REVIEW – As I get older, I find the need to wear my reading glasses whenever I am working on my computer, which is for many hours each day. I have also found that when I work at night, I need a dedicated light over the monitor and keyboard so that I can see the […]

REVIEW – Now that I have another driver (with a fourth starting this summer), I’ve been on the lookout for a high-quality dash cam for my son’s car to serve as another set of eyes in the event of a collision or other incident while he is on his way back and forth to school.

REVIEW – A couple of months ago, I reviewed the Artiphon INSTRUMENT 1 and now I’m back with another musical instrument from Artiphon. I enjoyed testing the INSTRUMENT 1 but found that it was more than I needed in a music-making device. Lucky for me, Artiphon makes another device that is much smaller and has

REVIEW – When we were kids, my sister and I enjoyed watching birds from our bedroom windows. We each kept notebooks where we recorded the birds that we would see. Dorky? Yeah, but we loved it and it was before I even knew that bird watching was a thing. When I was offered the Netvue

REVIEW – Here we go again with another Litheli product test and review. This time around, I am checking out the LitheLi 40V Cordless Brushless Snowblower. Last winter I shoveled through at least 3 sizeable snowstorms, and I vowed that I would not do the same this year. In early October of this year, Litheli

REVIEW – The Denqir Mini Chainsaw is made for limb pruning and small tree cutting when loppers aren’t powerful enough for the task. But it can cut wood up to about 3”-5” diameter, depending on which blade is attached. With two rechargeable batteries included in the kit you could cut a lot of wood before

REVIEW – Thus far I have been very successful at remodeling my basement and one specific reason is that I am a guy who believes in having just about every relevant tool and a few that may not be relevant but can be invaluable when trying to do something slightly “irregular” or outside of the

REVIEW – Nomad has been making their Base Station product for a few years now. They’ve been able to stay true to a design theme while varying materials, footprint and Apple Watch compatibility. Magnetic alignment is the addition this time around and while that may seem minor or trivial, it makes a pretty big difference

REVIEW – I love the look of leather jackets. However, where I live in south Texas we have a winter that cannot make up its mind. One day we are in the ’80s, then the next day we have highs in the 40s. The cold snaps often don’t last more than a couple of days

REVIEW – Even though I am a software programmer, I prefer to keep my life organized both digitally and on paper. However, I am very particular with how things are laid out and categorized so finding the right planner is hard for me. Golden Coil’s custom planner is perfect for me as it is fully

REVIEW – If you’ve ever thought about buying a drone, a lot of questions may have crossed your mind. How much should I spend? What if it crashes? Do I need GPS? Do I need a license? Is it hard to master? Sooo many questions. Until now, I was that person. I had never

REVIEW – Does the Amazfit GTS 3 smart / fitness watch compete with big name brands? Amazfit has been around for a while and has lots of models from which to choose. I count 30 smart / fitness devices they’ve made or still make. The current state of the GTS 3 watch and its app

REVIEW – When it comes to my kicks, I’m super picky. My shoes have to feel great on my feet and look great too. Kiziks shoes do both and then there’s the fact that you can put them on and take them off completely hands-free. Spoiler alert, these shoes are awesome. But let’s do a

REVIEW – Over the years, I’ve been putting off trying many little things in life, and as I get older decided to make at least some of that bucket list a reality. From hot yoga to seeing more of the world, the clock is ticking and it’s time to start making things happen. So when

REVIEW – As a techie nerd, it was a foregone conclusion that once I purchased a house it would be a technical maze of gadgets that would attempt to or would automate as many tasks and conveniences as possible. One such category is security cameras and I seem to be so obsessed with them that

REVIEW – The WUBEN H5 Multifunctional Clip Flashlight is a versatile flashlight that comes with a unique, well-made clip device you’ve never seen before.

REVIEW – I like to listen to music and podcasts but I don’t like wires getting in the way. The convenience of Bluetooth audio has made this so much better in the last ten to fifteen years. Bluetooth audio quality has never been known to be great but the convenience made it worth the tradeoff
