REVIEW – The WeGym Smart Resistance Band System claims to be a portable full-body workout in a tiny bag. I had the opportunity to take these bands for a month-long spin — or stretch, rather — and here are my thoughts. What is it? The WeGym System is a highly-portable set of resistance bands that […]

REVIEW – Have we finally reached the saturation point with portable Bluetooth speakers yet? It seems that new ones are popping up every week—and boy, are they now cheap! However, despite the number of Bluetooth speakers I’ve reviewed over the years, I’ve yet to grow tired of them. There’s just something about quickly grabbing a

REVIEW – I’ve been following a lazy Keto / low carb diet for the past year. I’m pre-diabetic and use Keto to keep my blood sugar levels stable and to hopefully remove the pre-diabetic label and get back into the non-diabetic group at some point in the near future. Just because I’m eating low carb

NEWS – I enjoy searching for unique EDC gear and I especially like finding multi-tools that pack a lot of functionality into a small form factor. The MyKee 2.0 definitely ticks the boxes for being unique and having a small form factor. The MyKee looks like a traditional key that you would find on your

REVIEW – One of the most recent projects in my home has been to build and equip a gym. I have had a treadmill for years and recently purchased a rowing machine. The only missing exercise equipment that my wife wanted was an exercise bike. I jumped at the opportunity to test and review this

NEWS – These specially designed shoelaces/bootlaces are an easy way to carry fire-starting materials with you without adding extra bulk to your backpack or pockets. Each tip of the bootlace (called an aglet) is made from ferrocerium. When you strike the lace tip against the included steel plate, it will generate a spark that will

REVIEW: The Orosound Tilde Pro Premium C+ Bluetooth headset is a serious audio listening and speaking device. This headset will not be found on the impulse-buy hangers at your office supply store. (The price was my first clue.) You can listen casually with the Tilde Pro, but if you want excellent sound reproduction from a

NEWS – Groove Life has been selling silicone rings as replacements for traditional metal rings for a while now. Why would you want to put a silicone ring on your finger instead of a silver, gold, etc ring? Silicone is much safer for certain environments and they just look super cool too. Well now, they

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a couple of robot vacuums in the past that include a wet/mop function, but neither of them did much in terms of mopping. As a result, my back still hurts after every manual mopping session. I was excited to review the Dreame H11 Max Wet and Dry vacuum and hoped that

REVIEW – These days I often create a short video to add to my reviews here at The Gadgeteer. A couple of recent examples include the setup of UREVO’s treadmill and Flexispot’s standing desk. As we’ve said many times on this blog, lighting is key to good photography, and that’s also true for good videography.

REVIEW – My son and I discovered Keychron about a year ago. We’re both Mac users and were looking to see what all the fuss was about with mechanical keyboards. We bought him the K1 model (104 key with brown Gateron switches) and were almost immediately obsessed. I picked up a K1 and then a

REVIEW – Confession time. I generally like stock speakers. I know, I know. The treble usually sounds like a tinfoil thunderstorm and the bass doesn’t go low enough, or the crackle when one side of whatever speaker-equipped entertainment device you’re working with inevitably dies. (RIP driver-side rear speaker in my ’93 Thunderbird.) But I never thought

REVIEW – My hardwood floors take a constant beating. Between the menagerie of pets and farm boots being worn inside my floors are always covered in dirt and grime. While I have a robot vacuum to take care of the larger stuff, I have always struggled keeping up with the spills and dog drool that

REVIEW – Have I been called a prepper? Guilty. I try to be super prepped for an earthquake, which is far and away the most likely natural disaster to hit Southern California. When the Oupes power station came up for review, it was one piece of equipment that was missing from my kit, and I

NEWS – Way back in May of 2012, I reviewed the Wedgestand eReader stand. Over the near-decade since, I’ve mentioned it as a favorite device accessory at least twice, and it is out on my dining room table as I type this. It’s a great, simple design, and I thought it could not be improved

REVIEW – This past June we moved into a new house with a little over 1800 square feet of tile. I hate housework. I would rather be outside working in the yard any day before dusting or cleaning the inside of the house. With that much tile, vacuuming and mopping is a real chore. I

REVIEW – I typically don’t need to charge my phone while I’m at my desk. However, occasionally I have found the need/desire to top off my phone battery, but I wouldn’t say I like using a cable. When the Nomad Base Station Mini review offer came along, I thought it would be a great time
