    It’s a cool little device. Wish it was larger to serve as a wall clock.

      when its in 'nixie' clock mode (Ive always wanted a real nixie clock but simulated is ok on the Time Gate), I would say its beg enough as a clock for any room as each display is a number

      Very welcome John, I love this thing. I have it sitting on my desk showing pixel animations, YT stuff, clock etc. I think you'll enjoy it!! btw- your other half stopped by here for a few, it was great to catch up a little bit. Hopefully you'll make the trip next time, got some fun stuff to show you.

    Wow, this thing looks like it comes directly from the future 😎 whenever i have 5 Apple watches left lying around i line them up in a row and build my own one 😂 until then this seems like a much cheaper and easier to use alternative!
    Great, informational and detailed review. Your channel really is a great source of new and extra ordinary tech. My inner nerdish child loves it!

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před 6 měsíci

      LOL, that's about what these look like (5 apple watches in a line)! It's a fun device, I've since moved it to my Desk (like it isn't already a cluttered mess), but it's fun to watch the pixel art animations during those long meetings. Thank you so much for watching and commenting. Also, super-happy to see a new video on your channel. You are the best at video presentation, super-talented!

    impressive but what always worries me with this cloud server-based hardware is how long the manufacturer is prepared to support it before withdrawing the app.

  • @louisevalentine44
    @louisevalentine44 Před 2 měsíci +1

    It is great the only thing i hate it is the build quality is very cheap and plastic, compare to Divoom Ditto pro which have solid premium build. For those who want a wall clock trust me dont use this as wall clock, because it charges at the bottom middle as almost all divoom products. Is best on shelf or desks

    Does it have an alarm clock? I am considering changing this out for my old alarm clock, but a snooze butto would be nice.

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Sort of, it has a small speaker. You can set the time for it to go off, but I don't think this would be ideal to be used as an alarm clock, it's not very loud.

  • @xSARCASTICxROMANCEx

    Can this be controlled only with Bluetooth or does it need to have the WiFi connect as well? I have Govee products and only have them connect thru Bluetooth because they won’t connect to my WiFi. So I was just wondering if it can be used Bluetooth only in case it won’t connect to my WiFi

    Hi! Great video. QQ…can the mic be configured off or will always be on? QQ2…If I change the wifi do I have to reconfigure all screens again? Thanks

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Not sure about the underlying software, if it's always on or a way to turn it off. I know the app. support is there in the firmware to allow the equalizer to work. Not sure if it's the app. itself that enables the mic or if it's built-in to always be on. That would be a question for Divoom. I've reset this device once, during testing and did need to reconfigure the screens after a reset (press and hold the power button for about 15 seconds to reset it).

      See 07:07, you download the PC monitor tool and add it as one of the displays then use the PC app. to send the data to whatever display you have it setup on (1-5). That's it.

    Does it power on by itself when powered?

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před 2 měsíci

      It does, however when it powers on it enters its own built-in mode. You'll need to press the mode button to select a specific clock set that you want.

  • @tommyg957
    @tommyg957 Před 6 měsíci +1

    Does it have an option to cycle through those five “builds” every 5 to ten minutes, is it chose one build for the displays and it’s done until you change it?

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před 6 měsíci

      I've not found an option that does that automatically, you would need to press the Mode button to change the display. I double-checked and can't find anything to do that in an automated way, if I'm missing something and figure it out I'll reply back.

      Ciao, come accennato in questo video avrai bisogno di una connessione WiFi a 2,4 Ghz per configurarlo. Se il tuo WiFi mobile supporta 2,4 Ghz, dovrebbe funzionare. Vedrai anche in questo video che utilizzo il telefono solo per la configurazione. Per configurarlo non è necessario alcun computer diverso dal telefono. La maggior parte dei dati che attraversano il cavo "dovrebbero" essere piccoli, quindi dovresti stare bene con i dati. Ma tienilo sotto controllo durante le prime settimane, se puoi verificarlo. Spero che questo risponda alle tue domande, la traduzione non è venuta bene quindi non ne sono sicuro.
