REVIEW – SnapFresh has been growing its product line of battery-powered tools. I recently reviewed their cordless drill, and in this review, I’m taking a look at their cordless impact wrench. What is it? This is a consumer-grade, battery-powered, cordless, brushless impact wrench that uses the same 20V/2Ah battery found in other SnapFresh tools, such …
REVIEW – Part of being a good steward of our planet is reducing the number of single-use plastics that we consume in our homes. A couple of years ago I reviewed ZWraps Beewax Food Wraps, which has reduced the amount of Saran wrap that we use. Today I’m reviewing Zip Top reusable silicone food container, …
REVIEW – Last fall I reviewed the SnapFresh cordless leaf blower. At that time, it was their only battery-powered tool, but now they have several more in their 20V line. I like the blower and still use it, so now I’m testing their cordless drill. What is it? This is a consumer-grade, battery-powered, cordless drill …
NEWS – We already have autonomous vacuum cleaners and lawn mowers. Autonomous cars are in the works. I guess it shouldn’t be a surprise that a company is planning to release an autonomous tractor later this year. The Ztractor will come in three sizes and work with a variety of implements and vegetables. It …

NEWS – A security researcher recently found evidence that several China retailers have been gaming their ratings on Amazon. They offered free products for good reviews and money for removing bad reviews. When Amazon caught wind of this, they started banning these sellers and their products from their online store. Big names like Aukey, Mpow, …
REVIEW – Around here we’re big fans of HyperX products. Earlier this year I reviewed their Pulsefire Haste gaming mouse, and I still use it every day for gaming. I also reviewed the Cloud Revolver gaming headset, which I gave to my wife, and she uses it every day to teach English online. Today I’m …

REVIEW – So you’re looking to buy an action camera, something both tough and portable to help you get those shots in places where you’d rather not risk your iPhone or your traditional video camera. If money is no object, then you’ll probably want a GoPro; they’re the industry leader and still make the very …
REVIEW – If you’re going to do any work around your home or apartment, you’re going to need some tools. Whether you’re hanging pictures in the dining room, building some shelves in the garage, or working on a DIY project, there are some standard tools that will always come in handy, like a hammer, screwdrivers, …
REVIEW – I love coffee. I love coffee made from freshly ground coffee beans even more. While I’m here at home, which has been nearly all the time during COVID, I have an automatic coffee grinder. When I’m on the road–we’re heading out of town this weekend for an anniversary getaway–I find myself without. One …
REVIEW – Our kids are in college now, but one day they’ll graduate—or so we hope—and they’ll head out on their own. They’ll get a job, get a car, and get an apartment. As a parent, I’m always trying to look ahead and help my kids to figure out what they’ll need to kit out …
NEWS – When Apple first released the HomePod, they designed it to be a Bluetooth speaker first and a smart device second. It had amazing sound but cost way too much ($350), and thus it was largely ignored while Echos and Dots sold like crazy. Most people didn’t care about a speaker that was a …
REVIEW – Over the years, my wife and I have tried a variety of different materials for sheets and pillowcases, including cotton, flannel, satin, silk, and microfiber. All have their place. Some are warmer, and some are cooler. Some are rougher, and others are smoother. For the past three weeks my wife and I have …

REVIEW – Part of being a writer for the Gadgeteer is also being a photographer. We have to take all our own pictures of the products that we review. I don’t know about the other writers, but I am not a professional photographer, so I’m always looking for ways to improve the quality of the …
REVIEW – I live in the south, and spring is coming. That can only mean one thing: Pollen! Every spring I’m inundated with floating yellow-green, powdery particles that coat my yard and car and find their way into my house. As members of our family are allergic to pollen, I need an air purifier that …
REVIEW – Over the last six months, I’ve read numerous reports observing that video gaming was at an all-time high in 2020. That makes total sense, as we’ve all spent a lot more time at home than we used to, due to COVID. Console gamers have the luxury of sitting on the couch to play, …
