The Apple Pencil is perhaps a perfect stylus for drawing and writing on the iPad Pro, but some people (like me) may find its slim, slippery shape uncomfortable to hold for any length of time. I like writing with markers and with pens with thick barrels, so I find that holding the Apple Pencil can

When I was in high school, my dad asked me to detail his Bronco. It took me all day, but his truck looked better than the day he bought it. I remember having to really work at it to loosen up the grime, grease and brake dust. I still love the sense of satisfaction from

There are TONS of different bottles, flasks, tanks, and other container-type products for holding all manner of beverages. And that’s totally fine, because there is no “perfect” beverage holder. But BottleKeeper seems to be a bit unique. Slide your glass beverage bottle inside the neoprene-lined BottleKeeper and it will keep both your bottle and your

If you travel a lot and like to get a few extra z’s of shuteye while you’re on a plane, train, or automobile, you know how awkward and uncomfortable it can be. I usually end up getting a stiff neck from trying and failing to sit straight up in my chair. The ChinzUP is a

Introduced in 2006, the MagSafe connector from Apple was a magnetic port on MacBooks that allowed the power cable to easily disconnect from the laptop in the event of someone tripping over it or accidentally tugging it, to prevent damage from pulling the laptop off a table.

R2-D2 is arguably the most recognizable and beloved droid in the world (well, probably the galaxy). And the kindred spirits at ThinkGeek know this.

Storing your whiskey in an oak barrel, just like the distillers do, won’t do anything but add desirable flavors. Whiskey barrels are usually far too big to add

I’ve never thought I needed a dash camera. I have a 20-minute commute each way, which is mostly limited access or multi-lane highways, and folks generally drive OK. But the team at Uten needed a reviewer, so I volunteered to test their Model UCA001. Note: Photos may be tapped or clicked for a larger image.
