I consider myself an amateur photographer. As such, I have a mid-level digital camera. I also have a rather heavy and bulky tripod that I lug around from time to time, but what I really need is a small portable tabletop tripod that I can throw in my camera bag. The PIXI Mini Tripod from

My better half loves to garden. She has at least 50 (I stopped counting at 40) flower pots on the deck and back porch that are planted with flowers and herbs. Most of the time we enjoy them from the inside looking out because we never seem to have a vase handy. The Modgy MYVAS

I always liked the Bumper case I had for my iPhone 4. I liked that it added a little color and some grip to my slick, white iPhone without obscuring the beauty of the phone. I always wished they had included a polycarbonate cover for the back to prevent scratches to the glass, though. Griffin

Most of the fitness trackers currently on the market have a burned calories display that has been calculated based on stats like weight, height and of course your activities. While this info is very helpful, it’s using a formula that has not been created especially for you. If you’re looking for more accuracy, you might

I’ve been experimenting with different car dash cams since I discovered that the GoPro cameras don’t feature an auto-record-upon-power-up function. The last dash cam I reviewed was the Pittasoft BlackVue DR5000GW-HD, and before that, the DashCam Dually in 2010 (see related links for reviews of these products). I thought the BlackVue DR5000GW-HD did a pretty

After spending some time with the super-affordable MA150 earphones from RHA, I realized that this is going to be a short review. Why? Because I’ve already reviewed them. Well, that’s not entirely true, but these mini marvels are practically identical to the more expensive RHA MA350 and MA450i earphones. The cheaper MA150s are the redneck
