PowerA MOGA XP-ULTRA Multi-Platform Wireless Controller review – jack of all trades, master of none

PowerA MOGA XP ultra 13

REVIEW – There’s no shortage of gaming controller options on the market, with some designed specifically for certain consoles while others try to target both Windows and Xbox or Playstation consoles. Rarely do I see one trying to do as much as the PowerA MOGA XP-ULTRA Multi-Platform Wireless Controller though, with support for wireless and

Tribit FlyBuds C1 True Wireless Earbuds review – Really good earbuds overshadowed by a glitchy app

Tribit FlyBuds C1 9

REVIEW – You gotta love a company like Tribit. Why? The reason is simple—Tribit makes products that perform exactly as advertised, are reasonably priced, and just plain work. I’ve reviewed 8 different Tribit audio products and my favorite is also the least expensive—the Tribit StormBox Micro2 speaker. This little wonder, as do most of Tribit’s

JMBricklayer T-Rex Dinosaur Building Block Set review – large and in charge

jmbricklayer trex 1

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

WaterField Travel Toiletry Bag review – Tip top tiny tote

waterfield TTB 09

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

ORFELD EV696 Pro Vacuum Cleaner review – It lies down on the job

ORFELD 12

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 – We tend to get a slew of electric bikes to review here at The Gadgeteer. There are so many manufacturers and models these days.

SwitchBot Outdoor Spotlight Cam and Solar panel review – Your home’s eyeball!

SwitchBot Outdoor camera and solar panel 94

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

MOKiN Energy Smart PD Pioneer AC300W power station and 120W foldable solar charger review

mokin 27

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.

urFlamp V63 1

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,

MoseyLumbar 4

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.

X-Sense Combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detector with Voice Location review

X Sense Combination Detector 13

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

VigorPool Captain 1200 Portable Power Station review – meet the Captain

VigorPool Captain 1200 11

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
