Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
REVIEW – I’ve been printing all sorts of things ever since I reviewed the Anycubic Vyper FDM printer last year and the Elegoo Saturn 2 resin printer this year. I love being able to print out handy items for spots around the house, or figures or terrain for board games. Every year it seems like every 3D printer […]
REVIEW – I’ve been wanting to up my game when it comes to photography so I’ve been researching lighting equipment that I can fit into my small home office. I need something that offers versatility and portability. I think I’ve found it with the Sirui Dragon Series Bendable RGB Panel Light B25R kit. Keep reading

REVIEW – The many “solar generators” we review here at the Gadgeteer are only as good as long as their battery charge lasts, unless you pair them with a good solar panel set. Whether you’re setting up a solar generator system for an RV or cabin, or around your own house, or as a backup
GRECELL 100W Portable Solar Panel review – great companion to a solar generator battery Read More
REVIEW – Tickling the ivories is a skill that I do not possess. My lovely wife, however, has the ability, therefore, we have a piano. One thing that is crucial for playing is decent lighting, both on the keyboard as well as on the sheet music. The light needs to do its job without blinding

REVIEW – I’m not a great photographer. I am trying to learn though. I’m particularly interested in macro photography and good lighting is a must. Unfortunately, the lighting in my office stinks. So, when the Sirui Ultra Slim LED Video Panel Light E30B became available to review, I knew I wanted to try it out.

REVIEW – Can an air purifier be classified as a gadget? Is this gadget overkill for what it does? I learned a lot about air purifiers while doing this review of the LeVoit VeSync Core 600S Smart True HEPA Air Purifier. Read on for my impression. What is it? The LeVoit VeSync Core 600S Smart

REVIEW – Many times, I’ve reviewed a new pair of earphones or headphones and thought to myself, “Yet one more earphone/headphone to review.” This time I’m reviewing an earphone called 1MORE, so it’s more than appropriate to say that now. The 1MORE Aero True Wireless Active Noise Cancelling Headphones (1MORE calls them earbuds, I call
REVIEW – Despite being a gadget nerd, I have never managed to check off the laminator machine needed from my list. I always seem to have the need to laminate stuff for my kids or myself and I always end up going to Staples or some other stationary store to get it done. While I

REVIEW – I played with LEGO as a kid, and when my wife and I had kids, I rediscovered the joy of creating with them. The kids are grown and gone now, but I still like building LEGO sets. When I was younger, there really weren’t many choices. Either we bought genuine LEGO bricks or
REVIEW – It is finally getting cold here in South Texas. By cold, I mean highs in the 40s. I know that is not cold to some of you, but after over 30 days of 100-degree heat, 40 seems pretty darn cold to me! I hate the cold and would rather have a 100-degree day

REVIEW – When I was a kid, I enjoyed building models. Not cars or airplanes though. I liked building models of monsters. Yeah, I was a strange kid and that hasn’t changed at all! It’s been quite a while since I put together a model of any type, even LEGO, so when I was offered

REVIEW – Approximately 3 years ago, I created the 247 Real Talk podcast. As my audience has grown, I have been able to expand to a network TV group and I continue to look for ways to expand and create/provide more content. I was recently introduced to Blast Radio, and to a device called the
Blast Mic review – on-the-go live streaming Read More
REVIEW – During the pandemic, a lot of face-to-face activities were quickly converted to online. This meant that a lot of the paper tools typically used in face-to-face interactions also needed to be converted to digital. A scanner works well, but what if it was something you needed to demonstrate with? Or, what if you
REVIEW – As it turns out, this is the sound system we didn’t know we needed. My son and co-reviewer Mason picked this out after having a good experience with Creative speakers for a previous review. Our main TV already has a nice soundbar, and I have a portable speaker to use around the house,
Creative Sound Blaster Katana V2X soundbar review – Compact system, big sound Read More
REVIEW – Several years ago, not long after I started writing reviews for The Gadgeteer, I got the opportunity to review the Firewalla Red firewall device. This small device appeared unimpressive and simple in its design, but it turned out to provide powerful firewall control for my network and became a permanent part of my

REVIEW – As a pretty active and outdoorsy person, I have been wearing a GPS watch for over two decades. Lately Garmin and Coros seem to be the two leaders in the field with Suunto trailing behind. Let’s see what the Suunto 9 Peak Pro GPS smart watch can offer to potentially regain a spot on

REVIEW – As you can see from the image above, I live with someone who loves houseplants. Having beautiful plants in our home is nice, but watering all of them can become a bit time-consuming. Is there a way to enjoy growing plants without the need to manually water them all the time? That’s where

REVIEW – Not too long ago the car wouldn’t start. Dreaded dead battery! Fortunately, I have an automotive battery charger and I was able to nurse the battery back to health. But is the battery still OK or on the way out? Is it something other than the battery? Before taking it in or swapping

REVIEW – Products designed around ergonomics tend to carry an ‘ergonomic tax’ which make them more expensive than their traditional counterparts. Finding a quality ergonomic product in the goldilocks zone of value can be tricky with so many options vying for our attention. The ProtoArc EKM01 is a mouse and keyboard bundle that is at

REVIEW – The Velotric Nomad 1 e-bike is a new model from Velotric Bikes. Its fat tires are matched by a well-built, substantial frame. Plain road bikers with their synthetic bike shorts and featherweight bikes they can lift with two fingers may scoff as I pass, as I sit comfortably upright, not sweating, not pedaling
