||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thought it might beep or make a noise...doesn't do that.

Decent, but needs work
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These devices have a tendency to just disconnect from your hub. When they work, they work great, but they have faults.
