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.
This is the RGB Color version of the VL49 lightcube (which I previously reviewed). It has a built-in rechargeable battery and can produce the entire color spectrum of color as well as a range of white in color temperature from 2500-9000k.
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).

This is a handy little presentation clicker with an emphasis on tiny. About the size of a whiteboard marker, this has a next and previous slide button, a laser pointer, volume control, and is AAA battery powered. It also comes with a USB-A (that’s the big flat standard USB-A connection) and the newer USB-C connected dongle that fits inside the clicker. Attach the USB dongle to your computer and the clicker connects wireless via Bluetooth as a pseudo-keyboard.
With the miniaturization of action-cams and smart-phones, we no longer really need full-sized SLRs or VideoCams. Smaller, lighter, recording devices means smaller and lighter stands and tripods. I review two popular formats for mini-tripod/photo stands. Ubeesize budget mini-tripod and Elegant selfie-stick tripod. Ideal for travel vloggers and photographers. They have limitations but in a pinch could be used as a photo or video tripod for DSLRs and phones.
VILUX 12×40 compact binoculars. Budget binoculars with some high end features. A step up from smaller 6x or 8x power scopes. Rugged and inexpensive enough to loan out to young kids without too much worry about them getting damaged.
The Harold Import Company (HIC) filter cone is the most basic way to make drip coffee. It’s not an automated process like an electric drip coffee maker but it takes a lot less space and is easier to clean. If you already have a hot water kettle, why buy an additional electric drip coffee maker?
I bought this Sokani UHF Wireless Lavalier transmitter set after reading a number of positive reviews presenting it as a cheaper alternative to the similar Rode Wireless Go. I am experiencing intermittent and random sound glitches. I’m sharing my experiences in hopes to find out if other owners have experienced similar issues.
I contacted Amazon and they send me another unit and it too has the same sound drop-off glitch. With two identical units, I proceeded to rule out the cables and mic as the causes through a process of elimination. But in the end, I believe that BOTH units sent are defective. Asll the more reason to stay away from this brand.
I put together a budget portable solar setup for under $200; pairing the Beleeb 50W solar panel and the Jackery 160 solar generator/battery. These two highly-rated solar products on Amazon but they were not compatible out of the box. I had to find the appropriate cable which wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be to track down the info, so I’m sharing it with you. As an added benefit, this is also one of the most compact 160W solar setup that you can easily fit in the back of a truck cab or even a backpack.
The Gloryfire Electronic Shooting Earmuffs are budget-oriented hearing protection that sport features found on EarPro that costs twice as much. Strikingly similar in physical appearance to Howard Light Impact Sports, their audio performance makes them more than just cheap rip-offs.
