INIU have become a popular accessory brand in recent years and has a good range of affordable, well specced and well-reviewed power banks. Currently, on Amazon, they have six options covering two capacities, 10000mAh and 20000mAh. As I have a visit to San Francisco planned in the coming months, I decided that a 10000mAh option…
In the past few years, we have slowly started to see an improvement in the number of multi-gig switches. It started off with some affordable unmanaged 2.5GbE switches, but we are now starting to see quite a few 10GbE options. Most home users will have little need for such speeds. In the UK we are…

However, this year is quite different; Qualcomm has made…
WiZ is a smart lighting brand I haven’t paid much attention to in the past. They are owned by Signify, who also owns the Philips Hue brand, and WiZ appears to be positioned as a more affordable alternative to Philips Hue. A good example of this is a pair of warm white GU10 spotlights from…
I love high-watt multi-port chargers, it makes life so much easier having one charger that can charge multiple devices at the same time, including laptops.
