Mpow Seashell Bluetooth Headset Review

Mpow Seashell Bluetooth Headphones
Hey there. Time to reach into my Mpow vault and pick out another great set of headphones to try out and review. The awesome thing about headsets is that there is a pair just about everyone. Some like over the ear headsets while others are into the in-ear headphones. In this post, we’re going to look at the in-ear wireless, Mpow Seashell Bluetooth Headset. Our good friends at Mpow were awesome enough to send me a pair to test out and review. After using the headset exclusively for a good week or so, I’m ready to give you guys my honest review. But before I get into my experience, let’s talk specs:

Sound Intone i68 Headphone Headset Review


Hey there. As most of you know, not all over the ear headphones are the same. Some look awesome but sound poorly. Others have great sound quality but their design is a head scratcher. A quick online search will yield plenty of great looking headphones that claim are the best sounding. But once you see that you need to cough up over $100 for them, you second guess that headset. But what if I were to tell you that you can get a great sounding set of headphones that look pretty good? Well… our friends at Sound Intone has you covered! Sound Intone recently provided me the Sound Intone i68 Headphones (Black and Orange) to try out and review. I’ve been using the headphones for the last two weeks and I am now ready to give you guys my review. But before I go into my experience, let’s talk specs.

Sound Intone i65 Headphone Headset Review

Sound Intone i65  Headphones
Loving the sleek design of the Sound Intone i65 Headphones!
Hey there. As most of you know, I’m a huge fan of music. So I listen to music for about 5 hours a day, if not more. This puts me in prime position to test out new headphones for long periods of time so that I can check out what works and what doesn’t. Recently, I’ve been donning the Sound Intone i65 Headphones (Black and Gold) during those long periods of music time. Our good friends Sound Intone provided me with the i65 headset to try out and review. I’ve been using in ear headphones recently so it’s a nice change of pace to use a headband, over the ear cuff headphones. But before I go into my experience, let’s talk specs.

iLike Speed Metal Bluetooth Headphones Review

Hey there.  It's no secret that I love music and I have several sets of headsets/headphones to match the occasion.  I want to lounge around?  I get some super comfy headphones.  I'm going out for a run?  Get the in ear sweat proof headphones.  Doing some work out in the yard?  Get the heavy duty, noise cancelling headphones.  I think that it's amazing the different styles of headphones that are out on the market.  That's why when a company comes to me and asks for my opinion on their headset, I'm super eager to give them a try and see how they compare to some of the others in my collection.  This time, our good friends at OPPO provided me with the OPPO Exclusive iLike Speed Metal Bluetooth Headphones to try out and review.  Though I already have a few sets of lounging around headphones, I was excited to get a pair of the iLike Speed Metal Headphones because it has one of the more unique designs that I have seen.  So lets not waste anymore time, so before I get into my thoughts and experience, let's talk specs.

RFID Blocking Sleeves by BLOCKIT RFID Products Review


Hey there.  Have you ever had your credit card information stolen?  I did.  This was a few years ago when some criminal inserted some kind of card reader into the credit card slot at a gas station and managed to steal my information.  Luckily for me, I was alerted right away by my bank of an unusual purchase attempt.  They noted that I never shopped at said store and found it weird.  I told them that it wasn't me and my card was missing.  It was taken care of immediately and I received a new card.  Even though it was caught quickly, I still had to get a new card number, update all of my card information on forms, and make sure that all of my bills that stored my card number was updated.  It can be a pain to have to deal with.  This was the old school way of getting your credit card information stolen.  Now, some cards have what is called a RFID chip in it.  The RFID allows you to pay for items my simply tapping your card on RFID compatible retail locations.  Many fast food locations, supermarkets, and other high traffic areas have RFID compatible point of sale systems.  In a wireless world, it's the next step in credit card technology... but it's also the next logical step for credit card thieves.  Credit card thieves have resorted to RFID skimming.  Basically, a credit card thief will have a small RFID scanner and attempt to read your credit card information wirelessly.  Essentially, this is digital pick pocketing!!!  This is dangerous.  Especially since the thief doesn't need to physically touch you and only needs to be in close proximity.  How many times are you not close to a stranger?  Think about it.  Standing in line at a store, cramped into a bus or subway, or just walking down a busy street.  Someone with a RFID scanner can EASILY scan your card and you wouldn't even know it happened!  Fear not, though, friends.  You can safeguard yourself against this by using RFID Blocking Sleeves.  Our good friends at BLOCKIT RFID Products sent me two RFID blocking sleeves to try out and review.  Simply put, these things work!  Let me tell you about my experience.

Iron Chest Master by Ron Williams Review


Iron Chest Master by Ron Williams
Time to work on this chest!

