REVIEW – Desk lamps were a necessary evil for most workplaces. Back in the day, desk lamps used either incandescent or fluorescent bulbs. These typically produced poor quality, glare inducing, and potentially flickering light that created eye strain and could cause headaches. With the advent of LED lighting, the quality of the light produced has

REVIEW – Living in a big city like New York City, one would assume that we have cell towers on just about every few blocks and that the cell signal here should be fantastic. However, this is not the case and even in well-populated areas I seem to drive through many zones where the cell

REVIEW – Our household is one of mountain bikers, skaters, runners and climbers. It should come as no surprise that we are frequently sore and often nursing some adverse result of our beloved activities. We have a variety of foam and hand rollers, tens units and deep tissue leverage devices along with the requisite hot

REVIEW – I hate fan noise. When I built a PC, I went through great pains to pick quiet fans and components. When the bathroom fan got noisy, I replaced the motor. If I got a fancy fan to keep me cool, I wouldn’t keep it if I found the noise distracting. It’s time to

REVIEW – My normal bicycle ride routine is to employ a cutting-edge, high-tech case to protect my phone and wallet from both rain and sweat: the classic zip-loc bag. It usually lasts for two or three bike rides, and is then retired to contain nails in the garage, or small items going in the

REVIEW – I like to use YouTube to learn new songs on my ukulele, but it can be a pain to take my hands off my uke to rewind a video to see a certain section again. That’s where something like the Vidami Video Looper Pedal comes in so handy. It lets you control Youtube

REVIEW – Dark. It is something to be eradicated in a home. If you have a too-dark corner, a floor lamp that shines up as well as diffusing light all around can turn that dark corner into a design highlight. BoostArea has just such a solution with its 9-Watt LED floor lamp. Is it a
