This new Dakine backpack is one of the most compact, technical backpacks on the market with a sleek design. I have bought and tried other backpacks and this one suits me perfectly.
I am so impressed with this backpack from day one. It's the right size for an everyday pack. There are some many features to this backpack, but one of the coolest is a camel pack holder and a hideaway spot for the mouthpiece, so nice! It's so comfortable as the chest straps open big enough, so it doesn't restrict your breathing!! Some other things that impressed me as the size of the bag is bigger than some but doesn't feel it or heavy which is amazing.
Targus is a top name in computer bags for technicians. Personally, I feel they have not disappointed with this gaming backpack. The bag is generously sized and can accommodate a larger screen laptop for gaming. I bought it for my gaming laptop which has a screen size of 17.5” and it fits perfectly in the compartment. There is ample padding: both for protection of the equipment and for the comfort of the wearer.
These polarised aviator sunglasses from Maui JIm put a fetching spin on an old classic. Aviators have always been the best sunglasses style for me to wear, so I was thrilled to review these. The style is timeless, but that doesn’t mean these glasses are just more of the same. Maui Jim have made them with attention to detail; the arms of these glasses are very slim, yet being made of lightweight titanium, they don’t feel fragile.

Jack Wolfskin have a great reputation of delivering great products and well worth their price. I have to say that this is the case for the Thermic One Jacket.

Gtech, experts in home and garden tech, sent us the latest in their cordless trimmer range - the Cordless Hedge Trimmer HT3.0, and the matching Cordless Grass Trimmer GT3.0. It’s getting chilly out, so now isn’t the most fun time of year to be working on the garden, but what better time to test how convenient these really are?
Cordless Hedge Trimmer HT 3.0
Fat Shark is the undisputed leader in FPV goggles and headsets. Their top of the line HDO goggles are brilliant. It is a top-end box style FPV headset that has some excellent features. I feel Fat Shark has paid attention to detail and these goggles are extremely well done. The feel fat shark scout is well built but aren’t overly heavy. The Scout weighs 350 grams including the rechargeable battery.
So, here’s the crane m2 from Zhiyun. This is a gimble that allows you to be as heavy handed and unstable as want you as want when filming, it can hold smart phones, go-pros and other small scale mirrorless cameras as well as offering a large scope for movement to keep the camera steady and level. Operating your camera using buttons on the handle is nice and easy. To use zoom and capture/record you can connect via Bluetooth or use the buttons on the handle which are very responsive and tactile.
