REVIEW – By now, it has to be very clear that I am in the middle of a mini PC craze and can’t get enough of them. So far, I have been very impressed by the designs and what they can include regarding ports and features, as well as raw power and expandability. So, as […]

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed two mountain bike-style e-bikes for The Gadgeteer and liked them both: the TurboAnt Thunder T1 & the Heybike Brawn. I wanted to try a cargo-style bike on for size because my main uses are commuting and carrying groceries. The Rattan Quercus appealed to me because it seemed designed especially for those types

REVIEW – A couple of years ago, I reviewed the Edifier NeoBuds Pro True Wireless earbuds. I Liked them—quite a bit. In fact, I still have and use them. Now, Edifier has released their successor—the NeoBuds Pro 2 True Wireless Noise Cancelation In-ear Headphones. Edifier has promoted the “earphones” from Earbuds to In-ear Headphones. Is
REVIEW – After testing and reviewing several products made by Kwumsy, I am quite familiar with their style and the innovation they work to deliver with each device type. One of their products that I previously tested was the Kwumsy K1 mechanical keyboard that featured a flat small touchscreen monitor built in right above the
REVIEW – 7 years ago, I reviewed the Flic wireless smart button, and now I am happy to have the chance to test drive the Flic Starter Kit that includes the latest version of the Flic buttons as well as the Flic Hub Mini and the Flic Twist. It’s time to click and twist our

REVIEW – Govee has released a dizzying array of smart lighting products over the last few years, and I’m always a sucker for trying out new models in my house (often to the annoyance of my partner, she’s much less enthusiastic about adding RGB lights everywhere). Govee sent over their Govee Cube Wall Sconces, so

REVIEW – After reviewing a few laser engravers, I’ve discovered some features that are important to me: an automatic air assist, autofocusing, and an easy way to position the laser over my material. When the iKier K1 Pro Max came up for review, I was eager to try it because it has all of the

REVIEW – Portable batteries are all the rage. You can get them in a variety of sizes, shapes, and capacities from a never-ending list of vendors. What does it take to stand out in this crowded field of chargers and charging accessories? ELECOM has a solution in their NESTOUT series of outdoor gear, specifically their
NESTOUT Outdoor Gear review – portable, bright, powerful Read More
REVIEW – If you find most of your workday consists of being on calls, a quality headset is just as important as a quality mouse and keyboard. While many headphones have mics for taking calls on the go, their quality isn’t always great. We’re checking out the Poly Voyager Surround 80 UC to see if

REVIEW – I was initially skeptical about the Outdoor Edge Razor VX2 Knife but in no time I became impressed with it. A knife with a replaceable blade? How safe is that? How secure can the blade be? Based on no facts at all, I was concerned the knife would be a hardware-store-grade, kitschy knife

REVIEW – If you’re into custom gaming PCs, I’m pretty sure the name Cyberpower PC is familiar. They’ve been around for years and make great machines with quality parts and quality builds. Well, now they’ve gotten into custom gaming keyboards, so you know I had to get my hands on one. They already have some
REVIEW – I’m always interested in new fitness gear, so when NSD offered to send me their Powerball E-Titan Pro and Ionic Dual devices to test, I didn’t have to think too long about it before saying yes. If you like fitness devices that are beyond the norm, then you’ll want to keep reading. Powerball

REVIEW: Everyone, their brother and second cousin is selling eBikes these days. In order to stand out, there has to be a feature that calls to the buyer, compelling a purchase. The Mokwheel Mesa Lite electric bike wants to position itself as an affordable commuter and utility ebike. Let’s see if it lives up to

REVIEW – How many times have you been out and about, whether for work or play, and your phone was about to die? I think we’ve all had that problem. I definitely do when I’m out on a job site, constantly talking on the phone, and keeping up with Teams chats, emails, and meetings. Now,

REVIEW – Android tablets come in all shapes, sizes, and levels of quality. As an iPad lover, I still try to make sure there’s not something else out there I want, so every year or so, I’ll volunteer to review one. This year’s sacrificial lamb is the AGM PAD P1 from AGM Mobile. I’ve used

REVIEW -I have a love/hate relationship with composting. I love having compost for my garden, but I keep getting off the composting train because it’s gross. In the flimsy little can the city gave us I’d get mold, bugs and sometimes smells…and none of those are things you want in your kitchen. I kept seeing

REVIEW – With winter approaching, ‘tis, the season of closed windows, allergies, and recirculated air. The Iris USA Woozoo APF-45 Air Purifier cleans the crud out of the air so it doesn’t end up in your lungs. What is it? The Iris USA Woozoo APF-45 is a true HEPA system that draws air through a
REVIEW – It seems like everywhere you look, you see someone on an e-bike. Many ride them on the flat ordinary streets for commuting in the city, getting around at universities, or just riding around the neighborhood. However, there are other kinds of e-bikes that can provide better handling and traction over tougher terrain like

REVIEW – This review needs to begin with an apology to Oladance. When I first saw their OWS Pro earphones, I thought they were bone conduction technology—something I’ve never liked. I could not have been more wrong. The OWS Pro earphones are something you need to hear to appreciate. Nothing else works or sounds like

REVIEW – If you had told me just 3 years ago that I would be spending hours a day sitting in front of my computer in video meetings with other people, I probably wouldn’t have believed you. But we are in a new world, eh? Video meetings are now a big part of how we
