How We Are Dealing With The Coronavirus

coronavirus

We think of PulseTV as more than an e-commerce company, we are a family. Many of our employees have been with us since we started over twenty years ago. We are taking precautions as a company and wanted to share with you what we are doing.

First, we are communicating every day about washing hands for 20 seconds or more. Throughout the office we have hand sanitizers strategically placed. In addition, we have handed out products from our stock that is geared to kill most viruses. This includes disinfectants like Miracle Clean Spray Pens.** This allows everyone to spray and then wipe their desks and work areas.

What is necessary is diligence and introducing new habits. Stop touching one’s face is a critical habit to break. And one of the most important things to do at work, and home, is to keep your phone clean. We handed out our Anti-Viral and Anti-Bacterial Disinfectant Foam by Zagg ** so that people could clean computers, laptops, phones, etc.

For our warehouse, vinyl gloves have been distributed. But don’t worry, the Coronavirus cannot live on surfaces more than 14 days and all products are essentially quarantined for 4 weeks to make sure they are safe for the thousands of PulseTV customers. We’ve also made the 50 Pairs of Disposable Vinyl Gloves** available to PulseTV customers.

And with Coronavirus, and flu season still here, hand sanitizer has disappeared from store shelves. Don’t drive from store to store searching for it – Just Order It! PulseTV has partnered with an industrial manufacturer to bring this maximum strength hand and surface cleaner to as many people possible. The Purifize 8 oz Hand Cleaner** exceeds CDC recommendations for cleaning and sanitizing. Purifize contains 70% alcohol to disinfect and kill more than 99.99% of all germs, viruses and bacteria, not only on your hands but surfaces as well.

And it’s not just hand sanitizer that’s in short supply. Masks, hand sanitizers, disinfectants and more have all become rare commodities. Please follow these tips if you find PulseTV is out of stock or you cannot find necessary products to keep you safe:

1) Stock up on Vitamin C and Vitamin D
2) If disinfectant wipes are not available, you can put vodka on a paper towel or rag and wipe surfaces. Rubbing alcohol as well will work, but that is in short supply.
3) Mix vinegar and lemon juice and put on a rag. Sprinkle table salt and this becomes a great cleanser. Make sure you wipe off the surface to dry.
4) Even if there are no “N-95” masks, use any mask to wear that will keep you from touching your face, even if it does not filter the virus itself.
5) Stay home if you have a cough. Be vigilant to not infect others too.
6) Avoid shaking hands for the next 3 or 4 months. Consider fist bumps.
7) Avoid public gatherings whenever possible.

In the end, it is better to be safe than sorry. We hope this blog post helps.

DVDs and Blu-Rays and CDs, Oh, My!

With the streaming age upon us physical media is becoming a thing of the past.

Books, CDs, records, tapes, DVDs, even Blu-Rays are all forms of media that are being abandoned for tablets, smartphones, and other devices.
The convenience of gaining access to, purchasing, and enjoy an endless supply of entertainment is quite enticing, but come on, you don’t really own that media…think of it more as a rental. What happens if a server goes down, your account gets hacked, or you can’t gain access to your accounts? You have to re-purchase the media that you had acquired in the past. What a pain!


Now, I do appreciate what streaming and handheld devices do, but physical media is where it’s at! With physical media you always have the desired movie, show, song, or book ever accessible. No buffering. No low battery. No incorrect passwords. You can put on a movie or show, flip open a book, or spin a record and enjoy without having to rely on a paid service to let you enjoy these forms of entertainment.

Now with Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox they have announced that many of the Fox titles are getting put in a vault and will not be available through streaming. WHAT!? Now is the time to stock up on DVDs, Blu-Rays, and CDs before some of your favorites become unavailable for the foreseeable future. Here’s one title that could possibly disappear…

Platoon 25th Anniversary Edition on Blu-Ray – Winner of four Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Directing*, this harrowingly realistic war film (based on director Oliver Stone’s firsthand experience) arrives on Blu-Ray for the first time in this 25th Anniversary Edition – loaded with explosive extras that take you to the front lines of moviemaking. Starring Tom Berenger, Willem Dafoe and Charlie Sheen.

Dark Shadows Complete Original Series Deluxe Edition DVD Set – This limited edition boxed set contains every eerie episode of the original Gothic suspense series DARK SHADOWS (1966-1971) plus a wealth of bonus interviews with the stars and creative members that made the supernatural thriller a cult favorite and an enduring television classic. Includes 131 DVDs with ALL 1,225 Complete Episodes and a Commemorative Coffin package.

