jackery SolarGenator1000 1 1

REVIEW – We live pretty far out in the sticks which definitely comes with its pluses and minuses. One of the biggest hassles being when the power goes out. Now I grant you this occasionally happens to everyone but one tree can take us off the grid for days, if not weeks at a time.

KUTS 01

REVIEW – Wireless chargers are here to stay and we’ve reviewed countless here at the Gadgeteer. Usually they are stands, pucks, catchalls or some combination.

Orico 23

REVIEW – If your house is like mine, you have dozens of power-hungry gadgets in every pocket, on every shelf, and under the Christmas tree, Menorah, or Festivus Pole.

Satechi 100w USB-C PD Compact GaN Charger review

SCGC 01

REVIEW – Laptop chargers can be annoying. They’re usually larger than you’d like and if not they are either proprietary or have a single USB-C cable or port for your laptop.
