I went ahead and ordered a $4 "rtl8832au" adapter just to see if it would work with the built-in 8852 drivers, and also to test with newer kernels as I build them.

I also had an rtl8811 adapter in the cart to test, but then swapped it out in favor of some other stuff--there's a limit of ten items on the "dollar express" deals. I have one of these radar bike tail lights on my helmets, but then bought a couple more, since I think I have some friends that'll want one--you can set it to strobe or flash for overtaking traffic, as well as be a regular light, and I've then had cars reluctant to pass me.

If I leave my helmet locked to the bike outside a store, it also flashes at anyone approaching the bike, which could give thieves second thoughts.

Ha, my review of it is third one down.

Lately, most stuff has been coming through import customs quickly at LAX, but then some random orders get hung up for weeks there.