Watch Around the Clock: 24 Hours of TV in Color – DVD + Digital Collection – Relive a Day-In-The-Life from Television’s Golden Age with this 24 Hour Lineup – IN COLOR! – This incredible 4-DVD collection, plus a BONUS holiday disc, features nonstop programming from the Golden Age of Television as if you’ve gone back in time, but this time IN COLOR! Starting with early morning cartoons for the kids, daytime programming which includes all your favorite family-friendly features, then all your favorite prime-time hits during the evening and then into the wee morning hours with star-studded movies all complete with commercials from the era.

Go “Team Red!

redforwomen

We may be a small family company, but we have a big heart. That is always the case when it comes to supporting members of our team.

Today, being Valentine’s Day, is the perfect day to share this story with you. Maureen, one of our number-crunchers, asked the office to join her in support of “Go Red for Women”.

Go Red for Women” is the American Heart Association’s initiative to increase heart awareness. Heart disease is the number one threat to women and 80% of heart events are preventable. Maureen asked us to wear red to honor those we’ve lost, and to support those who survive, thrive, and inspire, like her daughter Caitlin, who’s been living with heart disease since her diagnosis of long QT at age 16.

As you can see from the photo our hearts go out in support of Maureen and Caitlin. We care about each here no matter what. And that’s what makes PulseTV a great family!

Thanks, “Team Red”!

Bringing Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones to Life

sonusancheadphones
The finished Product and packaging.

To bring something special to our customers last Christmas, PulseTV partnered up with a top electronics manufacturer for something we’ve never carried before: noise-cancelling headphones.

Here are the SONUS Active Noise Cancelling Headphones with Carrying Case. You will not find this model anywhere else – it’s one of the PulseTV exclusive items on our site and we worked closely with the manufacturer.

PulseTV and The Electronics Department

PulseTV is no stranger to electronics: it’s been our number one standalone department for years now with almost 100 products at any one time. We’ve got speakers, power outlets and other accessories – but headphones and earbuds are probably our favorite.

From old-school wired headphones, to Bluetooth® Wireless devices, and the latest trend of “true wireless earbuds” we’ve been here for the complete evolution of personal audio. The only thing missing was active noise cancelling technology!

How does Noise Cancelling Technology Work?

It’s hard to explain, but what happens is that your headphones will dynamically produce a sound wave that is the mirror image of undesired noise, thereby “cancelling” it out. I don’t know if it truly cancels it, but for it’s best for reducing continuous, low-frequency noise: think of the low droning sound in an airplane cabin.

The technology has been used in aviation since the late 80’s, but the company Bose® is well-known for bringing the first set of consumer-based headphones in 2000, called Quiet Comfort, which they still iterate to this day.

But here’s the problem: they’ve always been so expensive! I won a pair of Bose QC25 in a contest, but they cost $300 at the time! I would never have paid that much on my own…

Selecting the Perfect Model

So that brings us to our partners, makers of popular Volkano branded headsets. We looked at literally dozens of models and configurations that were too expensive or didn’t sound quite right. Some were too heavy, and others felt way too flimsy.

We put the factory-made samples through various office tests until we were happy to select one for our customers! We chose to include a 3.5mm cord, and a very nice hardshell carry case – since we all know how essential those are for traveling on planes! We even collaborated on the packaging:

sonuspackaging
This is the first iteration of the packaging for the Sonus headphones. We suggested a few changes here and there, but were overall very happy!

Sonus Active Noise Cancelling Headphones Features

The Sonus headphones are an absolute bargain when compared to those $300+ sets and has all the same features as well as excellent sound quality.

  • You get Bluetooth wireless capabilities with the latest 5.0 version. What is Bluetooth v5.0? It’s more battery-efficient and gives a more reliable connection while the phone is in your pocket or far away.
  • The headset is foldable and goes completely flat for use in the included case or bends to fit in even smaller spaces.
  • Built-in 3-button music controls let you pause/skip tracks and control the volume. Haven’t you noticed this is starting to go away in favor of a single button?
  • And you can plug these into your phone directly into your headphone jack with the included cord. Why would you ever want to do that? Well the built-in rechargeable battery lasts up to 5 1/2 hours, but if you’re on a flight for longer than that, you can always plug in for uninterrupted music listening.

There’s many more features listed on our site, and you can always watch our video to got through most. There’s almost too much to talk about! But here’s a 5-star customer review that says it best:

sonusreview
A happy customer leaving a 5-star review. Thanks Gregory!

I know many employees have gifted these to friends and loved ones so we now have an extra $10 off to anyone who hasn’t bought a pair yet! That’s right: our price is now just $39.91 (you cannot beat that!) Remember, you can only buy these at PulseTV – so jump on these while we still have stock!
