Temu Haul #2 60 Day Update: LED Signs, Tech Gadgets and More

**Testing the Magical Bag: A Journey of Discovery**

In this video, I'll be testing out some of my latest purchases from a mysterious magical bag that's been sitting on my table for who knows how long. The first item I pulled out was a heat-activated plastic bag resealer. As you can see in the photo, it looks like a simple device with a small nub at the end. At first, I wasn't sure if it would work, but after trying it out on a few different types of bags, I was pleasantly surprised to find that it actually did its job. The heat from the nub resealed the bag nicely, and I was able to use it with no issues.

I'm not entirely sure how much this device costs, but it's clearly very affordable - less than a dollar! If you're looking for a cheap way to seal plastic bags, this might be worth considering. I've had no problems with it so far, and I still use it to this day. It's located in my kitchen downstairs, and it continues to work like a charm.

Next up was a basic golf towel that I gave to my son as a gift. As you can see on the video, it's just an ordinary towel with a little hook attached to it. However, when used in a pinch, it proved itself to be more than capable of drying off my son after his round of golf. It may not be the most exciting product, but it gets the job done.

**Rotary Dial Timer: A Simple yet Reliable Timekeeper**

Moving on to the next item I pulled out was a rotary dial timer. This little device has been sitting on my counter for some time now, and I've found it to be a reliable timekeeper when cooking. As you can see in the photo, it's a simple design with a rotary dial that allows you to set the exact time. The only issue I've had with this product is that the feet on the bottom don't stick as well as they used to, so you need to apply a bit of pressure while turning the dial.

Despite this minor quibble, I've found this timer to be very useful when cooking meals or timing events. The numbers are quite sensitive, so you'll need to use a gentle touch if you want to get an exact time. However, with a little practice, you should be able to achieve your desired result.

**The Old School Macintosh: A Novelty Item with a Purpose**

Next up was the old school Macintosh device that doubles as a phone charger and display screen. This product may seem gimmicky at first glance, but I've actually found it to be quite useful. As you can see in the photo, it's a compact design that allows you to plug in your iPhone or Apple Watch while also displaying what's on the screen.

I have no issues with this device, and I'm pleased to say that it continues to work as expected. The idea of using an old-school Macintosh as a phone charger is certainly unusual, but it's been surprisingly effective for me. I've even decided to give one away to my kids as a fun little gift.

**Aroma Therapy Oil: A Pleasant Surprise**

Last but not least was the aroma therapy oil that came with this magical bag. As you can see in the video, it's simply a small container filled with essential oil. However, when used in the diffuser (which I'll be reviewing separately), it produced a lovely linen scent that my kids loved.

Unfortunately, the diffuser itself completely tanked out on me - it stopped working after only one use! Despite this setback, I did enjoy using the aroma therapy oil, and I think it's worth considering for anyone looking to create a calming atmosphere. With a little luck, the replacement diffuser might work better... but we'll see about that.

And so concludes my testing of the magical bag. As you can see, not all of the products inside were winners - but some were definitely pleasant surprises. If you're feeling adventurous and want to try out some new gadgets, I'd be happy to share more of my experiences with you in future videos. Thanks for watching!

