I have written about a few portable power stations now, but these have typically been in the 600Wh range and are geared more towards travelling and camping. Various brands have large capacity options which are geared towards whole home backup for emergency use but these brands cap out between 2160Wh and 3600Wh capacity. However, Bluetti…
Today, Philips Hue has announced several new products, including the new Perifo track lighting and a Hue Go portable table lamp that can be used outdoors. However, what caught my eye was the Philips Hue Tap dial switch which provides superior lighting control over the existing basic Hue switches. Philips Hue Tap dial switch The…
Digitization is the process of transforming information into computer-readable (digital) format. With digitization, you can convert a document, an object, sound, or image into a computer-readable format. Digitizing thick documents gives you a softcopy version of the documents, enabling you to edit and share them with anyone you like. You can digitize documents using; Your…
Back when I was a kid, the Internet didn’t exist as we know it, and the closest thing to fun STEM projects I experienced was learning to program BASIC on a BBC Micro. I think it is amazing that children today have access to such a wide range of fun learning resources. The Petoi Bittle…
I have covered Oclean quite a few times now; they are a relatively new brand to the market that provides an affordable alternative to high-priced brands like Oral-B and Sonicare while being competitive with the overall specification and features. Oclean has expanded its range of smart toothbrushes with the new Oclean X10, which has a…
I reviewed the 42mm Huawei Watch GT 3 back in November 2021, and in May this year, Huawei launched the Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro. Like previous iterations, the Pro model is essentially the same as the GT 3, but you now get premium quality materials in the form of a titanium body and sapphire…

It looks like the only current supplier of this hardware is Mechkeys, who also supplied this sample. The James Donkey RS4 is an 87-key tenkeyless mechanical keyboard using Gateron Pro 2.0 yellow switches that can operate in wired or wireless…
The Apcsilmic DOT 1 Mini PC is one of the only desktop PCs on the market to run the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c Compute Platform. This makes it the most energy-efficient Windows PC you can buy and quite likely the smallest too. I wouldn’t say I have had the best experience with Windows on Arm in…
I originally made this post in 2021, which highlighted a fault with the Nuvoto-made HDMI 2.1 chipset, which affected every AV receiver at the time and broke 4K 120Hz output for gaming on consoles. Companies promised these problems would get fixed but were extremely slow to roll out the change. Denon and Marantz AVRs made…
Good news and bad news. Following the insolvency of Insteon, which led to the abrupt shutdown of their servers and bricking of many user systems, the company has now been acquired by a group of passionate Insteon users. When I say passionate users, Ken Fairbanks, the new CEO worked for SmartLabs between 2004 and 2007…
The Innocn 27C1U is a 60Hz 4K 27-inch monitor with a wide range of connectivity. With this being a relatively young Chinese brand, I had relatively low expectations about this monitor, thinking it would be your standard budget quality hardware you see on Amazon. I have come away pleasantly surprised, and this is an ideal…
I am awful at sleeping. I am a very light sleeper, and the tiniest of noises wake me up, and I am prone to anxiety and palpitations when I try to get to sleep. Nowadays, I am fit and healthy; I also practice good sleep hygiene. I have also reviewed a variety of products to…
