While I’ve never experienced the issue the RHA Wireless Flight Adapter solves, it’s only because I always travel with wired headphones. But, if you have a great set of wireless headphones, and forget the wire, or it doesn’t have one. For $50, this neat little Bluetooth adapter is a brilliant way to sort the how-do-I-get-airplane(or any 3.5mm wired source)-audio-on-my-headphones problem. […]

Smart doorbells are awesome. And one that integrates, even if only via IFTTT, with other ecosystems is even more awesome. So it’s great to see the new 1080p 170º video doorbell from DIY home security oriented LifeShield. Price is competitive at $200, so one to watch if you have a LifeShield system, or even if you don’t… LifeShield Enhances DIY […]
Read moreWith real support for BTLE, and massive sensor pools, Thread 1.2 takes a major step forward towards being the home automation (HA) protocol that can really do everything. Even more importantly, all the big players (cough… newcomers) are lining up behind it, so there is massive backing. While I personally have a [mostly] Z-Wave installation at home, I would love […]

Details are a bit light on how SiliconDust’s new horizontal scaling scheme is implemented, but it seems a welcome addition to the flexibility of the platform, especially with the introduction of the Scribe and Servio models. While the long time users are used to the “complexity” of adding additional storage to the NAS/PC/whatever these new hardware bits obfuscate that complexity […]

If you’ve thought “the T20 is amazing, but it’s kind of hard to commit to a wired-only headset especially as the 3.5mm jack fades away”, apparently you’re not alone (and I wouldn’t blame you). But, there is now a cake-and-eat-it-too solution to this dilemma, because the T20 is now a wired, and wireless, you-buy-one-thing-and-get-to-swap-cables-for-how-you-want-to-use-it bundle of sonic goodness. This is […]

I installed a Slickwrap clear matte skin on my OnePlus 7 Pro to reduce slipperiness, but after only two weeks it’s already messed up to the point where I need to remove it. Really ought to be more durable.

Have a Roku, an over-the-air (OTA) HDHomeRun tuner, and frustration about the inability to use the two together? SD just solved your gripe with the just announced BETA for live TV viewing on the platform. Bad news is that DVR isn’t there yet, but the great news is that they’re working on it. So like many things, a touch of […]

If I were more a drag-a-cooler-somewhere kind of guy, and the price was closer to impulse territory (and I hadn’t sworn off crowd funding random stuff ;)) I would totally be all over the GoSun Chill battery/solar powered cooler. It’s such a neat idea, and if it actually works, a great way to ensure that your food doesn’t end up […]

The OnePlus 7 Pro is the most expensive OnePlus device to date, but its premium features and feel make it completely worth it. Top end specs are only really let down by…. well, nothing. There are a few early phone issues, but with two updates already issued in the short time I’ve had it I’m confident that OnePlus will sort […]

We had a quick peek at the HDHR Servio ($150) & Scribe, in Duo ($200) & Quatro ($250) forms, at CES, so it was only a matter of time. And here they are, at least in pre-order format. They are BestBuy exclusive (for now), so you’ll need to head on over to their site to do the business. Expected to […]
