Sound Kick Bluetooth speaker offers affordable, acceptable sound

August 21st, 2012 David No comments
soundfreaq sound kick 1224398 g3 Sound Kick Bluetooth speaker offers affordable, acceptable sound

 

By Lex Friedman, Macworld.com

Soundfreaq’s $100 SFQ-04 sound Kick is a decent portable Bluetooth speaker. Its sound, looks, and features all strike me as acceptable, if unremarkable.

the Sound Kick weighs just 1.6 pounds, and it measures 10.5 inches wide, 4.2 inches tall, and 1.6 inches deep when collapsed. Collapsed? One of the defining features of the unit is that, for portability purposes, it can fold in on itself to that 1.6-inch depth. When you want to listen, you exert some force on the rear of the unit to pull out the back. Once you do that, the Sound Kick sits about 2.5 inches deep. Soundfreaq refers to this extendable section as the XKICK Speaker Chamber.

This extension also acts as a stand for tilting the Sound Kick back for a better listening angle, although the position is a bit precarious—bump the Sound Kick, and it usually returns to the upright position.

The Sound Kick’s body is made of black plastic with a metal grill. On the top sit eight identically-shaped, round, touch-sensitive buttons: previous, play/pause, next, pair, UG3, volume down, volume up, and power. The Pair button, unsurprisingly enough, puts the Sound Kick in Bluetooth-pairing mode; pairing the system was effortless when I tested it with my iPad, iPhone, and Mac.

The UG3 button triggers a proprietary audio mode of the same name. Soundfreaq says it’s meant to “enhance audio separation.” The effect, though artificial, does indeed widen the stereo image noticeably. However, it can also lead to some distortion, especially at louder volumes.

On the rear of the Sound Kick, ports sit at the left and right ends. On the right sits a 1/8-inch (3.5mm) auxiliary-audio input. On the left, there’s the power-adapter connection, a USB port, and a light that reflects the status of the internal rechargeable battery. This indicator isn’t as useful as it ought to be: It glows green when fully charged, red while charging, and blinks when you’re nearly out of juice. A line of lights indicating the amount of remaining charge would be more helpful. Soundfreaq says to expect about seven hours of battery power at moderate volume; I got six with the Sound Kick dialed up fairly loud.

The USB port isn’t for playback. Rather, it’s there to let you charge other devices via USB, even when the Sound Kick is running off its own battery. Of course, charging another device reduces the Sound Kick’s playback time, but it also limits the system’s maximum volume.

A thin status light glows from behind the speaker grill when the Sound Kick is powered on or is in pairing mode. Annoyingly, you also need to rely on that light to determine the status of UG3 mode, since the UG3 button itself doesn’t offer an indication of the current setting—the light flashes once when you turn on UG3 and twice when you turn it off. (It’s possible I got that backwards, which is exactly why it’s a poor indicator.)

Macworld’s buying advice

The Sound Kick’s audio quality isn’t bad, but that’s the highest praise I can offer it. Although the system’s dual 2.3-inch drivers offer decent performance and can get plenty loud, bass presence is negligible. I found that music too often tended to sound a bit thin, lacking the oomph and clarity you’d hear from the $150 (and larger) Logitech Wireless Boombox (). The Sound Kick can certainly get louder than the tinier Jawbone Jambox (), but I prefer the smaller speaker’s audio quality. And the Big Jambox () bests the Sound Kick in both volume and quality. Of course, all these systems are also more expensive than the Sound Kick—in the case of the Big Jambox, three times as pricey—but sometimes you get what you pay for.

These phones are also built with a Dynamic Super bass driver. This driver is meant to properly reproduce that big full sound right inside your ear. You will be able to hear those low, thumping frequencies…again a needed feature if you are to mix music. If you can’t hear the low end how will you mix it down?! No need to worry…the HPS820’s have got you covered!

If you are a DJ or traveling with these phones no need to worry about breaking them…the carrying case will keep them safe and sound and ready for use! Also included is a 1/4” adapter…without this adapter plug these phones into any MP3 player or other component with an 1/8” input or connect the adapter and connect to any 1/4” input. These are the two most valuable and commonly used headphone connection options for the professional audio world!

