I like Rayovac - But this one is TERRIBLE
919502
I have a number of Rayovacs I have relamped with with LEDs and been very satisfied with their function.

This one, for me, is an unreliable loser.  I ordered this because I wanted a 2-D cell, flat bottom, yellow barrel flashlight.

When it arrived, I inserted two fresh 'D' Duracells and observed the light produced was orange -- not the usual incandescent yellowish glow.  I should have realized this meant it had some poor, internal connection which produced resistance.

I went ahead and swapped out the incandescent bulb for a new LED.  To my surprise, it was not as bright as some 1990s Rayovac flashlights I had relamped with LEDs.  Moreover, the light would not always go on when switched 'on'.  I disassembled & reassembled the flashlight to assure everything was in proper position and tightly seated.  The light would go on but was unevenly bright from one use to the next.  Sometimes, in a single use, its brightness would fluctuate repeatedly.  Sometimes the light would flicker on & off.

At its best, this 2-D cell flashlight, with an LED, was never as bright as either of my old 2-AA Rayovac & Eveready flashlights which had also been relamped with LEDs.

This one is a loser.

I'm a big fan of Aukey's products - I'm typing this review on one of their mechanical keyboard, the Google Pixel I used with this lens is charging via an Aukey adapter, and I've been using their other lenses for months - but this one really let me down. I purchased and the&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/AUKEY-Optic-Pro-iPhone-Lens-High-Clarity-0-2x-238-Field-of-View-Ultra-wide-Angle-Clip-on-Cell-Phone-Camera-Lenses-for-Samsung-Android-Smartphones-iPhone/dp/B018TQTP0C/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">AUKEY Optic Pro iPhone Lens, High Clarity 0.2x 238 Field of View, Ultra wide Angle Clip-on Cell Phone Camera Lenses for Samsung, Android Smartphones, iPhone</a>&nbsp;on the same day, upgrading from&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/AUKEY-Optic-iPhone-Lens-180-Fisheye-Lens-110-Wide-Angle-10x-Macro-Mini-Clip-on-Cell-Phone-Camera-Lenses-Kit-for-Samsung-Android-Smartphones/dp/B014CXK9FQ/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">AUKEY Optic iPhone Lens, 180 Fisheye Lens + 110 Wide Angle + 10x Macro Mini Clip-on Cell Phone Camera Lenses Kit for Samsung, Android Smartphones</a>&nbsp;kit that lives in my bag to go with my upgraded phone. That ultra wide angle lens will see heavy use, this will maybe get pulled out for dramatic effect, but not as a go-to upgrade as an alternative to the phones built in digital zoom.

The lens arrived in a nice printed brown/tan box. In the box was an Aukey circuit board/key sticker, warranty card, lens covers, mounting clip, carabiner, microfiber cleaning cloth, and a semi-rigid zipped carry case the cutouts for the lens and clip. The clip and carry bag were the best parts of this kit. The clip is plastic and metal, cosmetically a step up from any other phone lenses I have owned, and most that I have seen. The hard case is nice, similar to some higher end headphone or action camera cases.

The lens housing appears cases instead of machined and defiantly looks like a step down from their ultra-wide angle lens. The coated glass looks much better than it functions. The clip works well holding the lens to my phone as long as the case is removed - that is par for the course for universal phone lenses. I much prefer this style clip to the smaller ones included with the wide-angle lens, so that is also nice.

On a Google Pixel the pictures suffered from severe focus distortion & chromatic aberrations throughout most of the frame. The center never focused quite right but it was less noticeable. Like other reviewers have said, this lens produces results worse than digital zoom, which is really sad.  One good thing to come out of the distortion is that it gives every image a tilt-shift like effect. If you consider this more like lomo lenses, or Lensbaby - in camera Instagram filter, or another toy camera then this can be fun but as a good way to get closer to your subject is falls flat.

Pros:
Really nice carrying case
Decent Mounting Clamp
Fun Toy Lens

Cons:
Bad Telephoto Lens - Worse than Digital Zoom

I swear by the other pens in this family, but the Sport RT falls terribly short of the quality of the others.

First, the looks aren't as classy (especially the white plastic cap), but they're more compact size is nice, so I can get over that.

