REVIEW – Being empty nesters has greatly reduced the size of our meals. Firing up our big conventional oven seems like a waste of electricity, which of course means money. Since using the Midea Flexify French Door Air Fryer Oven for the last month or so, we have not used our big oven one time. […]
REVIEW – I have lived in Florida for almost my entire life. One thing I’ve never gotten used to is the hurricane season and the power outages that come with it. Thankfully, we’ve never had a devastating storm wipe us out like many in our state. We’ve talked about getting a whole-home generator in every

REVIEW – Miniature vehicles, including trains, have always been a favorite of mine since childhood. Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars especially. As I aged, my interest in all things remote control (RC) has developed. I recently reviewed an RC boat and loved it. Now I’m reviewing an RC car from the same company. The DEERC
REVIEW – I get paid to sit on my butt all day and use my brain. Having a comfortable place to park my carcass from 8 am to 5 pm is a must-have necessity. The Boulies EP460 Office Chair fills that requirement and more. From the almost infinite adjustability to the airiness of the

REVIEW – I have lived in Florida almost my entire life. As with most states, we have a plethora of bird species. I have had a love/hate relationship with most of them. Cardinals – love them. Seagulls – hate them. Hummingbirds – fascinated by them. Woodpeckers – despise them. Eagles & hawks – in awe

REVIEW – Radio-controlled toys and vehicles have always fascinated me. RC planes and helicopters are something I really enjoy watching, but I would never own them because I’d be too scared of crashing. RC cars or trucks look like endless fun, but knowing myself, I’d get into the hobby too deep and would constantly want

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a few electric bikes now for The Gadgeteer. All four of my reviews thus far have been from four different manufacturers. The Engwe E26 All Terrain Fat Tire e-bike is my favorite of the four. It’s very well equipped, smooth and comfortable. One downside I didn’t mention in the review is
REVIEW – Since I was little, one of my hobbies was tearing things apart and seeing how they worked. This has led to my ongoing fascination with electronics. Stereos, computers, etc. I recently purchased an antique radio with the intent to get it working again. I wasn’t able to fix it, because I didn’t have
REVIEW – Have you ever wanted a dog that isn’t messy, doesn’t shed, only does what you tell it to, won’t chew on the furniture, and kind of obeys your voice commands? Well, the SunFounder PiDog Robot Dog Kit for Raspberry Pi is for you. The SunFounder PiDog is another great robot kit in dog
REVIEW – For as long as I can remember, we have had one of those floor-standing 5-gallon water dispensers in our house. You know the kind: big, heavy, 5-gallon jugs that sit on top of a dispenser that dribbles out water 1 cup at a time, slowly. I had to jump at the chance to
REVIEW – Have you ever been driving down the road and come across a van or truck fitted with jerry cans for extra fuel, racks for gear and supplies, and all kinds of survival attachments? Something straight out of a Walking Dead episode. I kind of got that feeling from the Fiido Titan Robust Cargo

REVIEW – Ever since I was a wee lad living in Satellite Beach, FL, I have been obsessed with the space program. We lived so close to Kennedy Space Center that we could go out onto the beach and watch the Apollo moon launches. I went to the first Space Shuttle launch and have been
REVIEW – I’ve been in IT since the first PCs came to the personal market. I have used quite a few keyboards in my time. In the beginning, they were all mechanical. The clickity-clack clickity-clack of the IBM PC keyboard still rings in my ears. Since those days, most keyboards have gone the way to
REVIEW – Our grandkids love for us to read books to them when we are babysitting, or they are over to spend the night with Nana and Grandalf (yes, that’s my grandfather name). But we’re not always there to do so, and I’ve thought about recording us reading to them, and having their mom and

REVIEW – The first retractable tape measure was invented in 1868, replacing the commonly used folding ruler. It was refined and perfected into the 1960’s. However, little has changed from the design we all know and use. Pull the tape out, measure, and retract the tape back into the housing. Today, tape measures are moving

REVIEW – When we bought our house 2 years ago we had hard floors and carpet put in. Our main vacuum was a huge, heavy plug-in that could suck a floor mat off the floor and destroy it. We added a self-cleaning robot vacuum which is good for a weekly run around the house, but

REVIEW – I have reviewed a couple of laser engraver machines for The Gadgeteer, and when the Wainlux K8 came up for review, I was very intrigued by not only its styling, but its unique feature set. Wainlux has several machines in their lineup that are on par with larger, more “traditional” laser etching machines.

REVIEW – Securing your home is one of the most important things to do. A sturdy deadbolt on an exterior door is one of the best ways to do just that. The Elamor M12 Touchscreen Entry Door Lock is an excellent choice for a dead bolt. It not only offers a very strong locking mechanism,
