Solid Cordz 5 Pack Male-to-Female 1ft AC Extension Cords Review

May 26, 2015

Whether you’re a 40 year veteran of videogames, computers, and technology like I am, or you’re a budding enthusiast, I guarantee there’s at least one problem we have in common: bulky power bricks.

Last call on an even better Coleco Adam power supply!

May 24, 2015

After receiving and using for a while what is now the third major (and countless minor) revision of Rey Lopez’s replacement Coleco Adam power supply, I can say with confidence that it’s perfected.

Apple Certified 3.4A Rapid Lightning Car Charger Review

May 21, 2015

Francois et Mimi’s 3.4A Rapid Car Charger (Model: 3ALBK1) bucks the trend of Apple iOS device chargers by coming in black, rather than white. While this may initially seem an odd choice (after all, Apple = white), it arguably blends in better with most car interiors. Francois et Mimi Apple...
