Runhood RALLYE 600 Pro Power Station review – innovative power station system done right

runrood power station 24

REVIEW – Having reviewed quite a few power stations here at the Gadgeteer, they all have seemed to blend together lately for the most part. Usually, the review entails making sure it can meet the quoted power output, testing battery life claims, and comparing the number of ports or other minor distinguishing features. The Runhood […]

Jabra Elite 4 earbuds review – Hear here

Jabra Elite 4 Earbuds

REVIEW – Seems like everyone and their brothers are making earbuds these days.  From the knock-offs of the fruit-branded “pods” to specialty devices meant to pair with your favorite word processor, there is something for everyone in the space in between.  The question is, why pick one over the other?  That’s where Jabra hopes to

XPPen Artist 10 (Gen 2) Pen Display review – If it’s a small graphics tablet you want, this is it

XP Pen Artist 10 16

REVIEW – In economics, there is something called the “Trickle-down Theory”, meaning the best of a few years ago works its way down to the rest of us mere mortals. While you may or may not agree with that theory, it does hold true for many products—notably display tablets. Features that were only in high-end

Monoprice Soundstage 3 portable speaker review – more speaker, less portable, all great!

monoprice speaker 8

REVIEW – When people discuss portable speakers today, most imagine a small Bluetooth speaker that you can clip to your backpack that you can enjoy at the beach, set your drink on top of, or maybe even accidentally knock it into the pool without damage.  That is not this speaker, which is a refreshing change.

Vosteed Gator 3.98” blade folding knife review – a beast of a knife

Vosteed Gator 01

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a few Vosteed knives so far including one of my favorite knives, the Vosteed Raccoon pocket knife, and have been impressed with each knife. I was hoping they would come out with a larger blade as most of their offerings are around the 3.25 inch length. Enter the Vosteed Gator folding

Wizmaker L1 Laser Engraver review – Now I can cut all of the things!

wizmaker 11

REVIEW – I have always been fascinated by the cool crafting projects I have seen for sale at various farmer’s markets and artists’ shows in the area.  I am talking about the kind of crafts where you see flat wooden ornaments with different names inside of them, etched tumblers, etched glass, and etched and cut

SOOCAS Neos 2-in-1 electric toothbrush and electric water flosser review

soocas neos 9

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – Even though I brush my teeth twice a day and floss regularly, I still have problems with build-up behind my lower front teeth due to how they are crowded. This is my trouble spot and where the hygienist always spends the most time torturing, I mean cleaning. That is until I switched

Oberwerth William Camera and Messenger Bag review – a timeless classic

Oberwerth William 01

REVIEW – My grandpa was a photographer and leather camera bags will always remind me of him so when Oberwerth offered their William Camera and Messenger Bag for review I had to get it because it looks like a bag he always carried. Let’s see what the Oberwerth William Camera and Messenger Bag has to

Edifier WH950NB Bluetooth Active Noise Canceling headphone review – A lot of headphone for the buck

Edifier WH950NB 2

REVIEW – Four years ago (has it been four years?), I reviewed the Edifier W860NB Bluetooth Active Noise Canceling headphone. I liked those headphones but had some reservations I’ll get into later in the review. Four years later, Edifier has released the new WH950NB headphone—and boy, did they learn some things! What is it?

REVIEW – I saw a review for the Mingda Magician X 3D printer on YouTube about a year ago. I was impressed by how easy it was to use and the results it produced. I remember thinking that if I ever had the opportunity to review a Mingda 3D printer, I wouldn’t pass it up.

Nanoleaf Essentials Smart Bulb and Lightstrip review – they have what matters

nanoleaf essential lights 1

REVIEW – The gadget industry has talked for years about everyone having a smart home, but the way they’ve gone about hasn’t been very smart at all.  Every vendor has their own products, their own hubs, their own standards, and their own protocols.  This has made it difficult if not impossible for the various smart

Bitvae Water Flosser review – No parsley between YOUR teeth!

BITVAE 11

REVIEW – Just prior to the The Bitvae Water Flosser coming up for review my dentist told me to start water flossing. What timing! The concept brings back my memories of the original boxy, water flosser my Mom bought. It sat on a wall mount because there were no countertops in our house, just standalone

Eargo 7 Hearing Aid review – a definite help for those with mild to moderate hearing loss

Eargo 7 12

REVIEW – If you are hard of hearing, the years 2017 and 2022 should mean something to you. In 2017, Congress passed the “Over-the-Counter Hearing Aid Act“ and in mid-2022, the FDA finalized the rule enabling access to over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids. It took ‘em long enough. Before these historic laws, hearing aids were prescription
