REVIEW – I’ve been soldering electronics since the 3rd grade. It’s safe to say I’ve had my share of soldering irons over the years. A truly portable, cordless iron has been somewhat elusive.

REVIEW – I’ve always had a mild fascination with astronomy, but my interest grew significantly after last year’s total solar eclipse.

REVIEW – I have a lot of “smart” products in my house. In fact, I just checked and there are currently 38 things connected to the Wireless network in my house. And only a few of them are phones, tablets, or computers. Most of our smart devices are smart lights, smart plugs, and smart speakers.

REVIEW – About 8 years ago I got sucked into the mechanical keyboard hobby. And down a rabbit hole I went. Over the years I had accumulated a myriad of different boards from various different companies. But the Fizz K617 is the first board I have tried from Redragon. And it is also the first
REVIEW – I’ve been a smartwatch wearer since 2012, with the Pebble smartwatch.

Of course, this was 2004, which meant the projector I was evaluating ran Windows CE.
REVIEW – As a mom, I am constantly on the lookout for things that will encourage my children to get outside and take a break from the screens.
