CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – As a huge advocate of Bullet Journaling, and journaling in general, I take a lot of notes. I go through several of my favorite Leuchtturm1917 notebooks each year and even more Schmidt ink refills.

REVIEW: The ThruNite TH30 V2 LED headlamp is durable and versatile. It gave me more than enough light to mow safely in the dark. (Sometimes you just gotta.)

REVIEW – Last January I reviewed the Flexispot Comhar standing desk and I really liked it, but my son decided he needed it, so I gave it to him. It was just as well. That desk was hard to keep clean and I am a bit of a slob, so it wasn’t a great choice

REVIEW – It’s weird reviewing a small portable power station right after testing a monster power generator—the Generark HomePower 2 power station. But if you’re serious about being able to weather storms (pun intended), then smaller generators can be as useful as their larger, more powerful cousins. Sometimes, you just need something you can easily

REVIEW – If you own an iPad, chances are that you also own or wish you owned an Apple Pencil. A stylus is a great accessory for an iPad especially if you enjoy creating art or writing on your tablet. The only problem is that the Apple Pencil has a $129 price tag. OUCH! Is
REVIEW – When I was very young, I discovered the music books that my mom had used when she took piano lessons as a child. I used those books along with very minimal help to teach myself to play a few songs on the Baldwin piano that we had in our living room. I later

REVIEW – If you’re anything like me, you always want/need more storage on your device. Certain fruit-themed brands charge a massive premium for larger storage options so many of us end up with very limited hard drives on our computers or tablets. Satechi has previously helped with that gap by providing external USB-C SSD (solid