On the other hand, you can only use 25% of the ink before it starts to quit writing.  I thought one was just faulty, but it has happened to every one of them since.  I can't begin to state how frustrating it is to have a dozen pens floating around the house with ink in them, but they won't write!

Overall, I still swear by how smooth Jetstreams are and they don't bleed or smear, but stay away from the Sport RT series.  They really are terrible and frustrating pens after the first week of use.

As of late Ive been going back through some of my art supply purchases over the years and reviewing the ones that stood out in order to hopefully help other artists make informed purchases. Unfortunately, while I've enjoyed other offerings from Vallejo, my experience with this primer was actually so awful that I felt the need to post a review to ensure that other artists out there can avoid the problems I experienced with this particular primer.

I enjoy art and sculpture, and over the last few years I've really been digging into physical sculpture in particular, and with it, I've been trying a lot of new tools and materials along the way. One thing I learned was the value of sanding, priming, and then re-sanding sculptures in order to make them exceptionally smooth, and while I already had a go-to sandable primer I was accustomed to, I figured it couldn't hurt to broaden my horizons and try a surface primer that I could use directly with my airbrush or paintbrushes. Unfortunately, my experiences were anything but positive.

The paint is very light grey in color, and as an airbrush paint, this primer gave me some trouble with clogging, but worse yet: when it sprayed, there were a lot of air bubbles no matter what I did, which means that as the primer dried (and it dries quickly) it would form little crevices of dried paint where the bubbles once were, which looked awful.

In an attempt to counter this catastrophe in the making, I tried using a paintbrush in order to paint on the primer. Unfortunately, though some of this issue was mitigated by using a brush, there were still air bubbles that formed both in the pouring tray as well as on the sculpture itself. The paint also wanted to pool, and didn't seem to want to easily paint onto the sculpture sometimes, which I found odd, but resolved by applying two layers of primer over the whole thing.

This also ended up being a mistake, because even though one of the reviewers mentioned something about this primer being sandable, it definitely wasn't. The coating is more like a thin, flexible acrylic, so when sand paper is applied, the primer simply pulls away from the sculpture beneath it.

If that wasn't bad enough, this primer was resistant to acrylics. What I mean by that is that acrylic paints bead up on it rather than apply evenly to it. It meant that on top of two layers of primer, I ended up having to paint two or three layers of acrylic simply to give myself an even coating to paint on that wouldn't be resistant to my colored paints. This, in turn, meant that I layered over a lot of details on the sculpture itself.  Partly out of sheer frustration from the primer, I still haven't finished the sculpture I applied it to, but I'm sure in time I'll push through and finish it off, trials and all.

I implore you: if you value your project, please consider using another type of primer so that you save yourself from the many frustrations I experienced. If I could go back in time, I would have absolutely chosen differently.

I am a longtime Amazon Prime customer who enjoys writing reviews in my free time. If you have any questions or comments about this product or my review, feel free to message me and I'll be glad to help!

In fairness, this stylus had the misfortune to be tried with another I got at the same time that was wonderful. I'm not sure for this one what the new advanced technology in the tip is supposed to be, but I certainly don't notice anything good or new. I got this (as well as another one) because i wanted a stylus that was very responsive and didn't require me to push hard into the screen. The other was wonderful and this one was terrible. This one was like one i recently got for a dollar - maybe a little heavier in weight, but same unresponsive rubber squishy tip requiring lots of pressure and giving lots of drag when trying to sweep across. I didn't try plugging in the "dont' lose me" feature since I knew I would have to send this back, but the clang clang clang of the dangling metal was distracting as I tried out the stylus. I'm not sure why anyone would want this - a finger works better than this and if you're concerned about losing a stylus, a finger is a pretty good choice for that, too.

After buying this router, I am disgusted with D-Link.  I will update this link after seeing how well Apple devices stay connected... I purchased this router after trying the ASUS RT-AC68U and ASUS RT-AC87U.  I like the features of the ASUS routers, but my Apple devices (ipods, ipads, mac-mini) were constantly loosing their connections.  Wired connections worked fine, but wireless connections were nothing but trouble....
....
so, I bought this D-Link.  I've only had it installed for about an hour, so it is too early to tell about Wi-Fi connection quality, but here are the downsides:

1) Not well featured.  Compared to the ASUS routers (especially with Merlin firmware) -- which is a well-featured browser.  The D-link router does not have virus scanning, malware scanning, web content filtering (they have the title.... but it does next to nothing), etc.  For the price of this router, it is really disappointing that it doesn't have more features.  Even the USB file sharing is a bit clunky in it's design.  The USB file sharing on the ASUS routers lets you share at the root level for both USB devices and works awesomely.  This D-Link router... does not.