The HPS820 Professional Headphones from Technical Pro are quickly becoming the benchmark for headphone needs. They are durable, translate a high level of sound and are available at a cost that won’t put you in the poor house!

SOS IN A BOX: PORTABLE SOLAR POWERED BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM

August 12th, 2012 David No comments

Screen Shot 2012 06 26 at 4.13.48 PM 650x489 SOS IN A BOX: PORTABLE SOLAR POWERED BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM

Don’t be sh*t out of luck when a huge disaster or emergency strikes and causes an electricaloutage…which is exactly what Sun Flare Systems hopes to avoid with their SOS in a Box: a totally portable (and ultra-high efficient) solar power generator. It can produce up to 800-2,500 Watts of household electricity on demand for when an emergency strikes. the patent-pendngsolar powered backup generator system provides instant solar electrical power in any outage or disaster so you have a virtually endless supply of electricity.

Screen Shot 2012 06 26 at 4.16.46 PM 650x416 SOS IN A BOX: PORTABLE SOLAR POWERED BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM

The kit consists of three main components that work together to create a very efficient home power plant, including the generator backup, high efficiency solar panel(s)s and the charge controller. The solar kit works better than any gas generator because in an emergency, gas stations can’t pump gas without electricity, so it’s a waste of a generator! Even a few gallons stored in a gas can means a little electricity for a little while before it gives out, which won’t happen with a solar kit like this.

Screen Shot 2012 06 26 at 4.13.39 PM 650x502 SOS IN A BOX: PORTABLE SOLAR POWERED BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM

The Sun Flare Systems SOS in a Box comes in four different models that all provide reliable power when you need it most. Their lowest model is the Marine RV Line for $1,080 that provides 75 Watts of PV power with 25amp MPPT charge controller, with external battery terminals for those consumers who already have their own battery systems and inverters. Their Economy Line sells for $1,348 and features 75 Watts of PV power complete with 800 Watt 110/120 60hz power inverter, 25amp MPPT charge controller, all built in with a 18Amph battery for lite overnight power use. The Commercial Grade is $2,248 and provides double the PVsolar power at 150Watts, 1000watt 110/120 60hz inverter, 25amp MPPT charge controller, and with an increased 36Amph battery, but it’s their Military Grade version that’ll provide the best qualityPrice isn’t listed, which means it’s probably pretty expensive.

Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or Pocket

July 3rd, 2012 David No comments

You want to be organized and prepared when you’re walking around, but you don’t want to lug around 10 pounds of gear and ruin your back with a mega-wallet. These essential carry-around Tools are discrete, super-handy, and oh so brag-worthy.

We’ve previously covered the gear our editors and readers find handy to carry in their “Go bags” and laptop bags, and some of those tools (like a certain USB key) cross into the pocket-worthy realm. Otherwise, we tried to stick to very small tools and printables that do a really good job for this roundup.

10. Foldable Organizer

medium d09061e2fa7040637d986e463eda66d0 Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or PocketThe PocketMod webapp is more than a simple printout maker. It’s an expandable, customizable system for creating an 8-page, super-slim booklet with anything you want on any side. You can track your business mileage on one side while keeping your calendar and important contacts on another, or print out an entirely new pocket stuffed with travel maps and local attractions. Cool stuff, and definitely worth the wallet space. (Original post).

9. compact keychain

small c1b2a98ce836fb98dd9699b7cec72004 Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or PocketIf you’ve only got a few keys, and an eye for something different, you don’t have to go with the typical ring-shaped chain. You really only need washers and a rivet to create a minimalist, quiet keychain. You can take it further by shaping those keys into a mini-Leatherman with a few tools kept in, attaching the rivets onto a money clip, orcrafting your own compact key device.

