Jimmy took the Onewheel GT for a rented spin around Oahu, and the verdict is clear: more torque, more range, and hill climbing that no longer needs babying. The nose handle, brighter app controlled lights, and an optional treaded tire finally check off years of wishlist items. It's not a clean sweep though, a warning beep too quiet to hear and reports of DOA units and ghosting keep it from perfect, but for anyone cruising under 20 mph, it's a real step up from the XR.
The NAVEE V50 is a budget commuter scooter with a unique handlebar folding mechanism Jimmy and Andrew have never seen before — the handlebars rotate and lock directly into the steering pole, creating a slim, rigid folded profile. Beyond that standout feature, the V50 delivers disc brakes, a sharp landscape display, IP55 water resistance, and a hidden AirTag slot. The criticism list is short but honest: the display scratches easily, the app is a repurposed smart home platform that feels out of place, and the tubed tires are more flat-prone than tubeless alternatives. For budget-conscious commuters who want the most portable, weather-ready scooter in the category, the V50 is well worth a look.
Jimmy spent several weeks putting the OtO Smart Sprinkler through real-world tests in his Colorado yard, tackling brown patches, precision edge watering, drought conditions, and vacation plant care. The verdict: a surprisingly capable targeted watering system that delivers great results without trenches, contractors, or a permanent commitment. It is not a one-unit solution for large properties, and it works best as a precision tool for small to medium spaces, problem zones, and potted plants. For homeowners who want more efficient watering without turning their yard into a construction project, the OtO makes a compelling case to buy.
The Kandi NFL Golf Cart is a four-seat electric cart available in all 32 NFL team wraps, sold through Lowe's and assembled in Texas, and it delivers a surprisingly premium experience for what is essentially a neighborhood cruiser. Andrew and Jimmy were genuinely impressed by the ride quality, feature set, and the sheer fun factor of rolling around in officially licensed team colors. That said, the cart has some real frustrations: most notably a significant throttle dead zone that makes low-speed maneuvering awkward, turn signals that never self-cancel, and storage compartments that offer no security. It is a strong buy for the right person, but they should know the full extent of the rough edges first.
The NOSFET Apex is a legitimate evolution of the Veteran Lynx platform, offering the same proven Leaperkim firmware and motor in a slightly lighter, narrower chassis with one meaningful addition: a DNM air suspension system adjustable from 70mm to 150mm of travel that genuinely works for both street and off road riding. At 85.8 lbs with a 3,200W motor, 151.2V system, and 2,700Wh Samsung 50S battery pack, the specs are strong for the class. The biggest criticism is that the suspension adjustment mechanism on the test unit was difficult (not impossible by any means), but still a frustrating flaw in the wheel's headline feature. Riders who want a EUC that covers both surfaces without buying a dedicated off road machine will find the Apex earns that role, though it comes with some execution gaps (at least on our test unit).
