REVIEW – There’s a huge range of electric skateboards on the market with more coming every year. There’s short boards, long boards, fast boards, slow boards, and price points from a few hundred dollars (or even lower) to multiple thousands of dollars. Maxfind has 7 different models for different types of riders and styles, and […]

REVIEW – Is it possible to have too many building block sets? I doubt it. I’m looking for another fantastic set to join my lakeside lodge and my massive lighthouse. I’m hoping that the new T-Rex from JMBricklayer will find a home on my bookshelf. What is it? The JMBricklayer T-Rex Dinosaur is a LEGO-compatible

REVIEW – The first toiletry travel bag I ever had was from the early 1980s. It was a vinyl zip up bag that came with my Remington shaver. It eventually cracked and dissolved from years of use and exposure to DEET bug repellent. I’m not quite as adventurous now but the WaterField Travel Toiletry Bag

REVIEW – The ORFELD EV696 Pro Vacuum Cleaner lies down on the job! Apart from this vacuum being cordless and rechargeable, that may be its best feature. We have some powerful corded vacuums in our home, that cannot go under beds. We’ve always had to move large beds to vacuum underneath them. No more. The

REVIEW – Laptops share many similarities with automobiles. Every year new models of each are introduced with new features and both laptop and car costs reflect the engine size, refinements, and power reserves. I have an ACEMAGIC AX15 laptop to review which is like an economy car. Read on to see what I think! What

REVIEW – We tend to get a slew of electric bikes to review here at The Gadgeteer. There are so many manufacturers and models these days. Some look like traditional bikes while others look like they belong in a utopian sci-fi movie. The Euybike S4 long-range moped-style electric bike comes along, does something a little

REVIEW – Last summer, my mother’s pool filter sprung a leak, spewing thousands of gallons of water out onto her lawn in minutes. Had she not been there, the loss could have resulted in losing its prime and damage to the motor. A camera like SwitchBot Outdoor Spotlight cam and remote switch could save the

REVIEW – Ever since our energy grid failed us back in 2021 during that big snow event, I have been paranoid about having some backup power available. We have been getting notifications and warnings this summer to conserve energy and protect our electric grid. We have had over 32 days of 100 degrees or higher.

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – Do me a favor and walk around your house and garage to count the number of flashlights you have. Now count how many of them need batteries or no longer work. I did this exercise and I counted 23. 23 flashlights of different shapes and sizes that required 4A, 3A, 2A, 9-volt,

REVIEW – As an elder millennial, I’m well into the phase of life where everything constantly hurts, and I’ve begun pulling back and leg muscles on an annual/semi-annual basis instead of every few years. When the offer to review the Healing Mosey MoseyLumbar™ Multi-function Lumbar Lift and Lower Back Massage Device came in, I had
REVIEW – As far back as I can remember, I have always had a fear of house fires. I think it may have to do with the destruction that I witnessed as a kid that was caused by a house fire. Since then, I have been very diligent in making sure that there are smoke

REVIEW – Red light therapy is all the rage these days. It is claimed to help relieve joint pain, relieve muscle pain, reduce inflammation, and reduce fat. Lucky for you, I have all those things so today, we’re looking at the NIVIOP red light therapy belt. Let’s see if a little light can make some

REVIEW – When I’m working out in the gym or running outside I prefer open ear headphones that allow me to maintain awareness of what’s happening around me. I had previously reviewed some bone conduction headphones that I really like and still use but I wanted to see if the Tozo Open Buds could provide

REVIEW – When you’re looking for a power station, there are quite a few features and specifications to pay attention to. Do you want the power station to last you years and years (probably, with such a large investment), or do you value fast wall recharging of the station over longevity? How many devices do

REVIEW – I know that I’m not the only person who struggles to eat the recommended daily amounts of fruits and vegetables. The current # of recommended servings per day is 5 servings! Heck, I’m lucky to eat that many servings in a whole week! When I was offered the opportunity to try SaladPower veggie

REVIEW – One never knows when they will be called to duty… If you are the person that your family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors call when something breaks and they know you are “electrically inclined,” PC Doodle’s updated Volty Switch multimeter belongs in your pocket! What is it? The Volty Switch is a tiny multimeter

REVIEW – When you review as many gadgets as I do, you need a lot of outlets to charge things. I don’t really like crawling around under my desk so I was interested in trying out the Baseus PowerCombo 6 in 1 Power Strip when it was offered for review. It’s “prettier” than a traditional

REVIEW – There are iPad stands all over my house. Some have attendant keyboards and/or displays. I love each and every single one and use them all almost daily. When the iVolver laptop stand was offered to the editors of The Gadgeteer for review, I was really excited, because even though it is billed as

REVIEW – It was almost with perfect timing that Fluentalk made available their newest translation device, the Fluentalk T1 Mini. This timing would allow for its use on a previously planned trip to Japan. Exactly how useful is a device like this and do you need a separate device to perform routine translation tasks while

REVIEW – Like many other Gadgeteers out there, when we get a new phone, that means that it’s also time to get a new case for it. For me, my new phone is a Google Pixel Fold. Yes, after 3 years away from the platform I’ve switched from the iPhone back to Android. I really
