I’m sharing our short staff meeting with the faction leaders for Operation Bad Blood 2021. Every year I organize the largest charity airsoft event on the East Coast. This is our first big airsoft event after the 2020 Pandemic and we have over 500 players from all over the country to attend.

Ulanzi BG-3 Battery Grip Review
This isn’t a selfie-stick. It’s an Ulanzi BG-3 battery grip with a 10,000 mAh battery, that can power your camera or action cam for a whole day of video. It has a USB-A square port and a fast-charge USB-C port that can also be used as a power output port.
8″ long with optional screw-on tripod feet, this can be used as a mini-tripod, as a tripod extension tube, or as a mini selfie stick.

Huusmot wireless mic fails
I’ve been on the lookout for a wireless mic system that could offer the audio performance of my Røde Wireless Go for less. Unfortunately, this is not it. The Huusmot Wireless Lavalier Mic system comes with two UHF wireless transmitters and is half the cost of a Røde Wireless Go. Seems like a bargain but its sound quality disappoints.
While not good enough for video/podcast recording, this budget wireless system would work perfectly fine for live performances and presentations.

Best Headset Under $10: Panasonic vs Koss
A head-to-head review of the Panasonic RP-HT21 and Koss KPH7G, two of the least expensive headphones in their lineup. Both headphones offer decent sound quality for under $10. I wanted to pick up an inexpensive set of headphones for my 12-year-old, who’s trashed some more expensive ones I’ve given her.
Annoyingly the closed-ear Bluetooth headphones she uses are too isolating. She doesn’t hear us when we call her and kids are apt to ignore you anyway; why give them an excuse. These old-school walkman-style earphones are on-ear and allow the user to hear more of the ambient world around them. Plus they’re less appealing to thieves (we’ve lived in New York City and San Francisco so street crime is real).
The Panasonic were the better performers in my audio testing. But the Koss’s lower volume output is much safer for younglings to wear (instead of damaging their hearing long-term with louder noise). In the end, I kept both but gave my daughter the Koss.

$20 Bipod Good or Garbage?
CVLife Bipod M-Lok Review The CVLife BiPod with M-Lok adapter is a budget bipod that was sent to me by CVLife to review. I was frankly surprised it performed well. I was able to print the same 3″ groups at 100yrds as I usually did with a rifle rest or sandbags. The bipod attaches to most standard rifle sling swivel pins. This model comes with an adapter plate that allows the bipod to be attached to a rifle with M-Lok handguards.

VIPHiker is a Scam: Wolfroad laser bore sighter.
*DO NOT BUY VIPHIKER*
I got scammed by a VIPHiker’s Ji Xuan who promised to send bore sighters to 10 of my fans who won the contest giveaway I announced up this summer. After I created my reviews and selected 10 winners, I contacted Ji Xuan multiple times by email. He never replied. I was forced to notify the winners and appologize that their Wolfroad boresighters would not be coming.
This Laser Bore Sighter kit is sold under the VIPHiker and Wolfroad brand names. The model currently sold on Amazon has an activation button and an internal screw-on battery chamber. The product was provided to me by VIPHiker.

Parblo A610 Drawing Tablet
The Parblo A610 is a 6″ x 10″ Digital Drawing Tablet that is feature-rich. We had to replace a similarly priced X-PEN Deco 01 V2 which only lasted us about a year before its USB-C port started to fail (we have to tape down and push in the cable to get it to work now). I certainly hope A610 lasts longer than that. And while Wacom tablets cost 4x as much, all of my Wacom’s still work (though I take a lot greater care of my peripherals than my daughter).

Fyland Picatinny Pistol Rail Adapter
Fyland sent this pistol accessory adapter to review. I tried it out on my 22LR converted Glock 17 and it worked perfectly to allow me to attach a holographic red dot for bullseye precession. And it less than $20, it’s a no-brainer to pick one up if you want to add an optic to a semi-auto pistol with a rail that isn’t pre-drilled for a micro-red dot.
