Thursday: GVM, Kingston, Manfrotto, ASUS, Etc

Thirsty Thursday is here and we start with a fresh set of B&H Photo dailies running until 7/21/22 at 11:59pm ET:

+ GVM SD300D Bi-Color LED Video Spotlight for $490 with FREE GVM Parabolic Softbox Light Dome (35″)

+ 2-pack of 128GB Kingston DataTraveler Exodia Flash Drive for $18
+ that’s $9 per 128GB flash drive if my math is correct 😉

+ Manfrotto Element MII Video Monopod with Live Fluid Head for $140

+ also: three audio-related products

$110 is all it takes to grab a 15.6″ ASUS Chromebook as the headliner of the Thursday Best Buy dailies. It is based on the Celeron N4000, 4GB RAM, a stingy 32GB on-board [then again look at how much Apple charges for 32GB iPhones and iPads!], 4.5 out of 5 on 65 reviews, Intel UHD 600, 720p display resolution [hey, it’s $110! {no, not factorial, just a good old exclamation mark} ], up to 12.5 hours battery life, 2022 model year, no touchscreen, no backlit keyboard, etc.

Zooming into the product pictures, it looks like there’s a microSD, both USB-C and USB A 3.x ports, but I don’t see HDMI…

Meanwhile the Woot headliner deal of the day is an Amazon hardware device sale. On top of that, coupon code SAVE4 gets you $4 off a purchase of $10+ from this particular sale of Amazon devices.

Sale includes Fire TVs and Sticks, Blink cameras, various Echo devices and speakers and accessories, Rings and smartplugs. There are no Kindle e-readers or Fire tablets in this particular sale (granted, some of the Echo devices are kinda tablets).
