2026 Top 5 Magnetic Power Banks for iPhone & Android

March 29, 2026March 29, 2026 by Walter Smyth

They’re bulky, require cables, and end up being something you only bring on trips. Magnetic power banks changed that. These actually get used daily because they snap on and just work. And in 2026, with Qi2 bringing MagSafe-style charging to Android, these aren’t just for iPhone anymore, they’re becoming universal. Here are the 5 most … Read more

DeWalt Car Jump Starter Review

September 21, 2023 by Jim Szymanski

Irony is my best friend. While searching for the DeWalt-compatible Keurig coffee maker I bought last month, I ran across this bad boy – a DeWalt Car Jump Starter.

Did you take my headphone jack?

November 11, 2025October 10, 2017 by Matt Anderson

Trending these days in the fast lane of high end hardware is the forced retirement of something most of us did not agree to.

“One Does Not Simply Fix a Printer”

January 23, 2017 by Jim Szymanski

Yesterday, my Canon MX892 Inkjet died. Actually, just the print-head died. But as the print-head costs $96, and the printer was six years old, I figured it was time for a change.

April 12, 2016April 3, 2016 by Jim Szymanski

There are two things that will get this avid consumer to part with his hard earned cash quickly; tech and tools. I started collecting, and accumulating, tools when I was a teenager.

NexDock is Almost There, or Here

November 11, 2025April 2, 2016 by Jim Szymanski

It’s so close I can almost touch it. With 14 days to go and at 90% of their fixed goal, I’ve got a good feeling about this. And it doesn’t hurt that Winsupersite recently offered a positive review (and the author ordered a NexDock). That’s after WindowsPhoneCentral did the same a day earlier. Will … Read more

Microsoft’s Continuum Display Dock Now Supports USB Monitors

February 6, 2016 by Jim Szymanski

Well, not really. Sorry for the click-bait title, but I am hoping to get Microsoft’s attention and catch them in a “duh” moment. The whole idea of Continuum excites me. Three days after I powered on on my Lumia 950, I had a USB-C to Display Port adapter (only 1366 x 768) connected to … Read more

Reviewers can be real dumb asses sometimes… (MobilityLeaks)

January 18, 2016October 26, 2015 by Jim Szymanski

Today I decided it was time to get a new carry case for the new toy arriving on Monday. I have been using this old Samsonite case (see below) to tote around my laptops, along with power cables, portable DVD drive, Ethernet adapter & cable, mini display port adapter, as well as the little Logitech … Read more
