Mighty Spark Chicken Snack Sticks Review: A Surprisingly Tasty Protein Snack That Doesn’t Feel Like Punishment

When it comes to high-protein meat sticks, I usually expect something practical more than exciting. They are the kind of snack you toss in a bag for later, not the kind of food you get genuinely curious about. That was my mindset going into the Mighty Spark Chicken Snack Sticks. These high-protein meat sticks promise low calories, decent protein, and a healthier-sounding ingredient list, but the real question is simple: do they actually taste good?

Mondo Robotics Introduces Beni, a 4K Camera Robot That Follows, Films, Jumps, and Tries Not to Become Drawer Clutter

Mondo Robotics is bringing Beni, a portable all-terrain camera robot, to Kickstarter with a pitch that’s easy to understand: it follows you, films you, and tries very hard not to become one more gadget that sits in a drawer. Beni can jump up to 10″, self-right after a fall, reach 17.9 mph, and record in 4K at 30 frames per second. It’s built for families, pet parents, solo creators, and athletes who want footage without having to hand someone a phone or set up a tripod. That alone is useful, though the robot-sidekick angle warrants healthy skepticism.

PEPPER EMS Suit Review: Bring Science Fiction to Real Life with This Muscle-Zapping, Workout-Maximizing Gear!

If there’s one constant in the world of fitness gadgets, it’s that someone is always offering you optimizations. It can be as simple as something like fat grips to work your forearms while you lift, or as complex as connected wearables and heart rate monitors designed to keep your workout in a precise effort zone. Sometimes these are genuinely great improvements, and sometimes they’re just window dressing. We were offered the chance to try the PEPPER EMS Suit, which leverages electromagnetic stimulation to maximize your workout in less time. Is it a winner? Let’s check it out!

Fitnexa SomniPods 3 Earbuds Review: Having Trouble Sleeping? Maybe These Can Help!

Everybody sleeps. Duh. And yet, everybody is unique in how well—or how badly—they sleep. I tend to sleep rather well (and heavily), but occasionally I have bouts of sleeplessness. When that happens, I resort to background noise on my clock radio, a floor fan blowing in my face, or even music via my trusty Apple AirPods Pro earbuds. The point is that everyone has tried-and-true tricks that work for them, with varying degrees of success. Enter the Fitnexa SomniPods 3 earbuds. These light, tiny wonders can help those with sleep issues, but they are not perfect.

Aranet Radon Plus Digital Radon Detector Review: Find Out in 10 Minutes if You’re in Danger

The Aranet Radon Plus Digital Radon Detector is one of those gadgets you hope you never “need,” but once you have it, you won’t want to be without it. Radon is invisible, odorless, and potentially dangerous, so having a simple way to monitor it in real time brings real peace of mind. After dealing with elevated radon levels in my own home a few years ago, I’ve become a big believer in keeping tabs on it, and this little sensor makes that easier than ever.

Birdfy Hum Feeder Duo Smart Hummingbird Feeder Review: Watch Nature’s Acrobats in Action!

A friend of mine has a pretty backyard with one of those Wi-Fi-enabled bird feeders. “It’s a lot of fun,” he said, “You should get one!” Well, I certainly do NOT have a pretty backyard, but I’ve often toyed with the idea of putting up a hummingbird feeder. What if I could attract hummingbirds AND get them on video? Enter the Birdfy Hum Feeder Duo, which boasts dual 2K cameras.

Eli Health Hormometer Cortisol Test Review: Feeling Stressed? Find Out If You Really Are

Everyone feels stressed at one point or another, but how do you know if it’s a chronic health issue or just a one-time problem? You can ask your doctor to test you, but it will involve a blood draw, be expensive, and the results will be for just that one point in time. What if you could test in the comfort of your own home without needles and have a result in as little as 20 minutes? That’s what the Eli Health Hormometer Cortisol Test Kit claims to offer. They sent me a kit, and I tried it. Let’s see…

Huffy Quantis Kids Bike (24-Inch) Review: A Little Assistance for the Little Ones That Comes with Some Caveats

The Huffy Quantis is a Class 2 electric bike designed for younger riders who are ready for something bigger, faster, and a little more grown-up. With 24-inch wheels, a rigid frame, a 250W motor, a 36V 7.8Ah battery, six speeds, three pedal-assist levels, and a left thumb throttle, it seemed like a smart next step for my 11-year-old son, who had outgrown his 20-inch bike and desperately wanted an e-bike. At 5 feet tall and 110 pounds, he fit the target rider well, while my 6-foot, 205-pound frame provided useful testing perspective.

