AUSOM Leopard electric scooter review – even better than a mental health walk

ausom leopard 02

REVIEW – Having purchased or reviewed quite a few electric scooters now, I’m getting a pretty good idea of what I want in a good scooter. I definitely want enough power and speed to not feel slow and take forever to get to my destination. My most frequent routes cover hills and are usually 10-20

FJD Pony 500 Ultra-Portable DC Power Station review – Lots of watts in a small package!

FJD 19

REVIEW – I have been on a portable backup battery kick for the past six months or so.  I started off by reviewing the Vanpowers Super Power Pro 2000.  It is a great power station but not easily carried around.  Next, I reviewed the Mokin Energy Smart PD Pioneer 300W unit.  That power station was

DEERC Brushless RC Car review – smaller than expected but lots of fun

deerc rc car 02

REVIEW – When I was a kid, one of my most memorable possessions was a remote control car. Because this was the technology of the 80’s, it only drove (slowly) for about 10 minutes before requiring a 3-4 hour charging session, but nevertheless I still loved it. Fast forward more years than I’d like to

GoSun Chill + SolarTable 120 review – continuous cooling contingent solely on the sun

GoSun Chill cooler 07

REVIEW – If you’ve taken vacations, camping trips, or had lake/beach adventures with a cooler full of ice, then you know the hassle that GoSun is trying to solve with the GoSun Chill + SolarTable 120. Traditional ice-filled coolers inevitably have a lifespan measured in hours (or days for very nice ones that you’re not

EPOS Impact 1000 series headset review – Designed for the Open Office

EPOS IMPACT 1000 series 12

REVIEW – My interest in computer headsets has risen quite a bit since the era of desktop videoconferencing has become mainstream. Wearing a headset can be tiresome, and sound quality varies all over the place. The EPOS IMPACT 1000 series headset boasts a design to reduce wearer fatigue. What is it? The EPOS IMPACT 1000

Propper BDU 2.0 Work Pants review – More than basic

PropperBDU220 2014

REVIEW – Cargo pants have been derided as inappropriate for most settings, but they have a certain utility that appeals to those of us in the geekier, carry-a-lot-of-stuff professions. Enter tactical pants. A riff on the military Basic Daily Uniform (BDU) with a little more flexibility in fabric, patterns, and pocket layouts. I’ve used them

Comfier Wireless Hand Massager review – for a happier hand

comfier hand massager 1

REVIEW – This spring my wife broke her hand, and surgery required twelve screws to hold the bones in place.  The surgery combined with being a cast caused the muscles in her hand to become very tight.  This has made every part of physical therapy (PT) harder, so she has to start every PT session
