REVIEW – For those digital artists who are looking to buy a pen display, it’s easy to overlook the pen tablets that started it all—those black slates with no built-in screen that lay flat on a desk. True, display tablets are wonderful—I use one every day, but I didn’t begin my career using one. That […]

REVIEW – I’ve been riding electric motorcycles and more recently ebikes for almost a decade now. I love electric bikes, especially as a way to get around town quickly and efficiently while still offering the opportunity to get a good workout when I want. We’ve been looking for a while to get a good second
REVIEW – A good printer is a standard part of most home offices. Having worked as a print professional for years though, I’ve never owned my own printer. Why spend money on a printer at home when I’ve always had access to cutting-edge printers at work? Well, now that I work in technology I’ve finally
REVIEW – My Leatherman tool is as much a part of my daily attire as my shoes. The bit kit is rarely far behind and is usually accompanied by a plethora of paraphernalia. Over the years, I’ve used many different EDC methods and was eager to have a look at a few of Clip &
REVIEW – 3D printing is a ton of fun, but waiting hours or days for a print to complete can test anyone’s patience. Worse yet is when a print fails in the 11th hour. SUNLU has brought to market the T3 which touts the capability to print at 250 mm/s – or up to five

REVIEW – I’ve just introduced XGIMI’s Horizon Pro 4K projector to my video collection and now my favorite movie characters are jumping for joy! It’s like watching films again for the first time! When my daughter saw the image for the first time, her response was, “Holy crap, that’s a nice picture!” I wholeheartedly agree

REVIEW – The Olight i3T is a pocket-friendly flashlight from a company that tons of people seem to be turning to as part of their chosen EDC. So will it find its way into my pocket and yours every day? Let’s find out together. What is it? The Olight i3T EOS is a pint-sized AAA

REVIEW – As the weather is getting colder in the Midwest and hockey season has started for our family, I’m always cold! I own everything from hoodies to thick winter coats, but sometimes you want to be warm without having to wear all the bulk or carry around a coat when you are going in

REVIEW – I have been a professional photographer as a side gig for over 15 years. All my paid photography has been for high school marching bands and drum corps. I usually have my 300mm 2.8 lens with my 1.4 extender mounted to a professional DSLR. I am on the sidelines taking action shots of

REVIEW – I believe that you can never have enough flashlights. We currently own what I consider two top-end, heavy-duty flashlights. They are the Imalent DM35 and a Thrunite TN12 Pro that I have previously reviewed on The Gadgeteer. Both are great flashlights and do an awesome job of lighting up the night. However, when
Imalent SR16 55000 lumen flashlight review – Annoy your whole neighborhood! Read More
REVIEW – Most Friday nights we have company over to our house. Sometimes it’s just a couple, but other times it’s an entire crew. On those nights, the ice maker built into our fridge struggles to create enough ice for everyone to keep their sweet teas icy and their sodas cold. Sure, we could swing
HiCOZY Ice Maker review – a convenient source for extra nugget ice Read More
REVIEW – I love minimalist wallets because I don’t typically carry a bag (I’m never going to call it a purse!) when I’m out and about. I don’t want to bulk up my pockets, so when it comes to wallets, they have to be thin but functional. The newest wallet that I’ve been testing is
Groove Life Groove Wallet review – quickly ejects your cards with a thumb swipe! Read More
REVIEW – If you suffer from allergies, coughing, or just feeling down during various seasons, it may be related to the air quality in your home. For reasons I haven’t figured out, our family seems to be more sensitive to our environment than we used to be. I don’t think it’s the food we eat—my
Toshiba CAF-Z85US Air Purifier review – Totally silent, totally clean Read More
REVIEW – I have been searching for the perfect case since getting my new iPhone 14 Pro in October. I used a Noreve Wallet Case I reviewed here on my iPhone 11 Pro last July. I love having my wallet and phone all in a single carry item. I was intrigued when the Geometric Goods

REVIEW – I have the privilege of using the shower in my basement that I rebuilt. I say privilege because I am the only one who uses it and I like that. When I rebuilt it, I was not sure exactly how it would be used in terms of who would use it, so I

REVIEW – While waiting for the next round of superhero blockbusters to arrive at theaters I’ve been upgrading my home theater quite a bit. It all started with the Govee Flow Pro TV Light Bars I reviewed back in February 2021. The Light Bars did bring my viewing experience to a higher level, but they

REVIEW – Portable power stations are becoming increasingly popular because they are incredibly useful. Now they are available in a number of different sizes, to meet varying needs. Some of the larger ones are upwards of 2000 Wh, but that’s definitely not something you’d want to carry with you. Those typically have wheels built in!
GOOLOO GTX300 Power Station review – convenient power in a tidy package Read More
REVIEW – Laser engravers/cutters are everywhere these days. Seems like a lot of people discovered during COVID that making unique, personalized, and custom gifts is a great way to cut costs and even, perhaps, develop a side hustle. Like with any hobby, though, having the right tools is the difference between great gifts and owning a

REVIEW – I’m trying to get used to side sleeping, but it’s not easy to get into that habit! So I’ve got this fancy Eli & Elm Side Sleeper pillow to see if it helps. It’s designed to position you — and keep you — on your side at night. It’s also a premium pillow
Eli & Elm Side Sleeper Pillow review – a luxurious pillow that does the job! Read More
REVIEW – The BougeRV 100W CIGS Flexible Solar Panel is an extremely light, thin and flexible solar panel. Can a solar panel that can be fitted to curved surfaces actually continue to work? Does this very thin, less than a sixteenth of an inch thick solar panel convert sunlight to electricity as advertised? Let’s find
