For those hard to get places in the car and around the house where a full size vacuum can't get to a handheld vacuum is a handy friend!
The Audew 7000PA vacuum is cordless, bagless and hand held so it's small enough to hold and comfortably operate with one hand.
The battery itself weighs 330 grams while the vacuum unit and dust cup weigh 770 grams, bringing the total weight of the Audew 7000PA handheld vacuum to 1.1kg.
The Audew 7000PA handheld vacuum comes with two add-on heads which include an elliptical brush with a 3.5-inch mouth and a 6-inch long flat suction nozzle for vacuuming in-between cracks and corners.
The flat nozzle included with the Audew handheld vacuum also doubles as a handy extension for added reach for those long to reach places.
The Audew 7000PA vacuum is made entirely of plastic. The body and handle grip of the vacuum are made of shiny plastic while the dust cup is made of transparent plastic.
On top of the Audew 7000PA vacuum, you find the release button for the dust cup and the power indicator light beneath it.
There is a nifty flap inside the dust cup which opens during suction and closes when the suction stops preventing the dirt accumulated inside the dust cup from scaping.
Having a removable battery in gadgets is always neat because batteries don't last as long as they should with modern gadgets so you can always replace the battery with a new one.
Saying this, Audew doesn't actually sell replaceable batteries but you can always reach out to them if the battery stops holding charge and see if they can send you a battery replacement.
The average suction power of a full size vacuum cleaner is around 150-watt so that gives you a rough idea of what to expect with the Audew 7000PA vacuum cleaner.
As far as noise, the Audew 7000PA vacuum cleaner generates a loud but subtle buzzing noise, not high pitched so the noise doesn't make you want to cover your ears.
The detachable battery takes 4.5 hours to fully charge and can power the Audew 7000PA vacuum for a solid 25 minutes. The battery charges via the included 19V 0.5A wall power adapter which outputs 19V at 500mA.
Another important feature worth knowing about handheld vacuum cleaners like the the Audew 7000PA  is the battery charge cycle. The Audew 7000PA vacuum cleaner has a battery charge cycle of 300 cycles, meaning the battery is able to handle being charged and discharged 300 times.
Most smartphones lithium-ion batteries have anything between 300 and 450 battery charge cycles so the Audew 7000PA vacuum cleaner has a fairly long battery life expectancy of around 2 years.
To extend the battery life of lithium a battery, it's always a good not fully discharging the battery completely and recharging it every 3 months if you don't use it much.
Audew 7000PA handheld vacuum uses a stainless steel HEPA filter which is nice as you won't have to replace as often as the standard HEPA filters which are made of thin glass or plastic fibers.
You can wash a stainless steel HEPA filter over and over again for hundreds of washes and because it uses a fine mesh the filter will also catch pollen, dead skin and other microscopic particles like dust which trigger allergies.

Ulo the Owl is a quirky surveillance camera that breaks the mould from the rest by redesigning the concept of what a surveillance camera is supposed to look like.
Ulo's peculiar looks coupled with clever functionality makes Ulo standout from the crowd of security cameras and in a good way!
At first glance, you won't be able to spot Ulo's camera and that is because the 2 megapixel security camera in Ulo is not integrated in Ulo's owl eyes but in the shiny beak.
Ulo's shiny beak is where the motion sensor camera and built-in microphone are also integrated. The shiny beak doubles as a nifty two-way mirror that gives Ulo 120 degrees field of view.
Ulo's eyes are actually two watch size lcd screens (1.36-inch lcd screens with 220x220 resolution) for displaying Ulo's various eye animations which is a huge selling point for Ulo because of the "cuteness" factor.
From the Ulo app, you can adjust Ulo's pupil size, iris size and change Ulo's iris color and eye reflection.
The top of the head of Ulo integrates a capacitive touch button while on the bottom, Ulo features a magnet.
Included with Ulo is a neodymium magnet with 3m adhesive backing to stick it on a wall. When joined to Ulo, the neodymium magnet creates a very strong magnetic connection.
The back of Ulo features a micro USB charging port and a small opening to pry open Ulo in half and gain access to the battery compartment which takes three rechargeable NiMH batteries LR06 with a minimum of 1900 mA.
The mac address is written on the top underside of Ulo where you also find what looks like a 3.5mm audio plug but it isn't.
The plug connects the top half of ulo (the brain) to the bottom half of Ulo which powers Ulo. Speaking of half, Ulo's body can twist around 360 degrees so you can position Ulo at any angle when stuck on a wall.
Internally, Ulo features an accelerometer, a bluetooth module, a Wifi module and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 212 Series (APQ8009) SoC processor, which is the same SoC (system-on-a-chip) found in the Nokia 2 so Ulo's brain speed has a clock rate of up to 1.3 GHz.
As far as memory, Ulo possess 1GB of RAM and 8GB of EMMC internal storage which can be expanded via the built-in microSD card slot which supports only class 10 memory cards up to 128GB. As always, remember FAT32 formatting if you are using a 64GB microSD card or higher.
EMMC storage is the same type of memory storage you get in memory cards so when you setup Ulo you won't have to worry about erasing the settings when removing the batteries which, by the way, are not included.
Ulo's body construction is made of ABS-PC plastics and measures 9cm tall and 9cm in diameter. Ulo weighs 237 grams (with batteries) so Ulo weighs as much as the Xiaomi Mi smartphone.

