That tells me that EDC and multi-tool news and reviews should be […]

REVIEW – Those that regularly read The Gadgeteer will note that we get a ton of robot vacuums to review. Some are good, some not so good, but all represent the rise of our eventual robot overlords. In my not-so-humble opinion, the Ecovacs DEEBOT series of robot vacuums are at the top of the heap

REVIEW – Apple misplaced a bunch of ports when they switched from MagSafe to USB-C on their MacBook line a few years ago. Even if you have one of the Intel machines with 4 ports, they’re all USB-C. It’s nice and clean, but means you need to plan for compatibility whenever you need to connect
