REVIEW – This may come as a shock to you, dear reader, but we LOVE Vosteed knives here at the Gadgeteer (actually if it does come as a surprise, you should visit our site more). We’ve got several reviews on their knives and I don’t think we’ve gotten a dud yet. The new Vosteed Corsair […]

REVIEW – Home lighting continues to encourage companies to innovate and bring new products to market. LEDs are taking over the lighting market, due to their flexibility, long life, and low energy requirements. I have quite a few LEDs in my home and have been adding more to the new home I am updating prior
REVIEW – I’ve always been fascinated with air compressors but never owned one I recently purchased one that was integrated with a car battery jump starter. While that’s a convenient tool to have on trips I wanted something to be able to blow up air mattresses, balls, and other inflatable items in addition to tires.

NEWS – Masonite has designed what has been called the world’s first smart door. It starts with a high-end door and adds a video doorbell, a smart lock, motion-activated LEDs, and a door sensor. Plus, it’s hard-wired, so you never have to worry about batteries. Sounds fabulous, doesn’t it? It does! It’s the M-Pwr line
The smart door has arrived, but you’ll want to pass on this one Read More
REVIEW – I’ve had my eye on Glowforge since their record-setting debut on Kickstarter in September 2015. Glowforge’s compact laser cutting and engraving machine brought lasers into the home crafter and small business arena. After almost 8 years of waiting, I was finally able to get my hands on one. What is it? The Glowforge

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

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
ULlife Me-300S headphones review – not just another pair of bone-conducting headphones Read More
REVIEW – I’d never heard of a pool ionizer before receiving this review offer for the AIRTHEREAL S6 solar pool ionizer. When another reviewer commented on how much an ionizer was helping his pool, I decided to give it a try. With the hope of using fewer chemicals, having a cleaner pool, and not having

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

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

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

REVIEW – For those Gadgeteer readers who have been following my journey to outfit my gym, you would have read my recent exercise equipment review featuring the Freebeat Boom Exercise bike. Now I get a chance to add variety and versatility to my workout with this Merach E09 Auto Electromagnetic Elliptical Machine. What is it?

REVIEW – A couple of years ago we got e-bikes after hearing all our friends bragging about all the fun they were having with their e-bikes. And we learned real quick how much fun these things are! We got folding e-bikes from Lectric because we wanted to be able to take them places in the

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

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
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

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,
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

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

REVIEW – Recently I have been looking to make my daily workflows as portable and efficient as possible, and some of the effort has been focused on having a tablet in various locations of my home so that wherever I am I can just grab one and access the internet, etc. This Blackview Tab 8
