Installing A Rear View Mirror With Temperature Sensor

These radios are amazing. Installed in my Jeep above my rear view mirror and I am stoked about it. It’s small enough to not be in the way but is great for communicating with fellow Jeep’s. I used the ghost antenna so that it didn’t get wiped out by limbs on the trail. I’m thinking of purchasing the 6db antenna to help increase my range. I feel you can’t go wrong with this radio! Will be purchasing another for my sons Jeep.

Installing this rear filter holder couldn't be easier. Caution: The screws that need to be removed are very tiny and I would recommend magnetizing the supplied screw driver. The glass filters themselves install without difficult, but you must be careful in handling them as they are not very thick. My only concern was installing or changing the ND filters in the field because you have to remove the lens from the camera body. This exposes the sensor to the elements for however long it takes to accomplish this task. I would strongly suggest putting the camera body cap back on while you do this to protect the sensor. Otherwise, it is a well thought out quality product that I've come to expect from Haida.

The Nest Temperature Sensor is a great way to measure another temperature in the house for either warmer or cooler temperatures. Bedroom, upstairs, basement, etc. Ties in to the main Nest thermostat. You can pick to set the desired temperature based on the sensor, or schedule different temperatures. Have it run off the sensor at night, and off the thermostat in the day. Very easy to set up.

Having some grunge on my sensor & mirror that were not removed with Sensor Clean, I ordered Smear Away. It took a couple of swabs, but the spots were removed and everything was nice and shiny clean. Works as intended and I would buy it again.

The Nest Temperature Sensor is a must have addon for any Nest Thermostat. It can measure temperature in specific room and set the right temperature.

The Nest temperature sensor is easy to use, easy to set up, and has worked flawlessly since we set it up.

Used to view dust on image sensor

In the mid-1980s I bought a Nikon 7.5mm f5.6 circular fisheye. Being an older design (1966) its rear elements protruded into the mirror box. Fortunately my F3 had a hard physical mirror lockup. The external viewfinder for this lens attached to the camera on the original Nikon F/F2’s proprietary flash shoe. I was able to buy an AS-3 flash adapter for the F3. With the F3s mirror locked up I also had to use an hand-held light meter. With amazing depth of foield focusing was never an issue. The old zoom lens had six filters on a wheel. One was a skylight and the other five were strongly colored for B&W film. While I liked the circular results, using the lens was a hassle. I often had my shoes or forehead in the picture. On a sunny day, my images suffered from solar flares. My new Nikon 8-15mm AF-S fisheye has none of those old problems. It fits on my DSLRs without any problem. It doesn’t need an external finder or separate light meter. At the 8mm setting (and lens hood off) I get a circular image very much like the vintage fisheye. The new lens is faster and focusable. Like my 14mm f2.8 Nikkor, this zoom uses gel filters inserted in the rear of the lens. I really don’t like this arrangement. This fisheye is similar in weight and size to the 14mm lens. I am also not fond of the electronic aperture control first seen on G lenses. Without an aperture ring one cannot use this zoom on older cameras. At the longer end of the zoom range (12-15mm) the image fills the (FX) frame and lens hood stays out of the way. This image is similar to my inexpensive Bower (Samyang?) 8mm fisheye with its fixed lens hood (and DX coverage). So far I haven’t used my new lens much but I think I will like it.

I use the product to chack oht the mirror and sensor in my camera for dust. It works great!

Installing this stat was silly easy. Everything was included in the box. Trim plate, wire markers, C wire adapter thing. Thankfully had a spare wire for the common wire, so the included bit wasn't needed. Once powered up, the set up was simple, both from the app and the web page. I really like that the outdoor temperature is shown on the main screen, though the -3.5 could be rounded to whole units. I really like the high/low temperature alert part.
