At Gear Diary, we review quite a few e-bikes from various manufacturers, but we have yet to test any Jasion models. The company was founded in 2020 and now offers a line of folding, fat-tire, and cruiser bikes. In this review, we examine the Jasion RetroVolt Pro, an upgrade from the previous model in many ways.
Living about thirty miles from my property means I can’t always slip away to check on hunting spots or cattle. Trail cameras do the heavy lifting for me, and lately, the Magic Eagle EagleCam 5 has been my go-to set of eyes in the field. It’s a smart 4G camera that doesn’t require a SIM card, which feels a bit like wizardry until you realize it’s using SignalSync to automatically latch onto whichever local carrier has the strongest signal. The connection setup took only a moment, and it has stayed reliably strong for months.
We recently reviewed the MAMMOTION LUBA 2 AWD, and it has been a workhorse at my house. It is bright, quiet, and tough, always keeping my yard looking sharp while I am away or doing other chores. MAMMOTION mowers use AI precision mapping and RTK+Vision navigation to glide effortlessly around obstacles and deliver a clean cut without a single wire.
Canvas bell tents keep appearing in those dreamy Instagram campsite photos with gravel roads, steaming mugs, and dogs who clearly run the place. The best tents strike a balance between rustic fun and enough comfort to make you forget there’s a couch at home. White Duck Outdoors understands this perfectly; their Altimus Bell Tent and Avalon Bell Tent lines show what happens when tradition meets smart design. What follows is an examination of what these tents are, what each includes, how they hold up beyond the photo opportunity, and which type of camper each is designed for.
It’s hard to believe it, but the temperatures are about to start coming down. We’re still sweltering here in Texas, but our friends up north are already feeling that first crisp bite of fall in the air. Before long, the jackets, gloves, and beanies will be out in full force, and if you’ve ever been caught off guard by a sudden cold snap, you know how miserable that can be. Whether you’re walking the dog, attending a late-season football game, or trying to avoid freezing during a morning commute, it pays to be prepared. The Men’s Weston Heated Jacket is…
As we gear up for rifle hunting season, getting everything ready to hit the woods is essential. The rifle is the most vital piece of hunting gear to protect while traveling, and the Pelican 1750 Protector Long Case is the perfect companion. When paired with the Pelican 1750PRS RE-SET Kit, the case becomes a truly custom protector built to handle the harshest environments on earth.
When life gets chaotic and weekends vanish faster than a cold drink on a hot day, lawn care can slip straight to the bottom of the to-do list. That’s when a robot mower starts to sound less like a luxury and more like salvation. Think of it as a Roomba for your grass, except smarter, stronger, and far more fun to watch in action. Enter the MAMMOTION LUBA 2 AWD, a wire-free, all-wheel-drive robotic mower designed to keep your yard trimmed and tidy without any effort from you.
Charles and I have reviewed numerous electric bikes over the past few years, including several from Heybike. And if you know us, you know we don’t just test bikes for a day and call it a review. We unbox, take initial rides, and then put them to actual use. Since getting the Heybike Mars 3.0, I’ve ridden it all around town, including sketchy stretches of gravel — our town has terrible roads — and I’ve been impressed. Really impressed. Here’s why.
Whether chasing kids in youth sports or sitting in a backyard with friends, a comfortable chair is a great companion. Portable chairs have come a long way, and the GCI Adjustable Rocker is a game-changer. The company offers a wide variety of foldable rocking chairs, and the Adjustable Rocker has quickly become my favorite.
Packing for the backcountry usually means tough choices: bring the heavy gear and eat well, or go light and settle for sad, half-cooked camp meals. GrilTi 2.0 wants to change that with a titanium grill that’s light enough to toss in a backpack yet built to handle a proper meal over real fire. It’s not just a slab of metal; it’s a three-zone cooking surface designed for everything from seared steak to fried eggs, with enough clever design choices to make you forget you’re miles from the nearest kitchen.
I’ll be honest, when I first heard of an electric wagon, I thought it sounded kind of gimmicky. An electric wagon? Really? But after dealing with way too many back-breaking camping trips and sports tournaments, I decided to give the Litheli W1 Pro a shot. Retailing for $219.99, it’s surprisingly helpful when you need to carry a bundle.
