REVIEW – If you’ve ever wanted to learn to play an instrument but were intimidated with all the keys on a piano or guitars with 6 strings, you should consider trying a ukulele. They are easy to learn, don’t take up a lot of room (unless you get addicted and start collecting them), and they […]

REVIEW – I’ve been using an old-school flatbed scanner at work for years, but I don’t like using it. Mine was dusty and slow, so I was eager to test out the Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1500.  Did it make me a happy camper? What is it? The Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1500 is a compact, top-fed desktop scanner

REVIEW – I’ll be real honest here, air quality in my home wasn’t something I spent a lot of time considering before I got to review the Kaiterra Laser Egg+ CO2. Let’s delve into this device and see how it can make your day to day life a little better. What is it? This is

REVIEW – Since I started gaming, I have been using a headset with a microphone attached. The headsets themselves were not cheap so I figured the microphones would be enough, yet, when I see streamers, the have a dedicated microphone. Eventually, curiosity got the better of me, so I checked out the Blue Yeti X

REVIEW – After a seemingly endless supply of Braven product to review, things kinda dried up when Zagg purchased Braven from Incipio. That’s now changing as a revived Braven has introduced four new portable Bluetooth speakers this year alone ranging in price from $40-$400. Each speaker boasts of built-in ruggedness to handle any weather conditions

REVIEW – Over the past year, I have tested and reviewed a few security cameras and with a few exceptions, I have been pleased with them. Recently, there were a few accidents on the street in front of my home and I decided that it would be nice to have a camera facing the street.

REVIEW – The Gadgeteer is called that for a reason, we report on and review gadgets, which begs the question—what makes a gadget? When is a gadget not a gadget? I wondered about that when I received a new headphone stand to review—the Grovemade wood headphone stand. Is it technically a gadget, or not? What

REVIEW – In the world of photography and videography, a lot of time is spent editing photos and videos. There are major industry tools/applications that most photographers/videographers use, but there are also a few lesser-known applications that efficiently and effectively mirror many if not all of the features and capabilities of the much more known

REVIEW – The wallet market has exploded in the past several years, with the available range of sizes, styles, features, and other features expanding at an incredible rate. Two wallet features in which I am most interested are minimalism and durability. With their TPU-coated polymer materials and minimalist aesthetic and design, Wayfinder has a handful
REVIEW – I know a lot of people just use their smartphones as alarm clocks instead of a traditional alarm clock on the bedside table. I, however, still appreciate the standard alarm clock but want one that has Alexa built-in. I currently have an ILive Voice Activated Alarm clock with Alexa on my nightstand that

REVIEW – I have been a fan of Ergotron’s carts and stands for more than a decade and have used their clinical (healthcare) and office carts and wall mount systems at multiple institutions. When the opportunity to review a new ergonomic educational product came up, I enthusiastically volunteered to review it. The LearnFit desk is

 REVIEW – Ageing sucks. I mean, it beats the alternative, but wow – who knew so many things can all hurt at the same time? As a nearly 60-year-old, I find that bowling, playing golf, pickleball, and water volleyball regularly makes various body parts and areas hurt. Am I just supposed to make various

REVIEW – Phone gear and accessories are normally not described as beautiful because the majority of them are made of black plastic. That might be the favorite color most men, but for those of you out there (men and women) who like a little your gear to look unique, check out the wood and resin

REVIEW – The TREBLAB xFIT Truly Wireless Earphones are another inexpensive wireless earbud system that boasts AAC sound protocol support and IPX6 water resistance for incidental moisture exposure.

REVIEW – As a photographer, having convenient harnesses and belts to easily and safely carry a camera and related gear has been at the top of my priority list when out on a shoot. It is important to be able to have access to multiple lenses and even a second camera without having to stop

REVIEW – I’m a journal, notebook, stationery, and pen addict, so if someone offers me any of the above to review, it’s crazy hard for me to resist. When the kind folks at Galen Leather Co., offered me one of their A5 Leather Zip Folios AND some of their notebooks, the word no didn’t come

REVIEW – Over the past 2 years I have tested and reviewed several wireless earbuds with results ranging from excellent to unacceptable. Now I have the opportunity to review an entirely different type of wireless audio device. The Cleer Audio Halo Smart Wearable Neck Speaker with Google Assistant is new and interesting. Let’s see what

REVIEW – As a semi-competitive gamer, I’m always on the lookout for a good gaming mouse. Normally I’m not that excited about wireless gaming mice, because there’s always the risk that my battery dies in the middle of a game, leaving me stranded for 30 seconds or so while I fumble for a new pair

REVIEW – Thinkware has definitely upped it game recently. For years I’ve been saying they needed to go beyond HD video capture…and thankfully they’ve done just that. Earlier this year, Thinkware released the Q800 Pro that keeps the 800 series form factor but bumps the resolution from 1080p to 2K. That said, their most recent release

REVIEW – Hailing directly from Stockholm, Urbanears offers strong, clean aesthetics for their line of headphones, and the Plattan 2 Bluetooth is no exception. But do they sound as great as they look? What is it? The Plattan 2 Bluetooth headphones from Urbanears are a set of wireless on-ear headphones that features long-lasting battery life, collapsible
