REVIEW – I had the good fortune of reviewing the FUNTOK Kid’s Electric Ride On car recently, and while I loved a lot of things about it there were some drawbacks such as the size of the vehicle (taking up a third of a car bay in our small 2-car garage). Our little toddler is […]

REVIEW – I have a surplus of wireless earbuds and headphones around the house these days thanks to freebies with phone purchases over the years and other Gadgeteer reviews, but my partner has a very difficult time finding earbuds that fit her ear canals without pain or pressure and she hates headphones. I volunteered to

REVIEW – Projectors are usually designed to be bulky home-theater versions with high-end technology, or portable versions that are smaller and lighter but often are much dimmer or have inferior lenses or hardware. The Dangbei Atom Laser Projector caught my eye as a model that might be able to do both, a feat that your

REVIEW – I just finished reviewing ZyberVR’s Quest 3 Sky Tower Charging Dock and their ACE Quest 3 Elite Strap, and the only thing missing from this combination of accessories for me for my Meta Quest 3 is an extended battery. Luckily ZyberVR also sent over their Neck Power Bank for review, which claims to

REVIEW – If you’re using the stock strap that came with your Meta Quest 3, I implore you to seek an alternative as quickly as possible. Having used a variety of VR headsets for ~10 years now, I can promise you that a better strap will make your VR sessions much more enjoyable. Not only

REVIEW – I’ve been an avid VR user for a decade now (starting with the Oculus DK2 and many hours spent in Elite Dangerous flying space trucks full of cargo across the galaxy). I’ve owned and used headsets from Oculus (later acquired by Facebook/Meta), HTC, HP, Sony, and Google, and all of them so far
REVIEW – I’ve been dabbling with 3D printing ever since my first 3D printer review a few years ago, and have since used/reviewed nearly a dozen of them, but one thing I’ve not had the opportunity to try out yet is a 3D scanner. The majority of models I get to 3D print are from

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed and purchased air filters for nearly every room in our house since we live in a place that has occasional spikes of horrendous air pollution (most of the year our mountain valley is fairly clear but in certain winter conditions air becomes trapped in an inversion and pollution concentrates to frightful

REVIEW – I’ve used quite a few portable monitors to date, ranging from pressed-into-service iPads used as secondary screens to portable gaming monitors to double monitor setups clamped onto laptops. From all of those, I’ve found a single large monitor to be the most practical option for me. The one type of portable monitor I
REVIEW – BLUETTI has made a name for themselves the last few years by pumping out relatively high quality power stations. We’ve reviewed several of those in the past here at the Gadgeteer, but today I’ve got their latest foray into a new product category: a portable refrigerator/freezer. BLUETTI calls it the Multicooler, and when
REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a smattering of different portable coolers with a variety of sizes and capacities, but this marks the first “drawer style” car cooler I’ve gotten my hands on so far. Why would you want a drawer style cooler, you might ask? Drawer style coolers are popular for RV and custom camping vans,

NEWS – As someone who owned a Windows Mobile phone before the first iPhone ever hit the market, you could say I’ve tended to surf the bleeding edge of mobile phone technology (for better or for worse). The last few years I’ve owned no less than four different folding phone models, but even though I
REVIEW – I’m always on the prowl for new keyboards to try out, especially mechanical keyboards with features or switches that I haven’t experienced yet. In the case of the Feker K75 mechanical keyboard, we have both new switches (Kailh Vanilla Ice Cream in the unit sent to me, Corgi Linear also available) and a

REVIEW – I’ve noticed a couple of trends in the power station product category over the last few years that I’m excited about: LiFePO4 battery chemistry (for longer lifespans), faster charging (both through solar and AC inputs), and UPS functionality (the ability to use the power station as a backup emergency power source with items

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed e-bikes of so many shapes and sizes now that I didn’t think another one would surprise me with new features. I was therefore mildly shook when I saw the description of the Freebeat MorphRover Ebike with an included at-home workout station, but I was worried that a package like this would

REVIEW – When we purchased our car a few years ago, I was immediately annoyed with the requirement to plug my phone in every time I wanted to use Android Auto. I’ve tried another “convert wired Apple Carplay/Android Auto to wireless” dongles in the past, but was plagued with disconnects and dropped connections so I
REVIEW – I was always envious of other kids with battery powered cars when I was a kid, but as I grew up I found out that those 80’s era children’s cars tended to have battery lives in the 10’s of minutes and you were lucky if they could go faster than 2 miles an
REVIEW – If you’re looking for power stations in the 1000-2000 Wh range, there’s a huge range of options so you’ll probably be looking most closely at factors like longevity, port selection, and cost. One of the features I have rarely seen so far is the inclusion of a high-amperage RV style port, but today
REVIEW – I recently reviewed the ALLPOWERS S2000 Pro Portable Power Station, which is a good all-around power station without any glaring faults. ALLPOWERS also sent the S2000 non-Pro for review, so I also tested it out, and the big question is whether or not it’s worth saving $100 over the Pro version or not,

REVIEW – I’ve used some of my luggage pieces for nearly 20 years now, and they’re definitely looking the part. I’ve replaced a few pieces over the years (and the ones I haven’t replaced look like they’re about to explode spontaneously). Hardside luggage with 360° spinners style is the only type I’ll get from now
