writes and dries on plastic like that.
Also, have these pads and they smear when I write on the actual pad itself
in addition to that, after you made notes on the sticky notes, try CLOSING THE BOOK and leave it that way for a while.
when the pages gets compressed, usually the opposite page can get ink blots.
Asking a general product reviewer to test stationary to its full extent is unreasonable. Should we have him take apart all the electronics to make sure they don't have faulty wiring too? Measure how much power they take out of an outlet?
It's an 8 dollar sticky note!

That is a wonderful additional feature!
I usually keep my car keys upstairs rather than downstairs. I know of a few people who was burgled whilst they slept and they took off with valuables and cars because they left the car keys downstairs.
For the charger sliding situation you can wrap a rubber band around the charging brick to create a lip so the stand doesn't slide
I love these videos with the various smaller, everyday objects!!!! Rather than the others were you show one big thing to the fullest extent.
Okay, my mind is blown with those sticky-pads for highlighting! I'm not even in school anymore and can see how useful those would be!

also may be able to reuse the sticky notes by wiping with alcohol
Love cheap gadget videos!!
Love is always good
I have had that exact electric lighter for a couple of years and love it. Light candles every day with it.
That is wonderful!
the sticky notes seemed so bland at the start but seeing how how they work when you use them as bookmarkers/highlighters in combination with the freedom to write or scratch through whatever was really impressive for such a simple item, kinda gives yoou the ability to give a second layer to anything you put it on
If you could get in the right position to light a cigarette with the electronic lighter , it would certainly light a cigarette. (although they do make smaller versions of that device for cigarettes.)
We have one of those electric candle lighters. We were very surprised by how well it worked. We use it a lot and the charge screens to hold.
So far I like it!
I love those post-it notes! I’d send those to my to my nephews who are in college. Those would have been fabulous for selling books back to the bookstore. If you forget one or two, the next person can just peel them off and it’s as good as new.
I do have one of those rechargeable arc candle lighters and I love it! It’s a pain trying to light a candle with a butane lighter only to realize it’s empty and you forgot to replace it the last time you realized it was empty.
I have that arc lighter and it's still going strong after 2 years. Nice product.
I had to have my furnace repaired last winter and the repairman used one of those lighters to relight the pilot light. So if a professional uses one, they must be a good product.
Those sticky notes were a good item. I use gel pens so that may be what smears, couldn't really tell if any pen you used was a gel pen.

I bet gel pens will smudge on the sticky notes. They smudge on anything glossy.
Well, you just cost me $11.33 CAN because I had to order the transparent sticky notes. LOL
Cost a little more in Canada, but I think they will be well worth it. I plan on using them in cookbooks to add notes to recipes, this way, I won't have to mark up the pages themselves. Great idea!

I really like the camera angle in the candle and the nicely timed edit when you lit it. Very nice James! 😊👍
Thank you! That was actually one of my favorite moments to film!

4 useful gadgets and the Bobino. That one's garbage.
I agree. It looked way too flimsy.
The plate stacker is interesting but one needs to measure their mw turnplate first.
I like how it was a camera from below then it magically turned into a candle from above 😄
For the first product; did you notice any smearing on the opposite page after closing the book? That would by my main concern as the sticky notes looked like plastic.

On the transparent notes you could have tried a gel pen to see if it smudges.
All of the products seem pretty cool, hours. Pretty impressed with the first product. The highlighter paper stuff. I'm not a book guy but I could see that will be real useful for kids or even adults who's going to college or even whatever kind of desk work you do with books.

As comedian George Carlin once mentioned Americans buy shit they don't need with money they don't have on credit. lol
The little clouds I've had them for 5 years now and still holding strong.
Great video. Nice mix of gadgets. I have the arc lighter, but mine also has an led light. Same price.
The transparent sticky notes are so cool, those would have been so handy for rental textbooks
The candle lighter doubles as a mild cattle prod (not recommended)
That phone holder is a gonna be a no for me.
The Bobino is a nope-a-rino from me. I am deftly paranoid about NEMA connectors having exposed prongs, this especially makes my brain itchy thinking about it. I am sure with GB plugs it would be _great_ though, since the squared-off prongs allow for better fitment so long the socket isn't clapped out.

This video was fun to watch. I really enjoy the videos where you cover multiple items. 😊
I feel like the phone holder is designed with european style plugs in mind
I have a similar lighter and I like it a lot. It is basically a mini stun gun. It can give you quite a shock if you touch the arc.
For those port-its, you might not have hD water-based pens? Try Gel Pens as they are notorious for not working on such things.
I would like more tets on the microwave stacker please. Usually these technically work, but because the foods spread around so much it requires much more time to properly heat, so much so that just heating the individual dishes is faster.