Time Atlas App Review: Automatically Record Your Adventures to Relive Later

I still have my first diary from the 1970s, and over the past six decades I’ve filled dozens more. I’d actually rather call them journals or life logs, since I’ve never been the kind of person who writes about feelings much. I use a journal to capture everyday activities and adventures so I can relive them years later. There have even been years when I didn’t keep one at all, and I regret that now. Wouldn’t it be great if an app could automatically record your daily activities and travels for you? There is. It’s called Time Atlas.

Sinocare Blood Pressure Monitor Making Home Health Tracking Less Intimidating

Health tracking has become part of everyday life for a lot of people. Step counts, sleep scores, heart rate data—most of us check them without thinking twice anymore. Calories, hydration, oxygen levels: these have all found a natural place in daily health routines.

Segway Navimow X430 Review: A 4WD All-Terrain Tank That Mows Fast but Leaves the Fine Details to You

The Segway Navimow X430 is one of the most capable pieces of mowing hardware we’ve tested. Four-wheel drive, dual suspensions, an 84% slope rating, and a class-leading 17-inch cutting width mean it chews through terrain that stops other robots cold—and it finishes a big yard faster than anything else we’ve run. But all that muscle comes in a body that looks and moves like a security robot, and for a $2,499 mower, it missed more spots and left more manual trimming than we expected. If your yard has serious slopes or rough ground, nothing else here competes. If you want…

The Nanoleaf Smart Multicolor Ceiling Light Does More Than Just Brighten the Room

Overhead lighting usually has one job, and it often does that job with all the charm of a doctor’s office waiting room. The Nanoleaf Smart Multicolor Ceiling Light aims to give that ceiling fixture a more flexible role, combining bright everyday illumination with multicolor effects, an upward ambient glow, and smart home controls in a slim, flush-mount design. Available now for $79.99 in the U.S. and $99.99 in Canada, it’s designed for bedrooms, offices, kitchens, and living rooms where a single light may need to handle work, dinner, movie night, and the occasional dramatic playlist.

Titaner Voyager urns the Carry-On Into a Titanium Gear Vault for Travelers Who Pack the Good Stuff

The Titaner Voyager is a zipperless, pure-titanium carry-on aimed at travelers who’ve had enough of cracked shells, jammed zippers, wobbly wheels, and that faint airport-carousel dread that comes from watching your bag take another anonymous hit. Built around a Grade 1 titanium shell and an optional waterproof gear vault, it’s designed for cameras, electronics, documents, medication, passports, and the rest of the things you’d rather not entrust to vibes and a thin layer of fabric. It’s launching on Kickstarter, with early pricing starting at about $579 before shipping. That last part matters, because this is still a crowdfunding campaign.

Mattel Creations’ San Diego Comic-Con 2026 Collectible Lineup Leans into Fandom, Noodles, Monsters, Raptors, and Gym Bro Skeletor

Mattel Creations’ San Diego Comic-Con 2026 collectible lineup is coming in with the kind of oddly specific fan-service energy that tends to make convention exclusives either irresistible or easy to side-eye from a safe distance. This year’s “Pop Culture Power Picks” collection pulls from Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters, Monster High, Jurassic World, and Masters of the Universe, with four limited collectibles that range from a 4″ chibi-style demon-hunting trio to a gym-obsessed Skeletor.

Duracell 5000 Lumens Tri-Powered Lantern Review: Brighter, Smarter, but Missing One Handy Feature

If you’re shopping for a lantern for camping, storm prep, or general emergency use, the updated Duracell 5000 Lumens Tri-Powered Lantern has a lot going for it. It keeps the same basic design as the earlier model, adds a brighter top output, and still offers multiple ways to keep it running. But it also drops one feature that made the older Duracell Tri-Mode 3000 Lumens Lantern a little more versatile.

Now on Kickstarter, the bulb screws into a standard E26 or E27 socket and turns an ordinary floor lamp, table lamp, or ceiling fixture into a moving projection light with 16 million colors, smooth dimming, music sync, and aurora-style effects that can wash across your walls and ceiling rather than only glowing behind a shade at bedtime.

Huion Note E Review: The Little Tablet That Could(ish)

I’m a bit of a digital notepad aficionado. I have loved digital pen products since my first exposure to a Wacom tablet in the heady 1990s. I’m not an artist; I’m just a cheesy doodler. It doesn’t matter, though – I think the ability to directly input handwritten content is just amazing technology. I am also a big fan of e-ink and epaper. It offers certain benefits over a standard display but has its downsides. So, when Huion offered their Note E tablet, I was very curious to see whether the hardware lived up to the hype.
