Kugoo KuKirin G4 Electric Scooter Review: A 43MPH Powerhouse Built for Thrill-Seekers and Urban Commuters

Vatrer 48V Lithium Battery Upgrade Review: The Ultimate Power Boost for Your Golf Cart!

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.

Repurpose Offers an Eco-Friendly Option to Harmful Disposable Plastics for Your Summer Gatherings

Using disposable plastic tableware is an environmental faux pas; it’s made from non-renewable resources, takes forever to decompose, and often pollutes our oceans and harms wildlife.

Box Refresh Is a Great Way to Give 50 Shipping Boxes a Second Life

If you’re like me, you do a lot of shopping online, and you know what that means — tons of cardboard boxes that need to be broken down for recycling (best case) or trash pickup (worst case). I try to reuse as many boxes as possible, but some are so stickered up that I’ve nearly destroyed their integrity by ripping the top layer of cardboard down to the inner ribs while trying to remove some of the shipping labels. Box Refresh offers a practical, eco-friendly alternative to reusing your boxes without dealing with that.

Ride1Up Cafe Cruiser Electric Bike Review: A Stylish and Comfortable Ride for Cruising Around Town

The Ride1Up REVV1 I purchased last March is my daily commuter when the weather allows. It is a fantastic moped-style e-bike. The Ride1Up Portola, the company’s first foldable, is a superb bike, especially considering its sub-$1000 price tag; it’s now Raina’s bike. And now we have the Ride1Up Cafe Cruiser, which offers style and comfort in step-over and step-through designs.
