Kingston DataTraveler Max USB 3.2 Gen 2 flash drive review – Massive storage in a flash

Kingston DataTraveler

REVIEW – If you own a computer, you’ve probably used a thumb drive, or more accurately, a flash drive. They’ve been around forever, but they are (in)famous for lacking in memory, expensive (for the larger capacity versions) and slooooow to transfer data. Recently, that’s all been changing as drives are getting larger and more affordable.

Wellue ECG/EKG Heart Monitor review – A wearable heart monitor with realtime tracking

Wellue ECGMonitor 1

REVIEW – As a younger-ish adult being told you have a heart condition is pretty scary. I was diagnosed with tachycardia during a routine check-up. This means my heart randomly races for no apparent reason. I am also asymptomatic so I don’t even notice when it occurs. Monitoring my heart rate accurately became very important

imalent ms08 8

DXRacer Air Breathable Mesh Gaming Chair review – no more hot buns

dx air 26 2

REVIEW – Most of you are probably familiar with “gaming chairs” or “racing chairs”, given their massive popularity in recent times. You can’t watch a streaming gamer without seeing an eye-catching chair at some point, but in my experience looks don’t always equal comfort. I’ve tried so many different office chairs over the years that

Kovol KV PC001 4

REVIEW – As more and more devices switch over to Type-C (USB-C) charging ports, the need for multi-port high wattage chargers have become more significant. Laptops, battery banks, flashlights, and wireless microphones are just some of the Type-C devices that I often find myself charging quite often. I decided to see if the KOVOL Sprint

AfterShokz Aeropex Open-Ear Endurance Headphones review

Aftershokz 3

REVIEW – If my memory serves me correctly, several years ago I purchased Bone Conduction headphones from AfterShokz. I loved their design and function but I also remember them being a bit hard and rigid and that they would hurt in places around my head after wearing them for a while. I also remember parting

Unitek 18

                   REVIEW – USB was introduced in 1996 and has since taken over the world. Very few portable electronics are not equipped with a USB charging port. But how to keep them all charged?

ZEEKER P10 smartphone review – A big battery with a smartphone built in

ZEEKER P10 21

REVIEW: At 11.4 ounces the Zeeker P10 is a hefty cell phone. It’s heavy duty. Emphasis on heavy. It has a 6000 mAh battery so it would be. It is also submersible. No, it takes underwater pictures. Continue conversations in the bath, anyone? Could the Zeeker P10 be your everyday smartphone with specs like this?

REVIEW – I walk for 20 minutes 2 times a day on the treadmill and do strength training 4 times a week using a TotalGym. I’ve been doing this for years and although it helps to keep me active, and relatively fit, doing the same thing day after day, week after week, month after month,
