Vers Audio 1Q Bluetooth Speaker
There is no shortage of options when it comes to Bluetooth speakers. The Vers Audio 1Q is worth a look from a style standpoint. Specs are ok but aren’t particularly amazing. Bluetooth 2.1, a 3.5mm auxiliary input, 30-foot range, and a 6.5-watt 2-inch speaker. Battery life is good at 10 hours. This speaker stands up […]
Boombotix Boombot Bass Station With Subwoofer Dock Just $29.99 Shipped
The Boombotix Bass Station bluetooth wireless speaker isn’t your average speaker. The hexagon shaped speaker is pretty great on its own but when paired with its 15W subwoofer dock things get a bit more interesting. Some extra features include a 2 gigabyte flash drive, clip-mount, Siri / Google voice control, speakerphone capability, waterproof to 3-feet, and […]
Amazon Tap
Amazon has been super busy. They are launching rockets, flying test delivery drones, delivering packages the same day they are ordered, and continuing to improve on existing products. The latest product improvement comes to the Amazon Echo in the form of a wireless version, the Amazon Tap. The Amazon Tap is basically the same as […]
Caterpillar S60 Smartphone
Caterpillar is at it again with another rugged phone. Remember the B100? Well their latest phone, the Cat S60, is more than just tough. The Cat S60 is the first smartphone with an integrated FLIR thermal camera. This makes finding water leaks, insulation issues, and potential electrical problems much easier. The casing is Mil Spec […]
Fusion Smart Guitar
Imagine an electric guitar with an embedded iPhone dock, lithium ion batteries, built-in Class-D 20W amplification, Peerless speakers, and loaded guitar app. You would be imagining the new Fusion Smart Guitar. The app allows users to control the amp effects, run a looping station, and record jam sessions over 8-tracks. I wonder why this took so […]
Single Wheel Hoverboard
The single wheel electric skateboard isn’t a new concept (remember the OneWheel?) but the Hoverboard refines the idea and adds to the existing technology. It has a longer range, faster top speed, a quicker charge time, and I imagine is lighter at 25-lbs. The only wheel is a 10-inch wheel directly in the center of the […]
AfterShokz Bluez 2, Revisited: Bone Conduction Grew Up (and Rebranded)
In 2015 we asked the important question: what the heck is a bone conduction headphone? Then we pointed at the Aftershokz Bluez 2 (~$80) and said, essentially, “your cheekbones are speakers now.” Cute, correct, and—checking the calendar—ancient history as a shopping recommendation. Fast-forward to 2026: AfterShokz rebranded to Shokz (officially around late 2021), the Bluez […]
Dot – World’s Smallest Bluetooth Headset
Another damn Kickstarter. Oh well, at least it gets cool products to market that may not have otherwise made it. The Dot claims to be the world’s smallest bluetooth earbud. It weighs in at just 3.5 grams, is water resistant, has two onboard microphones (for active noise cancellation), and can play music for 6-hours. Even […]

I currently own the SMH10D-11 set and really enjoy being able to have music streaming from my phone to the helmet. It is also quite handy for communicating with my friends via the intercom while on rides or taking phone […]
GoPro HeroCast Transmitter For Live Wireless HD Broadcasting
Broadcasters who use GoPro Hero cameras for unique immersive shots should be pretty excited about the GoPro HeroCast Transmitter. There are two versions the HeroCast and the HeroCast BacPac. The HeroCast transmitter makes it so that broadcasters can access and use the great video live via a wireless feed. In other words they don’t have […]
