REVIEW – The Z606 is Logitech’s latest entry into the surround sound speaker market. This low-cost system has five wired speakers and a bass unit containing an amplifier, speaker connections, and RCA inputs. AV connections are sparse and while the power won’t rattle your windows, it should prove to be more than enough for most listening […]

REVIEW – Firstly an apology to Fused Good. This review has taken me literally years. After receiving the products and starting my draft review I moved to Vietnam for a couple of years and because of their cash economy and the size (both of the notes and the wad of money you need to take

REVIEW – How many of us look behind desks and dressers and nightstands and see a warty jumble of wall plugs? Your watch, phone, tablet, and earphones all want their own outlet and wall connector.

REVIEW – Let me first state something about this review: I don’t play computer games—period. I’ve never liked them and I think they are a waste of time. Now that that’s out of the way, this review is about a new gaming headphone—so why on earth am I reviewing it? Simple—the Audeze Mobius is one

REVIEW – As I’m sure the Gadgeteer Kid, my wife, and many friends & family would attest to, I’m pretty old school. While I do love tech-toys and modern conveniences, I could easily see myself living in past decades. So when I came across the Qwerkywriter S, it definitely caught my attention. I’ve been wanting

REVIEW – Watering the lawn. A mundane task, dragging around hoses and sprinklers and remembering (or forgetting) to turn them off. Or, you can go with a sprinkler system, typically controlled by a simple timer where you select days to water, and how long to water each zone. But, what happens when the weather changes?

REVIEW – I’m a tree hugger. I recycle and feel sad when I see pictures of forests being clear cut. At the same time, I prefer writing a journal and my to-do lists in a notebook using a favorite pen vs. typing into an app on my smartphone. I realize that wood pulp from trees

REVIEW – I’ll admit it, I was skeptical about writing a review for these MP Magic-Premium socks. I mean, what can you really say about a pair of socks? It’s just a tube of cloth right? Well, I was wrong. What is it? The MP Magic-Premium socks are just as they sound, premium socks. If

REVIEW – We just moved to the Houston area, aka “Hotstown”. Summers here are supposed to be brutal between the heat and humidity. So far, however, we have had unseasonably mild weather, almost like our former home in Seattle. But, to misquote Game of Thrones, summer is coming and we will need something like the

REVIEW – Ever since Apple decided to wander into the wireless charging club, I haven’t looked back to corded chargers. This time, I’m looking at a wireless charger with a whopping 5 coils, big enough for two phones at once. What is it? The Choetech T535-S is a wireless charging pad with 5 coils, and

REVIEW – I’m a self-admitted paper towel addict. I use them for everything, it’s an expensive and wasteful habit. I kept track of my paper towel use for a week. In that week alone I used 64 paper towels, an average of about 9 a day. To try and cure myself of this malady I
