REVIEW – I love ebikes. They are a great way of expanding the range and accessibility of biking and they’re just a lot of fun to ride. Today’s review is an ebike, the REVR TA7e Off-Road electric bike, that just looks like packaged fun. It’s a different style of ebike than others I’ve reviewed in […]

REVIEW – Having worked for years as a professional in the digital arts, I’ve spent countless hours hunched over a computer, recreating real-world objects in digital space. With digital calipers in hand, I’ve measured everything from TV remote controls to surgical appliances to a particularly stinky trout (don’t ask). The goal was always the same,

REVIEW – Last year, I reviewed the ANNKE FCD600 dual lens PoE outdoor camera. I ended up permanently installing it on my detached garage to add it to my home security setup, which uses the Synology Surveillance Station software.

REVIEW – Bugs like me. I’ve had more than one doctor say that I’ve had the worst case of bites they’ve ever seen. As a result, I’ve tried it all. Creams, sprays, clothes wash concoctions, soaps, and wristbands. What I’ve learned is that I will never completely stop bugs from biting me, but I can

REVIEW – I’ve been toying with the idea of putting a dash camera in my car for a while now. Honestly, I wasn’t looking forward to running cables, or taking up a 12-volt socket, or splicing into the fuse box. I saw a few online articles on how easy the FITCAMX dash cams are to

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a few mini PCs as a Gadgeteer. They’re great for a myriad of reasons. They don’t take up the space of a tower PC. They use a fraction of the power, so they put out a lot less heat. You can put them almost anywhere for any number of projects: media

REVIEW – Sometimes, the best product is one you never have to think about. You unbox it, plug it in, and forget it exists. I retired last July and now work as a freelancer for the company I worked at for 23 years. It’s the same job, but without all the corporate nonsense. There’s a

REVIEW – I’m all for cleaning gadgets and love to try out new tools. I have a robot vacuum/mop combo that I’ve used in the past that did pretty well at vacuuming but kinda struggled to do any serious mopping. The Narwal Flow came to my attention and the design of the mop functions was

REVIEW – I’m always interested in various crafting and manufacturing processes. Some of these processes I use for professional products, and some I use for personal projects.

REVIEW – My wife and I have become enamored with Halloween in our older years. We love decorating and handing out candy to the neighborhood kids. When my daughter told me about a Halloween-themed product the company she works for was selling, I was eager to see it and write a review for The Gadgeteer.

REVIEW – My 2025 Toyota Tundra Cremax comes with a large 14-inch display that can be used for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. I use the Apple ecosystem, so I use CarPlay. CarPlay offers nice features, but it cannot play movies or videos from companies like Netflix, YouTube, or Amazon Prime. This is not usually

REVIEW – I’m murdering onions tonight with the TACRAY Folding Kitchen Chef Knife! Designed for the kitchen and the campground, this beastie folds up for stowing like a pocket knife but boasts full-sized performance for your food prep needs.

REVIEW – When I took this reviewer role at The Gadgeteer, I did not think I would be reviewing furniture, but here we are! I love gadgets, but I also love all things analogue as well. I journal with pen and paper every day. I listen to vinyl on occasion. I read physical books (most
REVIEW – I’m no stranger to Govee and have several of their products actively serving in my home – outdoor light strips on the front of my house, in the bathroom, and bedroom, and a light curtain in the front window. All have been reliable and great fun. I love the ability to change the

REVIEW – Every new robot vacuum/mop that I review seems like it will be my last one. Why? Because each one has upped the game, so what could possibly get better? Then, I test a new one and get proven wrong. The new flagship Ecovacs DEEBOT X11 ONMICYCLONE is the latest culprit that raised my

REVIEW – After several years of use, the blinds and curtains in my living room had definitely seen better days. They were in urgent need of replacement.

REVIEW – I’ve been a woodworker for most of my life. Starting with simple tools and crude techniques, I think I’ve improved over the years. Advances in woodworking have truly been extraordinary.
