This week Mark and Matt chat about the Renault Twizy 2 seater electric car.
Matt spent a day reviewing the vehicle last week and today he tells us how he got on with this unique, quirky little vehicle.
Thank you very much to Peter Frost at Bristos in Ipswich for the loan of the Twizy.
Over the past summer months, we’ve been getting lots of fresh air testing electric bikes. With the British Summer just about to give up on us, returning us to the dreary wet days of Autumn, we were just able to squeeze in a review of an electric vehicle which is more comfortable in sunnier climates. We’re talking about the Renault Twizy. Continue reading Renault Twizy – 2 seats, all electric and bags of fun

Over the past few weeks, we have been testing the Nokia Lumia 2520 tablet and Nokia Lumia 630 smart phone. Both excellent devices in their categories; Matt talks to Mark Murphy about them Mark gets hands on.
Nokia have always pushed the envelope with their Lumia devices. Right from the beginning their signature polycarbonate around clear black screens have always given these services a feeling of quality. Now they are owned by Microsoft and the 630 is one of the first devices to be released following being absorbed into the Seattle technology giant.

Continuing on our series of electric bike reviews, we took delivery of a wonderful looking Granite Pro from UK based electric bike manufacturer Batribike. It seems the British company has a very handy card up their sleeves when it comes to building electric bikes, read on to find out.

This week we talk exclusively about the Batribike Granite Pro, a super pedal assisted ebike, with the added feature of a throttle.
We were very impressed by this bike, it was extremely well built, comfortable and the throttle was just an amazing addition for when you want a rest from pedalling, but can happily continue to propel you along at 15mph.
We will be uploading a full review of the Granite Pro in the next couple of days.
I would however like to thank Sue from Batribike for delivering the bike to us personally last week and picking it up again today. It made such a difference having a fully working ebike delivered to our door.
If you are interested in finding out more about Batribike, you can go to their website at http://www.batribike.com or call them on 01427 787774 and don’t forget to tell them Gadget Man referred you 🙂
Here at Gadget Man we are always on the look out for something different, this has taken down the road of reviewing electric bikes, smart watches, flying drones and the like. This week however we have been blown away by a completely different type of gadget. In fact calling it a gadget is probably not enough. This is a proper, functional robotic household appliance, this is the iRobot Roomba 880. Continue reading Make room for the Roomba, your faithful carpet cleaning robot.
