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..
I tried every Mitra9 flavor and these were my favorite
I’m not being funny. The new Mitra9 root beer and cream soda flavors in the mitragynine (kratom) seltzers are some of the most pleasant and unique drinks I’ve had in a long while. Generally, I’m a berry guy, and my favorite flavor is raspberry; blue raspberry, specifically. But these two flavors stood out, and I..
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: Arcade Momentum belt (2025)
I don’t like wearing belts very much — well, traditional belts anyway. I do it because I have to. And that's because I don’t like my pants or shorts sagging low. No shade if you do; if that’s your style, go for it. It just doesn’t feel comfortable to me. But it also doesn’t feel..
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: Rabbit Air A3 ultra quiet air purifier
Charm is not something I've come to expect from minor smart home devices like air purifiers. Sure, most are designed to be sleek. They might blend in with your modern decor or complement your choice of wall paint nicely. But what I'm getting at is that they're more functional and homely. However, the Rabbit Air..
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..
I’m going to try (and review) the Card on Guard tube in my pool
Not too long ago, I covered the Card on Guard Tube for one of Techigar's tech blurbs. The idea is to help reduce chlorine in pools and spas by up to 50% or more. That's because, while we still use chlorine in pools to sanitize water, those chemicals aren't ideal for our bodies. Using natural..
Candid Review: KIWI design K4 Duo AIO Audio Head Strap for Meta Quest 3 and 3S
I would not be happy with my Meta Quest 3S without my KIWI design gear. That’s the truth. Through varied features, KIWI design’s add-ons have vastly improved the experience for me and my family. Whether it’s making the headset more comfortable to wear, boosting the battery life for longer play or wrapping the controllers in..
Candid Review: SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro (for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra)
I normally don’t break phones. But not long ago, I was rough-housing with my kids, I had my phone on the nightstand by my bed, and the commotion caused it to fall off. It was the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, and I’ve had it for years at this point, still loved it, and wasn’t planning..