2) Lousy user interface.  I write software for a living and this user interface is okay, but could be designed to provide more information at once.  As I consider the interface, I think a lot of the issue with it stems around the fact that the router just doesn't do a lot to start with, so there is not much to choose from, but the layout of menu, secondary options, etc... is just lousy.  Always have to click 'Advanced' to do anything worth while... only to click on it and say to yourself 'that was a waste of time... there is hardly anything in here to tweak anyway'.

3) This thing is ugly.  Sure, it is aerodynamic and shiny and red.  But on my shelf of square boxes (modem, OOMA, etc...), it is just out of place.  My wife says it looks like a hexcopter.

Overall Opinion... ugh... I will be content if it serves wireless devices well.  If it does, I will have to plug it into my ASUS router and disable WiFi on the ASUS router.  At least this way, I would still have content filtering, good USB sharing, access to a global HOSTS file, etc.  This router costs too much for what it is though.  Very disappointing.

Update...  The router seems to do fine without dropping Apple devices.  Unfortunately, with few features (no bridge capability, etc, one is forced to load DD-WRT to make this router useful.

I have a Slingbox 500 which is my 3rd SlingBox unit.  Technically, it's excellent.  And the initial experience when I first bought it was very positive.

But since SlingMedia started to show ads many times in any one viewing session, the experience is now far too obnoxious to even consider.  I had planned to replace my SlingBox HD, my 2nd oldest unit, with a Slingbox 500.  When you connect to your own SlingBox - having already spent fairly significant money - with their browser-based software client, you see ads "while it's preparing your connection".  That's pretty bogus since their servers are necesssary only to find the current IP address for the box.  The saddest part is that their browser clients continue to show ads underneath the actual TV picture. If you go full-screen and move the mouse cursor off the monitor on which it is full-screened, the ads briefly disappear.  But many things you to that put the cursor back on that monitor bring the ads back.  If the connection drops and you have to reconnect, you get to view a brand new set of start-up ads again.  If you're unable to go full-screen because you need to do other things on that monitor with your computer while watching, there appears to be no way at all to stop the continuous stream of new ads.  Amazingly SlingMedia has actually found a way to make the ads viewing your own box even more intrusive and objectionable than most web ads.  The ads are not small.  The ad box occupies most of the width of the client's user interface.

I haven't tried them, but SlingMedia claims you can buy an ad-free client for Android and IOS.  Why not for Windows?  I would pay an extortion price to get back the ad-free experience I bought when I first purchased these units.

And the Sling browser client has the gall - after making you view ads on a product they've already charged you big money for - to ask you to "rate your experience".  As if anyone thinks that being force fed ads the whole time you watch (if not full screen) is anything but a complete disaster in terms of user experience.

To pay hundreds for a SlingBox - which never had these obnoxious ads with the original standalone "fat client" - and then be continuously pelted with ads you can't skip is a huge cynical betrayal.

I strongly recommend you forget this product line find a customer-friendly alternative.  I'm currently looking for one and will discard my current SlingBoxes once I find one that is not so user-hostile.  What a waste.  SlingMedia as a company deserves to fail if they continue down this path.

First, the idea of this keyboard is wonderful!  A USB keyboard for your desktop that is also a Bluetooth wireless keyboard for iOS devices!  No batteries to change, repurposing the (now mostly useless) eject key to toggle modes, and with Mattias's typical attention to labeling the keys with their Option and Shift-Option key mappings.  Wonderful!  For the purposes of this review I am using the keyboard to type it.

And that is where the wonderful stuff ends.  Mattias, known for their TactilePro, a mechanical keyboard reminiscent of the Apple Extended Keyboard II, a long-discontinued ADB keyboard loved by Mac users and considered to be the Mac's Model M, has produced a keyboard that is nigh unusable.  It has taken me longer than five minutes to write this much of this review, and I type at 85wpm!  Why?  Keys that don't actually register when you press them half of the time, and I am not a light touch typist!  (See above regarding love for the heavy mechanical keyboards of yore)  You must press the keys dead center and evenly down, and for just long enough for the keystroke to register, but not too long that it repeats (in hardware!)

