I have worked in web development for years, and while I am aware of monitor calibration, and the need for it in the graphic design industry, I have never actually tried it out until recently, thanks to Datacolor and their Spyder5 device. The Spyder5 is a hardware device that plugs in via USB that can…
FRITZ!Box has been a firm favourite hardware provider with me for router products in recent years. The FRITZ!Box 7490 is still my main router in the office. In my experience, they have always offered high-end features, including VDSL modems, as well as a decent user interface and usability. At the time of reviewing the 7490,…
The Toshiba Canvio Connect II is an affordable USB 3.0 2.5-inch external hard drive that can be bought from Amazon for around £100 and comes with 10 GB Cloud Storage via Pogoplug. For me with things like this price is generally the main factor in my purchase and at around £110-120 it sits on the…
Gearbest recently sent me the MotoSpeed K87S mechanical keyboard to review. This is a tenkeyless RGB keyboard with edge to edge keys making for a very petite keyboard. For lack of a better word, the design is quite girly, which is not a bad thing, it is quite obvious what you are getting from the…
Following our review of the excellent Ezviz Husky, I decided to try and find some alternatives at a similar price point. Hikvision cameras were my immediate choice as they are the company that makes Ezviz and what’s more their cameras are fully compatible with the Ezviz software and cloud platform. As I do not currently…
I have recently been dabbling with more business class networking hardware for some clients as part of my web development business. Cisco’s range of Meraki products is one of the main ranges I have been trying out as it offers full cloud management of all the hardware. The beauty of this is it allows me…
Smart Homes have been in the news a lot recently; we have Smart thermostats, smoke alarms, and lighting. Smart home technology has crept its way into the kitchen too, I even reviewed the excellent Samsung WW9000 washing back in 2014 and I saw a prototype of the Haier smart fridge back in 2013. However, since…
I am not a juicing convert but since losing a lot of weight, and still having a sweet tooth, I have made protein ice-cream on a very regular basis. This generally requires me blending mostly frozen milk, mixed with protein and xanthan gum. This combination of ingredients has wreaked havoc on all the cheap blenders…
Continuing our reviews of IP CCTV cameras, we have recently been sent the Ezviz EZ-C3S-WIFI which is an outdoor WiFI CCTV camera. This is more of a traditional style setup rather than some of the completely wireless options that have been reviewed recently. Ezviz is a relatively unknown brand to us but the cameras are…
Aukey is not known for their mechanical or gaming keyboards, but they are a popular seller on Amazon for computer and mobile related accessories. Their first mechanical keyboard is priced at just £55.55 has RGB backlighting and features what they describe as Blue mechanical switches. Interestingly there is now mention of Cherry the main brand…
A treat dispensing pet cam may seem like a very niche product but it isn’t even the first I have reviewed, back in April last year I reviewed the Petzi treat cam. Today I am reviewing the Furbo Dog Camera, and looking at Amazon these 2 are the only products currently available offering this niche…
Just before Christmas, I was contacted by Volt to review one of their e-bikes, the Volt Connect and I have been using it intermittently for the past couple of weeks. I am a reasonably keen cyclist that rides a road bike, and as an ex-obese person, one of the main reasons why I cycle is…
