MUSTOOL X2 Pocket Multimeter Clamp Meter
7-08-2020, 02:37
As it happened, I got my hands on a simple clamp meter, which is what I’ll be reviewing today. I’ll try to keep this brief while still covering the inspection and tests.

Impact Wrench for $28.36, Compatible with Makita Batteries
18-07-2020, 19:55
Banggood is running some promotions right now, with stars to collect, and while browsing I kept coming across this impact wrench at what seemed like a reasonable price. I don't actually need one, but a few times I nearly bought it. I thought it might be useful to someone.

Banggood is running a sale on a range of products. There are plenty of items on offer, but I decided to pick out only those that seem interesting or particularly good value to me. If you're unsure, it's best to double-check.

Someone sent me information about a Banggood sale, so I decided to share it with readers.
Worx Cordless Rotary Hammer, or When All You Have Is a Hammer, Everything Looks Like a Nail
6-11-2018, 15:06
I use power tools often, and it just so happens that quite a few of them are battery-powered. But this is the first time I’ve tested a cordless rotary hammer, so I’m doubly curious to see what it’s like. As usual, we’ll take a look, take it apart, and put it to the test.
Signal level indicator with a VFD display
1-11-2018, 00:36
I have a real soft spot for gadgets with vacuum displays. When I saw something like this in one of the comments, I got excited and decided to buy one for myself. The only difference was that the one I saw had a few extra “bells and whistles,” like a clock and something else, but I just wanted an indicator—and I found one :) A short review of a large indicator with a “warm” display.
Relay module with Ethernet, USB and (unexpectedly) RS485 control
31-10-2018, 17:18
Today I'm reviewing a rather interesting and useful device, if it weren't for a few "buts" that slightly spoiled my overall impression of what is, all things considered, a pretty decent piece of hardware. I'm talking about an eight-channel relay module with remote control over Ethernet.
24 V 3 A Power Supply
30-09-2018, 22:48
Many of my readers know how much I enjoy writing power supply reviews. It’s probably my favorite topic. But today’s review will be a little different from my usual ones—and for good reason, it’ll be short. So, if you’re interested in switching power supplies, come on in.
3-Watt 2820 LED Arrays
28-09-2018, 12:55
This story began quite a while ago. First, about four and a half years ago, I bought several LED lights that had worked pretty well all this time. Then one of them finally failed. Since I didn't want to replace them all, the obvious decision was to repair it and, while I was at it, put together a "repair kit" for the others, which were still working.
Crimp terminals for stranded wire
23-05-2018, 02:31
I periodically need to use stranded cables, and some time ago I even reviewed a crimping tool. But you also need consumables for all that—in other words, the terminals themselves, preferably in different colors as well as different sizes. So I decided to buy this set.
Mean Well IRM-60-24ST power supply, sixth of six
3-04-2018, 16:04
And now it’s the turn of the last, sixth power supply made by Mean Well. I decided to save this one for last, partly because its design stands out from the rest, and partly simply because I liked the way it looks. In any case, I found it interesting to take a closer look, and that’s what I’m going to tell you about today.
Mean Well HDR-100-12N power supply, the fifth of six
31-03-2018, 11:01
I only recently posted a review of the Mean Well HDR-60-12 power supply, and today I'm reviewing its larger "sibling". It's very similar, but it also has a few features of its own. Both power supplies share the same form factor and output voltage—though I'm getting ahead of myself. More on that in the review.
Mean Well HDR-60-12 power supply, the fourth of six
27-03-2018, 17:35
Today I'm reviewing another power supply made by Mean Well. This time, it's a model designed for mounting on a DIN rail. I've already reviewed a similar power supply, but that one was intended for industrial use. This time, I'll show you a more "home-friendly" version. Inspection, schematic, tests—as always.
