  • Small product picture of a wood moisture meter review.

    Water may be the greatest source of life on planet Earth, but it can be the most destructive force on the planet as well. Aside from the obvious hazards posed by water during natural disasters, water can cause extreme damage and pose health risks when it seeps into structures such as offices and homes. Unfortunately, water damage is not always easy to see so we need tools like the Sonin Moisture Test Meter. The moisture testing meter from Sonin is the perfect tool for testing a variety of surfaces from wood and plaster, to carpet and more. This wood moisture meter features a separate contact probe at the end of a 3-foot long coiled cable.

    This make the Sonin moisture meter making it easy to test hard to reach nooks and crannies. Other moisture testing meters exist on the marketplace, but few of them offer the separate probe making them difficult to use in a variety of situations. Even fewer models offer the water alarm that this model has, alerting users immediately to the presence of water. Online reviewers were unanimous in their approval of the Sonin wood moisture meter. All reviewers reported great feedback on the meter, and many of them raved about the separate contact probe and coiled cable system. Users were impressed the units ability to find pockets of moisture and water, both big and small.

  • Small product picture of a backpack blower review.

    Each year as Fall gives way to Winter, millions of leaves fall from trees around the country and turn a once beautiful landscape into one littered with leaves. Homeowner’s everywhere are familiar with the back-breaking labor involved in cleaning up these leaves. If you have a particularly large yard and want to make life easier, the Troy-Bilt Gas Powered Back Pack Blower may be just the tool for the job. This gas powered backpack blower from Troy-Bilt is powered by a 4-cycle 32cc motor with a compression release starting system. The power offered from this back pack blower is capable of producing winds upwards of 150 mph.

    While this model from Troy-Bilt is extremely expensive, it is more powerful than many cordless and corded models. This particular 4 cycle backpack blower model would be a good fit for almost any residential cleanup job. Many online reviewers gave the Troy-Bilt five-stars, not everyone was pleased with it. A small minority were quick to point out that this model could not live up to the wind capacity of 150 mph Troy-Bilt claims is possible, and others had units die on them after one or two uses. Even though the Troy-Bilt backpack leaf blower can out-power many cordless and corded blowers, it is still best suited for residential duties as it lacks the power for commercial work. Those with larger property to cover may find this model particularly useful.

  • Product review of bug zapper racket.

    Insects quickly become public enemy number one during any summer barbecue. Never invited, and seldom welcome, bugs like mosquitoes and flies pester party goers at barbecues big and small. Citronella candles can be useful, but their smell isn’t always welcome by all guests and can have their effectiveness dampened by wind. Bug sprays can also be used, but they often can be nasally offensive as well and can leave the skin feeling sticky and gross. That’s why the Charcoal Companion Amazing Bug Zapper Racket was invented. The electric bug swatter is a handheld bug zapper shaped like a tennis racket.

    The Charcoal Companion Amazing Bug Zapper is build upon the premise of a fly swatter, but has been taken to the next level with an electronic current that runs through the “net” and is activated on contact. Running on two AA batteries, the bug zapper racket is more environmentally friendly than plug in bug zappers and bug sprays. With two child proof safety switches on the handle, the tennis racket bug zapper is safe for use both indoors and out, though caution should always be exercised when using the tool as it is possible to be shocked. The majority of users have found the Charcoal Companion Amazing Bug Zapper to be a blessing at outside events, though a few have bemoaned the use of plastic switches that age quickly and can break, rendering a very useful tool inoperable.