Hey there.  One of the things that I wish I had more time for is fitness.  This past year, my fitness routine has suffered.  I don't have time for the gym, I don't have time to go run in the mornings (unless it's during the weekend), and I don't have time to do anything else but work.  Sounds like a bunch of excuses, right?  Well, I thought the same thing!  No excuses!  I have a body, I have arms and legs, have a heart, and I have a determination to get and stay fit!  So...  since time is a factor, I decided that I'm going to try several workout stuffs at home.  I've already had a great start with one hell of a jump rope but that's mainly for cardio.  I need something that's going to help make me look and feel stronger and nothing screams out strength like a well defined chest and arms!  And to help me achieve those results?  The Iron Chest Master by Ron Williams!  Our good friends at Iron Chest Master saw that I needed the workout and sent me the Iron Chest Master by Ron Williams to try out and review!  After a few weeks of building a better upper body, I am ready to give you guys the scoop on this awesome home exercise device!  So let's get right into my experience with this awesome machine!

dBs Live Wireless Stereo Bluetooth Headphones Review

Hey there.  I love a great set of headphones.  I have a set of headphones for all kinds of occasions.  I have a few for running, a few to rock out to at the gym, a set to use while doing yard work, and a set to use while commuting to work.  The best part is that each set is perfect for the task at hand.  The gym headsets get out of my way, the yard work set has awesome noise reduction, and the running headsets stay in my ears and have moisture protection.  I even have one for online work and online gaming!  The only headset that I don't really have is a lounging around in the house just chillin' headset.  That's where Direct Beats Systems (dBs) comes in.  Our good friends at dBs provided me with the dBs Live Wireless Stereo Bluetooth Headphones to try out and review.  And you know what... they couldn't come at a better time.  The dog days of Summer are on their way and I am looking forward to just lounging around and listening to some of my favorite tunes.  But before I get into my experience with these headphones, lets talk specs.

ZhiZhu Solar Panel Charger Portable Power Bank Review

I do all of those things checked off!!!  This Solar Panel Charger was made for people like me!!!
Hey there. I love external battery packs.  I take my trusty battery packs everywhere I go but one of the complaints that I have about them is that if they are not charged, they are of no use.  I need one that will harness the power of the sun!  I need something like this Solar Panel Charger Portable Power Bank by ZhiZhu!  Our good friends at ZhiZhu sent me this one of a kind battery pack to try out and review.  But before I go into my experience with this solar powered battery pack, let's talk specs.

Mens Bodega 8 Piece Tie Bar, Tie Clip Set Review


Mens Bodega Tie Clips
Hey there.  You know, I love my T shirts.  I have plenty of band shirts and video game themes shirts.  My Legend of Zelda Triforce tee is one of my favorites, but there are times when I need to look pretty spiffy.  It turns out that in the past couple of weeks I had a wedding reception and a baptism celebration to attend to.  As most of you know, these are, "look spiffy" events.  I have my fair share of button down shirts and a pretty sizable assortment of ties but what I didn't have was that shine... that final touch that would put the whole outfit together.  This is where my good friends at Mens Bodega stepped up to the plate.  Mens Bodega offers quite a bit of top of the line Men's Fashion accessories and they provided me with their 8 Piece Tie Bar, Tie Clip Set to try out and review.  This won't be a very long post since there is only so much you can say about tie clips so let's get into my experience!

Mpow Swift Bluetooth Headphones Review

Hey there.  I love music and I'm always looking for ways to enhance my music loving ways.  Whether that be getting a sound bar for my TV, getting a great Bluetooth speaker, or getting an awesome set of headphones so that I can listen to music wherever I am.  The thing is, though, that I commute a few hours to work each day and I can't take speakers with me so headphones are what I'm using the most at the moment.  This is why I was extremely thankful to our friends at Mpow for sending me their Mpow Swift Bluetooth Headphones to try out and review.  I've had my fair share of headphones and I've had some great ones and I've had some bad ones.  I can honestly say that Mpow's headsets have not disappointed and I hope that the Swift Blutooth Headphones will follow suit.  So before I get into my experience, let's talk specs.

M2R UFO Bluetooth Speaker Review

Awesome UFO design allows you to hang it against a wall!
Hey there.  You can never have enough Bluetooth speakers.  There are so many designs that you need to test them out to see which ones work best for you.  I've had the privilege to try out small speakers, large speakers, pill looking speakers, and even take me hiking speakers... but I must say that my favorite so far has to be this M2R UFO Bluetooth Speaker.  Our good friends provided me with this Bluetooth speaker to try out and review and it definitely is at the top of my list.  Not only because of the shape, but because of the exceptional sound, booming bass, and... well... because it's a UFO!  lol  Before I fill you in on my experience, let's talk specs.

Uqique Mini Digital Voice Recorder Review


Uqique Mini Digital Voice Recorder
The perfect voice recording device!
Hey there.  Imagine this...  You're in class (or in a meeting) and you're supposed to be paying attention.  No matter how hard you try, there is no way that you take notes on every single thing that was said.  Your hand can only write so fast.  This may not be too much of a problem, but when it's a hour and half long lecture or meeting... you're going to wish you were able to "catch that again."  ESPECIALLY for those of us that need to take minutes during a meeting.  There is so much dialog and so much back and forth that you'll wish you can replay the meeting so that you can write up accurate minutes.  I'm in meeting all the time having a replay of the meeting would be perfect when writing up those minutes!  Well, with the Uqique Mini Digital Voice Recorder, now I can!!!  The awesome people at Uqique provided me with a Mini Digital Voice Recorder so that I can try out and review and let me tell you... I am glad that they did.  Not only has it been extremely in a school/work setting, but it's been extremely useful at home as well.  Before I go into my experience with the Uqique Mini Digital Voice Recorder, let's talk specs.