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up everybody this is Carl from technical goodies and I am back with another Teemu 60-day update it's a little bit further than 60 days it's more like a 90day update but either way this is the update for the second video in the series and even though it's 90 days it just gives me a little bit more time to use the items to give you my true opinion so what I'm going to go ahead and do is toss a video up on the screen and we're going to go through it and I'm going to go ahead and give you my update SL opinion on whether or not any of these things were good or bad and that way you'll know if you want to pick them up all righty so here we go um so this is basically like I said my second video in the series and this is the first object that came out of the bag ah yeah well I guess you probably know what this is it's actually one of the LED signs that I have up here in the background um I think this is actually let's scoot let's scoot forward here in the video a little bit yep so this is the rocket this is kind of the first one that I got and I will tell you one thing I love this thing so I got it back here on my wall as you can see and it's been there ever since I picked this up on Teemu the only thing that someone did mention was that they had an issue um with the wiring uh they said not to it it was basically in the comments someone said you know don't leave this on um 24 hours a day because depending on if you're using the battery pack or what get hot or cause an issue and I haven't had any problem with it it's been just fine so here we are with the next item in the Box here okay so this was the aroma diffuser that I got um you can see it here on the screen let me fast forward a little bit here and basically this is an aroma diffuser that sort of runs off USB power now at first I really like this it worked great it smelled good but it turned out to be a giant disappointment after about a day or two of using it it just stopped working all together so I don't know if it was user mistake or if it was just kind of a crappy piece of tech but I did not have good experience with it basically after 2 days it went straight in the garbage I wouldn't recommend this one in particular but I would recommend maybe some of the other ones depending on the ratings you might see on the site all right ah yes this is one if you did watch that video you will know that when I open this the issue with this was that the clock was white and the lettering was white so needless to say my opinion on this was a I ended up not using this at all cuz you can't see the numbers if you have it in sort of a dimmed room then yeah it would work just fine but if you have it in any other room that has any bit of light to it then absolutely not I would not recommend this this clock at all cuz basically I haven't used it since then and if you can look here on the screen right now it's actually turned on again in a dark room that might work lot good if you want to have it on your nightstand at night you can see here I show an example of it at night so it does light up at night and it looks fine but unless you're going to use it in very specific situations I most definitely would not recommend this one all right what do we got next here in the old opening oh yeah my favorite sunglasses so again sunglasses you'll see a couple of them in here so far um what I said in the very last teu unboxing that I did is very appropriate if you're going to get any sort of sunglasses from anywhere you got to make sure that they're polarized a couple of the ones that I got here were not polarized so if you do go back to that old video and click on the link just make sure that they're polarized before you order them um some of them do come with that little card that allows you to be able to check whether or not the polarization is working um I didn't test any of these until later but what I did find out was that some of them just basically weren't polarized and I didn't pay attention enough when I bought them I just thought they were uh so those ended up going in the garbage so worda wies on sunglasses make sure they're always polarized all right so um next in the bag was this Writing Tablet so basically it's like one of those old sort of drawing things you had as a kid that had a little gray lift up well if you're my age it had the little gray lift up thing where if you lift it up it erased it and you write it you can write on this thing and then there's a little button there you can see that I click and it immediately erases the screen I have had no issues with this I haven't used it a ton I'm actually taking it on a vacation here to give to my brother's kid CU I think they'll get a lot more use out of it but what I have used out of it is great the the lettering as you can see here shows up great you can add your notes you can write on it you can do whatever you want and then easily erase it so would I recommend this yeah absolutely especially for a kid that might want to like to draw all the time and then just easily erase what's on the screen but most definitely I would recommend this one all right what is next let me scoot forward ahead here ah yes okay so this was the umbrella so I have mixed feelings on this it was such low quality and I felt like with the stiffest breeze the thing would flip inside out but I did give it to my son and he actually keeps it in his backpack uh for when they're walking to and from the bus and hasn't had any problem with it since but would I recommend you purchasing this I'm going to say no uh what I would recommend is finding one with a little better quality I think that a lot of them on there um are pretty low in price but what I would recommend is one with a little better quality if you can find it and one that has sort of a spring loaded right now that one you have to pull out manually and it's kind of a pain in the butt um but would it work in a pinch sure but would I recommend buying it no I wouldn't recommend buying it uh anyway uh next in the old bag here let's see what we got ah yes so this is the luggage scale okay so basically you hold on to it hook it to your luggage lift it up and it'll show you the weight of the of your current luggage and with luggage having to be under 50 lbs before you go to the airport you don't want to get there and have them weigh it until you it's over because you have to take everything out this has worked great I've used it twice so far I'm actually getting on a plane next Friday to go somewhere and I'm going to use it again now someone had said in the comments uh they said well you just grab a scale and stand on it and then pick up your luggage then whatever the difference is that's how much luggage weighs yes technically that would work but I am 290 lbs and my scale goes up to 300 so that's not going to work for me okay it might work for you but it's not going to work for me so something like this is so much more convenient to just have around be able to strap it to the suitcase and weigh it and go so would I recommend that one absolutely all right what is next in the bag ah yeah so this one I ended up using quite often this is sort of the heat sealer or the bag sealer that you basically use to I'll show you a video here real quick so here's me uh using it so basically you just clamp it onto the bag and slide it across the bag and then the heat from the little nub at the end will actually reeal the bag and at first I didn't know if it worked but then I ended up using it on the video itself and it worked just great and it still continues to work I have no problem with it would I recommend it maybe I think that as I've looked on Teemu there's actually other versions of this in particular that might be a little bit better quality but I think this one I can't remember how much it was but it was literally less than a dollar so if you're looking for something to try out little Gadget to have around to be able to reeal plastic bags it's not bad I I didn't have much problem with it I still use it to this day it's downstairs in my kitchen so yeah no issues with it all right next in the bag was ah golf towel yeah that ended up working great uh if you go back and look at the video you'll see it's just basic golf towel that I gave to my son had a little hook on it he used it just fine all right what is next that I pulled out of that magical bag on my table there ah yeah so this is a rotary dial timer as you can see on the screen here um what I'm doing is you can actually go ahead and sort of turn the dial and when you turn the dial it it increases the it increases the numbers up and down and I have this downstairs on my counter and I use it when I'm cooking have no problem with it still working to this day only thing is that the feet on the bottom don't stick as well as I'd like so you kind of have to push down while you're turning the dial and the sensitivity of the numbers going up and down were a little senstive so if you want to get like right to 15 minutes you're trying to turn the thing back and forth it doesn't stop right on 15 or any sort of numbers in between you get 1501 you know or 1445 or something like that so you kind of have to Jimmy it to get what you want but other than that I mean for a small little timer if you're not using your phone or something like that it's a good little it's a good little uh good little timer had no issues with it all right what do we got here what is next ah yes okay so this ended up working out pretty good it's basically a small um like old school Macintosh that you can put your as you can see here you can put your um iPhone or I Apple watch charger in the back of it and then when you slide your Apple watch in like that it ends up charging and then you can see what's ever on the screen in the little Macintosh itself so it's kind of gimmicky um you can see I have a little picture of what it would look like on the screen here um but I yeah I use it I have no problem with it I'm actually going to give it to my kids to use on their table cuz I have a a different one that I picked up uh in a different teu uh unboxing but uh yeah no no issues with it all right what did I pull out of the bag this time oh yeah so this was the actual Aroma theapy oil that you put into there I didn't have any issues with that I mean it's so it's so simple you can see me here putting this whole thing together and trying to use it but basically you take this aroma therapy oil and put it in the diffuser and when the diffuser did work that was actually pretty nice it like a linen smell uh smelled great my kids came home and said oh what does that smell it smells awesome so it did work too bad that the uh the diffuser completely just tanked out on me I mean that totally sucked CU I really did like using this and I think that is about it quick video guys just wanted to make sure I got a chance to sort of update you on some of these purchases let you know which ones worked which ones didn't which ones to stay away from hope you enjoyed this please give me a like give me a subscribe I'd love to see you back we do stuff all the time uh but until then this is Carl from techville goodies and I'm outwhat's up everybody this is Carl from technical goodies and I am back with
