REVIEW UPDATES – There are 1000s of sites on the web that post product reviews, but here at The Gadgeteer, we take things further than most of those sites because we update our reviews regularly for the products that we love (or sometimes hate). Our review updates let you know how well a product holds […]

REVIEW – Some of the reviews here on The Gadgeteer include videos, and one of the harder parts of creating a good video is capturing clear sound. To improve the sound quality in my own videos, I’m testing out the Fulaim X5M, a new wireless microphone system. What is it? The Fulaim X5M is a

REVIEW – I’ve tried a handful of smart locks in various locations in our house over the years, with mostly disappointing results. Poor battery life, abysmal fingerprint reading, and internet connectivity issues have all marred previous attempts. When the review offer came in for the aqara smart lock U300, I was eager to try it

REVIEW – I love listening to music while I’m busy in the kitchen. However I still need to hear if the dog is barking or the kid needs something so I can’t wear any type of noise canceling audio devices. I had previously tried bone conduction and I didn’t like the sound quality so when

REVIEW – I live in an area that entices closed windows and heating from late September or early October until April or May, resulting in dry skin, itchy eyes, and the oh-so-familiar chill in the air. A humidifier like SwitchBot’s Auto-Fill is just what the doctor ordered to make it feel warmer and help

REVIEW – When it comes to getting a good night’s sleep, the mattress you choose plays a pivotal role in your overall comfort and well-being. While comfort is subjective to your preference of features from plush vs firm, foam type, support, pillow top, etc, Novilla has a variety of options that could fit your needs

REVIEW – I love multitools. The utility and portability make them a great EDC item. Over the years I’ve owned a number of different Leatherman multitools as well as a generic knockoff or two. The Roxon Phantom multitool came up for review and brings some interesting features to the mix, so let’s see how it
Roxon Phantom multi-tool review – A quality EDC multi-tool at a great price! Read More
REVIEW – No filter was used for this picture! You’re looking at the XMCOSY Smart Acrylic Lights, which are an update to a model that I reviewed back in March of this year. These lights are waterproof and completely programmable via the app for customized light displays all year around. We’ll look at the features
XMCOSY Smart Acrylic Lights review – Brings the wow factor! Read More
REVIEW – Even though I enjoy reviewing various products, my heart has always warmed when it comes to audio. I can’t quite pinpoint the reason behind this but let me tell you, I’m not musical. I can’t read music, or play an instrument, and if I dare to sing in the house, my wife (who
REVIEW – The screwdriver is one of humankind’s most indispensable tools. It is a valuable tool for each MacGyver and most of the 19 Doctor Whos. The ATuMan E2 precision electric screwdriver is midway between the Swiss army and sonic style. I have one to review; read on to see what I think! What is

REVIEW – Tactical flashlights are known for being brighter and more durable than regular flashlights. Though often used by law enforcement and military personnel, they are also great choices for the rest of us. Whether I am looking for a lost dog, dealing with a power outage, or investigating unexpected noises in the back yard,

REVIEW – If you are a regular Gadgeteer reader, you’ll know that we love our electric scooters. My wife loves her iSinwheel i9Pro scooter and I love the terrific Climber Scooter from Inmotion. A while back, I mentioned a new release from Inmotion – the RS Scooter. It is available now and I got to

REVIEW – Where does your EDC live when it’s not being carried in your pockets or bag? In a pile on top of your dresser, kitchen counter, kitchen table? Hey, I’m not judging. But I do have a suggestion. How about a dedicated tray like the gorgeous Leander valet tray. Let’s take a closer look.

REVIEW – I am setting myself up for some funny memes with the picture above! I hate cleaning inside the house, but it is a necessary evil. I would much rather be doing yardwork outside. So when a new tool comes along to make that inside cleaning chore easier, I am always willing to check
Hoto Electric Spin Scrubber review – Well built and very adaptable! Read More
REVIEW – I recently purchased an iPhone 16 Pro Max, and the first thing that I always buy for a new phone is a new case. I typically go with simple cases, those that cover the back and sides, and I usually buy whatever is cheap on Amazon. Since this particular Apple offering is egregiously

REVIEW – Hey, when did crawling under a desk or table to plug something in become so much effort? If you ask yourself that question, maybe it’s time for Trond’s Desk Clamp Power Strip! Please join me for a closer look. What is it? The Trond Desk Clamp Power Strip is a switched, five-outlet extension

REVIEW – One of the most fascinating and at times controversial product categories right now are drones. We have the capability of taking videography and exploring the world in ways that were almost impossible when I was a kid. We’ve had a few inexpensive drones over the past few years, but they were primarily toys

REVIEW – When I travel, I like to bring along my iPhone, Apple Watch, and Apple AirPods Pro earbuds. What I don’t like is having to bring along individual chargers for each device. The KUXIU Magsafe 3-in-1 charging station has been designed as a solution to that problem. Let’s see if it succeeds. What is

REVIEW – Now that my bike/e-bike/e-motorcycle/gas motorcycle garage shop is in full swing, outfitting it with all the necessary tools and conveniences is the next stage. One of the things I must have access to is pressurized air for tires, blowing debris from parts and of course, blowing up my kids’ soccer and basketball balls.

REVIEW – With the holidays coming up, I will be shipping more packages. Usually, I print a copy of the shipping label on regular paper only to cut it out and then run strips of packing tape across it, sealing it to the box. That’s only after I’ve had to print it a couple of
