Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
REVIEW – I recently had the chance to try out Gerber Custom, a new tool on the Gerber Gear website that lets you design a customized knife or multi-tool that Gerber will then build and send to you. The design process was simple and fun, and I was impressed with the number of customization options […]
REVIEW – Pressure cookers are not new technology, but it has been interesting to watch how the cooking scene has changed since the Insta-Pot came out. An all-in-one cooking solution that does more than just pressure cooking, the concept has become widely popular. The Midea WideMax 12-in-1 pressure cooker is built on that concept and

REVIEW – A little over a year ago I reviewed the Alpha Pro, an Over-The-Counter hearing aid from Elehear. At the time, OTC hearing aids were still pretty new and the Alpha Pro at $999 was up to 5x less expensive than hearing aids bought through the traditional audiologist route. A lot has changed in
REVIEW – I like the Groove Life Groove Belt that I reviewed back in 2020 so much that it became my daily belt. But I always wished there was a leather version available. Boom! Groove Belt Max Leather! Let’s check it out! What is it? The Groove Belt Max Leather is an adjustable, stretchable authentic

REVIEW – Funwhole has been on a tear lately, recently releasing a wide variety of building block sets with lights. In my personal opinion, they are the #1 competitor to LEGO, and they continue to release great sets in a variety of themes. One of the newest sets in their Steampunk series is the City

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a handful of portable projectors now, but so far none of them have passed the “watching a Lord of the Rings Extended Edition on battery test”, of which movies the Return of the King runs a whopping four hours and one minute! I know most people aren’t watching 4 hours of
REVIEW – Miniature vehicles, including trains, have always been a favorite of mine since childhood. Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars especially. As I aged, my interest in all things remote control (RC) has developed. I recently reviewed an RC boat and loved it. Now I’m reviewing an RC car from the same company. The DEERC
REVIEW – Your phone is likely the last thing you use before going to bed and one of the first things you check after waking up. A good bedside charger is a must have. If you’re also running an Apple Watch and AirPods; well you’re going to want a 3-in-1 charger to keep things simple.

REVIEW – Fun holiday gathering post dinner/pre dessert discussion topic: Does every appliance now need to be “smart”? I have a “smart” carpet cleaner and I have exactly zero idea why it needed to be smart; now I have an app that tells me when it’s on or when the water is low, two very

REVIEW – A few years ago when I first purchased my home, there was a relatively large lawn in the back and a small lawn in the front. I hate mowing and I soon convinced my wife to create a 100% hardscape in the backyard, eliminating the lawn. We still have the lawn in front,

REVIEW – Do you like knives? I think it’s safe to say you do. I DO TOO! It’s fun to find new brands to see what other companies are doing. What’s even better is finding a new brand that makes a good knife at a price that won’t break the bank. So when the offering

REVIEW – xTool recently announced a new version of their air purifier and inline fan, the xTool SafetyPro AP2 Air Purifier with SuperCyclone System and the xTool SafetyPro IF2 Hyper Flow Inline Duct Fan. Having previously used several different air purifiers for laser engravers, I was skeptical about the effectiveness of this product despite the

REVIEW – Whether tracing wiring issues through cable races to just wanting to get your coffee ready to brew on a cold morning at a campsite, a headset from the modern, LCD era is something you need to embrace. They are a far cry from incandescent ones of yore and are quite a bit more

REVIEW – When you’re a gadget fanatic like I am, outlets and USB charging ports are very important. When I remodeled my office (aka Gadgeteer HQ), I made sure I had a LOT of outlets. There are 16 outlets in my office, but they are all under my desk. To solve this first world problem,

REVIEW – As I started writing this review, I did the math and realized I’ve been playing virtual reality games for nearly a decade now (starting with the Oculus Rift developer kit 2 in 2014). Even with that early hardware there have been amazing moments that are etched in my memory, like when my cockpit

REVIEW – I love Lofree keyboards. I’ve reviewed no less than four of them. My favorite is the Lofree Flow. I understand that for some $160 might be a hard pill to swallow for a keyboard especially if you’ve never used a low-profile keyboard. Or, let’s say, you don’t care for the looks of the
REVIEW – In our modern world, it seems we cannot get by without a battery charger for very long. Whether it’s for your smartphone, camera, GPS unit, or a CPAP unit to treat your sleep apnea, most of us need power in order to live our lives, even if we’re “roughing it” on a camping

REVIEW – Every time I take a case off my phone I’m reminded of what a beautiful piece of engineering the Apple iPhone is. I’d really like to be able to go without a case but there’s just so much glass. Well, Nomad seems to agree and has a unique solution in their Magnetic Leather

REVIEW – A very interesting gadget combo came out recently that really intrigued me. You may have seen it in a news post about a month ago where Bluetti announced a backpack/battery combo called the Handsfree 2 All-in-One Backpack power station. The Gadgeteer has reviewed quite a few different Bluetti battery products over the past