And then there's the next problem: The F-keys.  As you know, on the Mac, the F-keys do things like alter screen brightness, adjust the volume, etc.  Windows users are very frustrated that you have to hold the Fn key to get normal F-key behavior.  Most Mac apps don't actually use the F-keys, so that's not a big deal.  Unless you use the Terminal of course, or VMware for Windows/Linux.  You will discover that F1 lowers your screen brightness, and Fn-F1 does  nothing.  Nothing at all.  It just doesn't send a keycodeI'm a developer, I checked.  It does NOTHING.  And this isn't in iOS mode, this is in USB/Mac mode.

Presumably the Windows keyboard is better behaved on Windows, I guess.  But if the keyswitches are the same terrible ones used on this keyboard, it's equally garbage.  I have never wanted to return something to Amazon because the product was just such total GARBAGE that I wanted it out of my sight, and that's how I feel about this keyboard.  Have a look at&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-AmazonBasics-Bluetooth-Keyboard-for-iOS/dp/B005EOWBKE/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The AmazonBasics Bluetooth Keyboard for iOS</a>&nbsp;if you want a decent Mac keyboard.  Note, the AmazonBasics keyboard won't control screen brightness with F1/F2, and the other F-keys are different from Apple standard as well, but the major point is that the keyboard WORKS.  You cannot say that for the Mattias Slim One.

Now if You'll excuse me, I'm going to unplug this thing, shove it back in its box, return it to Amazon.

I agree with "suelovstopaint" and "S.Ruth"medMama", and disagree with "Jay Ray".  I'm a little bit wary of "Jay Ray's" review.  I'm not an avid spray paint user, but this product should have never gone to market.  I bought this product in the summer of 2011 to paint a planter which was already brown.  It should have been a no-brainer.  I envisioned a glistening brown planter.  Immediately, I had problems with the nozzle.  It continued to clog no matter which angle I used.  I removed the nozzle and soaked it in "goof-off".  I only include the information about "goof-off" here so that others do not waste their time doing the same.  The soaking made no difference.  I was cleaning out my paint cabinet, and before pitching this spray paint, I decided to sit down and write a review.  As I shake the can, I realize it is still partially full.  I hope no one else buys this product and wastes their money.  I'm not sure if it is the texture of the paint, or that it is a Krylon product.  I've used Rustoleum products before, and I don't remember having these problems.  I know my decision to buy any future Krylon products will be done with apprehension.

I'm a long time user of the Harmony 890 remote. However I'm so disappointed with this model that I'm just thinking of trashing this one and re-buying the 890.

I bought this model because my 890 failed. This one is cheaper, and the features seemed good on paper.

However, it has three defects (compared with the 890) that make it borderline unusable for me (although it has one major improvement over the 890).

Defects:
--------

(1) It is very slow. If you use it with a DVR, for example, this can be a major problem (e.g. with gearing up the fast forward/reverse).

(2) The Infrared transmitter has a very narrow focus, which means you have to point it very accurately at the IR receiver.

(3) The touch screen seemed like a cool idea. But (particularly in combination with the previous problem (2)) it's not. The reason is that it's a one-tap operation. So you have to (very accurately) point the device at the IR receiver, and then tap the touch screen. This is error prone. In the case of the 890 you can get your finger securely on the button you want, point and then press. Much more reliable operation.

Improvement:
------------

The recharge cradle is much better than the 890. It works easily. The 890 cradle was a pain in the a**; it could take a really long time to get the connections.

Some general considerations:
----------------------------

The concept of these is pretty good. I have a fairly complex set up, and the Harmony can control this.

The 890 I had worked for (I'm guessing) about three years and then just failed. These things might want to work a little longer.

I bought this remote primarily as a replacement for my Tivo and TV remotes, and also to integrate some of my lesser used devices (mythtv, dvd, etc) as well.

There are two significant issues with the remote.

1) It has a very cheap feel to it, the buttons in particular. Whereas my Tivo or TV remotes are designed well enough that I can operate them without looking, the Harmony with its very small non-contoured buttons is hard to operate by feel alone. In fact, every remote that I currently use has nicer buttons than the Harmony.

