REVIEW – Casio manufactures a wide range of electronic goods, from calculators to musical instruments. But I would argue, Casio is best known for their wrist watches…particularly their G-SHOCK line. For decades the G-SHOCK has been one of the goto watches for rugged dependability. A watch engineered to survive a march thru hell and back […]

MINI REVIEW – Firstly let me clarify, this is not a “Spitz Mini” review, it’s a Spitz “mini review”. That being said, just like all the GL.iNet range of products this is small, not your normal size router. Why a mini review? Because unlike a normal router, there’s a heap of different factors that will

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed quite a few different dash cams in the past. When the Nonda Smart Dash Cam review came along I saw that it was quite a bit different in form factor and jumped at the opportunity to review something a little different – and different it was! What is it? The Nonda

REVIEW – If I were browsing the Personal Ads for the perfect flashlight, I’d look for the following qualities: small, rechargeable, bright, rugged and loves long walks on the beach. Well, maybe not that last part. Is NITECORE’s TIP2 Keychain Flashlight a perfect match? Read on! What is it? The TIP2 is a small, rechargeable

REVIEW – By now, almost everyone who uses an internet connected device knows something about the dangers that lurk online. For those of us that have children, there is or should be a greater sense of awareness and desire to monitor and control what content they are exposed to, at least when they are home
REVIEW – The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend that American adults engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week. This roughly translates into taking 10,000 steps a day. The Mayo Clinic, however, estimates that the average American only walks 3,000 to 4,000 steps a day, far short of what

REVIEW – I live in the frozen tundra of Upstate New York among all manner of wildlife and long winter nights. I personally have had many close encounters of the furry kind, some of which resulted in coughing up my insurance deductible. I was eager to give Lanmodo’s Night Vision Safe Driving Assistant a

REVIEW – Losing your wallet is guaranteed to wreck your day, especially if you’re absent-minded like me. Fortunately, the folks at Ekster have us covered! Not only is the Parliament Wallet a fine transporter of your cash & cards, but it has a tracking device that makes lost wallets a thing of the past. To

REVIEW – Can light therapy that our eyes can’t see help heal wounds, reduce inflammation, and provide other health benefits? The Joovv Go is a portable Infrared device that claims to do these things. Let’s take a look. What is it? The Joovv Go is a handheld device that is available in 2 versions. The

REVIEW – These days, everywhere you look you can easily find someone taking pictures with their smartphones. This convenience has become the norm since phone cameras have become pretty darn good for general photography, and since just about everyone has one. What I have found is that unlike my ergonomic DSLR, holding the phone just

REVIEW – Within just a few weeks, I’ve graduated from my old Intuos 3 drawing tablet to the new Intuos Pro tablet and now to this: the Wacom Cintiq 16 display tablet. Reviewing the Cintiq 16 has left me with two differing opinions. It’s a drawing tablet that will either excite you or leave you

REVIEW – I purchased the Pixel 2 XL back in October of 2017 and liked it quite a bit. But WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity issues had me trying alternatives over and over again only to go back to the Pixel because I couldn’t find a phone I liked better enough to spend the cash. I’m

REVIEW – Since EGO sent me their Power+ 530 CFM blower, I’ve become a fan of EGO and more importantly, an advocate for clean battery-powered lawn equipment. I’m no tree hugger, but I do appreciate the advantages of yard tools that use no gas, have no fumes and are even quieter! You don’t appreciate the

REVIEW – When the whole family wants to watch a movie or see the big game together, we gather around the large screen TV in the living room. When I want to catch a Dota match on Twitch or see the latest Dude Perfect video on YouTube, I use my iPad. Is there room in

REVIEW – I have too many of those USB-chargable “power banks”. I can’t seem to find one I like. I usually find the biggest one I can find and pack a bunch of cables in a bag, then never use it because I can’t be bothered to fiddle with cables when on a campout in

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – We now have robots that can vacuum and mop our floors and cat litter boxes that are self-cleaning. So it’s high time that we have a trashcan that can clean itself as well as open and close with a wave of your hand. The Townew trashcan has those features and is now

REVIEW – Lately I’ve been having fun reviewing drones and that fun isn’t over because I have another drone review for you today. This is my third one from Holy Stone. It’s the HS700 FPV Drone and it’s currently their most premium model. Let’s take it for a spin (and hopefully not a crash!). What

REVIEW – I am an Audiophile! And while I love to sit in my listening environment and enjoy my main stereo, I love to listen to music even if it is not exquisitely reproduced via class A equipment. One way to always have access to music is via portable Bluetooth speakers. In most cases, I

REVIEW – Creating art on your laptop using a mouse, or on your phone/tablet using a finger is doable, but a specially designed digitizer tablet and pen can take your drawings from doodles to Dali (he’s an artist, google him). What is it? The Huion HS610 is a graphics drawing tablet that you can use
