Anker PowerCore+ 26800 & Quick Charge 2.0 USB Wall Charger review

anker powercore26800 1

When you think of 26,800 mAh battery, do you think “Do I really need that much battery”? However, what if the power goes out for days? This is an unusual scenario, but it happens. You may also want to have a large portable battery when you’re camping or when you travel for business for a few

IK Multimedia iRig BlueTurn page turner review

irig blueturn 5

Turning pages and scrolling through documents on your computer or tablet isn’t easy when your hands are otherwise occupied. For example, a guitarist who reads sheet music can’t easily turn the page without stopping their playing. A way around this problem is to use a hands-free Bluetooth page turning device like the IK Multimedia iRig

SOJITEK Universal Detachable Magnetic Charging Cable and USB Type-C adapter review

sojitek cable 1

I’ve been enjoying my Nexus 6P for a few months now, but I still miss the convenience of wireless charging. During the day it’s no big deal to plug in a cable, but at night I just set the phone next to me on the night stand so that I can easy pick it up

IK Multimedia iRig acoustic guitar microphone review

IKMultimedia 5

I’ve been playing acoustic guitar for more than 40 years. Same guitar, but I’m hopefully a little better for the years of practice. A decade or so ago, I had my guitar retrofitted with an internal pickup, since I was playing regularly into a sound system. Recently, however, I’m more interested in getting that sound

Qicent Surge Supressor with USB surper charger review

Qicent 1

This is another product category that has moved from being a geeky thing to perfectly normal for people in all walks of life. In the last year, I have seen power cords and surge suppressors that have several USB plugs for charging phones or tablets in coffee shops, malls, bars, and waiting areas in healthcare

Fluance Fi70 Three-Way Wireless Speaker review

Fluance Fi70 01

Your eyes do not deceive you.  There’s a hole in this speaker.  The first time our own Bill Henderson mentioned the Fluance Fi70, I knew I just had to try it.  But would the unusual looks translate into a something that sounded decent?  I’ve got enough speakers.  Why would I want another?  I told myself I

Inateck MP1305 iPad Pro/MacBook Air sleeve review

Inateck MP1305 2

Finding the perfect laptop sleeve is a lesson in compromise. The optimal design most people seek is a balance between protection, fashion, storage and utility. Just exactly what qualities are most important is based on one’s own proclivity for each feature. The Inateck MP1305 sleeve delivers a fashion forward design with the ability to prop up the computer for video playback or