2) The web-like software interface for programming the device is horrible. It's slow, it's cumbersome, it's nonintuitive, and everything seems to take many pages of pointing and clicking and confirming to get even the simplest of tasks correct. Logitech should immediately ditch the software and hire someone to write native windows and mac interfaces.

The display is not as programmable as it should be, or I'm unable to figure out how to program it. As far as I can tell, I can only use the built-in activity names and icons, which is silly for a high-end programmable remote. For example, I get "watch my TV" superimposed over an almost-illegible TV screen, when I would much rather put a Tivo bitmap in there. "Watch my movies" is stuck over something that might be a popcorn, but I'd much rather it be "watch my DVDs" with a circle. For controlling my mythtv box, I ended up with the bland "generic activity". I really hope I've just missed an obvious feature and this is configurable.

The remote bugs me with screens asking if "everything is setup". The reason for this is that the essential premise of using macros to control home media is broken. For example, the remote can try to turn the TV on, but it really doesn't know whether its on or off. If you ever shut the TV off with another remote or change the input then you have to navigate through several pages of help screens on the remote to get it back in sync with the state of your components. There is no good solution to this problem, other than the individual component manufacturers coming up with a decent set of IR commands, which will never happen.

Somehow it thinks that both my DVD player and my Tivo are connected to Video 1 on the TV. I haven't tried playing a DVD, but that's obviously not right. Again, this is where decent software with a simple pictorial diagram of device connections would be useful.

In short, if all you want is to configure the basic activities ("watch my tv", "watch my videos"), then this remote will work great. If you want to do something more complicated, then you're in for many hours of tedious navigation of the cumbersome web-like configuration interface.

I got this Saturday afternoon and by Monday morning, I was convinced that I should return it. Thinking about taking advantage of that 920 shock protection? Think again! This shock protection (or lack of it) is a joke. I can't even walk with this or keep it in a non-90 degree horizontal position for more than 30 seconds without it skipping. And even when it is horizontal, it skips every few songs, stops playing a song halfway through, and also takes about 10-20 seconds to switch from track to track. And these headphones are terrible. For some strange reason, one ear cord is longer than the other.
Pros:
- Slim and fits in your pockets
- Remote control is great and easy to use
- Good battery life
- Plays WMA files as well
- Good sound features
Cons:
- It's impossible to play this without skipping
- Stops playing songs halfway through and goes to another
- Headphones are an insult to music and engineering
- The chords are ridiculously messy and unorthodox
- The radio tuner that's supposed to be digital is full of static
- Does not stay true to many of the specs advertised
- Time between songs is excessively long

I've been using Gardena sprinklers for years and years.  They've always been outstanding products.  Though many folks are turned off by their high prices and plastic construction, I find them to be long-lasting and well engineered.  However, THIS one is horribly engineered.  It's extremely hard to set up without getting soaked.  While is it very adjustable from 1/4 to a full circle -- it's near impossible to tell where the water is going to come out.  Unfortunately, even after this painful set up, you'll find the spinning action to be extremely inconsistent and very dependent on the pressure supplied.  What's worse, I was never able to find a pressure at which the thing provided good, even coverage.  Skip this one!

I have been looking at the predecessor to this model for years. And every time I look at it, I talked myself out of it because of the price. I've done that so many times, that over the past 2-3 years, I've had 5 different cordless sweepers and hated every single one of them.  The cheapest one cost $50, the most expensive was $100.  So, I've spent well over the cost of this one, and haven't been happy with what I received.

The problems are all the same:
1. Not enough suction
2. Terrible battery life (along with quickly diminishing capability on what life there is.)
3. Terrible ergonimics
4. Gets clogged up
5. Throws debris around rather than picking it up
6. Brush (if there was one) was underpowered and useless

This addresses all of those and more. And it does it for $399 with a 2-year warranty. (I got mine with an $80 gift card from a local department store, so that made it even more of a no-brainer... finally.)

When I sat down and looked at what I've spent trying to find a decent cordless vac, it was really an easy decision.

So, yeah, this is a lot to pay all at once, but it's not expensive if it means you only have to buy it once.

After the first charge and usage, it is everything I had hoped it would be and more.  The kitchen floor actually feels as clean as it does when I use the attachment on my upright sweeper (you know, with the cord, hose and the impossible angles that everything connects at making it impossible to move the whole contraption around).

