Prime Day Deals (Oct 8 and 9)

[AustinBR]

Similar to last Prime Day, I'm setting up a central thread to share any notable deals over the next two days. It sounds like there may be decent deals on fitness equipment and some sporting gear this year. I'll try to quickly post any good deals I find during the day tomorrow.

Right now, a few "Early Prime Day Deals" are available. My feed is seemingly catered to things I've bought or have similar versions of. Notable items are:

1) Dyson V11 (30% off)
2) Kindle (34% off)
3) Levoit Air Purifier (20% off) - I may actually buy this one for the baby's room.
4) Nespresso Coffee Maker (35% off) - I got this on a previous Prime Day deal.
5) Sonicare Toothbrush (44% off + there is a $20 coupon)
6) Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus with motion-activated 1080p HD video (40% off)

I'll monitor tomorrow during the day an share anything notable. If anyone sees deals on coffee, grilling, or bourbon-related products, definitely post and tag me, LOL.

Cheers y'all!

Would a GoPro work?

 

[krotsman]

Yup

The dysons definitely worth it. We’ve have 2 and they both still work! Ones 10 years old and the other is 8 years old

Updating with things I have been considering buying:

1) Eufy Wireless Outdoor Cameras + Base: https://amzn.to/4eX2AAC
2) EcoFlow battery + solar panels: https://amzn.to/3XWaOlU
If anyone has used these, please chime in. My use case would be to run a fridge/freezer during rare power outages. I also have a small 2000w generator, but this would work without needing gas, so that's a plus...
3) 16 Pack of LiquidIV (https://amzn.to/4eS2iuU)
4) Calloway Range Finder that is allegedly accurate up to 1000 yards (https://amzn.to/3U00I26)
5) Deet Spray (https://amzn.to/3zDL1H6) - this is "on sale" but the price is really what it normally is according to my price tracker. Silly Amazon trying to trick us. That being said, this **** is super useful when hiking as ticks hate it.
6) Extension Cord (https://amzn.to/3ZWbr19) - this is 15% ish off, and may be worth throwing in the garage.

I did end up buying this Wyze Cam (https://amzn.to/4dBbG53) to throw in my garage since my wife likes to routinely leave it open.

Have y'all found any worthwhile deals?

 

[krotsman]

You ought to buy the wyze garage door opener, that includes a camera. It's not much more than the cam alone. Works well.

 

[AustinBR]

Yup

Not a bad deal here. Lowest price it's been in the past four months that I can see back to.

I haven't used a gopro since 6 or 7. Have they finally fixed the fisheye issue?

have you used wyze before? i have a few of them. they don't compete with my nest cams for clarity or distance but they do well for things such as in the garage etc. i have a regular v2 fixed outdoor cam, a v2 wireless and a v3 pan cam. the wireless one has a repeater and i get surprisingly long distance on the connectivity. at one time i had it looking over my chicken coop over 225' away. i have also used it in the wooded section of my property for a deer camera. the pan cam i picked up on the last prime day deal for $28 and it is pretty impressive for such an inexpensive camera. the clarity on the v3 is improved over the v2 and it has the ability to track movement or you can control its position from your phone. worth checking out if its on special again.

Yeah, I have the v3 and the v4 just came in today. I've had nothing but good luck with them so far.

I have a bunch of Wyze gear. Been pretty happy with all of it.

I wish there was a made in America equivalent, even if it was 50% more expensive.

So you want 50% more $#!+? Wyze cameras are good for hobbies. If you want to watch your dog sleep on the couch while you're at work, get a Wyze. Or really any wifi camera. Most of them are bad as well. If you want something you might use later to identify someone, wireless is not the way to go. Just my 2 cents based on my many years of dealing with cameras and what they produce.
