Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
REVIEW – Avast! There be a monster lurking beneath the surface! No, it’s not there to eat the boat, wrap its tentacles around Captain Jack Sparrow, or swallow Jonah. It’s here to clean! My mom is 81 and lives an hour away, but I’m her “pool guy,” so I was excited to review Aiper […]

REVIEW – Wow, no sooner had I reviewed the Dyson clone Dreametech T20 cordless stick vacuum cleaner when they release the updated (and upgraded) T30. The T30 has a few new features along with increased suction power, but otherwise, it’s almost identical to the T20. I’m not sure if the T30 will replace or be

REVIEW – Once again, faithful readers, I find myself in the position to be forced to get neck massages for your benefit. I hope you appreciate the lengths we go here for you at The Gadgeteer! SKG recently released their K5 Pro neck TENS massager and I’m putting it through its paces. Let’s see if

REVIEW – The TaoTronics air cooler is not a portable air conditioner. It’s a fan, water circulation pump system and absorption panel that pulls warm air through it, evaporates moisture and then blows out cool, humid air. What is it? It’s an evaporative air cooler for small areas, which can be used with or without

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – In the hyper-connected world we live in, it is not an uncommon scenario for us to be working across multiple devices simultaneously, and doing that while on the go. That level of productivity often comes with compromises – you can focus on one device that is handy, but have to physically shift

REVIEW – The market for wall chargers is growing since some portables don’t include adapters (to reduce cost, standardize international packaging, etc.) The RAVPower PD power 40W 2-port wall charger is designed to meet modern device power demands in a small form factor. I have one to review. Read on to see what I think!

REVIEW – I am a huge fan of solar lights and I am always on Amazon looking for good lights that not only perform well but can also be used in a decorative fashion. From just a quick glance a the box, I knew that I would love these Litom Outdoor Solar Lights if they

REVIEW – Greetings, Human. I come from the future, and I bring the bass! The Gravastar Venus is a funky little Bluetooth speaker that looks like it came right out of the Matrix. But don’t underestimate its power, Earthling. This little guy brings some serious thump. To the review! What is it? It’s a desktop

REVIEW – Toilets. We all have them. We all use them. We all have to clean them. Raise your hand if cleaning the toilet is in your top ten favorite things to do? But cleaning the toilet is one of those things that needs to happen regularly. Goodpapa recently released an upgraded toilet cleaning brush

REVIEW – When it comes to gaming, I’m old school. I prefer a physical controller vs. onscreen touch controls. The GameSir X2 Bluetooth is a gaming controller that has been designed especially for smartphones and it effectively turns your smartphone into a gaming console in a form factor like a Nintendo Switch. Let’s take a

REVIEW – If you haven’t used a MagSafe charger yet, it’s hard to describe how satisfying that magnetic snap-into-place function is. The magnetic attraction is strong enough that if you were to quickly grab your phone and start to walk away, the puck stays attached and you could knock over some stuff on your desk.

REVIEW – Golf. It’s a beautiful, but frustrating game. Rumor has it that it was named “golf” because all the other four-letter words were already taken. To execute good shots, along with good swing mechanics, you need to know how far to hit the ball. Determining that involves knowledge of the course, visibility of available

REVIEW – This review was an interesting challenge. I was expecting the Vastking K100 Windows laptop to fall short of my expectations based on the spec-sheet, but it surprised me in both good and bad ways. If you’re looking for an entry level laptop that is “good enough”, this might tick the boxes for you,

REVIEW – Is the TaoTronics TT-AP006 room air purifier the solution to my allergy problem? Can it make the air in a teenage boy’s room breathable to adults? Let’s put it to the test. What is it? The TaoTronics TT-AP006 Air Purifier is a small(ish) room air purifier that uses a three-stage replaceable filter to

REVIEW – Although I grew up as a Scout (and made Eagle) I’ve never used a hydration bladder. For me, it was always canteens. My son is training for a 50 mile hike this summer, so he’s got many training hikes planned. I thought I’d have him try it out! But first, a look at

REVIEW– As they say it’s 5- o’clock somewhere! I am a huge fan of everyday items that have quality. I’m talking about your great grandmother’s cast iron skillet, your great grandfather’s turn of the century pocket watch, and quite possibly this Elevated Craft cocktail shaker. This gorgeous, stainless steel shaker is well constructed and

SPONSORED REVIEW – In this review, we’re taking a close look at the Bluetti AC200P 2000Wh portable power station. This is truly one of the most reliable portable power sources that you can get on the market, and that’s because of its enormous power capacity, many options for powering and charging devices, and it also

REVIEW – We’ve reviewed quite a few Mobvoi products here at the Gadgeteer over the years with their smartwatches primarily focusing on fitness, ruggedness, and bang for the buck. In such a crowded tech-space, they continue to hold their own by improving their smartwatch hardware, performance, and user experience. This year is no different, the

REVIEW – It has been more than a year since the Covid pandemic started, and shortly after it started, I began working from home. As time passed, teleworking and video conferencing have become the norm, and devices that support these types of meetings via Microsoft Teams, Zoom, etc have been in demand. In response to
REVIEW – As our digital lives progress, we suddenly find we have a network of things that we are carrying around. Phones, earbuds, watches, tablets – and everything needs recharging at some point. Since we aren’t yet able to leverage the Universal Will to Become to power all our things, we have to pause every so
