Intex excursion 5. At $250 on Prime day it's vastly cheaper than even my basic paddleboard and should be good for lounging in the sun a few times. Grabbed a trolling motor and mount for it, but I'm not amazingly confident that it'll work amazing.

A few games I wanted to try playing with a game pad, did grab a cheap xbox controller as basically the only prime day deal that stood out to me.

Finally ordered the wifi car play thing for the Rav with prime special. Most annoying thing ever to plug the phone in for android auto. Wtf over.
One of the best purchases I have ever made was that thing. I love that I just get in the car and within about 10 seconds I'm connected. Works like a hot damn.

As for purchases, getting something new for security
REOLINK Smart Video Doorbell.

and something else to better myself
Magnetic Rowing Machine

@Lysrin unfortunately they are complete utter Garbage both have been a huge waste of $.

1. The Mac address printed on the back is wrong
2. The QR-Code doesn't actually work to setup.
3. Having to connect to it via WiFi failed because it over heats and drops the connection every 1-3 seconds making it impossible to use.
4. Having a house fan directed at it only got it so far.
5. The ports only operate at 100mbs even with active cooling 🤦‍♂️

Guess I'll wait see if the $1299 Asus one will actually be better when it releases sometime this Decade.

The WiFi 7 hardware in general runs really hot. Even the ubiquiti U7 access points have active fan cooling built in. However at those prices you could buy a UDM dream wall on sale and a U7 AP or a UDM pro SE and U7 eith money left over
