This year I finally caved and bought a portable air conditioner. Ideally, I’d like a multi-split air conditioner, but that requires someone it install it, and ideally when I finally get my loft converted. For many people, a portable air con is the only realistic solution for proper air conditioning. Inventor may not be the…
Huwder is not a company I have heard of before, and they don’t have any presence on Amazon UK. I was a little bit sceptical of their attractively priced and very high spec USB chargers when they approached me for a review. I was, therefore, left pleasantly surprised when this turned out to be a…
I have never been a fan of headphones for long days in the office or gaming, I just find them a bit uncomfortable after a few hours.

The Reolink RLC-510WA was announced back in March. Similar to most of the recent Reolink launches, the main feature upgrade here is the new smart object detection for people and vehicles, allowing you to minimise notifications and make it easier to find recorded events. The RLC-410W would be the likely camera this replaces, so you…
My third affordable TWS earbud review in the past week. The Ugreen HiTune X5 earbuds have not officially been launched yet, but they will be available in July from Amazon and other retailers. The Ugreen press release only states that these are powered by a Qualcomm SoC. I would expect this to be the Qualcomm…
In a few days time the Yeedi Vac Station wil be available to buy with an RRP of $499 but a $100 early-bird coupon available for anyone that subscribes to their newsletter. I was quite excited about trying out this robotic vacuum and had planned to do a full review of it. Unfortunately, the review…
With the Helium Hotspots finally be shipped, many people will want to maximise the amount of HNT they can mine via their hotspot.
