Inflatable pods transform from patio lounges to chairs, pool floats and more

If you like to spend the hot summer months sprawled out on a pool deck, an Italian furniture company called Pigro Felice is about to take your poolside lounging to the next level. With their line of inflatable seating called Modul’Air, you can unfold and reattach every armchair and sofa to transform them into perfect floating pool furniture.

The idea behind Modul’Air is that each piece works as outdoor deck furniture and also floats on water with no hassle to support all your pool-lounging glory. Some pieces work as standalone convertible furniture, like the armchair or sofa that both fold out into floating pool loungers. There are also one-off pieces like a drink cooler, stability trays, floatable hammocks, and pillows.

Pigro Felice’s website also features an interactive platform builder, so you can mix and match the foldable pieces or design your own world of floating furniture to specific pool dimensions. Once you start with the floating base piece, it looks like the possibilities are virtually endless. There are nine colors to choose from in all the Modul’Air pieces, and accessories are all available as add-ons to your purchase.

Full convertible sets cost between $450 and $750, and individual Modul’Air pieces cost mostly within the $100 to $250 range. Some of the accessories are more fun-focused, like magnetic glasses to keep your in-pool libations from floating away or a blow-up seal, because why not? But practical accessories like an underwater anchor to keep your floating palace in place or a pump to blow up each Modul’Air piece without passing out make a whole lot of sense when it comes to building an inflatable empire.

How to format the microSD card on Tapo security cameras
The Tapo C120 out in the rain.

One of the most compelling features of Tapo products (like the Wire-Free 2K Outdoor Cam and Indoor/Outdoor Cam) is support for local storage. Many Tapo security cameras let you install a microSD card, so you don't have to rely on cloud storage to save all your videos – instead, they're neatly stored right on your camera. Before you can start using local storage, however, you'll need to format your microSD card. Tapo has some pretty strict requirements for how this works, but the process itself is remarkably simple.

Ready to start saving all your video clips locally? Here's how to format the microSD card on your Tapo security camera.

Blink Mini 2 vs. Ring Stick Up Cam Pro: Which is the best security camera?
The Ring Stick Up Cam Pro on display the 2023 Amazon Fall Devices and Services event.

The Blink Mini 2 is one of the cheapest security cameras you can buy. It's pretty well-rounded too. It's capable of filming in HD and offering support for outdoor use when paired with an optional accessory, making it a great choice for shoppers on a budget. That makes it wildly different from the Ring Stick Up Cam Pro, which carries a hefty price tag and supports both indoor and outdoor use right out of the box without the need to purchase a secondary accessory.

But is the Ring Stick Up Cam Pro a better investment than the affordable Blink Mini 2? From pricing and video resolution to the installation process and additional features, here's a look at the Blink Mini 2 and Ring Stick Up Cam Pro to help you decide which is the best choice for your home.
