REVIEW – In 2010, I reviewed one of the best professional earphones I have ever heard. 12 years later, The JH Audio JH/13 pro earphones remain my go-to earphones for musical detail, spaciousness, and all-around fun factor. Each custom-molded JH earphone contains 6 tuned armature speakers for a total of 12 speakers. Though the clear […]

REVIEW – How the new Shargeek Storm2 Slim power bank compare to a wall outlet with USB ports? Let me explain. Recently, I replaced two outlets with ones that had built-in USB ports. My thinking was that I could use these outlets to charge my devices without needing an adapter. While the thinking was correct,

REVIEW – Face it, we all live on electricity—period. And when power is disrupted, we suffer. One thing is certain—power will always go out at one time or another. When it happens, we grab candles, flashlights, and portable radios to ride it out until power is restored, usually an hour or so later. Sometimes, we
CROWDFUNDING NEWS – Yeah, we know, there’s been a lot of news lately on battery power stations, so if you’re over it, we get it. But not so fast. A company called LemiPower is introducing a 1500W LiFePO4 Power Station via Kickstarter today, August 31. It looks more like a personal computer than any power

REVIEW – A few years ago, I bought—and really liked—the TORO Super-Recycler gas mower. Then I killed it. In a move too stupid to admit in public, I neglected to check the oil after a year of use. One day as I was pulling the string, it seized—never to start again. I had to revert
REVIEW – In my years as an art director, it amazes me the sheer number of graphics tablets that are available. I keep wondering, “Are there enough users to support this niche market?” I guess there are, because the tablet market continually grows and the competition can be intense. In the beginning, Wacom was the

REVIEW – In the world of personal audio, sometimes it feels like headphones come in two categories. There are those that are great at music, noise canceling, calls, whatever, but not something you want to be seen wearing. Then there are those luxury models that aren’t great at anything but look great doing it. Then
REVIEW – Question—Do you have a dog who can either jump over or dig under a fence and wander the neighborhood or do you live where fences are not allowed? If so, a barrier such as the SpotOn GPS Fence may help. Let’s begin this review with a story. Throughout our marriage, my wife and

REVIEW – Even though The Gadgeteer is a gadget site, we sometimes review things that may not be technically gadgets, but still think may be of interest to gadget lovers. Not only are the Distil Union MagLock (Folly style) sunglasses not a gadget, they can even make the use of certain gadgets harder to use.

REVIEW – When you think about it, every review seen on The Gadgeteer site was written on a keyboard. It’s one of those things no reader thinks about—but the writer sure does. Writing on a keyboard can be a worry-free practice or it can be one full of frustration. It depends on whether the keyboard

REVIEW – Here’s a scenario for you: For years, I’ve had a DIY surround speaker setup connected to our smart TV through a good receiver. The two front left/right speakers are really good quality and the left/right surround speakers are also good. Then there’s that large 10 in. subwoofer we keep behind the TV cabinet
REVIEW – I will state up front that I love portable Bluetooth speakers. It doesn’t matter how big or small they are, how expensive or cheap they are, or how good or bad they sound—well, scratch the bad-sounding part. I like them because I listen to music all the time. And so I use different

REVIEW – You have to be pretty sure of yourself and what you have to offer to enter the overcrowded wireless earphone market. It seems as if everyone and their uncle sells them. Despite the odds, a new audio company has taken on contenders. AXS Audio claims to make earbuds that “will give you the

REVIEW – Portable charging devices can come in a lot of sizes and prices. They are incredibly useful in providing that extra bit of charge for power-hungry smartphones, tablets, or laptops. Since charging is based on devices being used and how often they need to be charged, how do you choose what best fits your
REVIEW – The title of this review pretty much says it all—how does anyone live without a pressure washer? I’ve used various pressure washers over the years. It’s because I live in hot—and very humid—Central Florida that this question comes up. If certain parts of a house—siding, decking, or a driveway—are not periodically cleaned, gross

REVIEW – The first thing that came to mind when I saw that Anker had come out with a power station was, “It’s about time!” I mean seriously, Anker has been at the forefront of small to mid-sized power backups that I and many others have used and trusted for … ever. Over the past
REVIEW – I’ve tested and used graphics display tablets for years and am familiar with popular brands. Veikk is not one of them. I had never heard of them until I received the Veikk Studio VK2200 Pro graphics tablet for review. The question is how does Veikk measure up to the better-known graphics tablet makers
REVIEW – Have you ever noticed how some companies seem to excel making certain products—even if the general public has never herd of them? Case in point: Imalent. Ima-who? Exactly. Imalent makes flashlights—really bright flashlights. In the flashlight world (is there one?), Imalent is one of the big dogs. They make all kinds of flashlights,
adjective: Portable able to be easily carried or moved, especially because being of a lighter and smaller version than usual. Notice that when you look up the word “portable” in the dictionary, you don’t find any reference to the new Soundboks Go portable speaker. It’s true that the $700 Go speaker is a lighter and
REVIEW – In late 2020, I reviewed the Edifier TWS NB2 wireless earbuds. I said then that they looked as good as they sound. Well, it’s 2022 and Edifier has upped the game with the NeoBuds Pro true wireless stereo earbuds. Edifier wisely carried over the handsome looks of the TWS buds while upgrading almost
