Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
REVIEW – For some reason lately, I’ve been receiving (more than usual) audio speakers and headphones/earphones to review. I love it. Audio is my first love and playing with new gear is always fun. I’ve been having triple-fun—so to speak—with some Linsoul Audio Kiwi Ears in-ear monitors (IEMs). They wanted me to review the hybrid […]
REVIEW – I stopped buying canned air for dusting because at $5 to $10 per can, it just didn’t make sense. I have an air compressor in the garage, and a small rubber bulb for dusting small things like camera parts. I think the iDOO electric compressed air duster and vacuum might fit nicely in

REVIEW – I have been using folding large screen smartphones for a couple of years now. I started with the Samsung Galaxy Fold 3, but in folded mode, it was too cramped so I always had to open it to do anything. The Fold 4 was slightly better, but still was not a great experience

REVIEW – Aliens have arrived, and their UFOs are the gravest threat that our planet has ever seen! Mankind’s answer? Convert the giant octopi of our oceans into half mollusk, half machine monstrosities and turn them loose against the flying saucers! The crazy thing is that it seems to be working. Join me for this
REVIEW – A handbag, in case you aren’t aware, is kind of a personal thing. There are thousands of bags out there because everyone has different needs, and as our lives change, so does our bag. When I was told I could choose a bag from the Latico website, I was pretty excited because there

REVIEW – A few months ago I reviewed the original Vosteed Raccoon Button lock and shortly after the Raccoon Crossbar lock version which has become one of my favorite EDC knives since. The Raccoon lineup is now expanding once again by adding a cleaver style blade. Let’s see what it has to offer. What is
REVIEW – I’ve been working with 3D printers for several years, but reluctant to dive into resin printing because of the cost and complexity. Geeetech’s sub $100 Alkaid printer was just the incentive I needed to dive in. Is it any good? Join me for a peek! What is it? The Geeetech Alkaid is a

REVIEW – I have a nice air compressor in my garage to maintain my car and motorcycle tires. What it can’t do for me is easily blow up inflatable objects by my pool in the backyard or inflate my tires when I am traveling. Then there are plenty of folks who don’t have a garage
REVIEW – One aspect of my amateur video making that always seems to fall a bit short is the audio. The internal microphones on smartphones and cameras are never quite good enough to capture the full range of sound, resulting in videos that never reach professional quality. However, after testing the Godox Virso S M2
REVIEW – I started a new job last November and now work for an employee-owned company. As such, I now own some of the fiscal responsibility for making the company profitable. So, I’ve been trying to find ways here and there where I can save money while traveling for business. I usually carry a suitcase,

REVIEW – It is hard to believe that anyone who drives regularly has not noticed the chaos that has taken over the roads. There has been a serious rise in the volume of cars on the roads and with that comes a rise in the number of accidents. Being able to record your journey for

REVIEW – It has been a while since I reviewed high-end wireless headphones. I have reviewed headsets that are designed with the main purpose being geared towards using MS Teams or Zoom. It is nice to get back to headphones designed for the main purpose of listening to music. These Shure AONIC 50 GEN 2

REVIEW – Nerd alert! Ever since the original Raspberry Pi came out, I’ve gotten interested in ultra-small form factor PCs. The Raspberry Pi was fun for a while. It was only $35 and you could do a lot with it, but it definitely had its limitations. Not only would you have to build or buy

REVIEW – I keep a flashlight in a pouch on my backpack at all times because I always seem to need one. At 750 lumens using a Cree LED it was the brightest CR123 battery-powered flashlight at the time so when Nitecore asked me to review their new MH12 Pro that puts out 3300 lumens
