REVIEW – For many years I have suffered from Plantar Fasciitis. I have been to physical therapy and even received very painful injections in my heel.

REVIEW – In today’s world where everything is portable, everything will always need charging. And sometimes, an electrical outlet is not available, so your only choice is another portable device—a power source.

REVIEW – Fitness wearables are all the rage, and the accuracy of and amount of data they provide is ever-increasing. Most of these wearables come in the form of a watch, like those by Apple or Garmin. But what if you don’t want a big clunky watch on your wrist? Or, what if you want

REVIEW – In audio (as in life), there exists what is called the law of diminishing returns. This law simply states that the more expensive products get, the difference in improvements of features and quality diminish. For instance, a $300 pair of earbuds will sound much better than a $100 pair. However, a $500 pair

REVIEW – Are you running out of outlets in your room on the Death Star? Is your Tie Fighter short on power options? Do laser blasts cause power spikes? Have I got the surge protector for you. No, it’s not affiliated with our favorite sci-fi space opera but the Monster Power Center Vertex XL surge
REVIEW – Along with a wallet and a pen, everyone who is into EDC needs a knife. My personal knife tasks tend to be mainly limited to opening boxes, so I prefer a small pocket-friendly knife. Today I want to show you the James Brand Elko which fits that description. What is it? The James

REVIEW – Tires. They are your vehicle’s contact to the road so they get exposed to tons of dirt and grim. They are one of the most overlooked items when cleaning your ride, even though rich, black tires really enhance the look of whatever it is that you get around in. Chemical Guys are purveyors

REVIEW – Recently, I have been enjoying testing and reviewing small portable monitors. The last 2 monitors I tested were 17.3″ and 15.6″ and I really like using them.

REVIEW – I may be able to order from the senior menu now, but there are some young girl things that never really leave you. When I saw the Liene K100 mini photo printer, I thought that had teenage girl written all over it, but as a middle-aged woman I also really wanted it! It

REVIEW – I knew as soon as Julie reviewed the Olight Arkfeld last August that I wanted one. It was a new form factor that I thought would feel great in the hand and looked like a perfect pocket size. Luckily, the Olight Arkfeld UV came up for a review and I got it! This

REVIEW – I live in California where we’ve been in a mega-drought for many years. The idea of having an umbrella seems rather pointless. Of course, this winter has been abnormally wet for some reason! Where can I find a decent umbrella I might not want to lose, and won’t fall apart after two days?

REVIEW – Can an office chair really make a difference? Does one really need a chair that has a multitude of adjustments? In short, are all those adjustments really necessary?

REVIEW – I’ve decided this is the year of wellness and balance. I’m really trying to pull it all together and carve out time for all the stuff I’m supposed to be doing besides raising a kid and making a living, like eating well and getting enough rest. Results have been mixed, but I did

REVIEW – I have been working from home for almost three years now. Starting next week, I must return to the office four days a week. My home office setup has spoiled me. One of the things I love about it is the ability to place the screen of my laptop even with my external

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed and bought a couple of projectors now, ranging from small (and dim) portable projectors to home-theater style higher-end projectors. I’ve encountered a wide variety of quality and performance in the different models, so I rely especially heavily on reviews myself to know what to expect from a projector. I’ve been sent

REVIEW – Coffee is life. Cold brew is an excellent form of coffee. Nitro adds a luxurious velvety texture to cold brew, but until now that’s been a treat reserved for rare occasions in our household. I was elated when the review offer for this coffee brewer came in for the Vinci Nitro Cold Brew

REVIEW – The last 4 years have been pretty epic as far as personal electric vehicles go. The sheer quantity of electric bikes and scooters available is staggering which can make it tricky to find that one model that will be the perfect fit for you.

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a few 1080p projectors, and for the most part, I’ve been pleased with them. Along came the Dangbei Mars Pro 4K projector, and I just had to check out the highly-rated Dangbei Mars Pro 4K projector. 4K resolution and a laser have to be better, right? What is it? The Dangbei
