REVIEW – It has been a hot summer across the board for everyone this year and having a cold drink readily at hand is almost a necessity. The icemaker on my refrigerator stopped working and we’ve been left without an easy source of ice while we figure out a fix. Enter the GoveeLife Countertop Ice […]

REVIEW – If you’ve ever used a MagSafe stand or accessory with an iPhone, then you know how convenient and secure that system is. Apple uses similar magnets in their iPad Pro lineup for their own proprietary Apple Keyboard, and this means that third party accessory makers can create things to utilize this system as

REVIEW – If you’re looking for the latest and greatest tactical knife that you can fidget with all day long, turn away now. This one is for Case fans, fans of slip joints, and fans of knife designs like your Granddaddy used to carry. I love all kinds of knives but Case knives always provide
REVIEW – You’ve probably used a french press to make coffee at some point by now. You’ve probably also used a thermos to keep your precious coffee hot. What would you say if I told you they could be the same thing and make great cups (plural) of coffee? Enter the BruTrek 48 from Planetary

REVIEW – When you look at the current crop of wireless speakers, it becomes obvious that they tend to resemble each other—lots of speaker grills showing with controls lined up along the top. The new Edifier D32 Wireless Speaker eschews that look and travels back in time to when speakers were also radios and looked

REVIEW – Flashlights are a basic requirement in most readiness kits. There are lots of freebies out there, but most of them in my opinion aren’t worth keeping around. The SPERAS TH4 4-in-1 Hunting Flashlight came up for review and I was intrigued by the features. A good flashlight is worth the effort and when

REVIEW – When it comes to Android devices, my favorite brand right now is OnePlus. I have enjoyed using the OnePlus Open folding smartphone and the OnePlus 12, but one OnePlus device that I’ve yet to try is its earbuds. That changed when I was given the opportunity to review the OnePlus Buds Pro 3

REVIEW— I’ve worked with and on electronic devices for at least 30 years, and one thing I’ve learned is that they’re all dust magnets. In the past, I’ve relied on canned air or an air compressor to eliminate the nuisance. Years ago, I bought a rechargeable air duster but was quickly disappointed with its performance.

REVIEW – I previously reviewed the Arcade Belts Carto A2 Stretch belt and I’ve worn it daily since so when Arcade asked if I would check out their new National Geographic inspired belt I couldn’t say no. Let’s see how the Arcade National Geographic 1888 performs. What is it? Arcade Belts and National Geographic have
REVIEW – An interesting addition to electric scooters popped up recently with some new functionality that I had not seen before. A brand called LexGo out of Italy has a series of electric scooters with a smart helmet that pairs to the scooter, something I had never seen before. It also has a collapsible basket

REVIEW – Meet my dog, Cooper. Cooper is a one-and-a-half-year-old French Bulldog. Since French Bulldogs often suffer from digestive, neck, and back problems, Cooper must have the correct type of food bowl. This means the bowl must be raised off the ground, and I prefer a slow feeder bowl to help with his digestion. The

REVIEW – While visiting my brother over the summer, I helped him hang some cabinets. He brought out a laser level and I was impressed by how well it worked. I have a few of the smaller 6 inch “manual” levels as well as a wooden 4 foot level passed down to me from a

REVIEW – Lately, I have been looking for ways to spend more time outdoors with my family, especially when opportunities arise to enjoy nature.

REVIEW – In an attempt to find the perfect little workstation for my personal projects, I’m always up to test the various offerings that come up for review here on the Gadgeteer.

REVIEW – Last June (2024), I reviewed the excellent Huion Kamvas Pro 27 graphics display. It’s big, has a beautiful 4K screen, and it’s expensive at $2,000. However, if that price is a budget buster, there are two good choices available from Huion—the Huion Kamvas Pro 24 (4K) or the new Kamvas Pro 19—this review.

REVIEW – Wireless CarPlay debuted in 2017 and wireless Android Auto came out in 2019 but not all cars support wireless protocol.
