REVIEW – Each week, I record an episode for my podcast 247 Real Talk. On many occasions when I have a guest on the show, I usually read from their media pitch kit. Since my office/studio is usually dimly lit, I often squint to see what I am reading. A nice desk-mounted LED light the […]

REVIEW – A little while ago, I wrote up a news article about a new hybrid electric/mechanical watch by The Electricianz. The Electricianz fancy themselves as creators of unusual watches that feature interesting colors and lighting. Electricity keeps the world moving. The Electricianz is on a mission to put that energy in the spotlight. We

REVIEW – I ride my motorcycle almost every weekend. I always do a safety check on my bike before I ride and make sure the tire pressures are set where they need to be. Unlike a car, a flat tire on the road can result in a very long wait for a tow, or even

REVIEW – A short time ago, I used my flashlight to help a cinema patron find their smartphone. We all have “flashlights” built into our smartphones, but they are not much good if they are hiding under a chair and their ultra-wide beam angles don’t work well for many uses. For this reason and many

REVIEW – Have you ever been wearing your boring old sunglasses and thought “I wish these would auto dim in this bright light, or be less shaded in this shady area”? And also thought “ooh and they should let me take phone calls and play my music and podcasts too”? If so, you’ve come to
REVIEW – Three months ago, I reviewed the Master & Dynamic MW08 True Wireless Earphones and said that they are better than M&D’s previous MW07 Plus earphones in every way. Well, M&D has never been one to sit on their success for long. In a couple of short months, they’ve already introduced the MW08 Sport

REVIEW: The THRUNITE BSS V4 flashlight has a turbo mode that might be called ‘cigarette lighter mode’, so be careful. But there are plenty of modes and functions so, once the hand learns its way around this medium size light you have a lot of lumen power at your disposal. Or, very little light, if

REVIEW: With literally every kind of cell phone holder out there, I have been struggling to find one that fits my needs. For me, the vent clips don’t work and I don’t like it attached to my windshield or dashboard. So how does the Cell Phone Seat fair up? What is it The Cell Phone

REVIEW – Fitness trends seem to come and go with a variable degree of longevity, but some trendy devices have the science and data to become mainstays. Are the recent wave of massage guns, like the Ekrin Athletics B37, muscle miracles or fitness flops? What is it? The Ekrin Athletics B37 Massage Gun is a

REVIEW – In my never-ending quest to always be prepared for any eventuality I’ve accumulated quite a few portable power units. Large and small, these power packs are strewn about my apartment, stored in pockets and backpacks, or stashed away in bins patiently awaiting the apocalypse. None of the many battery packs I own though

REVIEW – A reliable string trimmer is an indispensable tool for yard work. However, gas models are loud and create noxious fumes, and corded electric units are inconvenient. The Greenworks 24V 12-inch string trimmer with edger mode is a lightweight, feature-rich, battery-powered tool. I have one to review. Read on to see what I think!

REVIEW – Portable chargers are getting smaller! I received one of those recently to review – the Anker Nano II 65W GaN II PPS Fast Charger Adapter. It’s AWESOME! It’s so small and charges my Lenovo Yoga 730 laptop and my Pixel 2 XL phone in the same amount of time (or less) as their
