We recently had a thunderstorm that knocked the power out at my school. I was stuck across the street in the football field house, but my first class came in and used the Growatt VITA 550 I was reviewing to charge their devices. I often bring items I have in for review to show my tech classes, and they were excited to have access to this product in particular.
First aid is something I take seriously in my life. Whether at work on the football field out in the woods or working on the ranch, there are many opportunities for first aid to be needed. The Uncharted Supply Co. First Aid Plus adds some helpful survival items to their latest kit, which makes it even more useful. Let’s take a look.
Yoshino is bringing a new solid-state battery technology to a new power station. Most of the power stations I have reviewed use LifePO4 battery technology, which does work great. Instead, the Yoshino B4000 SST uses Solid-State Lithium batteries, bringing a class-leading power-to-weight ratio. Long story short, this power station packs a big punch in a small package.
Audio is a large part of my life, whether it is the sound from watching television or listening to music in my home bar. I love great-sounding speakers and have tried many Bluetooth options in my bar without finding any that I liked. I was recently sent the Vigilant Audio SwitchOne Wireless Powered Speakers to try out, and they did not disappoint.

We recently reviewed the LiTime 100-Watt portable solar panel. The panel pairs well with the LiTime D320 Portable Power Station if you need portable power.

We have covered and reviewed several EcoFlow products, which have proven to be excellent ways to power any lifestyle.

Anker has recently upped their game with larger portable power stations with their Solix products. Solix has recently released several battery options and some new Anker products.

Solar has become an important option in today’s power needs, especially while using battery generators, being off-grid outdoors, or dealing with a natural disaster. For outdoor enthusiasts, a portable power option is often the best choice. I prefer solar options that travel well, and the LiTime 100-Watt Monocrystalline Portable Solar Panel checks all of the boxes.
Some of the issues people see with Solar Generators are the heavy weight and the lack of swappable batteries. Decarbon Venture has introduced a new line of power products, the DCV Airbase Quad and DCV Airbase Duo, which are half the weight and deliver twice the power of other similar products. Co-founder Geoff Elwood developed the idea while living off-grid in the Australian Outback during the pandemic.

Anker is the world’s #1 mobile charging brand, and one of the reasons we like their products so much is because the brand is constantly innovating and developing quality, long-lasting gear while keeping conservation in mind. Several new products were unveiled at the recent Anker RE Charge event in New York City, including a few from Anker sub-brands Soundcore, Nebula, and Eufy. Here’s a quick look at some of the newly-announced wish-list-worthy items.
I have been a user of Vivint products for a few years now and have had nothing but great experiences. The pro line of cameras has added many features, including detection zones and alarms. These features have been released in the new Vivint Indoor Camera Pro, and I was able to self-install one to test it out.
A chef friend recently discussed the importance of his knife roll and how those tools shape how he works in the kitchen. I do a lot of cooking and cooking reviews and figured I needed to work on my knife roll. It just so happened I had the opportunity to review the Vosteed Grandknife minibarbar.
Cooler season is upon us; it’s time to camp, picnic, BBQ, and take trips to the beach! It is much easier and less messy if you do not have to haul ice to keep everything chilled.

Anytime I can find an excuse to cook, I jump on it. Recently, I was able to try out the DREO ChefMaker. Sure, we have all seen the next big thing in cooking, so how good can it possibly be? Well, I gave it a try, and let me tell you, I was impressed! Let’s take a look.
