I have previously reviewed quite a few Cleer earphones and headphones. They have been a consistently good brand providing high-quality products at an attractive price point. I reviewed the Cleer Ally Plus II over a year ago, and I still use them quite frequently now. Cleer is now hoping to make a dent in the…

Using a thermal camera to reduce draughts & heating costs: HTI-Xintai HTI-19 infrared thermal imaging camera review

I am fortunate enough to be on a fixed contract from 2019 and have until October 2023 before I get hit with the massive increase in energy costs. I have been on a quest to reduce our electricity and gas usage with the hope of offsetting the price rise next year. So far, I have…

Netgear Orbi 860 WiFi 6 Mesh System Review: RBK863S with RBR860S & RBS860

The new Netgear Orbi 860 mesh WiFi system was launched a couple of months ago, along with the superb Orbi 760 mesh system. These two mesh systems are incremental upgrades from the existing excellent Orbi 850 and Orbi 750. I love the Netgear Orbi 760 and think it is one of the all-around mesh systems…

Tronsmart T7 Portable Outdoor Bluetooth Speaker Competition

Following on from yesterday’s giveaway for the Edifier MP230 portable Bluetooth speaker, I am now giving away my review sample of the Tronsmart T7. This isn’t quite as refined as the Edifier MP230, but it is surprisingly loud. It’s IPX7, so it can handle getting wet, and its rubberized design makes it quite durable. I…

PerfectDraft Pro Review – Still the best beer machine, but increasing beer prices make it less desirable

The PerfectDraft beer machine was hugely successful during lockdowns, with everyone desperately trying to have a little normalcy in their lives with a pub-like pint during an incredibly difficult time.

DH Lifelabs Sciaire Mini + HEPA Air Purifier Review : Do air ionisers work?

I have covered air purifiers and indoor air quality quite a lot in the past couple of years. For the air purifiers, these have all just been based on HEPA filters. Even though air purifiers can get expensive, they are essentially just big fan shoving air through a filter, which does make you question why…

FlexSolar Foldable 100W Solar Panel Review vs Mobisolar & Jackery SolarSaga

This is my initial review of the FlexSolar solar panel. My testing has been somewhat limited due to it being December, and I live in the north of the UK. I plan to test this a bit more thoroughly on some sunnier days and will test it again in Spring or Summer. FlexSolar Foldable 100W…
