A couple of weeks ago, I contacted a Riden manager about a device. Things turned out to be a little more complicated with that one, although it’s already on its way to me. But he immediately offered me their new model to review, and I couldn’t say no, since I’ve reviewed pretty much all of their devices.

This is the second product from Baseus sent in for review, and it's a car charger. The idea is interesting, and the specs are great, but "something went wrong," and we'll try to figure out exactly what.

Around the middle of December, I ordered several inverters. I also decided to order a couple from a different store than the one I usually use. Naturally, I read the reviews first, where buyers showed that yes, it really does produce a pure sine wave output. But things turned out not to be so simple.

A couple of months ago, I was browsing AliExpress and came across some interesting power bank cases. What caught my eye was how often I saw them, in all sorts of variations, yet they all shared the same style: a colored cartridge inside a transparent case. Anyway, I ordered one and it arrived.

I’ve reviewed a similar converter before—or at least one that looked very much like it. But in this case, the store says it’s the Second generation, i.e. attempt number two :) So why not take a look and see what it’s all about.

Thanks to one of my regular readers, I got my hands on a WZ5005 voltage converter. I wouldn't say it has anything particularly special going for it, but it could be an alternative to the popular DPS models from RuiDeng. More on that in the review.

Just under four months ago, I published a review of RuiDeng's new RD6012 converter. Now I have the next model in this lineup in my hands: the RD6018, with an output voltage of up to 60 V and a current of up to 18 A. This review will be relatively short, but I'll still try to make it as informative as possible.

For some reason, I rarely review boost converters, and I don't think I've ever reviewed one with this much power. But people often ask me about converters like this, so I bought this one specifically for a review.
