CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – Whether it’s cooking something, hanging out with friends, or relaxing, there’s something magical about sitting around a fire pit. The BondStove Smokeless Fire Pit added some modern features to the fire pit, so I just had to check it out. What is it? The BondStove is a smokeless fire pit with optional […]

REVIEW – The best part about getting a new phone is that you also get to buy new “clothes” for it. I recently bought the new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. I haven’t decided if I’m actually going to keep it yet, but until I do, I need a way to protect it from everyday wear

REVIEW – The Vosteed Labrador pocket knife is a new addition to the ever-growing Vosteed lineup. When I first heard about it, it sounded too big to be comfortably carried as a pocket knife. The blade is almost 4″ long and the knife is almost 9″ overall. I’m not one for pocket swords but I

REVIEW – Ever since Covid hit in 2020, I have not had a chance to take a multi-day vacation outside of the state of Texas where I live. I am stoked about a 5-day hiking trip I planned for Utah in May. One of the things that I always carry in my backpack is a

REVIEW – Although I have been back in the office for a while, I have not attended any in-person meetings. Here in NY, we have experienced several waves of Covid variants, and right now in the middle of the flu season, we have been experiencing what is called the triple threat: FLu, Covid, and RSV.

REVIEW – Have you seen the Dash mini waffle makers that were very popular a year or two ago? That’s not all Dash makes when it comes to small affordable kitchen gear. Today I am going to show you the Dash Everyday Stand Mixer. Ready, set, mix! What is it? The Dash Everyday Stand Mixer

REVIEW – I’ve been sitting in front of a computer for my daily work for decades. I’ve tried a variety of standing desks, and treadmill desks, but one thing I’ve never tried is a footrest. That changed recently when I was given the opportunity to review the Vitrazza Leather Footrest. Let’s lean back, prop up
Vitrazza Leather Footrest review – Surf in comfort! Read More
REVIEW – Security, both physical and cyber, is always top of mind for me when traveling. This is primarily because I am a paranoid New Yorker but also due to the fact that I work for a software company that is laser focused on cybersecurity. At this point in time, it’s no longer a question
REVIEW – I am guessing that by now, most of the Gadgeteer readers following my e-bike reviews have seen a few recent reviews from me. I am deep into the e-everything phase having reviewed quite a few clean energy products. I am also getting more into bike riding and so looking forward to the Spring

REVIEW – A few months ago I tested the ACEMAGICIAN AMR5 mini PC and I loved it so much that it is the PC that I used most frequently in my home office for regular browsing, documents, and audio and video editing. Last month, my EDC laptop developed an issue with the power port that

REVIEW – Need to show something from your phone or laptop on a TV but don’t want to run a cable across the room? You might have an AppleTV or a TV with Airplay or Chromecast built in, but what if you don’t? What if you’re in an office environment and not everyone uses the
REVIEW – I have been a snow skier for many years, and I have been through a bunch of ski gear. I have also had my share of spills and tumbles down the mountain, and I can tell you firsthand that if you have cheap gear that doesn’t keep you warm, you will be miserable,
DOACE Heated Soft Shell Jacket review Read More
REVIEW – I watch a lot of knife reviews and unboxing videos. So, I’m always interested when a knife comes along for review. I don’t care if it’s uber-expensive or budget-minded. If I can get my hands on it, I want to use it, see the build quality, and check out the materials used. I

REVIEW – I did not upgrade my iPhone 13 ProMax when the iPhone 14 was released, so I figured that I would dress it a bit and stop using those rugged industrial cases that are known to be installed on any phone I own. This Manteiro Classic Leather iPhone 13 Pro Max Case looks like

REVIEW – There are approximately 500 new EDC flashlights released daily. (This is only a rounding error – don’t @ me!) Most of them can be defined as a cylinder with a lens on one end. Wuben has a few flashlights that break this mold, and I was sent the most recent to review –
Wuben X2 flashlight review – Honey, Wuben shrunk the flashlight! Read More
REVIEW – There’s nothing like the big-screen cinema experience or a larger-than-life sporting event. Unless you can fork over ridiculous coin for a monster flat-screen, the only way to experience 100+ inches of eye-popping glory in your home is with a projector. Xgody’s X1 Pro projector brings a big-screen punch to a wall near

REVIEW – With the recent virus fresh in our memories, I think many of us have become more aware of how much indoor air quality can affect our quality of life. Even if you don’t have pets or allergies, moving the air in your home around and filtering it can mitigate the effects of flu

REVIEW – Here I go again getting all excited and energetic about my newfound or maybe reenergized passion for bike riding and what I plan to do as a part of my weekly exercise once the New York weather breaks into a warm Springtime. If you have read my previous e-bike review, you already know

REVIEW – When it’s cold, there’s nothing like a wood fire to take the chill off the air and cheer me up. I’ve recently bought a house with a wood-burning fireplace, and am really excited to have one again, except for the irritation and mess of having to deal with the ashes. When this Yibintc

REVIEW – Coffee is life. While I’m not addicted to the point where I can’t function without it, I sure do enjoy a cup or two each day, and some of my top travel memories are discovering new coffee shops around the world. I’m fine with a standard drip-brew cup, but a well-made espresso just
