Read on, Gadgeteer friends! What is it? The SwitchBot Hub 2 is an app-controlled, cloud-connected device that provides home automation […]
REVIEW – I remember buying my first Light Emitting Diodes from Radio Shack in the 70s. They were anemic red and a pair was $1.99. In 2023 dollars, that would be over $9. Now for about $90 ($15 each), Rollin Light sells a six-pack of room-filling LED lights! How do they work? Let’s have

REVIEW – For me, movies are an escape from reality and I love the zip-zap, swashbuckling of action, sci-fi, and adventure films! Immersion is the key and a bright, clear image is crucial. JMGO’s new N1 Ultra 4K triple laser projector packs a seriously bright, vibrant image to enjoy the story as the director
REVIEW – Wallet, Leatherman multi-tool, phone, and flashlight. I check my pockets for them every time I set foot out of my house. I’m a flashlight geek and over the years, I’ve learned that a good one is worth its weight in gold. Ok, not literally, but having one like the Vosteed Reylight Rook

REVIEW – There’s nothing like the big-screen cinema experience or a larger-than-life sporting event. Unless you can fork over ridiculous coin for a monster flat-screen, the only way to experience 100+ inches of eye-popping glory in your home is with a projector. Xgody’s X1 Pro projector brings a big-screen punch to a wall near

REVIEW – Lightheaded? Unexplained headache? Feeling nauseous? Irritable? Tired? Sure, it could be the leftover taco you had for lunch, but it might be because the carbon dioxide levels in the room are high. Want to find out? If yes, have a look at Kaiweet’s EH-8 Carbon Dioxide Detector. What is it? The Kaiweets EH-8

REVIEW – Burning toast is a minor inconvenience. Said toast filling the kitchen with smoke is a bigger problem. The same toast setting your house on fire can be catastrophic. Nip that in the bud with a great, connected smoke alarm like X-Sense’s XS03-WX! What is it? The X-Sense XS03-WX WiFi Smoke Alarm is a
REVIEW – I know, I know… There’s a flashlight in your phone and that’s great, but admit it, there are plenty of times it just can’t cut the mustard and you need a real flashlight. If you are looking for bright, compact, and rechargeable, the Thrunite T1 just might find a happy place in your

REVIEW – When Star Wars was released in 1977, I was in awe of the variety of robots on the Jawa Sandcrawler. I never imagined having a crew of robots to help with my household duties. Forty-five years later, my house is filled with them! Now you can have one that vacuums your house and

REVIEW – While on vacation several years ago, my car lost a belt idler. Miles from the nearest auto parts store left me few options other than begging for a bicycle, bumming a ride, or calling for a VERY expensive taxi ride across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel. Thankfully a park ranger had mercy

REVIEW – With coffee as an exception ;-), your chair is probably the most important ally in our employment or gaming experience.

REVIEW – No toolkit is complete without a good multimeter. Electrical troubleshooting is nearly impossible without one. If you’re a “do-it-yourselfer,” are curious if those batteries in that drawer are kaput, or want to play doctor with your car, then the Kaiweets KM601 Digital multimeter should be stuffed in your stocking this year! What is
REVIEW – When I was growing up, lasers were huge, industrial, cantankerous beasts, and largely the stuff of science fiction. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine owning a laser powerful enough to be useful. With Atomstack’s X7 Pro Laser engraver sent to us by Lasercome, I can engrave and cut with ease and
