SAKOBS (GC1080) Pro Metal Detector review – Let’s go treasure hunting!

sakobs gc1080 15

REVIEW – Many years ago, my better half and I belonged to a treasure hunting club here in Southern Indiana. We each had a metal detector and liked to go to local parks to look for coins and other treasures. We even participated in some club events where dozens of people would hunt for buried […]

ULlife Me-300S headphones review – not just another pair of bone-conducting headphones

ULL Me 300S 1

REVIEW – There are many bone-conducting earbuds out there, most notably the Shockz series. Nearly all of them have the disadvantage that they need a special cable or charger and are more bulky than in-ear earbuds. In an effort to create a better design, the ULlife Me-300S bone-conducting headphones were introduced through a successful Kickstarter

Da Vinci Eye review – record your art the easy way

Da Vinci Eye 4

REVIEW – Recently I have been adding videos of some parts of my sample reviews to most of my reviews. When recording videos showing the features of smaller devices, I am finding that having an overhead stand with my phone mounted would be extremely helpful. I use my iPhone a lot for recording. This Da

Mythinglogic Home Gym Storage Rack review

mythinglogic storage rack 14

REVIEW – The main part of my basement doubles as a family room and a home gym. Over the years I’ve accumulated a lot of fitness equipment. There’s a treadmill, a TotalGym sliding bench trainer, and all kinds of dumbells, resistance bands, and kettlebells. In other words, it’s a mess. Imagine my excitement when Mythinglogic

SkyView 2 lamp review – a nice natural light with a confusing app

Skyview 2 01

REVIEW – I wake up pretty early and when my alarm goes off abruptly I can get pretty annoyed at it. I also live in the Pacific Northwest where the cold wet winters can get a little depressing so I’ve wanted to try a sunrise alarm and a light therapy or circadian rhythm lamp for

HiBoy Max Pro electric scooter review – I feel the need for speed!

hiboy max pro 38

REVIEW – I had a ton of fun reviewing the Yadea ElitePrime electric scooter.  Since then, I have been looking for a scooter to let me go faster than 19mph.  I know there are some scooters out there that can easily hit 40-plus miles an hour.  I also know that I would be stupid enough

Sobro Smart Side Table review – Who knew smart furniture was even a thing It is, and it’s cool!

sobro smart table 9

REVIEW – We are in an era of smart things.  Smartphones. Smartwatches.  But smart furniture? I didn’t even know this was a thing that I needed.  But it turns out that I did!  There is this chair in our family room that the kids love to sit in.  Because of that, it usually has a

Treblab HD-Mini Bluetooth speaker review

treblab hd mini 1

REVIEW – I have reviewed lots of Bluetooth speakers here at the Gadgeteer.  Some have been better than others.  But I have reviewed some Treblab products over the years and generally had good success with their products.  So the Treblab HD-Mini Bluetooth speaker at $39.97 seemed like a steal.  Let’s check it out! What is

Obsbot Tiny 2 4K Webcam and Smart Remote 2 review – Do AI, Gestures and Voice Control make a better experience?

OT24 01

REVIEW – Most external monitors (even the fancy ones) don’t have built-in webcams, and if they do it’s nothing to write home about. Most laptops do have one built in, but they’re almost always just “good-enough”. Even a great, built-in webcam cannot match what’s possible for a webcam with a cutting edge image sensor, gimbal,

Gaomon PD156 Pro Pen Display review – A good display with some compromises

Gaomon PD156 19

REVIEW – In my multi-year career as an art director and children’s book designer, I’ve used quite a few graphics tablets. And over the past few years, I’ve reviewed many other graphics tablets, both with and without screens. Some I now use every day in my work—I like them that much. And while I may

VTOMAN FlashSpeed 1500 Portable Power Station review – many watts, much wow

VTOMAN FlashSpeed 1500 Portable Power Station 15

REVIEW – If you’ve been following our site at all, you’ll know we get quite a few power stations in for review. This being (checks calendar…) a normal month, we have yet another station in. Power stations are great for creating a solar generator setup, for camping and other outdoor use, or for home backup
