This post started as just a review of the affordable OMBAR RGB Video Light. However, it is a relatively simple product, and there is not a lot to write about. There are many competing products on Amazon, and the defining feature of this product is its affordability compared to the others. Overview If you hadn’t…
The term “smart” is the right term to use when describing the latest advancement in the development of smart speakers. Smart speakers play your favorite music, automatically control the electronic components of your home, and give answers to questions asked verbally by anyone inside of a house. According to the audio experts at Selby, smart…
Last month I reviewed the excellent Airpulse A80 stereo speakers. This month I have been checking out the new Airpulse P100X, which is a multi-driver wireless desktop speaker system with a beautiful retro-inspired design. Specification Colour Cherry Wood Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.1 with APTX HD Power Amplifiers 2 x 10W + 40W Mid-woofer 4.5″ Aluminium Cone…
It is a big year for Garmin; they have already launched two flagship products, the Fenix 7 and Epix 2 as well as the popular Garmin Instinct 2. They are also believed to be launching the Forerunner 255 and 255s soon, then the Forerunner 955, Venu Sq 2, Vivomove Trend, Austin and Instinct Analog. First…
I previously reviewed the EnGenius ECW230 access point in 2020. It was a well-specced mid to high-end AP with a 4×4 radio and 2.5GbE. It was one of the first Engenius products I had reviewed that ditched the ezMaster system for the new Engenius Cloud. The EnGenius ECW220S is a lower specced access point, but…
The Logitech MX Vertical is the most popular verticle ergonomic mouse on the market. Logitech is now expanding its product range with a new smaller and more affordable option, the Logitech Lift. I have never used any ergonomic peripherals before. I occasionally get RSI symptoms in my left hand from typing all day, and I…
Yesterday, I reported that Insteon has gone out of business and shut down all their cloud services with no notice. The Insteon app uses the Insteon servers to process the requests from the app, effectively making it useless. Things like schedules are stored on the hub, so these will continue to be processed. However, not…
Update: I have written a basic guide on how to get Insteon working with Home Assistant on Windows. Update 2: Confirming what we already knew, Insteon has formally ceased trading and has posted a notification on the website. Users are also being contacted with a Important Notice to Creditors. It is currently being reported that…
This will be a bit of a short review. Recently I gave a glowing review of the Eufy Security Dual Camera Video Doorbell, and I was a big fan of the Video Doorbell 2K I reviewed two years ago. When I did the Video Doorbell 2K review, Eufy didn’t sell additional chimes. You had a…
After one week of warm weather, it is probably time for me to prepare for summer. I have previously covered the best pedestal fans for sleeping. The key to these fans is as many speeds settings as possible, allowing you to run it as slowly as possible and, therefore, silently. It is the opposite for…
This week, Polar announced two new watches, the Polar Pacer Pro and the standard Pacer. These are geared toward runners but should function well as multisports watches. The two watches shake up the Polar range, effectively making the M2 obsolete and reducing the appeal of their premium-priced watches. In theory, that’s good for the consumer,…
The TRENDnet TEG-S762 and TEG-S750 were announced in the UK back in February. The TEG-S750 is perhaps the more interesting of the two models being a 5 port 10Gbps switch priced at around £300. As far as I am aware, there are no other five port 10Gbps switches on the market at this price. The…