Without batteries, Ulo weighs 120 grams and can actually be powered without batteries when using the included micro USB charging cable.
There are two ways to connect to Ulo via Cloud Access or Direct Access. Both ways are good options but connecting directly to Ulo means your data/information is kept inside Ulo rather than stored in Mu Design's remote cloud server.
Also, when connected to Ulo via Direct Access you can still access Ulo remotely, anywhere in the world which is primarily the main benefit of Cloud Access so from that stand point Direct Access seems the better option because it gives you control of your data/information.
Setting up Ulo is straight forward but be aware that Ulo operates on the 2.4Ghz band so Ulo is only compatible with 2.4Ghz routers. If you have a dual band (2.4Ghz and 5Ghz) router, you will need to switch off the 5Ghz band by going into the network settings of your router. The steps to setting up Ulo are as follows:

1) Power on Ulo and connect your phone to Ulo's wifi hotspot


2) Download and open Ulo app.  so the app can find your Ulo. When the Ulo app finds your Ulo, select it (you will see your Ulo with a mac address beneath it).


3) Follow Ulo app's prompts. Place Ulo upside down, select your country and enter your router's wifi settings but before you do make sure to connect your phone to your router network again.






6) The next prompt will give an option to keep Ulo right side up to access Ulo or to keep Ulo upside down to complete more administrator settings.


7) Manually Bluetooth pair Ulo with your phone by going to your phone's bluetooth settings and selecting W06S#***** (Ulo's bluetooth name). 


From the administrator settings of Ulo app, you can also create new users to grant them privileges to view your photos and videos.

The motion detection sensor built-in to Ulo can also be tweaked from the Ulo app via a setting called, Detection Exclusion, which lets the motion detection sensor know where to detect and where not to detect so it will not trigger the alert, which can also be disabled from the app.

Speaking of alerts, when Ulo detects motion it sends alert notifications via email but before Ulo can send you notifications, you need to complete the Email Settings by entering the SMTP server and SMTP port of your preferred email address.
If you have a gmail address, you will need to enter smtp.gmail.com and SMTP port 465. If you have an Outlook address, the SMTP server is smtp-mail.outlook.com and the SMTP port is 587.
There are three operating modes for Ulo. Standard mode, Spy mode and Alert mode which you select from the Ulo app. Standard mode is the default and in this mode Ulo does not record but the lcd screen eyes are on showing Ulo is awake.
Spy mode and Alert mode are the recording modes where Ulo records every movement with the only difference being in alert mode Ulo is asleep (lcd screen eyes turned off), while in Spy mode Ulo Owl is awake.
While 1080p resolution (full HD) is the current holy grail of high definition TV, Ulo's 720p recording resolution is still high definition (standard HD). The main difference between 1080p and 720p recording is in the viewing on a TV.
You can view a 1080p recording in high quality on a 44-inch screen size TV, whereas the maximum TV screen size you can view a 720p recording in high quality is 32-inches. This is because 1080p cameras have twice the pixel resolution (2.07 MP) of 720p cameras (0.92 MP).