My carpeted steps are clean again wihtout me having to literally haul the big corded vac up onto each step awkwardly holding the base while keeping the upright part stable with my other hand.

I received a Littmann Master Cardiology stethoscope as a gift from a family member when they heard I was interested in Cardiology as a subspecialty (I am a third year medical student at the time of this review). I have to say, this is probably the most disappointing stethoscope I have ever used. If I had any choice, I would return it and buy something else - literally anything else. I can hear virtually nothing with this stethoscope. It will pick up lung sounds well enough, but will not pick up heart sounds on hardly anyone. I can auscultate myself and hear heart sounds only because I have a very loud heart, but give me an elderly woman or an obese patient and I can pretty much bet on looking incompetent for not being able to hear anything. The most frustrating part of this is that I already have a Cardiology III, which beats my master cardiology hands down. In addition, I have let other students, residents, and even Attendings use my stethoscope and have had several tell me it does not work as well as theirs. Some of them even have master cardiologies! I have returned it once to the company for this issue. When it came back it seemed to work great, but quickly declined as if something was in the tube blocking sound. I am about to return it for a second time. I cannot express how disappointed in this stethoscope I am and have very much begun to resent it. One might argue that my auscultation skills are sub-par, or even that the stethoscope earbuds do not fit correctly, but I have tried both large and small earbuds and I can auscultate great with other stethoscopes. I write this as a warning to those considering buying this stethoscope. Beware. I would recommend going to a good shop and trying out everything first. This scope has been nothing but a very expensive source of anxiety and has done me no service in trying to learn what is a very difficult art to begin with.

I am having a hard time keeping the keyboard with how bad the software is. I own another Thermaltake mechanical keyboard with blue switches that I use at home, and I have no issues with that keyboard as it only was designed to be display a blue LED color.

This version of the keyboard is supposed to have software that allows you to configure the RGB lighting profiles. The software is beyond unusable. The keyboard comes default with a bright RED color. I originally bought a keyboard with brown switches for my office workstation. I like an illuminated keyboard, but the default RED profile is not very professional and I prefer a more mellow lighter blue color.

The software basically feels like something that you would download from some sketchy torrent site to crack pirated software. It looks like it should have gaudy midi music playing in the background. This would be all be trivial if the software remotely worked as intended. It should a simply task to change the color of the LEDs in the device, but sometimes the software locks up, fails to start, hangs, or crashes your machine. The keyboard also does not function without some piece of software that must run in the background in Windows, and even when all of the software is properly installed, everyday for the past 3 weeks when I come into the office, I have to RESET the color profile on the board when I startup the machine.

I will be returning this keyboard as it is utterly useless with the provided software. It is a essentially a $100 set of red LEDs that you can sometimes change if the software feels like cooperating an any particular day.

I wanted to like this thing so bad, but:

1) The photos of the product don't give any hint as to the bizarre and obnoxious lights inside the item which flash and cycle through colors continuously.
2) It resets itself to FULL VOLUME every time it's turned off and on again
3) It begins playing audio immediately when you turn it on (which is double plus terrible because it always plays it at top volume - it'll scare the bejeezus out of anyone in the room not expecting it)
4) It has no option to play sound files in any particular order - it's basically permanently on "randomize". This makes it worthless for listening to audiobooks. I tried numbering my files from 0-10, I tried alphabetizing them, I tried both, but no good. It plays whichever file it feels like playing and you have to keep skipping through random songs/chapters to get to the one you want.
5) The (inadequate) manual is such hard core "Engrish" that I couldn't actually include it with the item as it was a gift to my grandmother and it would have done more harm than good.

The good stuff is that it's compact and heavy and it has a fairly simple UI. I would prefer it if they had not made the buttons dual-mode, or if they had made them bigger and more easy for a person without perfect vision to see. I also appreciated, especially in light of the inability to choose the order in which your audio plays, that the device remembers where you left off when you turn off the device.

Honest to god, though, that obnoxious light is ridiculous and if this were an item I were using for myself personally, the full volume on startup business would be a deal breaker. It works out for my hard of hearing grandmother, but if it had been mine I would have sent it back. As it is, I may look for another similar item that allows me to choose the order of playback.
