It works. I don’t know the exact science, and I’ll do my best to explain some of it below, but the biggest thing you should take away from this review is that I’ve been using the Card on Guard tube in my pool for over a month, a little longer actually, and it works. While..

We're coming up on some cooler weather, which means it's the perfect time for barbecues and long-term smokes. As much as I love a good cigar, I'm talking about smoking meats, of course. Having owned an East Oak smoker for quite a while now, and I love it, I can attest to the usability and..

INIU Pocket Rocket P50 is a ridiculously small 45W power pack
The INIU Pocket Rocket P50 is the "world's smallest" 10,000mAh fast-charging power pack, and it's adorable as hell.

AR stands for augmented reality, and if you haven't used AR glasses before, you're in for a real treat. Unlike VR, most AR designs don't wrap around your head. Instead, they look like regular glasses or sunglasses. That's also true of the Rokid Max 2, but what makes them particularly interesting is they have displays..

Candid Review: East Oak 150-gallon deck box
You wouldn’t expect a deck box or a large storage bin to make for a solid review on a tech site like Techigar, but, surprisingly, the opposite is true. To understand why, we first need to establish how many deck boxes I’ve been through over the years. From cheap, flimsy varieties with no hydraulic mechanics..

Candid Review: Limitless 10000mAh fast-charging power bank
This one is going to be short and sweet. That’s not a bad thing, and it’s not because I don’t have much to say about the product. But it’s a power bank. There aren’t a ton of complex features packed in, it does exactly what it’s supposed to, and it’s an accessible, reliable stand-in for..
