Despite its small size, the cordless PixelDrive delivers an adjustable 0.5-6Nm of torque, which is strong enough for assembling electronics, putting together furniture, and handling most small home repairs. It also offers several useful features, like a unique built-in pixelated display that lets you check battery life and see which of the six torque levels you're using at a glance. A single multi-function button lets you change direction, switch to an 80RPM precision mode for delicate tasks, or boost up to 200RPM with one finger.

This CD player is clearly vintage-inspired, but it has some modern touches. Back in the day, you needed batteries for your CD player, but this one charges through USB-C. Like a classic boom box, the Yintiny has speakers built in, but it also has Bluetooth, so if you have a preferred or higher-quality speaker, you can have the CD's audio play through that instead.

Although the printer may have a USB-C port, it lacks the necessary hardware to support USB-C charging protocols. On a more technical level, the manufacturer opted to save a few cents by omitting some basic components (typically just two resistors, which cost virtually nothing) to accommodate different power inputs. Since USB-C doesn't supply power without first negotiating what the device needs, no power is delivered.

What if there was a super-loud finder tag that had a built-in loop for attaching to a keychain, and a battery that can be recharged using USB-C. That sounds great, right? Also: I tucked a stealthy $15 tracker into my favorite jacket - now I no longer travel without it That's exactly what the Chipolo Loop offers. But there are some gotchas to bear in mind.