I wonder if those colored gel pens smudge or the popular felt pens?
Those lighters ruined my wedding unity candle ceremony lol. Someone told me they were better to light the unity candles in case it rained, so we bought them and wouldn’t you know it was drizzly on our wedding day! When we went to light the candles it was barely drizzling but the lighters wouldn’t light the candles! To break the awkward silence, I made a joke saying “aw shit is this a sign?” stupid lighters 😂
I skipped forward during the sticky notes and thought you highlighted a page as a comparison, then you removed the clear note.
Would absolutely be something I grab if I choose to go back to school.
If ain’t broken and still working well then no need to get the latest phone just saying🙅🏻♀️📲💯
I had the insert for my zippo that was rechargeable and worked like the candle lighter. It sucked though and I couldn’t do crap with it. I now have the butane insert for it and it works like a charm.
I like that electric lighter as it seems safer than the regular long lighter you were using. For example, when you stuck it down in the very long vase to get to the candle, that put that large flame and your hand in an enclosed space, which could be dangerous. I doubt you'd actually hurt yourself, James, but someone else might. I rarely need to light something, so I only have a single, regular lighter from the days of rooming with my sibling, who smoked. But that small lighter makes me scared when trying to light 3-wick candles or longer candles (I also have that tall white one, lol). And I don't want to have to deal with refueling the other kind you had.
So, I might get this electric lighter instead. Thanks for these videos, love seeing the gadgets I might not think of on an ordinary shopping trip but then realize how it could make a task easier.
I love mine, have had it about 2 years, same exact one.
I'm probably going to get that lighter. Rechargeable is a great selling point when you've had to buy multiple of the other ones. Guess it comes down to how good the battery in it is and how many recharges it gets.
I really like it, I’ve had mine about 2 years, the charge lasts a long time
I have a portable one with a telescoping head/neck. It's really handy in many situations, but you really need to get the angle right when compared with a regular lighter.
Candle lighter does work for cigarettes' and cigars. My husband has stolen mine many times.
Electricians everywhere are cringing on the phone holder. Outlets are not designed to bear weight (niether are the chargers). You'll wear them out faster, and a charger partially out of the socket could be a fire risk.
Should have used the lighter with a Cigarette and still just told us if it worked or not.. Guess I’m gonna have to buy one to find out😂😏
CANDLE CAM!!!!!!!!! Loved it. Good thing I didn't enjoy my gummies from the "candy" shop before that. 😆
The transparent notes are pretty cool. But, the phone holder looks like something to buy from the Dollar Tree, not pay $10 for.
Phone holder is perfect as long as you have 3 pins. 2 pins if round have better holding than flat pins but I still personally didnt keep mine. Passed it on to family as i just didnt get on with it myself.
Applebee's gonna invest billions on the microwave food stacker
The phone holder will eventually fall behind the charger shroud and short out, possibly causing a fire.
The electric candle lighters will most certainly light a cigarette/joint/blunt just fine but if you want to smoke a bowl you will need a more traditional lighter.
Your idea of useful may have been... well... beaten into submission over the years :D
The phone holder is pretty bad btw, overtime it will bend the legs of the charger, at least the European ones. Which is a hazard
With regards to the transparent note pads… I wonder if the negative reviews used a gel ink pen? I could be wrong, but it didn’t look like you tested one of those.
The phone holder is the most pointless product in the history of mankind.
Said cruise ships and hotels
Bobino seems dangerous to use. On an older outlet it could easily partially pull the power adaptor out exposing the prongs. If its that big of a deal get a cardboard box to put your phone on.
I absolutely love my electric candle lighter, it's so durable, saves you refills, doesn't explode on you, lights so many candles before you recharge. Good ones even stay charged long in the drawer. Just too narrow for lighting cigarettes etc. But you shouldn't smoke anyway. 😄♥️
The stacker should fit on the rotating tray perfectly being the simple plastic tray it is. 😕
We need another iteration of dumb products that actually work with your daughter
The more food you add to a microwave, the longer it takes to cook. You may find it faster to heat the plates separately.
If you get the candle lighter and are a pet owner, be aware that your dogs may particularly hate the sound!
What a coincidence; I'm about to order that same lighter...to remove static from my vinyl records! Good thing to know it works on candles as well.😆
I’ve had mine about 2 years and it’s still like new, the charge lasts a long time, and recharges quickly. I’m very happy with it!
Haha that is a coincidence, Eradicator!
I love the sticky notes and I use my lighter all the time. Have one for home and trailer.
the coolest product was the sticky notes
I wonder how long the phone holder will stay on the charger adapter before falling off?
6:50 There are arc cigarette lighters out there. So the candle lighter may work.
Thanks for the video. Hope you are doing well !
Blonde question: Is that not a candle taser? It is electric current isn’t it?
