BELKIN WeMo Connected Home Range at Bing Lee

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uqGpcCm_rk

With the release of Belkin’s Home automation is now within reach of anyone with a smartphone and wireless network. With this new range of smart connected products, you can be in control of lighting, turn appliances on and off from your powerpoint and keep an eye on your home when you’re not around.

Belkin’s Wemo range is really simple to setup and use. This is because the entire range is modular, meaning you can start with just one or a couple of Wemo devices, and then add on as you require. Everything seamlessly links back to your wireless router, with most components connecting back to your router directly.

Everything is controlled by a free app that you can download and use on your Android Smartphone or iPhone. In fact, you don’t need a computer to get your Wemo devices connected at all – just use the Wemo app to identify and connect your Wemo device to the network. After that, you can monitor and control your WeMo products from inside your house or halfway around the world.

Here’s some of the WeMo components that are now available. The WeMo LED lighting starter set is a great way to get started with your smart home control. This pack comes with two smart light LEDs in your choice of either bayonet or screw-in. The starter pack comes with the WEMO link, which is the central control unit for the WeMo light bulbs. The beauty of this WeMo link system is that you can connect up to 50 WeMo light bulbs and control each one of them.

Using the Wemo link, the light bulbs and the WeMo app, you can turn your lights on and off, dim them for different mood lighting, and schedule them to automatically switch on or off. Group your light bulbs into locations or rooms and control them individually or together.

The WeMo switch lets you turn appliances on and off from an external location. For example, if the weather suddenly turns chilly while you’re out, you can turn on your electric heater remotely. Like the light bulbs, you can also put appliances connected to the WeMo switch onto a power schedule.

The Wemo Insight switch adds energy consumption tracking as well. You can track the usage of any appliance plugged into the Insight switch, and you can export that data to look closer at energy use and cost, a great tool to minimising your power bill.

The Belkin Netcam HD is a great security addition to your house, which also connects directly to your router and delivers high definition images to your smartphone via the Belkin Netcam app. It’s not just streaming live video from your cameras, you can also record the vision and sound from the room that’s being covered by the Netcam. The NetCam HD also comes with infrared night vision, for perfect monitoring any time of day.

Home Automation is simpler than ever with Belkin’s WeMo range of smart home devices.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PK0gXh6xSCw

Samsung’s new range of printers is now in store, and they come with some great new features that make it even easier to print when and wherever you need to.

All of the models here also support Google Cloud Print, making it super easy to print if you’re a user of google services. If you have a notebook, Chromebook or Android tablet and you want to print a document, just register the printer with the Google Cloud Print service and you can print directly off the Chrome browser or from the CloudPrint app that is available from the Google Play store.

Samsung’s own Cloudprint service is also available to pair your mobile device with your printer allowing you to print from anywhere. Send print jobs to the office from the taxi or even print photos at the grandparents to share holiday moments.

Samsung has also incorporated NFC into their new printer line up to make it even easier to connect wirelessly to your printer. So let’s see how it works.

First, download the Samsung Mobile Print app from the Google play store. Next activate the mobile printing app by simply tapping the phone on the printer to make the connection. Seriously, that’s all.

Next, all you need to do is select the content you want to print from within the MobilePrint app – this can include photos, documents, even web pages. Tap the printer on this location here to print and you’re done. You can also use the mobileprint app to scan, copy and fax as well, so you can have full control on your wireless device.

So let’s look at the lineup of Samsung NFC printers at Bing Lee. The SL-M2020W is a top value mono laser printer that has a very small footprint and up to 20 page per minute print performance.

The step up from that is the SL-M2070FW, a mono laser multifunction with the same print speed and the versatility of printing, copying, scanning and faxing. Wifi is super easy to set up with WPS mode for easy wireless network connection.

Then we have the colour models, with the Xpress C430W, a single function printer that prints 18 pages per minute in mono and 4 pages per minute in full colour, with a yield up to 1,500 pages with the full replacement toner.

Lastly but not least, the SL-C480FW is a colour printer, copier, scanner and fax with 18 pages per minute mono output and 4 pages per minute colour document printing. The auto document feeder makes large batches of document printing are efficiently processed the WPS set up makes it a cinch to enable wireless printing for the entire household.

Samsung Curved Monitors at Bing Lee

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72JpOyw9wYQ

If you’re looking for a new monitor for your workstation, here’s an idea. Samsung’s curved TVs are in stores and in lots of people’s homes now, but what about the home office? Meet the Samsung curved monitor, available in both twenty three and twenty seven inch sizes.

