Fangor 2-in-1 CD Player • Looks like a Record Player!
I am a sucker for unique products and the FANGOR 2-in-1 CD Player falls into that category.
I joked with the family that this product has an identity crisis. At a glance, you think it's a record player, but it's really a CD Player with a Bluetooth speaker. My initial reaction was "that is awesome" followed by "I know what my next video is going to be."
Let's take a look at this CD Player combo and see how good it is for $30. This is what's next!

ALDI Finds: Bauhn Portable Bluetooth Speaker

During a recent ALDI shopping trip, I came across a portable bluetooth speaker from Bauhn, and I immediately thought that my audience might be interested to know about these Finds and if this speaker was any good. So, I brought one home! Overall, this speaker is better than I thought it would be, and for those looking for a inexpensive, good portable speaker, this might work for you. So how goo...

    Thank you for this review! I have a JBL Flip 4 and it doesn't hold a charge anymore. I took it apart to discover the battery is melted so no since in ordering a new battery replacement. I purchased this Aldi bluetooth speaker on June 5th and have been wondering how it rates to my old JBL. For $25 I'm going to keep it. Thank you again and I'll subscribe. Hope you do more Aldi Find reviews!

    Interesting video! We have reviewed a couple similar devices, but nothing with a portable CD player that mounts on the base unit! Also, I like how you have a background of music during your videos… Might have to consider doing that myself. It’s tricky to set the level in such a way that it does not distract. Yours was set perfect!

    Wow and flutter is usually belt or motor dependent. Since this is a new machine, neither of these should ideally come into play at this point, but considering that all seemed good immediately after you bought it, I'd start with a belt swap before looking at the motor, if you get no help from the company.

    I have ecoflow River 2 and this exact panel from eco worthy. I am in UK. At best was pulling 71 watts. But this weekend I was amazed that it pulled 120 watts. Esp as its only 100 watt panel. I went to leave a review but they aren't in stock anymore. I did see one exactly the same by eco worthy but saying they are now 120 watts. It's impressive only downside is mine didn't come with Anderson cable to connect to eco flow so had to buy that. But it's still a good deal I was off grid for 4 days. Last day I switched it on battery at 0 it was a cloudy rainy day with intermittent sun. It charged to 78 per cent on eco flow before I left to go home. Impressive.

I did remove the motor, cleaned the shaft (which had some stickiness to it) put a drop of oil in the bottom of the motor end cap and all has been working great so far.

    so i plan on getting the DP/HDMI version. my main pc will get the DP and the laptop will get the HDMI. I will connect to one monitor even through it will have support for 2. Will the KCEVE be good enough for it?

      Thanks for watching! I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. As long as the KVM has a DP and HDMI input and one HDMI or DP out to the monitor. Let me know how it goes.