SizErect Ultra Review

SizErect
I was a bit skeptical when it came to trying out a male enhancement pill to try out and review, especially when there are so many options out there, but I can honestly say that I was quite surprised by how well this works. It doesn't matter if you are a stud in the bedroom or if you need a little help, having a boost to your performance and stamina is always a good thing. Especially when we seem to do more work than play. By the time it's time to play, you'll be so drained that it would take long to get going and completely kill the mood. Well, you can kiss that scenario good bye with these SizErect Ultra pills.

Spry Styles Portable 2 in 1 Charge and Sync Cable Review

Spry Styles 2 in 1 Charge and Sync Cable
Love the compact, take me anywhere, design of this
Spry Styles 2 in 1 Charge and Sync Cable!
Hey there.  I love me some gadgets.  I have all kinds.  Phones, chargers, tablets, cameras, keyboards...  You name it, I probably have one.  The best part is that the majority of them can be charged up by a USB cable.  Those of us with Apple devices use a lightning cable and those of us that use practically everything else end up using a USB cable.  More often than not, it's a micro USB connection.  The problem?  Apple having to use a completely different cable to charge.  It can be a pain having to switch back and forth between cables or even worse, having to use 2 USB ports (one for the lightning cable and one for the micro USB cable).  Well, our friends at Spry Styles has solved that problem for me!  They provided me with this super neat Spry Styles Portable 2 in 1 Charge and Sync Cable that will charge using both a lightning cable port and micro USB port!  It has a compact design that allows you take it anywhere with you and protects the connections to avoid damaging the connections.  Let's jump right into my experience, shall we.

Naturalico Fast Speed Cable Jump Rope Review


Naturalico Fast Speed Jump Rope
Hey there.  I am back into fitness mode!  I had a long time away from fitness due to all my time being spent on home renovations and work.  But I was finally able to carve some time out of my schedule to take care of me.  I've started to run early mornings and I've started to finish off my day with a little jump rope session.  I think jumping rope is an awesome cardio exercise.  It pumps you up, it works out your calves and abs, and if Rocky does it, why not I?  lol  Anyways, I've gone through quite a bit of ropes in my lifetime.   They either ripped, broke, or were not the right length for me.  I always thought that that was just how it was with jump ropes.  You changed them up every year or so.  Especially if you get good use out of it.  Well, my friends, I've been throwing money away on jump ropes all these years.  Our good friends at Naturalico created one hell of a jump rope that will stand the test of time.  It has a high speed cable with 4 high grade metal bearing to help increase speed and RMPs.  It's perfect for cross fit training!  And guess what, they provided me with a Naturalico Fast Speed Cable Jump Rope to review!  So why is this jump rope top tier?  Let me give you my thoughts.

All Natural Caralluma Fimbriata Extract 1000mg Review


Hey there.  It has been almost a full year since I last hit the gym.  Not because I don't want to go, it's just that it has been one extremely eventful year for me that I just have not been able to get back into health mode.  I moved to a new city, commuting further to work (and getting home later), and buying a new house has keep me from carving out the time to exercise and take care of myself.  But now, that's about to change.  Things have begun to settle down and a new gym just opened up down the street from my place.  That means it's time to get back into health mode.  And with that, it's time to stock up on my supplements.  Aside from my multivitamins, I decided that I'm going to help reduce my carb intake.  I can be horrible when it comes to carb consumption and I know that a carb suppressant would be extremely beneficial to someone like me.  That's why I am glad that our good friends at Schwartz Bioresearch sent me an All Natural Caralluma Fimbriata Extract Maximum Strength Carb Blocker and Fat Burner!  I have had a full month's supply now and I am ready to give you my honest opinions so let's get to it.

Apple, Samsung, HTC... Whatever it is... IntelliARMOR has you covered!
Hey there. How many of you guys own a "crackie?"  What?  You're not familiar with the term?  Well, it's what I call a phone with a cracked touch screen.  My brother and I coined that term years ago when I saw his iPhone screen all cracked.  I remember him saying, "This is crackie.  It's like my 3rd crackie."  lol  Man, I have yet to experience a crackie but my brother is not the only one that has had one.  For whatever reason, the iPhones are prone to cracked screens.  So why not reduce the chance of owning a crackie?  And I don't mean by protecting you screen with a flimsy screen protector.  Protect it with an awesome, crystal clear, exceptionally strong, oleophobic (that's water resistant) coating, and super easy to install.  That's right, you need an IntelliGLASS Hardened Glass Screen Protector by IntelliARMOR!  Our friends at IntelliARMOR provided me with an IntelliGLASS Screen Protector for the iPhone 5 to try out and review. AND... just because they are awesome, one lucky winner will be able to select a screen protector of their choice!  They have protectors for iPhone's, Galaxy's, HTC, phones as well as protectors for tablets!  Before we get to the giveaway, let me tell you about my experience.