The Jetboil Genesis Basecamp System isn’t a backpacking espresso gimmick or a heavy steel beast that eats your trunk space. It’s a two-burner camp stove that folds into itself, slips into a carry bag, and opens to cook like a real kitchen range — not a compromise. If you’ve ever coaxed dinner from a sputtering camp stove, you’ll appreciate the luxury of something that just works. That’s the headline: the Genesis Basecamp is built for people who cook actual meals when camping, not just for those rehydrating noodles.
The Hypershell X Ultra has officially arrived, and while the phrase “wearable exoskeleton” might sound like something reserved for sci-fi heroes, this device is designed for ordinary adventurers who just want to go farther without their legs crying mutiny. Whether your idea of adventure is a multi-day hike, a Saturday spent cycling, or just trying to keep up with kids on a family outing, the X Ultra promises to take a hefty load off your muscles and put it onto its robotic shoulders, or in this case, hips.
At some point, we may regret outsourcing so many household chores to robots. Until then, however, it’s exciting to see how they’re evolving from proof of concept to rapidly improving “how did we live without this” devices! MAMMOTION has been leading the way with their lawnmowers, and their latest devices out of IFA 2025 show that if you’ve been on the fence about robotic landscapers, now is the time to jump in.
If you thought pool cleaning was destined to stay stuck in the land of long poles, leaky hoses, and a sore back, Aiper is here to change your mind. Meet the Aiper Scuba V3, its first AI-powered robotic pool cleaner, and it looks ready to bring a little brains to backyard maintenance. Scheduled to hit the market in early 2026 for $1,199, the Scuba V3 blends a sleek design, camera-based smarts, and a surprising sense of purpose for something that spends its life underwater chasing leaves and dirt.
When the lights flicker during a summer brownout or vanish in the middle of a winter storm, the difference between chaos and calm comes down to one thing: backup power. Portable power stations have become essential, and the DJI Power 2000 enters this market with the confidence of a small-scale power plant. It may seem odd that a company known for drones is tackling blackouts, but inside this sleek box is unmistakable DJI DNA, with a sharp design, fast performance, and a few quirks. The real question? Is the DJI Power 2000 the backup your home can count on?
I’ve ridden my fair share of electric scooters over the years- from lightweight commuters to oversized off-road monsters- and I can say this: the Segway GT3 SuperScooter is something special. It hits all the sweet spots and offers an amazing experience. It’s not trying to be the fastest scooter in the world, but it blends real-world speed, premium build quality, and thoughtful features in a way that makes it both fun and practical.
You might balk at the idea of spending $360 on a battery-powered leaf blower, but after spending a couple of months with the Toro 60V MAX 900 CFM Brushless Leaf Blower, I can say it’s more than just a pricey convenience; it’s a serious workhorse. It tackles heavy yard work like a gas blower but without the maintenance, fumes, or noise. I wanted something powerful yet easy to grab from the garage and use on the fly; Toro delivered. This blower is fast, efficient, and, most importantly, ready whenever I am, with no cords, no gas, and no drama.
The MEEPO V3 MAX electric longboard is widely touted as an excellent beginner board, and after spending some time with it, I can see why. As a 37-year-old man who has skated short and longboards for most of my life but never touched an electric board, I thought I would transition seamlessly. I quickly learned, however, that approaching electric boards requires a learning mindset, especially if you think hopping into the higher gears right away is a good idea; spoiler alert — It isn’t.
When most people hear “DJI,” they picture drones filming swooping aerial shots of misty peaks, or possibly drones terrorizing local geese into reconsidering life choices. But DJI isn’t content to merely dominate the skies. Enter the DJI Power 2000, their newest portable power station that swaps propellers for silent power backup, ready to keep your gadgets alive when the grid taps out or your campsite turns into a tech-dead wilderness.
I use my pellet smoker at least three times a week during the summer. This creates a lot of ash and mess, and is no fun to clean up. Craftsman has released a product to help make ash cleanup quicker and easier with the 5-Gallon Grill and Ash Vacuum. Speed up the cleanup with this excellent vacuum.
