REVIEW – Aer got their start by crowdfunding a combination gym/office bag and as they approach a 10 year anniversary next year, they now have quite an exhaustive collection of bags and travel essentials. I still have their first generation Travel Pack and after all this time it’s barely showing any wear. So a chance […]

REVIEW – Most external monitors (even the fancy ones) don’t have built-in webcams, and if they do it’s nothing to write home about. Most laptops do have one built in, but they’re almost always just “good-enough”. Even a great, built-in webcam cannot match what’s possible for a webcam with a cutting edge image sensor, gimbal,
REVIEW – If the headline gave you a little deja-vu, you’re not alone. I reviewed the Titanium Band from LuluLook in April of this year. This is not that band. It is a new one called the Titanium Link Strap. It’s still titanium and it’s still a band designed for the Apple Watch Ultra. LuluLook
REVIEW – As electric vehicles continue to increase in popularity, public charging stations are becoming more congested. If you have a driveway or garage where you can install a dedicated EV charger, it will pay off pretty quickly in terms of both cost and time saved. This time around I have the 40A MaxiCharger from

REVIEW – Back in May of 2022, I reviewed Pitaka’s MagEZ Slider. There was a lot to like and a couple of things to improve upon. Version 2 is now out and they’ve addressed pretty much everything I was looking for. As luck would have it, I had a week long tradeshow during this review

REVIEW – I’ve come to realize that I may never find my perfect backpack, but that search pales in comparison to the search for a work worthy tote that can carry a laptop. I think we’ve been looking for one for my wife for her entire career. Troubadour Goods recently offered up their Featherweight Tote

REVIEW – I’ve always loved bicycles… and gadgets and while electric bicycles have been around a while now, it’s only within the last 10 years that their sophistication and affordability has brought them front and center. Electrifying a bicycle enables one to go further with less effort, charge harder, or arrive at work without having
REVIEW – I may not be the gamer I used to be, or even play one on TV, but I do spend a lot of time at a keyboard in front of a monitor. A good fitting desk chair can make a major difference in how you feel, your efficiency and even your mood. I’ve

REVIEW – Drones are cool and they’re both easier to fly and more affordable than ever. They also provide a cinematic point of view that there’s really no other way to get. Holy Stone recently released a new model called the HS720G and I got the chance to check it out. What is it? The

REVIEW – Does air purifier conjure up images of white or beige rectangular appliances? For those of us dealing with allergies, the form takes a back seat to function. What if I told you that doesn’t have to be the case? Briiv may not be a name you recognize, but you’d be hard-pressed to forget what

REVIEW – So you got yourself a new Apple Watch Ultra and you’re thinking it’s a shame there aren’t any affordable bands to dress it up with being titanium and all. Well Lululook must have guessed we’d be asking because they’ve got a titanium linked band that pairs perfectly. I’ve been running it for a

REVIEW – This is a smart bird feeder from Birdkiss. My plan was to document assembly and setup and then take it to the other side of the country and install it at my mom’s since she loves birds. That plan went out the window when I started using it. The birds showed up and
REVIEW – The last 4 years have been pretty epic as far as personal electric vehicles go. The sheer quantity of electric bikes and scooters available is staggering which can make it tricky to find that one model that will be the perfect fit for you. Smaller moped-style bikes have become increasingly popular due to

REVIEW – I ordered my first Pitaka case for the iPhone X back in 2017. It’s been one of my go-to brands ever since and to date, each of my subsequent phones has donned some Pitaka case variation. Each generation has subtle improvements and more color options. I was already using the MagEZ Case Pro

REVIEW – Whether you already own an EV or are considering one in the future, there’s more to it than just the car itself. Charging takes a little more planning and time than just hitting the gas station. The included charger is usually a low speed, lightweight 110v unit that can take up to a

REVIEW – I wouldn’t blame you for thinking that one fire pit tool is pretty much the same as another. That’s exactly what I thought up until a month ago. Then I received the elite series fire pit tongs and poker from Campfire Bay and all fire tools are not built to the same standard.
REVIEW – Ever had your power go out for a couple of days? It can be scary, costly, and even dangerous. If you’re into camping or hitting the road in an RV you also know how precious power can be. I’m in California and between extreme weather events and increased demand on the power grid,

REVIEW – Have you ever been in the middle of an epic VR session and had your session rudely interrupted by a dead battery? The only thing worse is being excited to get in there and have the system dead before you can begin. Super frustrating to be sure. Today we have two accessories from

REVIEW – I grew up skateboarding and loved bombing down hills. Stopping was accomplished by… dragging one foot as a brake, a power slide (if you could control it), running off the front (trying to keep your feet under yourself), or unceremoniously hitting a small stone or crack and having the ground come up at
