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 – I’ve been watching the CampStove products from BioLite since they were first introduced in 2012. I was enamored by the concept of charging a device using only wood fuel. When an opportunity to test the latest BioLite CampStove Complete Cook Kit came along, I was absolutely delighted to try it out. What is

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

REVIEW – The daily grind. For most, that means going to work. For some, however, that means the nightly activity of grinding teeth. Grinding can cause serious issues and even tooth loss. Dentists will make bite guards for you, at a cost, and if you don’t have good dental insurance, that cost can be high.

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – Mechanical keyboards have been around in computer systems for many years, varying in style based on switch types, keycaps, key travel, clickiness, sound, height, etc. Many options are available from pre-made keyboards to kits you can build yourself. RGB lighting has also become a standard feature on a lot of computer accessories
REVIEW – Now that everyone has a high-quality smartphone camera in their pocket all the time, we’re faced with the question: What do we do with all these photos? Sure you can text or post them.

REVIEW – Carry-on suitcases are a dime a dozen. Everybody makes one. They all do pretty much the same thing – hold your junk and fit in the overhead bin on an aircraft. Why should we care about any new ones that come on the market? To be noticed in the fray, it would need

REVIEW – If you’ve ever eaten at a high-end steakhouse, one of the things they regularly tout is dry-aged beef. Dry-aging is a process to improve the quality of beef. It takes a long time and a serious space commitment in a refrigerator, and therefore, costs more. That’s why you typically only see it at

REVIEW – In late 2020, I reviewed the Generark HomePower One, a beast of a portable solar generator at 1000 watt-hours strong. I also chided Generark, because the HomePower One is a clone of the Japanese version of the Jackery Explorer 1000. That’s not a slight, because, with its fold-down handle, the Japanese Jackery is
REVIEW – Tell me this doesn’t look like the long rumored/envisioned/just announced 14” MacBook Pro. The designers at Brydge have done it again…getting ever closer to transforming your overpowered iPad Pro into a touchscreen MacBook Pro. For years now, Brydge has been creating Bluetooth keyboard cases that add greater functionality to Apple’s flagship tablets. For

REVIEW – I’ve been searching for the perfect headphones or earbuds. My overly-sensitive ears typically reject earbuds, although I’ve tested some “acceptable” ones. I had the opportunity to test something different – bone conduction headphones. I’ve never tried anything like this, so let’s give a listen and see if this is the holy grail of
