Redodo battery and accessories review

-
Image
Premium portable power stations usually offer a capacity upgrade path by adding battery modules similar in size to the base unit. Specifications Battery capacity: 2112Wh Number of charge cycles: Over 4000 before 20% drop Output power: 2112W Fastest charge time: 2 hours Additional features: Bluetooth, IP65 Operating temperature: -20°C to 60°C Storage temperature: -10°C to 50°C Weight: 15kg Warranty: 5 years Changing other features, such as the charging rate or the inverter power, is usually impossible. If you eventually need more output power, you need to buy a new unit. The Redodo battery and its supporting system change this paradigm, allowing users to build a power station and later extend the inverter or battery charging capacity. Redodo’s battery unit delivers 165 Ah at 12V, equivalent to 2 kWh of usable power, and uses LiFePO4 chemistry instead of lithium-ion, providing over 4,000 charge cy...

Uplift Parsons review: A dream standing desk that fits almost any workspace with elegance and ease

-
Image
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I have tested a vast number of desks. In fact, I would even be able to venture to say that I'm getting close to the arena of saying I've tested most of the key desks in the market. Uplift has been stepping up their game big time. When I saw the Parsons and realized it came in a 48-inch-wide silhouette with those beautiful four legs and a sleek frame, I knew I needed to get my hands on it as soon as possible. Personally, I was absolutely drawn to the sleek frame that wraps around the real walnut desktop. I chose a butcher-block walnut desktop, and I am absolutely in love with it. The material feels fantastic, and the quality is spectacular, and that's coming from somebody who has seen a lot of desks. I have seen a lot of what companies consider their premium desktops, and Uplift stands out among the best. The soft-touch desk legs and ...

Asus ProArt PZ14 review: This surprisingly powerful tablet PC transformed my creative workflow

ASUS ProArt PZ14: 30-second review The Asus ProArt PZ14 arrives as one of the most impressive pieces of hardware to come through the test setup this year. At 9mm thick and weighing in at an impressive 0.79kg, it’s closer in scale to an iPad Pro than a conventional laptop, but with a 14-inch 3K OLED display, and the optional removable keyboard and Asus Pen 3.0, all powered by a Snapdragon X2 Elite processor, it proved to handle every Adobe Creative Suite application without issue. Lightroom Classic, Photoshop, Premiere Pro, After Effects, and DaVinci Resolve all ran well, with no compatibility or performance issues that I have experienced when running ARM machines in the past. Microsoft Office ran as well as ever, and it was only when testing some of the games at the end of the test that those compatibility issues did appear. Some games, such as Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, were a no-go, wh...

I tested the affordable Ruko U11Mini 4K drone — and it's no match for DJI's new flyer

Ruko U11Mini 4K: One-minute review DJI's dominance of the consumer drone market is so total that you have to wonder whether any rival can land a meaningful blow. The Ruko U11Mini 4K is the latest contender to step into the ring, and on paper it looks like a credible one: a sub-250g folding quadcopter with a 1/2-inch CMOS sensor, 4K video, and an optional touchscreen controller that's clearly modeled on DJI's own RC series. Unfortunately, the closer I looked, the more the U11Mini 4K's limitations revealed themselves, and the gulf between Ruko and DJI's similarly-priced beginner drones remains huge. In the air, the U11Mini 4K is a mixed bag. Flight is reasonably stable in calm conditions, but it's easily pushed around by wind, and during one flight I experienced an alarming voltage drop that triggered an unscheduled emergency landing. The touchscreen RC3 controller is a soli...

Garmin Forerunner 70 review: Substantial upgrades that come at a cost

-
Image
Garmin Forerunner 70: One minute review The Garmin Forerunner 70 is a Garmin watch that we’ve waited a long time for. This is the natural successor to the Forerunner 55, the watch that was pitched at beginner runners or runners who like to stick to the basics (and can even run a marathon in under two hours, as it was worn by record-breaker Sebastian Sawe). With such a large time gap between the two watches, it’s hardly surprising to see Garmin make some big changes, not only with the hardware but the software too. It’s clearly been a task of bringing the 70 in line with other new Forerunner watches, which includes adding an AMOLED display and touchscreen while keeping the full array of physical buttons to give it that traditional running watch feel. While keeping the AMOLED on at all times does dent the battery much quicker, it elevates the software and what it’s like to use the 70 as a smartwatc...
