I’m in love. That sounds stupid as hell when using it in the context of a modern electronic device, but here we are. It’s the reality. Limitless Innovations packed some hilariously ridiculous stuff into the Elite 15,000mAh power bank that’s the subject of this review today. I say that because it’s packed to the brim..
Candid Review: Innova 5610 CarScan Pro OBD2 bi-directional scanner
This review is meant to complement an earlier one on the Innova 5210 because the tools are remarkably similar. Both are diagnostics devices that plug into the standard OBD2 port in your gas-only or hybrid vehicle. The 5610 is a step up offering more advanced functions, but if you haven’t read that review already, please..
Candid Review: Innova CarScan Advisor 5210 OBD2 scanner
Cars are machines, sometimes complicated, and they can malfunction or break down like anything else. Typically, when something is wrong with your vehicle and the check engine light comes on, the system computer will also present an error code. Without the appropriate tools, you won’t necessarily know what those diagnostic codes are, or even what..
Candid Review: WearIQ wireless smart audio glasses
I stare at screens all day long with three monitors on my desktop. I sometimes use a laptop with a secondary monitor. Of course, I have my phone, and a Steam Deck I like to play games on. You don’t need to hear all this. It’s not bragging. I’m trying to point out how ridiculous..
Candid Review: Anbernic RG505 retro handheld
I talk about my Steam Deck a lot I know. I probably sound like a broken record at times because I love it. But I know it’s not perfect. I wish the battery life were better. I also feel that sometimes it’s too big to lug around. Wanting something smaller, geared more towards emulation, I..
Candid Review: Card on Guard solar sanitizer tube
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..
Candid Review: PuttAIM+
I am not a skilled golfer; more of a casual enjoyer. I used to have a full set of clubs, but I play so infrequently I gave them away. To complete the trifecta of anti-golf, I don’t usually play full-size courses. When I do play, it’s not competitive, by any means. I’m not obsessed with..
What’s up with your reviews? Are there any products you don’t recommend?
I'm not one to trash things unnecessarily. The internet tends to be very negative. Tech pundits and reviewers claim to be honest, but a lot of times they just like bashing things for sport. That's not to say everything out there deserves praise. There are definitely some products lacking in quality and meaning. But one..
Candid Review: Viaim OpenNote open-ear wireless earbuds
I have a confession to make. I don’t like true wireless earbuds. No, it’s not just because they are insanely popular. No, it’s not because I hate the brands, styles, or how they follow a “less is more” design principle. I simply don’t like earbuds because they don’t stay in my ears. When I’m working..
Candid Review: HOTO Wand cordless spin scrubber
When I was growing up, I was under the impression that elbow grease would solve almost anything. Toy stuck somewhere? Some elbow grease will get it free. Stripped screw tough to loosen? You just need more elbow grease. Nail going into the wood at a weird angle? Well, a bit of elbow grease will do..
Candid Review: MANSCAPED The Performance Package 5.0
I’d like to start off by apologizing because I’m going to be talking about my family jewels quite a bit in this review, or rather, my entire nether regions. It’s relevant. You see, the Performance Package 5.0 from MANSCAPED includes a variety of male grooming products for down under. We’ve already established I’m a hairy..
Candid Review: MANSCAPED Beard Hedger Pro Kit
I’m sure this will come as no surprise to anyone, but I’m a bearded, hairy man. No, that doesn’t signal any kind of professional qualification. But it does tell you I’m the target audience for MANSCAPED’s products, especially the Beard Hedger Pro Kit. While I like to let my beard ride, and do its own..
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: FurZapper pet hair remover
We’re a pet household. Probably to an extent that most would consider over-the-top. At one time, we had four dogs living under one roof. Unfortunately, three of those four dogs passed on, but that was years ago. Today, we have two dogs, two cats, a bearded dragon, and, despite many protests from me — the..
Candid Review: East Oak Ridgewood 30-inch electric smoker
This time we're reviewing the East Oak Ridgewood 30-inch digital smoker and we had a lot of fun making delicious meats, like smoked brisket. See what we thought, below. I took my time with this review for a couple of reasons. First, it was my first time properly smoking meats and foods. I have owned..
Candid Review: Solight MegaPuff solar lantern
I don't go camping very often. I love camping, don't get me wrong, but where I live in Florida, it's just not a pleasant experience. The environment is muggy, hot, and there are a lot of creepy crawlies pretty much anywhere you'd go spend time in the wilderness here. I'm not just talking about small..
Candid Review: Worx WX240L 4V 3-speed cordless screwdriver
I had been planning to buy an electric and cordless screwdriver for a long time, so when I finally pulled the trigger, let's just say it was way past the deadline. And nothing can prepare you for that first time you get your hands on one. If you've ever used a traditional elbow-grease-powered screwdriver at..
Candid Review: Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer sunglasses
Google Glass was an intriguing concept. If you remember it, Google Glass was a pair of smart glasses that incorporated AR technology. The glasses provided users with a mixed reality experience, mostly in real-time. The Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer glasses are very much in the same vein, minus the visual components. At a surface level, that..
Candid Review: KIWI Design G4 Pro Meta Quest controller grips
Controller grips are one of those odd products that require hands-on experience to understand why they're valuable. I'm not saying that to convince you to run out and buy them. I'm saying that because it's true. Especially with controllers like those that come with the Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest 3S. They already come..