8. Universal club card

medium 83f96418c82fa7b48e4d3398d7b99fa4 Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or PocketSome stores require them, some stores provide discounts with them, and others offer passive rewards and points for using club/membership cards and bar codes. Combine all of your codes onto a single card with Just One Club Card, or choose between a card and keyring tab at KeyRingThing. Actually, the two sites seem to have gotten together, and now offer combination cards with a nice laminate finish and firm back, so you won’t have to worry about wear, tear, and faint barcodes. We love it when great webapps find each Other. (Original post: Just One Club CardKeyRingThing)

7. Indestructible, keychain-friendly USB drive

 

Maybe you don’t need this exact model, but having a nearly-indestructible USB drive that fits on your keychain is convenient in ways you can’t quite fathom until you’ve added it. You’re almost never without a bit of storage for transferring or grabbing files. If you’re the PortableApps type, you’ve always got a working Firefox/Pidgin/Thunderbird setup handy for being productive on someone else’s system. At the moment, the 4 GB IamaKey sells for $22 directly, so it—or something like it—might make a great recommendation as a last-minute stocking stuffer. (Original post)
 

6. Compact calendar

medium a147ae1d26136e642d3dea045690979f Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or PocketDesigner David Seah has been making “candy bar calendars” for some time now, and his 2010 compact calendar is just as beautifully efficient as ever. His are monthly calendars you line up and customize in Excel. If you’re looking for more of an all-in-one solution, try The Small Calendar 2010from Grafish Designs, or the Thumb Calendar 2010 Design, both of which offer clever ways of peeking at today, tomorrow, and the future from a wallet-sized slip of paper.

5. A baby (or really cute pet) photo

medium c7878bb762ccf1e7ccf84fcf1153f2d5 Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or PocketWallets get lost, left behind, and lifted more often than you’d like to think. If your wallet is more misplaced than stolen, having a very cute baby photo in your wallet, even if it’s not necessarily yours, seems to seriouslyboost your chances of getting it back. A not-too-close backup is having a cute pet picture. As they say in journalism school, every story (and wallet, maybe) needs a dog—or at least a really interesting humanPhoto by °Eli.(Original post).

4. earbud de-tangler

medium f7f3744ed03c9f057e376ed061a7d88c Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or PocketEver pull out your tangled, knotted headphones and wonder if they’re secretly holding gymnastics practice when they’re tucked away? Keep your earbuds, cords, and plugs in place with a de-tangling tool. Our inner stylist loves this laser-cut earbud owland its old-time-y wooden look, but you can also cut something similar from plastic. In fact, you can fashion an earbud holder out of a junk or expired credit card. If you’ve got no room for a single-purpose flat piece, at least train yourself in manual de-tangling methods like the devil horn wrap, thearound-the-player wrap, or get fancy with a daisy chain or chain sinnet style.

3. A darned good pen

medium e5944effbd3badc8634723de9bbd59bf Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or PocketYeah, you still need to write now and again. Whether it’s a credit card receipt scrawl or a note you really want to be able to read later, having a pen that actually makes you want to write is always worth the price. We asked our script-friendly readers what pens they liked, and they came back with impressive results. In describing his trusted PenAgain, for example, Cowboy Bill wrote: “Helps my horrible handwriting. Busted knuckles from nuns’ rulers.” That’s an endorsement from the heart, or at least the memory of hands.

2. Multi-tool, credit-card or standard

medium a38254b2c3b1a438635418c8bf0a9700 Top 10 Essential Tools for Your Wallet, Keychain, or PocketWe agree with Steve Sussex’s assessment of the Leatherman Micra—it’s just as useful to computer geeks as to outdoor types. If carrying an actual knife on your keychain won’t fly with security at work, or you don’t want to clutter it, consider the 11-function, credit-card-sized survival tool, alsorecommended by Cool Tools. You get a ruler, a knife and screwdriver plane that can work in a pinch, and, perhaps most helpfully, a bottle opener you never forget at home. Even if you forget to pull it from your wallet before a flight, it’s only around $5, and a fairly clever conversation starter. (Original posts: Leatherman Micracredit card tool).

1. A backup system

 

The wallet is where you should keep all your essential IDs and cards, but it’s good to have a fallback plan for when you leave it at home, or in the cab. Inspired by a Real Simple article (now dead-linked) on using clear pockets and cords to separate ID badges, Gina wrote up a diet plan and backup system for your wallet, based on her own use of a Slimmy minimalist wallet and just the bare essentials. If you find yourself holding up the line to dig through a virtual filing cabinet of receipts and cards, consider putting your own money holder through boot camp.
