REVIEW: Good things come in plain packaging. At least, that’s what I’ve been told. With the crazy state of the world today, I have been looking for a work at home solution that frees me from my desk – the mostly immobile desk. A mobile desk would allow me to work outside in the morning […]

REVIEW – I saw my first massage gun watching Kyrie Irving’s back being treated during the 2017 NBA finals. Since then, massage guns have gained popularity, features, and become much quieter. I have an Addsfit MAX deep tissue massage gun that looks very similar to a Hyperice Hypervolt. Read on to see what I think!

REVIEW – In the days of coronavirus, I’m having cinema withdrawal symptoms which include the need to sit in a dark room with a bunch of strangers, eat popcorn, and drink a gallon of cola! I decided to give Yaber’s Y30 video projector a try to see if it could help ease my big-screen fix!

REVIEW – Pre-COVID, my breakfasts during the workweek usually consisted of a protein bar, drive through breakfast taco, or nothing at all. Since I have been home, I have been trying to vary my breakfast habit and cook a bit more. No, I am not on any kind of Keto diet as I don’t think

REVIEW – Our house, is a very very very fine house. (Sorry, great CSN&Y song. You can hear it in your head right now, am I right?) Our house is also a very dusty house with a dog that sheds constantly. So we go through vacuum bags regularly for our upright vacuum and we have

REVIEW – Whether we like it or not, dongles, docks, and hubs are here with us to stay. With most laptop manufactures eliminating the classic suite of ports many of us still need, others have stepped in to create a wide variety of solutions to fill this gap. Now I love a sleek and slim

REVIEW – Everyone knows that all tower fans pretty much do the same thing—they help make a room feel cooler. What differentiates one fan from another is price, features, and build quality. Taotronics is a company that makes all kinds of stuff, such as audio gear, lighting, and … fans. Their newest tower fan is

REVIEW – When I think about whether someone needs a portable digital audio converter (DAC) for their smartphone or not, I’m left with two more questions: “Will it allow me to use my older, wired headphones with my smartphone?” Or “What the heck is a DAC anyway?” Hopefully, in this review of the Shanling UP4

REVIEW – I spend hours each day in front of my computers either performing the duties of my daily job or tasks related to my other interests like photography, videography, podcasting, etc. I require the best access to several USB devices that I use as tools along with devices like a headphone, etc. The need

REVIEW – If you’re a fan of wireless charging like I am, you quickly find that some wireless chargers can be frustrating to use. Have you ever put your phone on a charger expecting it to … well… charge and it doesn’t because you don’t have the placement right? So then you scoot the phone

REVIEW – It took me many years to buy my first smartwatch. I have always been partial to large and heavy mechanical automatic watches that have a sleek and/or industrial look. A couple of years ago, I purchased my first smartwatch that was made by Fossil and it is large and boasts a design that

REVIEW – Yes, you’re right. I’ve never heard of TREBLAB either. In the age of lookalike Bluetooth speakers and unknown brands, I usually stick with the “famous names”. My son has started listening to music while working out, so I thought this might make a nice spare speaker. But first, some tire kicking! What is

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – Do you like minimalist wallets? If you do, I have one of these most minimal wallets you’ll be able to find. It’s called the Smallet and it’s a small wallet (get it?) that is currently seeking funding on Kickstarter. Let’s check it out. What is it? The Smallet is a wallet that

REVIEW – I’ve enjoyed testing and writing about many smart home gadgets, home automation devices, security systems, and dozens of security cameras, over the years. One thing that I’ve always found to be a problem is that each device I’ve continued to use has required its own separate app which means you have to search

REVIEW – Back in the 60’s there was a cartoon called The Jetsons, which gave us a look into the all the conveniences of life that would come with a futuristic space age. Perhaps the best character in this show was Rosie, the family’s robotic maid and housekeeper. As a kid, I looked forward to

REVIEW – I have not been a gamer since I owned an Xbox 360 many years ago. However, recently, at the age of 52, I got the gamer itch again. So, a few months ago, I purchased an Xbox One X gaming system. Gaming has changed a lot since then, there are all kinds of

REVIEW – Many of us have been spending much more time inside with family during this lockdown. Over the spring, it was nice to have outside air filtering in, but that also meant pollen. And now, with summer, comes no outside air and stuffy pollutants. Happily, I was recently sent the Taotronics Wide Coverage Air

REVIEW – One cool thing about getting to review different gadgets is discovering products you would have previously ignored and now wonder how you could live without. They become that integral to your daily life. One such product is the portable power station. These small, portable monsters can turn a short-term power outage from an
REVIEW – Adding ports for a laptop or tablet that needs more connectivity options is part of Gadgeteer life. There’s even a name for it: DongleTown. Many newer laptops and tablets have USB-C ports (maybe exclusively), but you have an entire collection of things that predate this plug, but need to use them. You can