The full high definition curved screen provides optimal comfort for viewing, delivering a wider field of vision that’s easier on the eyes. The glossy black body is framed by a narrow bezel and elevated by a t-shaped stand. It can be tilted backwards and forwards to optimise your viewing comfort. It includes a VESA support to easily mount onto a wall with a VESA bracket.

The three thousand to one contrast ratio delivers more vivid images than a conventional monitor. The brilliant images pop with deep blacks, pristine whites and bright colours, with less light leakage. This means you get all the benefits of a great day time office monitor along with the perfect personal video entertainment display after hours.

For the best after hours experience, this curved monitor has a game mode that adjusts the display settings to improve the darkness of the picture so you can see all the action vividly. The fast four millisecond response time reduces motion blur, judder and ghosting, leaving you with an incredible image that you’ll love watching.

And if you’re a power user of your monitor you’ll appreciate these features. Eye saver mode reduces blue light emissions that have a higher fatigue rate on the eyes, and flicker free technology reduces screen flickering for a improved viewing experience.

And if you want to share your screen, the 178 degree viewing angle can be seen from any angle, vertical or horizontal, making effective and impactful presentations possible with this curved screen.

NESPRESSO Lattissima Touch at Bing Lee

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDD35rYFkAo

We’re here to show you the latest Nespresso machine, the Lattissima Touch, with a stylish sleek design in Titanium black, the perfect addition to any modern kitchen. The Lattissima Touch features the patented automatic cappuccino system, personalised beverage preparation with six one touch recipes, to deliver the perfect cup of coffee every single time.

As Australians we love our milk-based coffee, and Lattissima Touch delivers a perfect blend of milk and coffee every time, no matter what your coffee style is.

To get a perfect milk froth each time, all you have to do is this. Press the power button, and the machine heats up in just 25 seconds. To prepare warm milk froth, cappuccino or a latte macchiatto, fill the milk container with the desired quantity of milk, preferably fresh cold milk just out of the fridge.

Open the steam connector door and put the rapid cappuccino system in place. This will take only 15 seconds to heat. You can place a short cup under the coffee outlet, but you can also push the drip tray into the machine if you’re using a tall glass for a latte for example. Adjust the spout to suit the cup height.

You can adjust the texture of milk froth by turning this knob left or right. Use minimum froth texture for cappuccinos and maximum froth texture for latte macchiatos. Insert a capsule here. Then press the cappuccino or macchiato button to begin. The preparation will start and stop automatically. After your coffee is prepared, the clean indicator will shine orange, and you should make it a habit of cleaning your milk container after each beverage preparation.

It’s super easy to personalise your coffee volume on the Lattissima touch. As you can see there are 6 beverage functions. Ristretto, espresso, lungo, latte macchiato, cappuccino and warm milk froth. These preparations start automatically when you have reached a specific volume. You can tailor the volume of these drinks to better suit your preferences.

To begin, press and hold the desired coffee selection for 3 seconds. This enters a programming mode, and the button will blink rapidly and the brewing will start. Keep the button pressed for the entire process as the coffee flows. Then, release the button when the desired volume is reached. That button will blink three times to confirm the new volume has been stored. From then on that selection will flow to the programmed volume. For milk and coffee blends, you simply repeat the process for the milk flow and the coffee flow.

With the new Lattissima Touch from Nespresso, it only takes your touch to experience a great coffee every single time, exactly how you like it.

Like the Flex, the Charge will track your sleep and wake you with a silent, vibrating alarm so only you are woken up.

The Fitbit trackers work in tandem with the Fitbit app that is available on many iPhone, Android and Windows phones. It’s a powerful app that not only takes the data from your FitBit tracker but also helps visualise your daily fitness goals and enable sharing and competing.

You can set your goals on the Fitbit dashboard and track your progress through easy to read graphs and charts. You’ll also earn badges that reward step-based activities, floors climbed and weight goals that you can show off to your friends. And why not get them involved too, by sharing your stats and starting a group challenge. Then use the leaderboard to stay on track and use the friendly competition as extra encouragement.

The Fitbit app can also log your eating habits as well as workouts and weight. The more info you log, the more detailed analysis of your health and fitness progress Fitbit can give back to you.

Other models in the range Bing Lee carry include the pocket-ready Zip, the belt-clip ready One and the Aria smart scale that tracks weight, BMI, body fat and more, and recognises up to 8 different profiles on board, and keeps them private. The Aria data syncs back to your Fitbit app for goal setting and tracking.

And now with multi-device support, your app will automatically detect when you swap from one device to another, making it simple to use your favourite Fitbit device for any occasion! So get on board now and start hitting those fitness goals!
