REVIEW – A lot of things have changed this year, not least of all being a huge portion of the workforce going remote (myself and spouse included). Many of us previously had access to $1000+ office printers but are now using cheap ones at home which may not be up to commercial office standards. The […]

REVIEW – We’ve covered several knives from WESN here at The Gadgeteer, and I’ve been impressed with the ones I’ve reviewed. Because of that, I was excited to review the WESN Henry, a modern take on a classic folding-blade pocketknife. Let’s take a look. What is it? The WESN Henry is a classic style, folding-blade

REVIEW – The move to remote work brought about by the current pandemic has forced a lot of us to be on-camera much more than previously. For those of us who don’t have an area we can use to create a camera-friendly background, virtual screens have become a life-saver. But many things in the actual

REVIEW – It is the time of the year when the winter season is ramping up in the North East of the United States. I live near the ocean and power outages are par for the course. Having endured the outages for over 2 decades, I know the value of having a few powerful/capable Power

REVIEW – Tablets abound everywhere you turn. You see them in stores, in schools, in businesses, and they have become so affordable that it seems like every family has 1 or more scattered throughout the house. My own family has multiple tablets in both iOS and Android, in varying sizes, and we use them for

REVIEW – My large living room and TV with weak speakers makes for a poor entertainment experience. I’ve been thinking about getting a soundbar, so when the SAKOBS soundbar review offer came along, I thought I would try it first. What is it? The SAKOBS soundbar is a 16-inch wired and wireless soundbar. What’s in

REVIEW – Many of the projects that I work on require weekly road trips and a complete and capable gear bag. Recently, I have been testing devices like Raspberry Pis and I need to walk with a portable but capable keyboard. I also find the need to have something that is ergonomic so that I

REVIEW – I started shooting videos back in my inline street skating days where we would skate alongside our rollerblading buddies as they skated a line going from trick to trick. So, filming with an actual video camera with a built-in scene stabilizer really helped to steady the footage as we skated on streets with

REVIEW – In 2019, I reviewed the Jackery 240 Portable Power Station. This incredibly useful power backup has provided our family with multiple recharges for smartphones, tablets, and laptops—especially during frequent and sometimes violent summer storms in Central Florida where we live. However, 240 watts of backup power only gets you so far. Recently, portable

REVIEW – I rarely use cash anymore, so all I need is a thin minimalist wallet that can hold my most used credit cards. For the last 4 years, I’ve been using the Identity Card Wallet, which is no longer being made or sold. The one I have now is still perfectly usable, but I

REVIEW – I have portable power banks everywhere in my life… in every car, my office, multiple rooms in my house, and I give them as gifts to friends and family so that I know I’ll always have access to one when I am with other people! Ha! Anyway, I love these things and have
Jiga 30000mAh power bank review – It even has a built-in flashlight! Read More
REVIEW – Raise your hand if you’re quite over the fact that every meeting and relationship that used to take place in person is now a video-conference. The fuzzy video, poor lighting, and Carl, who can’t ever seem to keep his mike muted are grating on everyone’s last nerve. (You hear that, Carl!!) Well, one

REVIEW – I’ve always advocated that you should “use the tool that works best for you.” As part of that workflow, I use various devices depending on the task and my environment. When the review offer for the Vastking Kingpad SA10 came along, I thought it would be a great time to expose myself to

REVIEW – Living in Michigan, having warm outerwear in the winter is essential. I’m not a big fan of bulky winter coats, and I love to wear hoodies. I’ve tried vests as an option before, but they were either really bulky or too thin to provide enough warmth. Recently, I was allowed to test out

REVIEW – If there’s one thing that really degrades an online gaming experience, it’s poor audio. The Blue Microphones Yeti X World of Warcraft Edition professional streaming USB microphone review offer came along, and I knew it was a “must try.” What is it?

REVIEW – The Aurora Talentum Finesse is the second fountain pen I have ever used. I originally reviewed the Namiki Falcon fountain pen way back in 2013 and to be honest, have only used it occasionally to handwrite a letter or note on special occasions. Really no fault of its own, I really like it

REVIEW – I live near the ocean, and regardless of season, I experience power outages. Over the years, I have purchased and tried numerous power banks with the hope that having enough of them would be the solution for handling the power and charge/recharge option for my numerous devices and for sometimes extended blackouts. It
