Silly Tech Season 2022
Every year around Fall, phone and camera makers often announce their new gear.  If there is a device that we think could be used in a sports environment, we certainly keep an eye on it.  If we think there is merit, we will buy one and put it through a litany of sanity and torture tests.  We share that data, so you can make more informed purchasing decisions.  So with that in mind, the items below are what we are currently tracking this year.  We try to stay away from...

The short answer is, we thoroughly test all of the devices we recommend. As the HERO9 testing is in process, we thought we would show you the "LynkSpyder Torture Chamber". We modified this standard incubator with internal AC/USB power, thermocouples, and an LCD data screen. The incubator will hold fairly steady temperature from cool-ish to very... Read more...
