Review on Rechargeable AMERTEER Wireless Presenter: Laser Pointer Remote For PowerPoint Presentations by Norma Hoffman

Took a chance and purchased when there were only two posted reviews (positive) - without knowing the brand, loving the form factor, and hoping the low price point wasn't a negative indication of quality. That said, I have been extremely pleased with the remote!Requirements were small form factor (stumbled on this 'ring'; was just looking for palm sized), bright laser (minor preference to red over green), rechargeable (Li-ion; absolutely no NiCad) with Micro USB charger preferred (consistency with other device chargers), RF dongle (over BT), tactile feedback (distinguishable buttons), and a black screen button (with previous/next).When the remote arrived, I was disappointed to find it powered ON, but was able to confirm it worked as desired on the existing battery. Curious as to battery life, I began using it 'as is' without charging. With 1.5 weeks to my presentation time (last minute approval), I practiced at least 15 hrs. with the remote (a 40-minute presentation), which included me accidentally leaving it on overnight once and practicing aiming the laser for maybe five or ten minutes (along with distracting the cats with it for another five minutes). The night before presenting, I charged it, as I couldn't gauge the battery life and wasn't going to risk it dying. I was pleasantly surprised to find a strong blue LED light indicating the charging, but even more so when it turned off after maybe ten minutes on my phone charger.The remote performed exceptionally during my presentation at a conference. There was no signal interruption (though I remained 2-10' from the receiver plugged directly into my laptop), no unintentional slippage on the middle finger of either hand (fidgeted some by rotating it back and forth on the fingers), and a consistent laser beam when I need it (projector screen; largely washed out on my laptop screen in practicing).I don't often leave reviews, but wanted to make sure I came back to highlight this remote the best I could. The presentation was my first formal one (more than 5-10 minutes and requiring PowerPoint), but I have submitted for other talks this year and plan to continue in the upcoming years. I've already strongly recommended this to another coworker who frequently presents and love the compact form along with the quality clamshell case. On the rare chance that either of us should encounter undesirable issues with the remote, I will provide an update here. Enjoy!
