Despite the proliferation of wireless charging options, we still need cables for charging and data transfer. The problem is that many of the available cables look great but are cheap, don’t work well, and quickly wear out. That’s why I almost exclusively use cables from Nomad. Their latest offering, the Nomad Universal Cable for Apple Watch, is something truly unique.

I must admit that prior to this review, I had barely heard the term “Everyday Carry” (EDC). For those unfamiliar with it, the term refers to a range of items that most people would find helpful to carry in their pockets every day.

The set includes the TiSpanner 2.0, the Falcon 1.0 Micro Knife, the Toothpick & Earpick, and the Imperial Tiroler 5-inch.
We all spend a good amount of time in video meetings these days, and looking good in this environment depends on only a few key factors: how you dress, where you shoot, and the lighting. I don’t dare suggest how anyone presents themselves for meetings, and depending on the situation, it is not always easy to select the perfect location, but thankfully, lighting is no longer an issue thanks to the Elgato Key Light Neo.

USB Type-A thumb drives are a ubiquitous part of today’s computing world. Regardless of your platform or the type of work that you do, flash drives make moving files and taking them with you easy and practical.

Most days of the year, I drive a golf cart to work and around town. The problem with an electric cart is the use of flooded lead-acid batteries. They are heavy, messy, and require regular maintenance; on top of that, I have always had corrosion problems. It was a no-brainer I would accept when offered a Vatrer 48V Lithium Battery conversion kit to review; I knew it would be a great upgrade to my ride once installed. Come and take the adventure with me.
I was excited to be offered the Amazfit T-Rex 3 to test and review; I have been an Amazfit fan for years. The GTR 2 was my “sleek, dress up,” and first Amazfit watch, and the original T-Rex has been my daily wear for the last several years. It didn’t take long for me to realize that the first-gen model T-Rex to the new T-Rex 3 was a massive upgrade. It offers 170+ sports modes, up to three weeks of battery life, dual-band GPS, upgraded health monitoring, and many other amazing features.
We’ve long been fans of Pitaka accessories and love seeing how their designs have evolved. Pitaka made its name with thin, tough, aramid cases in basic black. In the years since, they’ve grown their catalog significantly. While you can still get a basic black aramid case, they also have fun woven colors and styles if you want to try something new.

I love lighting, especially outside our home. Just as the holidays approached, we installed a 100′ strand of 100′ eufy Permanent Outdoor Lights E22, which have made all the difference. Not only can we program daily lighting for ambiance around the house, but holidays are also extra fun without all the fuss. These lights will stay up year-round and make our house look great every night.

This version features X-Pac VX-21 Ocean Edition fabric, a high-performance material originally designed as sailcloth, now reimagined with a 100% recycled twist—it is crafted entirely from reclaimed fishing nets.
