REVIEW – Here I am back again all excited as I get to test and review another Litheli product. In case you missed anything, so far I have reviewed the Litheli Chainsaw, Pole Saw, and Lawnmower, and I simply love their tools. This time around, I am reviewing the Litheli 40V Cordless Leaf Blower with

REVIEW – I am a firm believer that an iPad (especially the Air or Pro) could function as most people’s sole computing and media consumption device. Even more so, with all the enhancements and added functionality Apple has baked into iPadOS, keyboard and mouse support, and overall horsepower. And you could argue, the iPad Pro

REVIEW – Most of us spend 7 or more hours a night sleeping so it’s obvious that a pillow is an important “tool” that can positively or negatively affect our sleep. When it comes to pillows, I’m incredibly picky. I’ve reviewed quite a few pillows over the years only to stow them in the closet
REVIEW – If you have read much of my stuff on this website, you know that I’m pretty disappointed in “the future.” I mean, the closest thing I can get to Rosie the maid in “The Jetsons” is a robot vacuum, and dental work still involves drills like it’s 1921 instead of 2021. Recently, though,

REVIEW – I was introduced to stand mixers over 17 years ago while creating a wedding registry at Target. The eye-watering price of the brands available back then was a shock, and many of the units on the market still cost a small fortune. However, our wedding-gift stand mixer has lasted all these years, lending

REVIEW: Elecrow Industries has created four children’s STEM toy sets. I’m digging into the Explorer Kit for 8+ year olds with assistance from my visiting resident grandson, PB. I’ll also report on one of the kits that has projects that require coding, the Inventor Kit. What is it Crowbits are Science Technology Engineering & Math

REVIEW — I don’t know about anyone else, but my webcam is one of those peripherals that went from relative obscurity to the center of my universe over the course of the last year. And although I have a webcam in my MS Surface, it makes me yellow. I don’t know why, and I don’t

REVIEW – Over the past few years, my family (and there are just two of us!) has accumulated a wealth of devices that need charging. We have charging stands located throughout the house and they are all sorts of different configurations. One thing in common that they all have is that they take up counter

REVIEW – I just returned from my first “away” vacation since May 2019! To say that it was a long time coming is an understatement. Before we left, I had to deal with the age-old question – which bag do I take on the trip? As luck would have it, I had an easy answer

REVIEW – An integral part of any Everyday Carry (EDC) is a dependable flashlight. After all, if you can’t see what you’re doing the rest of your gear is pretty much useless. Over the years I’ve accumulated a good number of flashlights, most of them practically bombproof and reliable, some of them not so much.

REVIEW – I guess you could say that I’m obsessed with meal replacement bars. Let me preface that by saying that I’m obsessed with low-carb keto-friendly meal replacement bars. Why? Because they are an easy option for a quick breakfast, or lunch when you don’t feel like taking the time to cook and for me,

REVIEW – I’ve never dabbled in 3d printing before, one big reason being that it seemed to be a complex hobby with a steep learning curve. I’ve eyeballed some cheaper 3d printers in the past but never pulled the trigger after reading reviews where they were either limited in functionality, or not as beginner-friendly as

REVIEW – Even when we don’t carry a lot these days, we still carry a lot. Usually, that involves a big old smartphone plus a wallet. Many times you don’t need the whole wallet – just a driver’s license, a credit card, and perhaps a couple of small bills. If only there was a way

REVIEW – Germs and bacteria are everywhere. They are even on one thing that can kill them – a soap dispenser. We find hands-free soap dispensers in many public restrooms, but I’ve only recently had one in my home. It’s the Simplehuman rechargeable liquid soap dispenser. Let’s check it out. What is it? The Simplehuman

REVIEW – Just before the pandemic hit in 2020, I reviewed the wonderful (but flawed) Master & Dynamic MW07 Plus earphones—easily one of the best sounding wireless earphones at any price. The one weakness was too subtle (for me) active noise canceling (ANC). It just wasn’t very effective. As the old saying goes, time marches

REVIEW – SnapFresh has been growing its product line of battery-powered tools. I recently reviewed their cordless drill, and in this review, I’m taking a look at their cordless impact wrench. What is it? This is a consumer-grade, battery-powered, cordless, brushless impact wrench that uses the same 20V/2Ah battery found in other SnapFresh tools, such

REVIEW – What is the measure of a person? Or, what is the measure of anything? Monocarbon wants carbon fiber to be featured heavily in the measure of things with their new carbon fiber dual scale ruler. Let’s see if it measures up. What is it? This is a ruler. It has two scales to
