REVIEW – We’ve reviewed a lot of chargers here at The Gadgeteer. As a means to continue that tradition, I present to you Baseus’s new 100W GaN2 four-port charger. And, for good measure, they sent along their new single-port USB-C 100W GaN2 charger so I took a look at that one as well. What is […]

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed several power banks here for The Gadgeteer. Guess what? I’m reviewing another – the Einova (by Eggtronic) 63W, 20,000mAh power bank, to be specific. What is it? This is a portable power bank capable of outputting up to 63 Watts combined from its three output ports. What’s in the box? Power

REVIEW – A wireless charger might seem like a kind of an unnecessary gadget … I mean, a cable works and you already have one of those. That’s what I kept telling myself, anyway. Then I rolled my desk chair over my USB cable AGAIN. It did not survive. At that moment I decided that

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – Wireless chargers, USB charging hubs, and powerbanks are everywhere these days, coming in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and capacities. But few combine all three into one. Well the engineers at INTELLI have done just that with their new ScoutPro series of all-in-one powerbanks. They are introducing their new power solution via

REVIEW – After a few years of testing and reviewing wireless charging devices, I have lost track of how many I have tried. Most of the solutions I tested either offer a single wireless charging option in an awkward or unbalanced position, or they try to offer multiple options, but on a footprint that is

NEWS – Over the years, Apple has made product presentations a “thing”. Now, it seems that when a tech company comes out with a new and improved product, they need to make a presentation to the world. Jackery—a power backup battery maker—has now jumped on the presentation train. On March 17, Jackery introduced two much

CROWDFUNDING NEWS – Last month I posted a news article about an upcoming crowdfunding campaign for the BLUETTI EP500 and EP500 Pro power stations. That post generated a lot of traffic most likely due to the fact that it was posted just a few days before the severe winter storm that caused a huge power

REVIEW – We all have them: those surge protectors that either have a mile of extra cord to manage, or that are just short of reaching the outlet you want to plug into. Aracky’s SuperDanny Spin Tower solves both of these problems worth a neat, elegant solution. Let’s dive in! What is it? Vertical power

REVIEW – It seems like every few months we’re reminded of the fragility of our modern infrastructure with events like earthquakes, winter storms in Texas, pandemics, and other disasters.

REVIEW – I have a lot of devices to charge. Between phones, iPads, laptops, several bluetooth headphones and earbuds, portable battery packs, flashlights, etc., I estimate that I have about 3,264 devices to charge. I may have missed a decimal place somewhere but suffice it to say that I have a lot of things to

REVIEW– I’m a bit intimidated by anything that can kill me. The Omni Ultimate by Omnicharge is the highest capacity portable power supply I have used in my short yet productive life. But given the suggested retail price, the variety of ports, and especially its 120V grounded ‘wall plug’ style outlet, I anticipated this would

REVIEW – Name two things plaguing all of the small electronics we have all grown to depend on. I’ll start. 1) They all need to be charged. 2) There are way too many cables strung all over the place. Wireless chargers have helped, but they still take up valuable desk/table/nightstand space and are somewhat unsightly.

REVIEW – Each day I walk around with 3 smartphones, with each having a specific use/purpose. My Android phone is heavily used and I often find myself away from home and in need of a charge.

REVIEW – Chances are increasingly good that that your phone supports wireless charging, and probably your earbuds too. It’s not hard to find chargers out there, but options dwindle the more charging spots you need. That selection further reduces when you want it to be attractive as well.
