REVIEW – I love knives. A lot of us on the Gadgeteer staff do and I’m guessing you are too if you’re reading this. I love the uber expensive custom knives and the affordable folders you will actually carry on a daily basis. I’m not a knife steel nerd or snob so I’m not able […]

REVIEW – Have you ever wanted a dog that isn’t messy, doesn’t shed, only does what you tell it to, won’t chew on the furniture, and kind of obeys your voice commands? Well, the SunFounder PiDog Robot Dog Kit for Raspberry Pi is for you. The SunFounder PiDog is another great robot kit in dog
REVIEW – Vehicle interiors are notoriously difficult places to store small items, or have things near to hand. Sure, we have consoles, “glove” boxes, and little cubby holes everywhere, but when you’re at a traffic light, and just need to, say, grab a flashlight to see what the heck is rolling around on the passenger

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed several DEERC remote control cars here at The Gadgeteer, but so far all of these have been land-based remote control vehicles. Today that changes, with the DEERC Fast Brushless RC Shark Boat. I continue to regularly take out the DEERC trucks and cars that I previously reviewed and they’ve all held
REVIEW – I find myself tinkering quite a bit. We have an off-grid solar system that powers my home office and all of our outdoor lighting, with a Redodo 12V 200Ah battery as the hub. We built a camper from a cargo trailer. I’m constantly building or rewiring something. All of this involves wiring, and

REVIEW – When I was in college I got into PC gaming and had a friend help me weld custom speaker stands for a surround sound setup to enhance my gaming. Fast forward a few years (decades), and I’ve long since ditched 6+ speaker setups for my hybrid work/gaming desk setup for a couple reasons:
REVIEW – I have a confession to make. I really don’t like the kind of headphones that wrap around behind your head and then insert into your ears because they generally irritated my ears and usually hurt my head in that spot just behind your ears. So when I saw the SoundPEATS RunFree Open-Ear Sports

REVIEW – Our smartphones are becoming more integrated with our lives, even into our vehicles. We can play music, navigate to our destinations, and use apps to find less expensive gas, restaurants, and charging stations.

REVIEW – I’ve used both the original Polaroid instant camera as well as some of the newer ones. I’ve found that the pictures came out a little too “retro” looking for me.

REVIEW — I’ll admit I’ve been avoiding the electric scooter craze, but this year my son went off to college and it seems like everyone on his campus is zipping around on them. I knew it was only a matter of time before he wanted one, and now that he’s decided to move off campus,
