REVIEW – My son and review partner, Mason, has always wanted night vision goggles. He likes to camp, hike, fish and just about anything that gets him into the great outdoors. When we had an opportunity to review the WARMTUYO night vision goggles, he couldn’t wait! (Note: The image above is the default screen, unfortunately, […]

REVIEW – I am fortunate to have an entire room in my house dedicated to my gym. Finding things to put on the wall in that room has been challenging. I have one full wall taken up with mountains built out of trim wood, so when I ride my stationary bicycle, I can say I

REVIEW – As Gadgeteers, we need power to use many of the products we review. Portable power banks are ubiquitous and considered a staple of many EDC users. The KUXUI S2 Qi2 MagSafe Solid-State Power Bank is different in its battery technology. What are the advantages and differences of using a portable power bank built

REVIEW – I have a hole in my home office, an empty area between my book cases and underneath my gaming shelves. I want to fill it with a small couch where my wife can sit and talk with me while we are planning things together. I am hoping that the Chenille, a sofa bed

REVIEW – I was a kid right when the infamous super-soaker came on the scene in the early 90s (if my memory serves me right). I wanted one so bad, and my mind was all but blown when I was lucky enough to get one for a 4th of July party one year. If only

REVIEW – Ever since I reviewed the Wizmaker L1 a few years ago, I have been wanting to get a more advanced laser engraver. I have been getting into woodworking the past couple of years, and I want an engraver to enhance several of my projects. WeCreat recently announced their new 45-watt Vision Pro laser

REVIEW – I recently reviewed Keychron’s K4 HE mechanical keyboard, and loved it so much I immediately bought a second one when my partner stole the review unit for her own use. Since I don’t do a lot of 10-key work these days, I jumped at the opportunity to review the new K8 HE keyboard,

REVIEW – As I continue to replace all of my network equipment, the next step is to add another Access Point to replace the one I lost when I replaced my Netgear Router with the EnGenius ESG620 VPN Router. Having one that can be installed outdoors would be perfect, since the one I removed was

REVIEW – If you’re a regular visitor/reader of The Gadgeteer, you’ll know that I’m (stuck) in the Apple ecosystem. I have an iPhone, Apple Watch, AirPods, MacBook, and an iPad Pro. This doesn’t mean I’m anti-Android, though, because I also use Android devices, such as the OnePlus 13 smartphone, which I often use as a backup

REVIEW – I haven’t strapped on a pair of skates in decades, but I have fond memories of skating rinks and street hockey as an 80s/90s kid. I loved being able to get around my neighborhood in style, so there was definitely a bit of nostalgia contributing to my willingness to try out the Flying
Flying Eagle F5S+ Inline Skates review – solid build and lots of 90s flashbacks Read More
REVIEW – I’ve reviewed and ridden a few E-bikes and I love seeing the different styles and functionality that different companies incorporate into their designs. Recently, the opportunity to review the CYCROWN Dremax E-bike came up and I jumped at the chance. The way that the battery is incorporated into the frame as well as

REVIEW – My neighbor is an electrician, and like a lot of folks in the professional trades, he travels to the job sites where he works. He brings his own tools, which are inevitably piled into the back of a large pickup, and then hauls them around from room-to-room as he works. For craftsmen like

REVIEW – Not three months ago, I reviewed the Ultimea Aura A60 7.1 soundbar. I was pleasantly surprised at the sound I was able to get from that small package with Dolby Atmos to boot. Today I’m back with the Ultimea Poseidon D80 Boom 7.1 soundbar, and I’m here to tell you it’s a worthy

REVIEW – I’ve flown drones since the earliest days of cheap(ish) consumer drones, including the DJI Spark in 2017. Since then, I’ve used quite a few DJI drones, ranging from Mini’s and Air’s up to various Mavics (which are bigger and heavier than the sub-250g compact drone type). I’ve also used other brands like the

REVIEW – A pressure washer is great for cleaning your outdoor stuff, but sometimes those bigger blasters can be overkill. This is where the Lemolify Cordless Pressure Washer enters the chat. This little fellow is lightweight, portable, stowable and claims to be good enough for general light-duty functions. How does it do in our tests?
Lemolify Cordless Pressure Washer review – Great for light duty chores! Read More
REVIEW – I owned a color inkjet printer about 20 years ago or more. I got so paranoid about “wasting color” that I just printed in black and white- until all the cartridges dried out. I didn’t care for the often smear-prone prints, or the hit and miss color performance. I stuck with black and

REVIEW – I’ve had some great opportunities here at the Gadgeteer to try out a variety of crafting tools like laser cutters/engravers and 3D printers, but one product type has eluded me so far: the CNC machine. That changes today, since I’ve had the pleasure of checking out the LUNYEE 3018 Pro Ultra CNC Machine

REVIEW – As the number and types of smart tablets proliferate, the choices just get better. Apple’s iPad may not have been the first tablet, but it proved how useful and popular tablets could become. And boy, did they become popular with many to choose from in all price and feature categories. There are now

REVIEW – It’s yard maintenance time, folks! The weeds need trimming, the grass needs cutting, and the shrubs need trimming! I’m testing the Lemolify 4-in-1 Weed Trimmer that promises to deliver on all of those chores with multiple blade attachments, cordless operation, and a few extra accessories to accommodate different chores. How did it hold
