Chillmax Air pocket chill

What can I say about this gadget... well I am a big fan of it and I think it is really cool. I would recommend this as it is actually quite a good fan that you can take on the go which is great if you need to travel around or whilst you are stuck in the heat. The battery lasts for a decent amount of time also. it also still works pretty decent without the water if it runs out and your not able to top it up again.

my favourite new gadget is actually and old gadget which I have just recently picked up from eBay which is the incredible Xbox 360 E console!

They reason behind this is the Xbox 360 digital marketplace is closing down this month so I wanted to get my hands on the most recent version of the 360 console which is the “E” model so I could get my hands on any games I wanted before the store shuts for good! I still have my original 360 I had from back in the day but it’s an original model and I already lost one to the red ring of death so I thought better get a newer model than changing my luck!

So far I am super impressed with it and it kind of looks like a smaller better looking version of the launch model Xbox one which was just a disaster for Microsoft lol

So for just over £40 I got my hands on a near mint condition version of the console and I have been having a blast playing it and using it to make content for YouTube also!

Also o have started collecting Xbox 360 games which you can’t play on modern hardware so this is great fun for that too!

I really can’t recommend it enough for a great cheap console to play great games on! Especially arcade style games as the 369 had a ton of them!

So I recently bought the Dyson hot and cold Formaldehyde fan and it’s been an absolute lifesaver. With the weather being super unpredictable I felt like I needed a fan that could both keep me cool in the summer and warm in the winter and I feel like this one does it perfectly.

One of the main reasons for getting the fan as well with the purification element of it I felt like in my flat I had a lot of dust and different types of bacteria in the air and I just wanted a cleaner experience because I kept getting sick and I think it was due to that.

In terms of the actual planet itself, the design of it is so sly and modern and it fits into any room on my flat and because it’s Bladless it makes it less dangerous, I do only live in a one bedroom flat so moving this room to rumours been really really easy and when I do use it it does warm or cool the room up really quickly and it’s nice. I don’t have to put sort of like a heater on where it heats my entire flat, I can do this one room at a time.

Another cool thing about connectivity so I’ve got the app and it lets me control the fan remotely and then also I’ve got it linked up to my Alexa so it’s just super quick easy and simple when it comes to turning it on and turning it off. it also has a automation mode where it can detect when it needs to work harder to clear the air and then it also has a function as well where it will run really quietly and you don’t even hear it on it so quiet

It also has a feature where it can spin and you can do whichever ones you want so you can have it rotate 90° 350° there’s loads of different options.

I really would highly recommend this for anyone looking for all in one solution for heating cooling and air purification. It is on the more expensive side but I feel like it’s so worth it for the year round and the health benefits it provides!

This is my latest tech toy: the Nintendo Poké Ball Plus controller, which works with my Nintendo Switch and smartphone!

It has a small speaker, two buttons, a joystick, an LED indicator, a proximity sensor, and an accelerometer, powered by a rechargeable battery.

Also, it can hold one Pokémon inside. Try to guess who is sitting in mine!

Beryl AX (GL-MT3000) from GL.iNet

At first glance, the Beryl AX (GL-MT3000) from GL.iNet might look like a simple WiFi router, but it's actually a powerful network gadget. It features a 2.5G port, WiFi 6, and offers various operational modes, including failover support and a mobile app. The most significant feature is its OpenWrt OS, allowing the installation of thousands of apps and services such as AdGuard, VPNs, printer servers, and various automation and monitoring tools.

Additionally, it's tiny, affordable, and arguably the best tech I've acquired in 2024! I'm looking forward to finding time to write a full review and create an unboxing video.

I initially bought it for travel, but after exploring its extensive list of features, I have two new projects in mind. I'm so impressed that I plan to contact the company behind it to learn more about their products. I’m excited to share my positive findings with my audience and showcase the potential of this powerful device.
