REVIEW – I almost didn’t volunteer to review the Outdoor Master Electric Skateboard Cruiser. I’m pushing middle age, tend to be a bit clumsy, and bruised my tailbone the last time I rode a longboard (over 20 years ago). I’ve been curious about these electric skateboards I see around town, but I was worried about […]

REVIEW – A monitor calibration tool is something I’ve wanted for years, but I’ve never dropped the money on one yet. I’ve had great monitors and terrible monitors, and a spectrum of photo printers across the years as well. It’s always been a crapshoot in terms of what gets printed out versus what I edited

REVIEW – With a pending baby birth right around the corner, shopping for baby products has become a nightmare of a chore for me and my partner. The vast range of choices on every conceivable necessity and convenience makes decision paralysis a real thing. And if you also care about the look and style of

REVIEW – If you have ever tried to make custom shirts without a heat press, you’ll know how hard it is to get vinyl or inkjet-iron-on designs to successfully adhere. Success requires even pressure and the correct heat, which is where a device like the VEVOR Heat Press machine comes in. What is it? The

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a handful of portable (and semi-portable) power stations over the years, and there are a couple of things I look for in a good power station now: good battery-to-price ratio ($1 per watt-hour of battery capacity has been the average going rate for a few years now), an informative display that

REVIEW – There are so many in-ear headphones (or wireless earbuds or earpods or whatever you want to call them) out on the market already and the flow of new models never seems to slow. Many of these new models are either clones of competitors or very minor tweaks to a company’s “last year’s model”,

REVIEW – When OTD offered to send over their latest L2-H electric scooter for review, I’m not sure what I was expecting. I’ve ridden scooters of this style with no motors, gas motors, and a range of electric motors (from barely-able-to-move to too-fast-for-comfort). This new scooter from OTD might be the goldilocks scooter for me,

REVIEW – We’ve been using the same cordless vacuum for years, and I thought it was completely adequate. I’m glad Dreametech sent over their P10 Cordless Stick Vacuum for review, because if I’d tried this out at a friend’s house I would probably have bought one myself! What is it?

REVIEW – The world of power stations is one of choices: How many devices do you need to charge? How many watts will they pull? How long do you need them to run? If your answer to these was “quite a few”, “up to 1000 watts”, and “1 hour to multiple days depending on the

REVIEW – While top-notch phone cameras are replacing traditional film or digital cameras for more people every year, there’s still a market that they can’t replace: action cameras. Despite marketing suggesting it, I think most rational people wouldn’t take their brand new iPhone or Samsung flagship phone snorkeling or strap it to their helmet or

REVIEW – Are you looking for powerful sound combined with snazzy looks, from a company with decades of multimedia experience?

REVIEW – Have you ever been curious about “audiophile” headphones and what justifies their ~$1000 price tags? I know I have, but until now I’ve never had the spare cash or opportunity to use cans of that caliber.
