REVIEW – Our kids are in college now, but one day they’ll graduate—or so we hope—and they’ll head out on their own. They’ll get a job, get a car, and get an apartment. As a parent, I’m always trying to look ahead and help my kids to figure out what they’ll need to kit out

REVIEW – For many years, audio has been a big part of my business and business ventures. Whether for my videography gigs, audio podcasts, or other audio recordings, I am very critical of the sound. I use mics like the Shure SM7B and some other Rode mics, and I am always on the prowl for

REVIEW – Twice a day, feeding time at the zoo occurs at my house. About an hour before feeding time my cats will start begging and screaming for food. If I dare to be more than a minute late, chaos ensues. I trip over three screaming cats and one happy dog in an attempt to

REVIEW – Phones and tablets are considerably more powerful than they were just a few short years ago. Now you can turn many phones and tablets into your main/only computer. But to make the experience as easy and comfortable as possible, you’re going to need a hub. That’s where the Foxdock USB-C hub is a

REVIEW – I am not your normal female in that I do not enjoy lugging a purse around with me every day. I am very minimalist when it comes to how I carry around cash and cards. I tend to stick to minimalist wallets that fit easily in my front pocket (even those lame, not

REVIEW – adding a measuring tape to your EDC is a great idea because you never know when you need to check a measurement while shopping in a store. But no one wants to carry a huge clip-op tape measure on your belt. That’s where the TEC Accessories Ti-Tape Titanium Tape Measure is the perfect

REVIEW – After a few years of testing and reviewing wireless charging devices, I have lost track of how many I have tried. Most of the solutions I tested either offer a single wireless charging option in an awkward or unbalanced position, or they try to offer multiple options, but on a footprint that is

REVIEW – There are so many small Bluetooth speakers available, it’s hard to not say to yourself, “Oh, screw it!”, and buy the first one that sells for what you want to spend. That kind of thinking could be a mistake because there is a lot of good to great speakers selling at good to

REVIEW – At some point in the past and future, we were and will be digital nomads. In that future time, we will need tools to keep our gadgets charged and connected. Pitaka has released a Travel Kit into their MagEZ line of products to make these tasks much easier. I look forward to our

REVIEW – I’m a pre-diabetic and you might be one too and not even know it. Diabetes is a disease where a high level of sugar/glucose is circulating through your bloodstream.

REVIEW – If you thought Fluidstance didn’t have further tricks up their sleeves for ways to optimize your workspace, think again. This time they’ve introduced Lift, a powder-coated steel laptop stand that integrates a whiteboard. I previously reviewed and really liked Slope (their angled whiteboard that sits in front of a monitor) and was excited

REVIEW – In addition to working from home, COVID has caused many of us to take matters into our own hands (literally) when it comes to getting our hair cut. I don’t enjoy getting my hair cut because I’m cheap and don’t like paying $20 + tip more for a haircut that takes less than 15

REVIEW – I love a good digital picture frame. I mean, other than using my photos as my screensaver, I don’t see them otherwise. Unfortunately, a “good” digital picture frame is kind of hard to find if my experience is anything to go by. I seem to have a knack for finding the frames that

REVIEW – When Apple announced MagSafe for the iPhone 12 series they mentioned that more 3rd party cases would be following in the coming months. They’ve finally started to trickle out and I couldn’t help but wonder how some of these might compare to Apple’s own cases. Nomad Goods has updated their Rugged Case and

I have one to review. Read on to see what I think!

REVIEW – What features do you like your EDC flashlight to have? Do you want it to be rechargeable? Want a display that tells you how long the battery will last at each brightness level? Want it to be brighter than the sun? The Nitecore T4K might not be quite as bright as the sun,

REVIEW: Lacking ports on your portable? Friends with certain brands tell me they wish there were more attachment options in their laptops. Around here the PC laptop has plenty of ports but who wants to plug every single thing in, every time you sit down to compute? The OWC USB-C Travel Dock E is a
