Powerful Rechargeable Sound Machine
[[VIDEOID:49c45055eab93cc80353b85a006cff4a]] So, I purchased this Sound Machine because I have permanent Tinnitus (ear ringing) from a TBI and need background noise at night to help drown out the high-pitch ringing in my right ear. I currently have an Echo Show 5 on my nightstand, however, if there is a power/internet outage, then I will not have a backup.  Which is why I purchased this as it isn't reliant on the internet and is rechargeable with a 7-hour battery and timer options (pro).  Below, are some pros and cons for this device.<br /><br />Pros<br />-Rechargeable 7-hour battery with 2.5 hour full charge time<br />-Not reliant on the internet<br />-3 different timer options<br />-Light with 7 different color options and 3 different modes (always on, breathing light (I like this as I suffer from Anxiety), and off.<br />-Adjustable volume gets pretty loud.<br />-Headset jack.<br />-29 sound options (15 Nature sounds and music box; 7 White Noise; 7 Fan sounds); each category have their own button with a sound notification when you reach the end of the list.<br />-Actually includes a wall adapter along with the USB cable.<br /><br />Cons<br />-Not Voice-activated like my Echo devices; I have to manually power on and activate/change the options.<br />-Of the 29 sound options, I will only use the Nature Sounds category minus the music box sounds (creepy).  The White Noise sounds, to me at least, are a bit distracting/annoying and the Fan sounds are more like a generator than a fan.<br />-Although not really a con for me, but it is a bit bigger than the Echo Dot devices.<br />-It states that it comes with a "Travel Pouch", but there were not any included in the box, unless they consider the paper-thin, styrofoam packing material to be a travel pouch.<br /><br />I have included pictures and a video of the device for sound and light reference.
