REVIEW – There are two things to consider when looking at the new Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 true wireless in-ear monitors. The first is that everyone who makes wireless earbuds is gunning for Apple by trying to come up with the next “AirPod killer.” The other, less obvious thing is calling these wireless earbuds “monitors” […]

REVIEW – We all have charging units in our cars. It’s part of the Gadgeteer Code. Some of us even have power inverters that provide AC power. With today’s larger devices, however, the trickle of power our cars provide needs to be stepped up a bit for the larger phones, tablets, laptops, action cameras, and

REVIEW – With all the dash cams on the market, how do you make one that stands out from the rest? You can be like Soliom and make a dashcam with two cameras. One that points out the front of the vehicle’s window and one that points inwards into the car. Why would you want

REVIEW – We love wallets here at The Gadgeteer, in all shapes and sizes. One of my favorite types is the zipper wallet, because it holds its contents very securely.

REVIEW – My daughter is heading off to college this fall, and like every other college student, she needs a laptop. We bought her a new MacBook Pro, and while these are nice machines, they don’t exactly have an over-abundance of ports. In fact, the 13-inch ones have exactly two Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports, one

REVIEW – Security cameras are everywhere. Given the advancements in camera resolution and solar technologies, the price of a solar-charged security camera that would have cost hundreds of dollars just a few short years ago is now in the realm of possibility for anyone who has property that needs securing. Reolink has several cameras, but

REVIEW – I have always been a fan of all things robotic, and it seems that my 5-year-old son has the same addiction. Over the past 2 years, I have probably purchased over a dozen robots for him. This time around, I got the chance to test and review the Makeblock Motionblock Robot Kit which

REVIEW – I travel for work fairly often, and typically outside the US 2 or 3 times per year, and for those trips, it’s essential to carry electrical gadgets that can be used with the electrical outlets in countries. I typically carry a fairly standard travel adapter for my laptop, but when I want to

REVIEW – In the last year, I’ve been fortunate enough to review two great outdoor pizza ovens from Ooni, the Ooni 3 and Koda. Recently, they introduced a new pizza peel, and they were kind enough to send me one. So let’s take a look at the new Ooni 12” perforated pizza peel. What is

REVIEW – Just when I thought you couldn’t add any more features to a portable power bank, I am proven wrong. The ZMI PowerPack 10K USB-C Power Bank is not only a solid portable solution to keep your devices charged on the go, it provides something that I had never thought you might need. What

REVIEW – Each of my two printers at home has a scanner, but neither is a duplex scanner. When the Xerox Duplex Combo Scanner was offered to the Gadgeteer for review, I was excited to try it out. What’s the verdict? Well, it’s relatively small and lightweight. It scanned my large two-sided documents quickly and

REVIEW – Fried okra? Yes, please! Chicken-fried steak? Of course! Fried chicken? You betcha! When it comes to home cooking, it seems that I’m a bit of Southern boy. But while I love fried foods, I don’t like cleaning up the mess that frying makes, and I really shouldn’t be consuming all that oil. What

REVIEW – BluShark is a relatively young company that specializes premium pass-through (i.e. NATO-style) watch straps, but also makes traditional two-piece straps. I’ve been wearing pass-through straps on my watches for many years (for a variety of reasons discussed later) and have tried straps from most of the well-known brands.
